Mexican researchers at the University of Nueva Leon have discovered a new way to make a type of synthetic diamond Using tequila!

 

The scientists found that when the potent Mexican spirit is heated under pressure, it produces diamond structures, which are able to conduct electricity.

 

The crystals used to make diamond film have previously been made from a number of different chemicals, often including nitrogen. However, the experiment is believed to be the first time that researchers have proved that any type of alcohol can be used to produce synthetic diamond.

 

Diamond film is tougher than silicon, so it could be useful for devices that must operate at high temperatures or under other harsh conditions. However, diamond films are expensive and difficult to make.

 

Now, researchers from Mexico have shown that the crystals can be created by heating the country..........

I've always known tequila could make you see diamonds (among other things) but I never thought you could make diamonds from it:hihi:
