Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology
  • Neutron Scattering

Background:

  • Nanodiamonds (NDs) are synthesized via detonation or laser ablation.
  • Understanding ND structure is crucial for optimizing their applications.
  • ND suspensions exhibit complex aggregation behavior.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the multi-length scale structure of nanodiamonds (NDs) and their aggregates.
  • To characterize the shape and outer shell of ND particles.
  • To understand the role of solvents and hydrogen in ND aggregation.

Main Methods:

  • Ultra-small-angle neutron scattering (USANS) and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS).
  • Contrast variation technique using H2O and deuterated solvents.
  • Analysis using a defined shape model.

Main Results:

  • NDs form aggregates significantly larger than individual particles.
  • ND particles exhibit an ellipsoidal shape.
  • The non-diamond outer shell thickness was determined.

Conclusions:

  • USANS/SANS provide insights into ND aggregation and structure.
  • Characterization of NDs and their aggregates aids in sample preparation.
  • Understanding particle interactions is key to controlling aggregation.
