Carbon Quantum Dots (CQD) 420 nm
Carbon Quantum Dots are semiconductor particles with spherical morphology and diameter less than 10 nm. Carbon Quantum Dots have excellent luminescence and electronic properties. They have low toxicity and good biocompatibility which makes CQDs an excellent material for biomedical applications. CQDs have broad excitation spectrum that makes them diverse.
APPLICATIONS
Due to their optical, electrical and biological properties Carbon Quantum Dots are used in:
- Bioimaging,
- Photovoltaics,
- Photocatalysis,
- Drug delivery,
- Sensors,
- Optronics.
TECHNICAL PROPERTIES
PL Emission: 420 nm
FWHM: < 65 nm
Quantum Yield: ≥ 65 %, ≥ 60 %
Solvent: Ethanol or Water
Concentration: 10 mg/mL
Explanation of Concentration and Delivery Format
Due to the specific nature of the 420 nm emission water-soluble carbon dots, delivering them in powder form is not feasible. The unique properties of these dots require them to be supplied in a pre-dissolved solution to maintain their stability and functionality. A concentration of 10 mg/mL indicates that 10 milligrams (mg) of carbon dots are dissolved in 1 milliliter (mL) of solvent.
