Abstract

The first application of the high‐pressure–high‐temperature (HPHT) technique for direct production of doped ultrasmall diamonds starting from a one‐component organic precursor is reported. Heavily boron‐doped diamond nanoparticles with a size below 10 nm are produced by HPHT treatment of 9‐borabicyclo [3,3,1]nonane dimer molecules.
