A Molecular Route from Nanographene to Nanodiamonds
May 26, 2026
Featured Articles, Bottom-Up Synthesis of Molecular Nanodiamond from Nanographene, Nature 2026, 655, 102.
Nanodiamonds are emerging materials for quantum sensing, bioimaging, single-photon emission, and quantum information technologies. However, the synthesis of ultrasmall nanodiamonds with precise control over size, crystallinity, and defect incorporation has remained a long-standing challenge.
