We demonstrate that isolated copper atoms can be bound to the four-coordinated surface nitrogen sites of a diamond lattice fully terminated by atomic hydrogen. This bonding is related to the ability of surface nitrogen sites to donate unpaired electrons (from an antibonding orbital) to third alien surface agents.
