Benefits of technology

This patented technology allows for efficient production of small particles made from low cost starting material such as urethane or carbocyanate molecules that can be used to create various types of structures like quantum wells (QW) or conductive polymers. These tiny objects exhibit excellent optical response due to their large surface area per unit weight compared to traditional semiconductors. Additionally, these minute carbon nanopods show strong bonds between them without losing any part when they absorb certain wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation.

Problems solved by technology

This patents describes different ways how small particles called carboxylate salts can be used to create special types of nanosheets made up of tiny crystals known as quantum dots. These techniques allow scientists to study various aspects related to these structures including electronic transport, photosynthesis, catalytic activity, chemical reactions, biological processes like cell growth, gene regulation, cancer treatment, and drug delivery systems.

preparation example Construction

[0032] The invention provides a method for preparing carbon nano-dots with effective broad absorption, comprising the following steps:

[0033] Dissolving urea and polycarboxylates in high-boiling organic solvents, heating and reacting under airtight conditions, obtains carbon nano-dots with effective broad absorption.

[0034] In the present invention, firstly, urea and polycarboxy compounds are dissolved in a high-boiling point organic solvent. In the present invention, the polycarboxy compound is preferably one or more of citric acid, oxalic acid and tartaric acid. The high boiling point organic solvent is preferably one or more of N, N'-dimethylformamide (DMF), N, N'-dimethylacetamide (DMAC) and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) kind.

[0035] Wherein, the present invention has no special limitation on the sources of the urea, the polycarboxy compound and the high-boiling point organic solvent, which are generally commercially available.

[0036] In the present invention, the ma...

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of carbon nanodots with effective wide absorption. The method comprises the following steps: dissolving urea and polycarboxyl compounds in a high-boiling-point organic solvent, and heating under closed conditions to react to obtain the carbon nanodots with effective wide absorption. The carbon nanodots are prepared from the urea and polycarboxyl compounds by using the high-boiling-point solvent; and thus, the preparation method is simple, and the preparation raw materials are cheap. Therefore, the obtained carbon nanodots have effective wide absorption peak in the whole visible light region. In addition, the prepared carbon nanodots have favorable solubility in water and organic solvents, and thus, are convenient for solution processing. Besides, the carbon nanodots have favorable crystallinity, thereby being beneficial to developing photoelectric properties of the carbon nanodots.
