GRAPHENE-COATED DIAMOND PARTICLES, COMPOSITIONS AND INTERMEDIATE STRUCTURES COMPRISING SAME, AND METHODS OF FORMING GRAPHENE-COATED DIAMOND PARTICLES AND POLYCRYSTALLINE COMPACTS

摘要

Coated diamond particles have solid diamond cores and at least one graphene layer. Methods include coating diamond particles with a charged species and coating the diamond particles with a graphene layer. A composition includes a substance and a plurality of coated diamond particles dispersed within the substance. Each coated diamond particle has a diamond core and at least one graphene layer formed over at least a portion of the diamond core.
