Abstract
Multiple emissive carbon dots (CDs) were synthesized through a one-step solvothermal acid-assisted method using citric acid and urea. Three main emission bands were observed at ∼431 nm, ∼501 nm, and ∼622 nm, corresponding to excitation wavelengths of 360 nm, 430 nm, and 550 nm, respectively. Simultaneous detection through salient discernible features of three metal ions has been achieved. Emission of CDs with Fe(III) shows reduction in intensity at 360 nm and 550 nm wavelengths and an enhancement of photoluminescence (PL) intensity at an excitation wavelength of 430 nm. Al(III) revealed turn-on PL signals, along with a redshift when excited at 360 and 430 nm, and turn-off intensity at excitation of 550 nm. Under all the excitation wavelengths, Cr(VI) exhibits PL quenching accompanied with an additional red shift. This sensor enhances the accuracy and reliability of the probe through multiple distinctive and characteristic responses for all the three ions for which the probes were selective. Apart from the optical detection at a certain wavelength, the Cr(VI) reduction to the less toxic Cr(III) through as-prepared CDs could be monitored at three different excitation wavelengths. The Fe(III) and Cr(VI) detection in solid state has also been demonstrated through 2D luminescent photonic structures formed with CDs-PVA (poly-vinyl alcohol)-polyNIPAM (poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)) composites that can possibly be used for anticounterfeiting applications.
期刊介绍:
Optical Materials has an open access mirror journal Optical Materials: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.
The purpose of Optical Materials is to provide a means of communication and technology transfer between researchers who are interested in materials for potential device applications. The journal publishes original papers and review articles on the design, synthesis, characterisation and applications of optical materials.
OPTICAL MATERIALS focuses on:
• Optical Properties of Material Systems;
• The Materials Aspects of Optical Phenomena;
• The Materials Aspects of Devices and Applications.
Authors can submit separate research elements describing their data to Data in Brief and methods to Methods X.
