Abstract

A novel and simple approach for preparing graphene quantum dots surface-passivated by polyethylene glycol (GQDs-PEG) has been developed by a one-pot hydrothermal reaction, using small graphene oxide (GO) sheets and polyethylene glycol (PEG) as starting materials. The prepared GQDs-PEG show excellent luminescence properties, the PL quantum yield of the GQDs-PEG with 360 nm emission was about 28.0%, which was two times higher than the pure GQDs. Interestingly, the GQDs-PEG possess the upconversion photoluminescence (UCPL) properties. Blue PL was clearly shown both under the ultraviolet and 808 nm laser in the fluorescent microscopy images. So the GQDs-PEG may provide a new type of fluorescence and upconversion material for applications in bioscience and energy technology. Especially, the GQDs-PEG showed higher photocurrent generation capability. And their photoelectrode generated an obvious and stable photocurrent under a 808 nm near-infrared (NIR) laser. Due to the low cost and simple method, GQDs-PEG thus provide a cost-effective dopant material for solar energy conversion.

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.
