Abstract
Results are presented on the influence of the size of diamond powders and the laser power on the main Raman line. These results show conclusively that there is a consistent and systematic, reversible, downshift with both decrease of powder size, and increase of power. The shift can be explained by local heating of about 500 °C in the extreme case. Its significance applies to interpretation of the alleged “downshifting” of the 1332 cm−1 line in all diamond research. In the future, the grain size, the thermal contact, and the beam power must be carefully monitored in reporting and interpreting any frequency shifts.Keywords
