Description

Double-peak fluorescence emission graphene quantum dot, preparation method and adjustment method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of graphene quantum dots, and particularly relates to a double-peak fluorescence emission graphene quantum dot, a preparation method and an adjustment method.
Background
The graphene quantum dot is a novel fluorescent carbon nano material with the size of less than 10nm, and mainly comprises an internal carbon core and a surface functional group. In recent years, due to the advantages of unique fluorescence property, good biocompatibility, nanometer size, high specific surface area, excellent solubility, photobleaching resistance and the like, the graphene quantum dots attract great attention in the fields of biological imaging, analytical sensing, tumor treatment, drug delivery, energy storage and transformation.
In order to explore wider application range of the graphene quantum dots and promote the graphene quantum dots to be industrially and practically applied, researchers focus on preparing the high-quantum-yield graphene quantum dots, the long-wave emission graphene quantum dots and the bi/multimodal fluorescence emission graphene quantum dots by a safe, economic and simple method. The existing preparation methods of graphene quantum dots can be divided into two main categories according to the size of a carbon source precursor: top-down and bottom-up. Patent document CN105565297a discloses a graphene quantum dot prepared by electrochemical oxidation cutting of a carbon fiber tip face and a method thereof, and discloses a method for preparing the graphene quantum dot by electrochemical oxidation, expansion, dissociation and cutting of a microcrystalline graphite sheet layer on the carbon fiber tip face at normal temperature. The prepared graphene quantum dots can be stably dispersed in water, and the particle size distribution is uniform. But the carbon fiber raw material is expensive, the preparation efficiency is low, and the industrial production is difficult. In the method for preparing the graphene quantum dots by the ultraviolet light etching dry method in patent document CN102208755a, the graphene on the mica sheet is etched by ultraviolet light to obtain the graphene quantum dots, but the method is large in energy consumption, harmful to radiation and small in preparation amount. Patent document CN103265020a is a method for macro preparation of graphene quantum dot powder, in which natural crystalline flake graphite is used as a carbon source, the natural crystalline flake graphite is converted into first-order intercalation nano graphite oxide, and then the first-order intercalation nano graphite oxide is further subjected to heat treatment to obtain graphene quantum dot powder, but the preparation process is complex, long in time consumption, serious in pollution, and difficult to regulate and control product properties. In the method for preparing the graphene quantum dots under the coupling effect of the electric field and the ultrasonic field in patent document CN109594097B, graphite is used as a carbon source, an electrolytic cell is placed in the ultrasonic cell, and the graphene quantum dots are prepared under the coupling effect of the electric field and the ultrasonic field. In addition, the graphene quantum dots prepared by the methods are similar to most literature reports and show unimodal fluorescence emission. However, fluorescence sensing with unimodal fluorescence emission graphene quantum dots as the nanoprobe is mainly realized through a linear relationship between the concentration of an analyte and the fluorescence intensity, but the fluorescence intensity of the unimodal fluorescence emission graphene quantum dots is interfered by factors such as local environment change, light source power fluctuation, optical path change and photo-bleaching, and the accuracy of the unimodal fluorescence emission graphene quantum dot nanoprobe is limited to a certain extent.
The ratio type fluorescent probe realizes fluorescent sensing through the linear relation between the concentration of an analyte and the intensity ratio of bimodal fluorescent emission, has certain self-correction on environmental interference, and is more accurate in fluorescent detection. At present, researchers compound graphene quantum dots with fluorescent substances with other fluorescence emission peak positions, such as semiconductor quantum dots, organic dyes, fluorescent proteins and the like, to prepare the double-peak fluorescence emission nano probe. However, the preparation of the composite type bimodal fluorescence emission nanoprobe faces the defects of complex preparation process, organic dye leakage, heavy metal pollution and the like. Therefore, the method for preparing the graphene quantum dots with intrinsic double-peak fluorescence emission has important significance.
In order to prepare graphene quantum dots with intrinsic bimodal fluorescence emission, some research teams adopt organic dyes and the like with intrinsic bimodal fluorescence emission as carbon sources, such as basic fuchsin, calcein and the like. By means of hydrothermal treatment, new fluorescence sites are introduced by hydrothermal carbonization while the fluorescence property of part of the precursor is maintained, and the graphene quantum dots with intrinsic double-peak fluorescence emission are prepared. However, these methods require organic fluorescent dyes as precursors, and the preparation process requires high temperature and high pressure, which is not suitable for large-scale preparation.
