Solvent-dependent red emissive carbon dots and their applications in sensing and solid-state luminescence
Herein, a kind of red emissive carbon dots (BNCDs) based on 1,1′-binaphthyl-2,2′-diamine (BNDM) and citric acid as carbon source were prepared through one-pot solvothermal method . The synthesized BNCDs have uniform size distribution, photobleaching resistance, and excitation wavelength-independent emission performance with the optimal fluorescence at λ ex /λ em = 540/603 nm. The composite films of BNCDs in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) matrix exhibited bright red emission under ultraviolet irradiation , indicating their potential in solid-state luminescence. Also, BNCDs shows unique solvent-dependent phenomenon, the optical behavior can be tuned by the change of solvent polarity. Another striking observation was that BNCDs can be applied as a fluorescence sensor for highly sensitive quantitative detection of trace water in organic solvents because it’s polarity-sensitive property. Through fluorescence “on–off–on” mechanism, BNCDs could be used as a fluorescence sensor for detection of Fe 3+ and F - with LOD of 0.219 and 0.0104 μmol L −1 , respectively. This strategy offers an efficient approach for preparing red emissive carbon dots and lays a foundation for its multi-functional application.
