Abstract :
This work presents the novel ideas of engineered surfaces of multifunctional and molecular diamond for immobilization of bio-molecules as viable and potential platforms. The present paper aimed to introduce novel concept and novel forms of diamond for biosensing applications including ultra dispersed diamond (powder) and ultra-nanocrystalline diamond (thin film deposited on Si). Several types of studies were performed to determine the fluorescence and chemical modification of the diamond surfaces.
