Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of functional inorganic nanocrystal surface modification, and relates to a method for transferring oil-soluble up-conversion nanocrystals to an aqueous phase so as to improve the biocompatibility of the up-conversion nanocrystals. The method comprises the following steps of: dissolving 0.02 to 0.2g of small molecular surfactant in 10 to 20ml of water in a room temperature open system; and adding 1 to 4 ml of up-conversion nanocrystal solution prepared by dissolving up-conversion nanocrystals in a low boiling point organic solvent, and heating to the temperature of between 55 and 80DEG C to volatilize the organic solvent so as to obtain the water-soluble up-conversion nanocrystals. By lyophobic-lyophobic interaction of the small molecular surfactant and ligands on the surfaces of the up-conversion nanocrystals, stable coating layers are formed, and the hydrophobicity of the surfaces of the nanocrystals is changed to hydrophilcity. The method is easy and convenient to implement; different surfactants can be introduced according to requirements; a problem that the up-conversion nanocrystals are hardly transferred from the oil phase to the aqueous phase is solved; and the method provides a reaction platform for coupling the up-conversion nanocrystals with biomolecules and other materials.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of surface modification of functional inorganic nanocrystals, and in particular relates to a universal method for transferring oil-soluble up-conversion nanocrystals to a water phase, thereby increasing the biocompatibility of the up-conversion nanocrystals. Background technique [0002] Up-converting nanocrystals have unique optical properties, can absorb two or more low-energy photons, and excite one high-energy photon, so they have become a hot spot in the research of new materials and are used in many basic research fields, such as solid-state lasers, Light emitting devices, biological probes, biological testing, low-density infrared imaging, etc. However, the surface of the up-converting nanocrystals prepared by the existing technology is covered with hydrophobic alkyl chains, and can only be dispersed in non-polar solvents such as toluene and chloroform, so as to realize the further application of such...
