Contribution of Functional Groups to the Raman Spectrum of Nanodiamond Powders

Mochalin, Vadym, Osswald, Sebastian, Gogotsi, Yury·2009·Chemistry of Materials

Abstract

In depth understanding of Raman spectra of carbon nanomaterials led to the extension of this technique from simple carbon allotrope detection (fingerprinting) to analysis of the dimensions and ordering of graphene, graphite and nanotubes. In characterization of nanodiamond powders, which have been attracting attention as one of the most promising carbon nanomaterials, Raman spectroscopy is still mainly used only for detecting the diamond phase because of poor understanding of other spectral features. In this paper, we critically examine different explanations of the broad asymmetric Raman band between 1500 and 1800 cm −1 present in all nanodiamond powders and provide an assignment of the contributing peaks, solving one of the major remaining mysteries in Raman spectroscopy of nanodiamond. By using nanodiamond powders with different and well-controlled surface chemistries, as well as in situ Raman measurements at elevated temperatures, we show that these peaks originate from O−H bending vibrations either from the surface functional groups or adsorbed water with contributions (shoulders) coming from sp 2 carbon and C═O stretching vibrations. The observation of a strong O−H contribution to the Raman spectrum of nanodiamond raises concerns regarding the use of water as a coolant during the Raman spectra acquisition, because water may affect Raman spectra in the wavenumber ranges corresponding to bending and stretching O−H vibrations.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
