Abstract
Functionalized diamondoid clusters exhibit extreme nonlinear optical properties in powder form. With their nonlinearity enabling continuous-wave driven white-light generation is possible. However, powders inherently introduce scattering and other grain size dependent effects, rendering them undesirable for optical applications.
