چکیده

اولین نسل از نقاط کوانتومی بر اساس مواد معدنی سنتز شدند که برای انسان، حیوانات و موجودات بسیار مضر بودند. بنابراین، نسل جدیدی از مواد فلورسنت به نام نقاط کوانتومی برپایه کربن سنتز و توسط محققان مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. این مواد شدت فلورسانس بیشتری دارند و هیچ اثر مضری برای هیچ جانداری ندارند. نقاط کوانتومی برپایه کربن نوعی ماده فلورسنت با اندازه بین 2 تا 10 نانومتر هستند که می‌توان با استفاده از روش‌های مختلف سنتزی مانند هیدروترمال، مایکروویو، با استفاده از هیتر و سیستم تقطیر برگشتی، پیرولیز، کربنیزاسیون و سایر روش های سنتز از طریق دو روش سنتز متفاوت به نام های روش از بالا به پایین و روش از پایین به بالا سنتز گردند. از این مواد می توان در کاربردهای مختلفی مانند تصویربرداری زیستی، حسگرهای زیستی، سیستم‌های دارورسانی، سلول های خورشیدی، ال ای دی، حسگرهای شیمیایی و موارد دیگر استفاده کرد. یکی دیگر از کاربردهای مهم این مواد استفاده به عنوان جوهر ضد جعل به منظور مسائل امنیتی مانند چاپ های امنیتی و اسناد بانکی مانند چک ها می باشد. در این مقاله نگاهی کوتاه به نقاط کوانتومی کربن، روش های سنتز و کاربردها آنها خواهیم داشت.

چکیده [English]

The first generation of quantum dots was synthesized based on inorganic materials and was so harmful to human beings, animals, and organisms. Therefore, the researchers synthesized and investigated a new generation of fluorescent materials named carbon quantum dots. They have more fluorescence intensity and no harmful effects on any living. Carbon quantum dots are a type of fluorescent material with a size between 2 to 10 nm. They can be synthesized using different synthesis methods like hydrothermal, microwave-assisted, synthesis simple heating using reflux, pyrolysis, carbonization, and other synthesizing methods via two different synthesizing approaches named top-down method and bottom-up method. These materials can be used in different applications like bioimaging, biosensors, drug delivery systems, solar cells, LEDs, chemical sensors, etc. Another important application of these nanomaterials is using them as anti-counterfeiting inks for security reasons like security printings, and bank-related documents like cheques, etc. This paper will briefly look at carbon quantum dots, the synthesis methods, and their applications.
