Abstract We synthesized an ultrapure nano-polycrystalline diamond (NPD) containing very few chemical impurities (<1 ppm). The 13 C concentration of the carbon source was reduced to less than 0.01% by using 12 C-enriched high-purity carbon. The ultrapure NPD was synthesized by direct conversion from graphite under h…

In a typical colloidal CdSe nanocrystal more than 50% of the atoms are located at the surface. These atoms can give rise to electronic traps that can deteriorate the performance of optoelectronic devices made of these nanomaterials. A key challenge in this field is thus to understand with atomistic detail the chemical…
