Abstract

The chemical reaction between fluoro−nanodiamond (F−ND) powder, solubilized in o-dichlorobenzene, and a glass surface, functionalized with the silane coupling agent, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES), was found to proceed under heating at 130 °C for 24−40 h and to result in covalent bonding of F−ND particles to a glass substrate, forming a 10−40 nm thick nanocrystalline film. The observed process presents a novel and cost-effective approach to fabrication of diamond coatings on glass by using wet chemistry instead of CVD and can be extended to other materials.
