Electrochemical Preparation of Luminescent Graphene Quantum Dots from Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes

Shinde, Dhanraj B., Pillai, Vijayamohanan K.·2012·Chemistry – A European Journal

Abstract

Green luminescent, graphene quantum dots (GQDs) with a uniform size of 3, 5, and 8.2(±0.3) nm in diameter were prepared electrochemically from MWCNTs in propylene carbonate by using LiClO 4 at 90 °C, whereas similar particles of 23(±2) nm were obtained at 30 °C under identical conditions. Both these sets of GQDs displayed a remarkable quantum efficiency of 6.3 and 5.1 %, respectively. This method offers a novel strategy to synthesise size‐tunable GQDs as evidenced by multiple characterisation techniques like transmission and scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and X‐ray diffraction (XRD). Photoluminescence of these GQDs can be tailored by size variation through a systematic change in key process parameters, like diameter of carbon nanotube, electric field, concentration of supporting electrolyte and temperature. GQDs are promising candidates for a variety of applications, such as biomarkers, nanoelectronic devices and chemosensors due to their unique features, like high photostability, biocompatibility, nontoxicity and tunable solubility in water.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
