Optical Properties of Quantum Dots with a Core–Multishell Structure
摘要： In the last decade, colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals (quantum dots) have been not only studied fundamentally but also applied in photovoltaics, optoelectronics, and biomedicine. Beginning with simple approaches to the deposition of protective shells, e.g., ZnS on CdSe cores, searches for ways to increase the quantum yield of photoluminescence of quantum dots have resulted now in the development of new types of quantum dots characterized not only by record high extinction coefficients but also by high photoluminescence quantum yields. In this work, the optical properties of core–multishell quantum dots have been analyzed. These quantum dots have been specially designed to reach the maximum possible localization of excited charge carriers inside luminescent cores, which makes it possible to reach a photoluminescence quantum yield close to 100%. Core–multishell quantum dot samples with a shell thickness of 3–7 monolayers have been fabricated. Changes in the characteristics of optical transitions in such quantum dots with an increase in the number of layers of the shell have been studied. The effect of the thickness of the shell on the optical properties of prepared quantum dots has been analyzed. In particular, analysis of photoluminescence lifetimes of such quantum dots has revealed a possible alternative mechanism of radiation of core–multishell quantum dots based on the slow charge carrier transfer from the excited outer layer of the CdS shell to the CdSe core.

Graphene quantum dots nanoparticles changed the rheological properties of hydrophilic gels (carbopol)
摘要： Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have special properties at nanosize zone, as highly tunable photoluminescence, electrochemiluminescence and multiphoton excitation, that make them promising nanoagents for drug delivery systems. In this direction the use of gels to formulate nanodrugs, for both in vitro and in vivo assay is required. However, the presence of GQDs nanoparticles may affect the rheological parameters. These changes may influence the biological behavior of this formulation as change the pharmacological application. In this study we evaluated the effect of adding GQDs to carbopol gels formulation, in terms of rheological properties. In this direction, carbopol gels alone and loaded with GQDs were studied. The results of pure carbopol formulation showed a non-Newtonian, pseudo-plastic fluid without thixotropic behavior. Otherwise, the presence of GQDs in the carbopol formulation (carbopol loaded with GQDs) caused a reduction on the viscosity and modified the interactions between the polymer chains leading to the transformation of the initial gel into a viscous fluid. This alteration can change drastically the use of these formulations, especially for drug delivery, since slightly changes in viscosity can influence the occlusion, retention and permeability of these nanoparticles into biological barriers.

摘要： The amine decorated carbon quantum dots (NH2-CQDs) were synthesized through ultrasonic method from graphite rods derived CQDs and ammonia hydroxide and utilized as the sensing probes for cobalt (II) ions and nucleic acids. The sensing technique was investigated to be the fluorescence quenching effect, which demonstrated linear relationship between cobalt (II) ions concentration and the emission intensity deviation ratio in the concentration range of 50 nM to 40 μM with the detection limit of 12 nM. In brief, this sensitive and selective detection method was confirmed to demonstrate high potential in cobalt (II) ions detection in real samples and nucleic acid sensing in biological cells.

Facile preparation of boron and nitrogen co-doped green emission carbon quantum dots for detection of permanganate and captopril
摘要： A hydrothermal strategy for preparing boron and nitrogen co-doped carbon quantum dots was studied using the precursors of p-amino salicylic acid, boric acid and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate. The boron and nitrogen co-doped carbon quantum dots have high fluorescence intensity, good monodispersity, high stability, superior water solubility, and a fluorescence quantum yield of 19.6%. Their average size is 5 nm. Their maximum excitation and emission wavelengths are 380 nm and 520 nm, respectively. Permanganate (MnO4-) quenched boron and nitrogen co-doped carbon quantum dots fluorescence through inner filter effect and static quenching effects. The linear relation between quenching efficiency and MnO4- concentration ranged from 0.05 to 60 μmol/L with a detection limit of 13 nmol/L. In the presence of captopril, MnO4- was reduced to Mn2+ and the fluorescence of boron and nitrogen co-doped carbon quantum dots was recovered. The linear range between recovery and captopril concentration was from 0.1 to 60 μmol/L. The limit of detection was 0.03 μmol/L. The developed method can be employed as a sensitive fluorescence sensing platform for MnO4-. It has been successfully used for captopril detection in mouse plasma.

Quantum Yield Enhancement in Graphene Quantum Dots via Esterification with Benzyl Alcohol
摘要： The quantum yield of graphene quantum dots was enhanced by restriction of the rotation and vibration of surface functional groups on the edges of the graphene quantum dots via esterification with benzyl alcohol; this enhancement is crucial for the widespread application of graphene quantum dots in light-harvesting devices and optoelectronics. The obtained graphene quantum dots with highly graphene-stacked structures are understood to participate in π–π interactions with adjacent aromatic rings of the benzylic ester on the edges of the graphene quantum dots, thus impeding the nonradiative recombination process in graphene quantum dots. Furthermore, the crude graphene quantum dots were in a gel-like solid form and showed white luminescence under blue light illumination. Our results show the potential for improving the photophysical properties of nanomaterials, such as the quantum yield and band-gap energy for emission, by controlling the functional groups on the surface of graphene quantum dots through an organic modification approach.

The Application of Green-Synthesis-Derived Carbon Quantum Dots to Bioimaging and the Analysis of Mercury(II)
摘要： Ginkgo leaves were used as precursors for the hydrothermal synthesis of carbon quantum dots (CQDs), which were subsequently characterized by transmission electron microscopy as well as Fourier-transform infrared, X-ray powder di?raction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The prepared CQDs exhibited a ?uorescence quantum yield of 11% and superior water solubility and ?uorescence stability, as well as low cytotoxicities and excellent biocompatibilities with A549 and HeLa cells; these CQDs were also used to bioimage HeLa cells. Moreover, owing to the experimental observation that Hg2+ quenches the ?uorescence of the CQDs in a speci?c and sensitive manner, we developed a method for the detection of Hg2+ using this ?uorescence sensor. The sensor exhibited a linear range for Hg2+ of 0.50–20 μM, with an excellent coe?cient of determination (R2 ? 0.9966) and limit of detection (12.4 nM). In practice, the proposed method was shown to be highly selective and sensitive for the monitoring of Hg2+ in lake water and serum samples.

Cell viability assessments of green synthesized water-soluble AgInS <sub/>2</sub> /ZnS core/shell quantum dots against different cancer cell lines
摘要： Chalcopyrite quantum dots (QDs) have emerged as a safe alternative to cadmium-based QDs for bio-applications. However, the research on AgInS2 chalcopyrite QDs has not been widely explored in terms of their toxicity. Herein, we report a synthesis of biocompatible AgInS2/ZnS QDs via a greener approach. The emission intensity of the as-synthesized AgInS2 core QDs was enhanced 2-fold after the ZnS shell growth. X-ray diffraction revealed the tetragonal crystal structure of QDs, and high-resolution transmission electron microscope images show that the QDs are spherical in shape and crystalline in nature. Cell viability assays conducted on different cell lines, such as HeLa, A549, and BHK-21 cells, indicated that AgInS2/ZnS QDs are least toxic at a QD concentration range of 100 lg/mL. The ?uorescent microscope analysis of A549 cells incubated with AgInS2/ZnS QDs shows that the QDs were accumulated in the cell membranes. The as-synthesized AgInS2/ZnS QDs are less toxic and eco-friendly, and can be used for biolabeling.

Enhancing photoluminescence of carbon quantum dots doped PVA films with randomly dispersed silica microspheres
摘要： As a kind of excellent photoluminescent material, carbon quantum dots have been extensively studied in many fields, including biomedical applications and optoelectronic devices. They have been dispersed in polymer matrices to form luminescent films which can be used in LEDs, displays, sensors, etc. Owing to the total internal reflection at the flat polymer/air interfaces, a significant portion of the emitted light are trapped and dissipated. In this paper, we fabricate free standing flexible PVA films with photoluminescent carbon quantum dots embedded in them. We disperse silica microspheres at the film surfaces to couple out the total internal reflection. The effects of sphere densities and diameters on the enhancement of photoluminescence are experimentally investigated with a homemade microscope. The enhancement of fluorescence intensity is as high as 1.83 when the film is fully covered by spheres of 0.86 μm diameter. It is worth noting that the light extraction originates from rather the scattering of individual spheres than the diffraction of ordered arrays. The mechanism of scattering is confirmed by numerical simulations. The simulated results show that the evanescent wave at the flat PVA/air interface can be effectively scattered out of the film.

A novel fluorescent probe for H2O2 detection based on CdSe@ZnS quantum dots/Ag nanocluster hybrid
摘要： The selective and quantitative detection of H2O2 is important for its employment in physiological, environmental and industrial applications. In this paper, a sensitive and selective strategy for H2O2 detection was established based on the fluorescence quenching of CdSe@ZnS quantum dots (QDs) by H2O2-mediated etching process of Ag nanoclusters (AgNCs). In this strategy, dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) modified AgNCs were applied as H2O2 response group, the existence of H2O2 could initiate the oxidation of AgNCs and the production of Ag+, which could give rise to the effective fluorescence quenching of CdSe@ZnS QDs. Based on this strategy, the present fluorescent assay could realize the quantificational detection of H2O2 and the limit of detection is calculated to be 0.3 mM under the optimum conditions. Furthermore, CdSe@ZnS/AgNCs hybrid-based probe was applied to detecting H2O2 in milk samples and showed a good recoveries results ranged from 95.8% to 112.0%, meaning the potential applicability of this strategy.

摘要： The ability to be mixed with the polymers is very important for applications of perovskite quantum dots (QDs), such as in display, lighting and so on. Here, a method for fabricating a thin film composed of CsPbBr3 QDs and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) was reported. By using the ethyl acetate, a large number of ligands on the surface were removed and the combination with polymers can realize. Based on the thin film, an LED device was assembled and its luminous flux, luminous efficiency, color temperature and CIE color coordinates were measured. What’s more, the thin film revealed a splendid stability after being stored for 42 days without any protection, which show the broad prospects of it.
