Photoluminescent nanodiamond particles of dynamic synthesis have enhanced photoluminescent properties produced as a result of minimizing the nitrogen content of impurities or imperfections in the nanodiamond lattice and by location of photoluminescent structures on the outer surface of the nanodiamond particles. This inhibits suppression (i.e. inactivity) of emission and enhances the intensity of the emission. This abstract is not to be considered limiting, since other embodiments may deviate from the features described in this abstract.

Enhancement of photoluminescence of nanodiamond particles

Polymer nanocomposites with improved resistance to high energy ionizing radiation. Certain embodiments involve methods for providing a nanocomposite material with resistance to high energy ionizing radiation using nanodiamond, zinc oxide and mixtures of these nanoparticles with other nanoparticles dispersed within the matrix. Other embodiments relate to methods of delivering and dispersing the nanoparticles through the material or a surface layer. Other embodiments include methods of forming chemical bonds between the nanoparticles and the material. This abstract is not to be considered limiting, since other embodiments may deviate from the features described in this abstract.
