Nitrogen- and oxygen-containing carbon nanoparticles (O, N-CDs) were prepared by a facile one-step solvothermal method using urea and citric acid precursors. This method is cost-effective and easily scalable, and the resulting O, N-CDs can be used without additional functionalization and sample pretreatment. The structure of O, N-CDs was characterized by TEM, AFM, Raman, UV-vis, and FTIR spectroscopies. The obtained O, N-CDs with a mean diameter of 4.4 nm can be easily dispersed in aqueous solutions. The colloidal aqueous solutions of O, N-CDs show significant photothermal responses under red-IR and radiofrequency (RF) irradiations. The as-prepared O, N-CDs have a bright temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL). PL/PLE spectral maps were shown to be used for temperature evaluation purposes in the range of 30-50 °C. In such a way, the O, N-CDs could be used for biomedicine-related applications such as hyperthermia with simultaneous temperature estimation with PL imaging.
采用尿素和柠檬酸前驱体,通过简便的一步溶剂热法制备了含氮和氧的碳纳米颗粒(O,N-CDs)。该方法具有成本效益且易于扩大规模,所得的O,N-CDs无需额外功能化和样品预处理即可使用。通过透射电子显微镜(TEM)、原子力显微镜(AFM)、拉曼光谱、紫外可见光谱和傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)对O,N-CDs的结构进行了表征。所制备的平均直径为4.4 nm的O,N-CDs能够很容易地分散在水溶液中。O,N-CDs的胶体水溶液在红外和射频(RF)照射下表现出显著的光热响应。所制备的O,N-CDs具有明亮的温度依赖性光致发光(PL)。PL/PLE光谱图可用于30-50°C范围内的温度评估。通过这种方式,O,N-CDs可用于生物医学相关应用,如热疗并同时通过PL成像进行温度估计。
