| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Nanodiamond(ND) has received increasing attention for its promising biomedical applications. The fluorescence of ND can be substantially enhanced when vacancy is introduce by high-energy particle beam and then annealing to form negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy centers. In this project bright color center in diamond was explored by low-dose ion implantation.
To create fluorescent SiV center, He and Si were co-implanted to commercially available ND. However, trace of SiV center was not detected in regular implantation and annealing conditions. This is probably because the formation of NV due to the originally contaminated nitrogen may humper the creation of SiV center. Considering from these results, single- and polycrystalline diamonds were chosen. As a result, the key techniques concerning the color center associated with vacancy in diamond have been developed and the possible avenues have been introduced for their application to biomedicine.
