โฆ Synopsis
A specific Raman spectrum of carbon spherical shells (onions) synthesized by annealinginduced (T= 1800 K) chipping off the outer carbon layers from 5-nm size diamond particles has been observed. It shows a clearly seen band at 1572 cn-'. Its downshift from the position 1582 cm-' (known for a pure graphite) is interpreted as an influence of shell curvature. The summary contribution of the shells constituting the S-nm diameter onion is estimated. A narrowness (FWHM = 15 cm-') of the first order Raman band of onions together with a dominance of the peak at 2712 cn-' (FWHM =65 cn-') in their second order spectrum point to a high degree of structural perfection of a graphitic network in shells.
