Abstract

Single crystalline diamond nanorods with diameters of 4–8 nm and with lengths up to 200 nm have been synthesized by hydrogen plasma post-treatment of multiwalled carbon nanotubes. The diamond nanorods were identified to have a core-sheath structure with inner core being diamond crystal and outer shell being amorphous carbon. A growth mechanism for the diamond nanorods was proposed.
