To fill the SWCNTs, as-synthesized SWCNTs first need to be opened. Typical opening procedures however include harsh (mechanical or chemical) steps, such as strong acid oxidation, grinding, and sonication, which cut the SWCNTs into much shorter segments. While SWCNTs can be synthesized with lengths up to several micrometers, opened SWCNTs typically show maximum lengths of only a few hundred nanometers, limiting their use for filling with long, one-dimensional arrays of molecules or studying the transport of molecules through their hollow core. Here, we present a mild opening procedure to achieve open, yet long SWCNTs. By comparing different processing steps in their ability to open SWCNTs without significantly reducing the SWCNT length, we present a simple three-step procedure including an air oxidation, a mild acidic treatment, and a high-temperature vacuum annealing, resulting in nearly complete opening of all SWCNTs in a sample, independent of the SWCNT chiral structure and diameter. The procedure has been applied to different SWCNT starting batches to confirm its general applicability. While the opening of SWCNTs is characterized by optical spectroscopy after water filling, statistical SWCNT length distributions are obtained through atomic force microscopy and hyperspectral photoluminescence imaging of SWCNTs. Our results demonstrate that mechanical steps, such as grinding and sonication, can be strictly avoided to obtain a significant fraction of opened SWCNTs with longer lengths.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":52629,"journal":{"name":"Carbon Trends","volume":"18 ","pages":"Article 100439"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143160303","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Soot is a principal material determining sumi ink quality. Hand-made soot from rapeseed oil (lampblack) is still used in traditional Nara sumi instead of mass-produced carbon black. However, currently only one manufacturer continues to produce lampblack, and the artisan's production rules of thumb have not been scientifically studied. This study aims to clarify the effect of flame size variation on soot particle size, the most important rule of thumb in Nara sumi production. High-quality soot purportedly has a smaller particle size and can be generated from a smaller flame. We used three wick sizes to generate different sized flames and measured the particle size distribution of generated soot. The resulting soot particle size was found to increase as the flame increased. To additionally identify the flame area contributing to soot formation, a 2D analysis was conducted on the morphology and chemical state of soot collected from various heights within a rapeseed oil flame. The results show that soot formation progress is limited to the innermost zone of the flame, and only surface oxidation occurs in the middle zone and beyond. Soot transfer from the innermost to the middle zone was considered to be important in soot formation, based on both the morphology and chemical state changing rapidly and greatly at their boundary. These findings can help to preserve the knowledge for the traditional craft and Japanese cultural heritage.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":52629,"journal":{"name":"Carbon Trends","volume":"18 ","pages":"Article 100433"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143159058","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional analytical techniques often involve toxic elements or complex devices. Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) have emerged as a promising alternative for optic ion detection due to their unique properties and compatibility with living organisms. This study focuses on synthesizing and functionalizing CQDs with various heteroatoms (N, S) to enhance their optical properties and ion selectivity. CQDs were synthesized using citric acid as the carbon source and modified with <span>l</span>-cysteine, ethylenediamine, and diethylenetriamine. The structural and optical properties of the CQDs were determined using several techniques, including FT-IR, TEM, UV–Vis, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy. The results indicate that doping with heteroatoms significantly alters the absorption and emission properties of CQDs. Particularly, nitrogen-doped CQDs (N<img>CQDs) exhibited the highest absorption and emission intensities, making them ideal for sensor applications. The study also demonstrated that functionalization with sulfur could modulate emission frequencies, enhancing the detection capabilities for specific ions. Fluorescence quenching studies revealed that N<img>CQDs and S-CQDs have a high selectivity for Hg²⁺ ions, attributed both electrostatic and covalent interactions formed between the CQDs and Hg²⁺. Computational studies supported these findings, showing that the interaction with Hg²⁺ significantly affects the energy gap of the CQDs, enhancing their sensitivity.
