Isolated hydrogen and hydrogen pairs in bulk diamond matrix have been studied using density functional theory calculations. The electronic structure and stability of isolated and paired hydrogen defects are investigated at different…
The magnetic and electrical properties of nitrogen doped diamond system have been studied within the framework of a density functional theoretical approach. Spin-polarised calculations reveal that only the nitrogen doped system with…
The bare and hydrogen-covered diamond (100) surfaces were investigated through pseudopotential density-functional calculations within the local-density approximation. Different coverages, ranging from one to two, were considered. These…
Hydrogenated diamond has been regarded as a promising material in electronic device applications, especially in field-effect transistors (FETs). However, the quality of diamond hydrogenation has not yet been established, nor has the…
In the present paper, we investigate the structural, thermodynamic, dynamic, elastic, and electronic properties of doped 2D diamond C$_4$X$_2$ (X = B or N) nanosheets in both AA$'$A$''$ and ABC stacking configurations, by first-principles…
Boron-doped diamond crystals (BDD, C$_{1-x}$B$_{x}$) exhibit exceptional mechanical strength, electronic tunability, and resistance to radiation damage. This makes them promising materials for use in gamma-ray crystal-based light sources.…
Pushing dopant concentrations beyond the solubility limit in semiconductors -- a process known as hyperdoping -- has been demonstrated as an effective strategy for inducing superconductivity in cubic-diamond Si and SiGe materials.…
Diamond is an outstanding semiconductor for extreme electronics, yet reproducible n-type doping remains a long-standing challenge. Here we demonstrate stable n-type single-crystal diamond grown in a single step by a precisely controlled…
In recent years, various forms of nanocrystalline diamond (NCD) have emerged as an attractive group of diamond/graphite mixed-phase materials for a range of applications from electron emission sources to electrodes for neural interfacing.…
Ultra-wide bandgap and the absence of shallow dopants are the major challenges in realizing diamond based electronics. However, the surface functionalization offers an excellent alternative to tune electronic structure of diamonds. Herein,…
The first-principle method of mathematical modeling was used to calculate the structural, electronic, phonon, and other characteristics of the normal metallic phase of hydrogen at a pressure of 500 GPa. It has been shown that metal hydrogen…
Using microwave-assisted plasma chemical vapour deposition (CVD) a layer of Nitrogen doped ultra-nano-crystalline diamond (N-UNCD) is deposited on top of a non-conducting diamond layer, which itself is situated on a Silicon wafer. This…
Boron doped diamond is extensively studied for its use in tribological and electrochemical applications due to its remarkable physical and chemical properties. However, ambient conditions play a major role to its macroscopically observed…
We investigate nonlinear optical absorption in diamond crystals containing high densities of nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers using open-aperture Z-scan measurements with 230 fs laser pulses at 1032 nm, within the transparency window of…
Two novel properties, unique for semiconductors: a negative electron affinity [1-2], and a high p-type surface electrical conductivity [3-4], were discovered in diamond at the end of the last century. Both properties appear when the diamond…
Prior studies on the effects of surface chemistry of detonation nanodiamonds (DNDs) on Hydrogen Bonds (HBs) of water have not unambiguously distinguished among three broad categories of HBs: water-site HBs (HB$^{(s)}$), water-water HBs in…
Hydrothermal synthesis offers an economical and scalable way to produce nanodiamonds under relatively mild, low-pressure and low-temperature conditions. However,its sustainability and the detailed mechanisms behind diamond formation in such…
This study reveals a previously unreported phenomenon: elastic softening of synthetic diamonds at temperatures below 1 K. We present ultrasonic measurements on single-crystalline, non-irradiated synthetic diamonds--namely, type-IIa…
Diamond is a material that offers potential in numerous device applications. In particular, highly boron doped diamond is attractive due to its superconductivity and high Young's Modulus. The fabrication of stable, low resistance, ohmic…
The structure of the material responsible for the room temperature and near ambient pressure superconductivity reported in an N-doped lutetium hydride [Nature, 615, 244 (2023)] has not been conclusively determined. Herein, density…
