Abstract
Due to their chemical and physical properties, this study focuses on the effect of sonication over carbon quantum dots synthesized by means of hydrothermal route, having as precursor the sour lemon juice from Michoacán, Mexico. The exfoliation was carried out with a sonotrode in times of 1, 2 and 3 hours to provide an explanation over the effect of it on the photoluminescence, where it was found that with times of 1 hour, the PL emission is improved resulting from 261 a.u. to 448 a.u. Other characterizations were carried out to confirm the results obtained in PL, where the average particle size was analyzed by SEM, particle sizes ranging from 5 to 11 nm were observed, with an average size of 7.5 nm and to confirm the carbonaceous material, UV-Vis was performed showing a resolved UV absorption band around 340 nm.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
