Characterization of DND-bare and DND-OH. (a) Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy spectra of DND-bare (brown) and DND-OH (red). (b) Zeta potentials of DND-bare (brown; −35.0 ± 0.5 mV) and DND-OH (red; 35.4 ± 5.6 mV). (c) Transmission electron microscope images (scale bar 30 nm) of DND-bare (left) and DND-OH (right). (d) X-ray diffraction spectra of DND-bare (brown) and DND-OH (red). Three peaks corresponding to the (111), (220) and (311) diffraction lines of diamond were observed.
