Activating Room Temperature Long Afterglow of Carbon Dots via Covalent Fixation

Jiang, Kai, Wang, Yuhui, Cai, Congzhong, Lin, Hengwei·2017·Chemistry of Materials

Abstract

The achievement of long afterglow in aqueous solution and as well as with small effects of dissolved oxygen is critical for its applications, but this is still a highly difficult and challenging task. Herein, a novel strategy for facilely preparing room temperature long afterglow material is reported via covalently fixing carbon dots (CDs) onto colloidal nanosilica (nSiO 2 ). The as-obtained materials (named m-CDs@nSiO 2 ) show not only an unexpected long afterglow emission in water dispersion (lifetime as high as 0.703 s) but also with small effects of the dissolved oxygen. Further studies revealed that the observed long afterglow of m-CDs@nSiO 2 possesses a predominant delayed fluorescence nature and mixed with a portion of phosphorescence. Some key knowledge that can be concluded from this study are (i) covalent interaction could be employed as an option to fix and rigidify triplet emission species; (ii) covalent bonds fixation strategy could behave as a better alternative than that of the frequently used hydrogen/halogen bonds for stabilizing triplets, because this benefits in extending the occurrence of long afterglow from only solid to solution/dispersion forms; and (iii) the containing unsaturated bonds (e.g., C═C) on the surface of CDs make them to be self-protection agents from the usual quenching effects of oxygen to the triplets due to their capabilities of reaction with oxygen during the irradiation process. On the basis of the unique long afterglow features of m-CDs@nSiO 2 in water dispersion and oxygen insensitivity, a moisture-related strategy for high-level information protection is proposed and demonstrated.

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.
