Studies of the optical properties of hydrosols of 4-nm detonation nanodiamond particles performed in the 0.2–1.1 μm range have revealed a novel effect, a strong increase of absorption at the edges of the spectral range, and provided its explanation in terms of absorption of radiation by the dimer ch...
