Popis: | Carbon Dots (CDs) the kind of recently exposed fluorescent nanomaterials have become increasingly popular in the precedent decade due to their distinctive physical and optical properties. Relating to above recognition for the first time we present the synthesis of CDs by cationic surfactant, Cetylpyridinium Bromide (CPB). Due to good carbon content amphiphilicity, and existence of heteroaromatic π system, CPB reveals three advantageous properties including a good carbon source, stabilizing agent, and contributing fluorophore in the CDs system. The as prepared CDs synthesized by hydrothermal technique reveals excellent fluorescent properties having strong green emission at 525 nm when excited over 470 nm. The FTIR results showed the presence of C C, C O, N H, C H and O H bonds. The presence of hydrophilic groups such as carboxyl and hydroxyl groups present on the surface confer them water solubility. The HRTEM results revealed the size of prepared CDs to be in the range of 7–10 nm. The XPS spectrum confirms the presence of Carbon, Oxygen and Nitrogen, suggesting that the CDs have good purity and very little impurities. Latterly CDs were used for the selective and sensitive detection towards Fe2+ ions. Also the as prepared CDs were utilized for real sample analysis. |
