Table 2. Structural data for the GC under different pressures as calculated in this work, including mass density (density), the ratio of the C2 dimer, twofold coordinated atoms (sp), threefold coordinated atoms (sp2), threefold coordinated atoms (sp3), mean bond length (R1), average total coordination number (CN), bulk modulus (B), shear modulus (G) and Young's modulus (E). The theoretical results of bulk diamond are also shown for comparison.
