Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing yellow or green carbon dots. The method comprises the following steps: (1) dispersing a carbon source, a passivator and a reducer into ultrapure water, and stirring under the protection of protective gas to obtain a mixed solution; (2) performing heating reaction on the mixed solution obtained in the step (1) in a reaction container to obtain a carbondot solution; and (3) directly placing the carbon dot solution obtained in the step (2) into an ultrafiltration pipe or mixing the carbon dot solution and an organic reagent, and then centrifuging and drying to obtain the solid carbon dots. Based on the synergistic effect of the passivator and the reducer, the green or yellow carbon dots with high quantum yield are further synthesized by a simpleaqueous phase method, the carbon dots with different emitting wavelength can be synthesized by adjusting the mass ratio of the carbon source to the passivator to the reducer, the quantum yield of thegreen carbon dots is 22.5 percent and the quantum yield of the yellow carbon dots is 18.4 percent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nanometer materials, and more specifically relates to a method for preparing yellow or green carbon dots. Background technique [0002] Carbon quantum dots (i.e., carbon dots) are a new type of carbon nanomaterials. Compared with traditional semiconductor quantum dots and organic dyes, they have the advantages of low toxicity, good biocompatibility, adjustable luminous range, and easy functionalization. It has broad application prospects in the fields of biomedicine, optoelectronics, catalysis and sensing. There are various methods for preparing carbon dots, but most of the methods synthesized are carbon dots with blue fluorescence. Due to the poor penetration of short-wavelength (blue) carbon dots to tissues, the optical imaging of deep tissues in the body is limited. In addition, almost all biological tissues produce autofluorescence for short-wavelength visible light, which interferes with the imaging...
