The observation of carbon dots prepared by using hawthorn as a carbon source by using a transmission electron microscope (figure 1A) shows that the carbon dots have uniform particle size and good dispersibility, the particle size distribution of the carbon dots is shown in figure 1C, the average particle size is 2.35 +/-0.67 nm, and the high-purity carbon dots with small size and narrow distribution range are obtained after the carbon dots are subjected to ultrahigh-speed gradient centrifugal purification; the observation of hawthorn prepared carbon dots by a high-resolution electron microscope shows that (figure 1B), the carbon dots have an obvious graphite crystal form, and the lattice spacing is 0.21 nm; fourier infrared spectroscopy was used to analyze the surface structure of carbon dots prepared from hawthorn (FIG. 1E), 3387cm-1The peak at (A) is due to O-H/N-H stretching vibration, 1571cm-1,1387cm-1The peak at (A) is due to COO-, 2927cm-1The peak at (a) is attributed to C-C stretching vibration, and indicates that a functional group characteristic to a carboxyl group, a hydroxyl group, or the like is present on the surface of the carbon dot.
The carbon dots have an optimal excitation wavelength of 352nm and an optimal emission wavelength of 445nm (FIG. 1F), and are yellowish in white light (left inset in FIG. 1D) and fluoresce blue-green in 365nm UV light (right inset in FIG. 1D).
The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (fig. 2) shows that the carbon dots prepared by using hawthorn as a carbon source mainly contain elements such as C, O, N, wherein C, O, N corresponds to 285.29eV, 532.29eV and 399.29eV in the XPS spectrogram respectively. In fig. 2B, 284.67eV in the C1s spectrum corresponds to sp2/sp3 carbon (C-C, C ═ C); 286.26eV corresponds to C-N/C-OH; 288.0eV for C ═ O/C-O-C; in FIG. 2C, 531.78eV of the spectrum of O1s corresponds to C-O-C/C-OH; 532.9eV for C ═ O; in FIG. 2D, 399.45eV and 400.15eV of the spectrum of N1s correspond to C-N-C and N-C, respectively3(ii) a The result shows that hydroxyl and carboxyl are mainly present on the surface of the carbon dot prepared by taking hawthorn as a carbon source.
Example 2
The purification method for preparing carbon dots by taking hawthorn as a carbon source comprises the following steps: the carbon dots prepared by using hawthorn fruits as carbon sources before ultrahigh-speed gradient centrifugal purification are obtained according to the preparation method of the carbon dots described in the example 1. The conditions of ultra high speed gradient centrifugation were selected according to the conditions in Table 1, and the particle size distribution was examined by DLS.
Table 1 particle size distribution under different centrifugation conditions.
Figure BDA0003469428730000081
Table 1 shows that a carbon dot solution with a uniform particle size can be obtained by centrifuging at 20000g for 0.5h, collecting the supernatant and centrifuging at 100000g for 1.5h, collecting the supernatant and centrifuging at 200000g for 3 h. When the gradient centrifugation method is not used, the carbon spot cannot be effectively purified even if the rotation speed or time is increased.
The results of Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) measurement of the particle size of carbon dots prepared using hawthorn as a carbon source before and after ultrahigh-speed gradient centrifugation (fig. 3 and 4) show that the particle size distribution of the carbon dots prepared using hawthorn as a carbon source before ultrahigh-speed gradient centrifugation is not uniform, large-particle impurities having a particle size of more than 100nm are present, and the overall particle size is too large. After ultrahigh-speed gradient centrifugation, the particle size distribution of carbon dots prepared by taking hawthorn as a carbon source is uniform, and impurities larger than 100nm do not exist, so that the ultrahigh-speed gradient centrifugation can effectively improve the size distribution of the carbon dots prepared by taking the hawthorn as the carbon source, and the effects of impurity removal and uniform size are achieved.
Fluorescence spectra of carbon dots prepared by using hawthorn as a carbon source before and after ultrahigh-speed gradient centrifugal purification (fig. 5 and 6) show that the average size of the carbon dots before purification is about 40nm, a large number of large particles exist, and the size distribution of the carbon dots after purification is 2.35 +/-0.67 nm, as shown in fig. 1C; in fig. 5 and 6, EX represents an excitation spectrum, and EM represents an emission spectrum. The maximum excitation wavelength and the maximum emission wavelength of the carbon dots prepared by taking the hawthorn fruits as the carbon source before and after the ultrahigh-speed gradient centrifugal purification are basically consistent and are respectively 352nm and 445nm, but the fluorescence intensity of the carbon dots prepared by taking the hawthorn fruits as the carbon source after the ultrahigh-speed gradient centrifugal purification is greatly different from that of the carbon dots prepared by taking the hawthorn fruits as the carbon source under 352nm, so that the fluorescence intensity of the carbon dots prepared by taking the hawthorn fruits as the carbon source after the ultrahigh-speed gradient centrifugal purification is improved by 47 percent compared with that of the original liquid, and the ultrahigh-speed gradient centrifugal purification process can improve the particle size uniformity in the carbon dot solution and can also obviously improve the fluorescence intensity of the carbon dots.
In addition, the effect of fluorescence intensity of carbon dots before and after purification by ultracentrifugation with ultra high speed gradient is shown in FIG. 13, the left graph is the fluorescence intensity shown by carbon dots before purification, and the right graph is the fluorescence intensity shown by carbon dots after purification; the fluorescence intensity of the right graph is stronger than that of the left graph, the average size of the carbon dots before purification is about 40nm, and more large particles exist, and the size distribution of the carbon dots after purification is 2.35 +/-0.67 nm, which shows that the carbon dots after purification, which are uniform in size and small in particle size, can improve the fluorescence intensity.

FIG. 7 shows that the carbon dots have the highest fluorescence intensity at pH 7, and the fluorescence intensity changes significantly with the pH of the solution, and changes significantly between pH 2 and pH 7, indicating that the carbon dots prepared from hawthorn have certain pH sensitivity.
FIG. 8 shows that the fluorescence intensity of carbon dots prepared from Crataegus pinnatifida ranges from 0.5 to 4.5 in the pH range of the solution, and shows a good linear relationship, wherein the linear formula is that Y is 172.21X +596.62, and R is2When the fluorescence intensity was 0.994, Y was the fluorescence intensity, and X was the pH.
