HRTEM IMAGE Average grain size: 4.3 nm High homogeneity High surface activity (high agglutination) XRD SPECTRUM 03-065-0537 Diamond, syn CFWHM(30): 1.59 °Crystallite Size (Scherrer): 43.4 A I/Icor: 1.1 System: Cubic Space group: Fd-3m (227) Cell param.: Initial Final A: 3.56691 3.56775 RAMAN SPECTRA Excitation 488 nm, power 1mW (Witec) EPR SPECTRA Comparing with detonation nanodiamonds, nanodiamonds produced by laser synthesis (RayND) demonstrate enhanced paramagnetism, increased amount of RPC and stronger anti-ferromagnetic exchange interaction between these RPC. THERMO-GRAVIMETRIC ANALYSIS The change of mass in the process of burning. RayND (left) are more homogeneous both geometrically and chemically, than detonation nanodiamonds of high quality (right).
