Enhancing the luminescence of carbon dots with a reduction pathway.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Blue luminescent reduced state carbon dots were prepared by reducing carbon dots with NaBH(4). The quantum yield of the reduced state carbon dots increased from 2% to 24% and the maximum emission wavelength shifted from 520 to 450 nm. This offers a simple pathway to enhance the luminescence of carbon dots.

متن کاملCo-reductive fabrication of carbon nanodots with high quantum yield for bioimaging of bacteria
A simple and straightforward synthetic approach for carbon nanodots (C-dots) is proposed. The strategy is based on a one-step hydrothermal chemical reduction with thiourea and urea, leading to high quantum yield C-dots. The obtained C-dots are well-dispersed with a uniform size and a graphite-like structure. A synergistic reduction mechanism was investigated using Fourier transform infrared spe...

متن کاملAn aptasensor based on electrosynthesized conducting polymers, Cu2O–carbon dots and biosynthesized gold nanoparticles, for monitoring carcinoembryonic antigen
Current work proposes an inimitable composite, with great electrical conductivity and quite enhanced surface area, (including conducting polymers (poly (cathechol)), Cu2O–carbon dots and green synthesized gold nanoparticles) for detecting acute carcinoembryonic antigen. At current work, the electropolymerization was offered instead of enzyme-catalyzed polymerization of poly (catechol). <b...
