Fig. 1. Physicochemical characterization of nanodiamond particles. TEM and AFM images of (a) aminated nanodiamonds and (b) pristine nanodiamonds. (c) FTIR spectra of nanodiamonds (red spectra: aminated nanodiamonds; blue spectra: pristine nanodiamonds). High-resolution XPS spectra of C, O and N for (d) aminated nanodiamonds and (e) pristine nanodiamonds. (f) XRD spectra for aminated and pristine nanodiamonds.
