Umbrella-shaped diamond nanostructures make efficient photon collectors: Tiny, luminescent nanostructures may prove to be useful in highly sensitive magnetic sensors or within the realm of quantum computing

By tweaking the shape of the diamond nanostructures into the form of tiny umbrellas, researchers experimentally showed that the fluorescence intensity of their structures was three to five times greater than that of bulk diamond.
