- Alkali metals can be dissolved in ether organic solvents in the presence of condensed aromatic compounds, but if the dissolution temperature is 0°C or higher, the condensed aromatic compound anions become unstable, and the condensed aromatic compounds and alkali metal atoms become unstable. There was a problem in that the effectiveness of the reducing solution was impaired due to the occurrence of a chemical reaction. For example, when naphthalene (molecular formula: C 10 H 8 ) is used as the condensed aromatic compound and lithium (Li) is used as the alkali metal, a compound such as C 10 H 7 Li is produced, which acts as a reducing agent.

- the condensed aromatic compound anion produced by the electron transfer of metallic lithium to the condensed aromatic compound can bond with the metallic lithium cation produced by electron transfer through Coulomb force.
- the reducing power may change due to reverse electron transfer from the fused aromatic compound anion once generated to the lithium cation. Fluctuations in reducing power affect the particle size distribution of the resulting single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles. Therefore, in order to suppress fluctuations in reducing power due to reverse electron transfer, lithium cations and condensed aromatic compound anions must interact with solvent molecules. This is possible by having a bonding form based on the Coulomb force.
- mediated by a solvent means that a solvated cation and a solvated anion exist in which the lithium cation and the condensed aromatic compound anion are each surrounded by solvent molecules, and the two solvents are in contact with each other. It means. Since such a solvent can intervene and create a state in which the cation and anion are in contact with each other in the solution, the condensed aromatic compound anion can exist stably, and the reverse conversion from the condensed aromatic compound anion to the lithium cation can occur. Electron transfer can be suppressed.
- the solution state of a solution prepared in advance with such a solution structure is a reducing solution prepared at a temperature of 0°C or higher without sufficient solvation or with a distribution in the solvation state. Even if the carbon nanoparticles are prepared at a low temperature, solvation does not necessarily occur completely, which causes variations in the reducing power and causes a distribution of the particle size of the carbon nanoparticles inside the solution. In a state of equilibrium where ions are directly bonded to each other by Coulomb force at a low temperature, even if the carbon nanoparticles are cooled to a low temperature during preparation, the solvent molecules can overcome the Coulomb force and enter between the cation and anion. It is difficult to do so. Therefore, the temperature during liquid preparation is important.

- the fluid treatment device described in Patent Document 6 is the device described in FIG. A concentric ring shape surrounding the central opening of the use surface 2 was used. Specifically, a single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticle reduction liquid or a single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticle raw material liquid, which is liquid A, is introduced between the processing surfaces 1 and 2 from the first introduction part d1, and the processing part 10 is rotated.
- a second liquid which is different from the liquid sent as liquid A, of the single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticle raw material liquid as liquid B or the single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticle reduction liquid is added.
- the monocrystalline spherical carbon nanoparticle raw material liquid and the single-crystalline spherical carbon nanoparticle reduction liquid are introduced between the processing surfaces 1 and 2 from the introduction part d2, and mixed in a thin film fluid. , single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles were precipitated.
- a discharged liquid containing single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles was discharged from between processing surfaces 1 and 2 of the fluid processing device.
- the discharged single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticle dispersion was collected into a beaker via a vessel.
- Table 2 shows the operating conditions of the fluid treatment device of Example 1.
- the introduction temperature (liquid feeding temperature) and introduction pressure (liquid feeding pressure) of liquid A and liquid B shown in Table 2 are based on the introduction temperature (liquid feeding temperature) and introduction pressure (liquid feeding pressure) shown in Table 2. It was measured using a thermometer and a pressure gauge provided in the second introduction part d2), and the introduction temperature of liquid A shown in Table 2 is the actual temperature under the introduction pressure in the first introduction part d1.

Thereafter, ultrasonic cleaning with THF and sedimentation were repeated, and the finally obtained single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles were dried at -0.10 MPaG and 25° C. for 20 hours to form a dry powder.
- FIG. 1 shows a TEM image of single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles of Example 1-1. Similar results were confirmed for the single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles of Examples 1-2 to 1-4. Since lattice fringes were observed in one direction, it was confirmed that it was a single crystal.
- FIG. 2 shows the results of IR spectrum measurement of the single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles of Example 1-2 in the wave number range of 2700 cm ⁇ 1 to 3050 cm ⁇ 1 . Since the absorption peaks at 2855 cm ⁇ 1 and 2920 cm ⁇ 1 were attributed to stretching vibrations of C—H bonds, it was confirmed that the single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles were hydrogenated. The same confirmation was made for Examples 1-1, 1-3, and 1-4.
- FIG. 3 shows the results of IR spectrum measurement of the single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles of Example 1-2 in the wave number region of 900 cm ⁇ 1 to 1900 cm ⁇ 1 and then waveform separation performed. The peak wave number of each band after waveform separation and the relative area ratio are shown in parentheses. Waveform separation was performed using waveform separation software built into FT/IR-6600.
- the IR spectrum in FIG. 3 is divided into 10 parts by waveform separation, and absorption in the wave number region of 1000 cm -1 to 1100 cm -1 is attributed to the C--O bond.
- the ratio of Band 9 and Band 10, which were waveform-separated in this wavenumber region, to the total area (ratio of C—O bonds) was 10.7%.
- the ratio of C-O bonds is preferably 2% or more and 15% or less. If it is less than 2%, it will be difficult to disperse single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles in an aqueous solution, and if it exceeds 15%, it will be difficult to disperse single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles in an aqueous solution. This is because when the circularity becomes 0.9 or less and the distance from the spherical shape increases, there is an inconvenience that the relative fluorescence quantum efficiency decreases.
- the C-O bonds of single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles are formed when single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles are produced by a reduction reaction in ultra-dehydrated THF, which is a grade specified with residual moisture of 10 ppm or less in tetrahydrofuran (THF). can be generated by controlling the moisture content to always be 10 ppm or less.
- THF tetrahydrofuran
- the graphene layer is easily reactive, so the single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles can be protected by a mild oxidation reaction caused by a certain amount of moisture.
- This washing and recovery basically requires dissolving the residual organic matter once in a THF solvent and then washing with pure water, but some oxidation reaction progresses during this washing and recovery operation.
- CN bond The CN bond is generated by reacting with the outermost surface of the graphene layer that was not protected by oxygen when exposed to the atmosphere during cleaning and recovery of single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles.
- C--N bonds are generated after the reaction of single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles because no nitrogen-containing raw materials or solvents are used in the reduction reaction of single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles. Although this does not have a major effect on the fluorescence properties, it also makes it possible to terminate defects with nitrogen.
- the C-N bond has absorption in the wavenumber region of 1300 cm -1 to 1400 cm -1 , so band 7 with a peak wave number of 1357 cm -1 corresponds to the relative area ratio (of the C-N bond). ratio) is 6.2%.
- the ratio of CN bonds is preferably 10% or less, since CN bonds, together with C--O bonds, have the effect of terminating defects where bonds of carbon atoms in the graphene layer are broken. This C—N bond may not be detected if a C—O bond terminates a carbon atom bond defect.
- the single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles confirmed in FIG. 2 can make the surface of the single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles hydrophobic, the single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles can be well dispersed in an organic solvent. However, according to the results shown in FIG. 2, it was confirmed that dispersibility in aqueous solvents was also possible due to the coexistence of C—O bonds.
- FIG. 4 shows the fluorescence spectrum of the single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles of Examples 1-3. This is a fluorescence spectrum normalized by setting the maximum intensity of the fluorescence spectrum obtained for each excitation wavelength as 1.0, and is the result of changing the excitation wavelength every 20 nm from 320 nm to 580 nm. From the results shown in FIG. 4, it was confirmed that the fluorescence of the single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles of Example 1-3 showed a maximum peak at 400 nm to 600 nm, depending on the excitation wavelength.
- Figure 5 is a diagram showing the relationship between excitation wavelength and fluorescence peak wavelength, created based on the results of Figure 4. It shows the excitation wavelength dependence of the fluorescence peak wavelength of the single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles of Examples 1-3. It is known that as the particle size of single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles increases, the fluorescence peak wavelength shifts to the longer wavelength side, so it is believed that fluorescence is obtained from nanoparticles whose particle size has been increased little by little.
- the change in the fluorescence peak wavelength in this single crystal spherical carbon particle is explained by (A) quantum effect among the three mechanisms (A) to (C) above. That is, the fluorescence peak wavelength of the single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles is thought to be shifted to the shorter wavelength side because the band gap increases as the particle size of the single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles decreases. (A) This is a result due to the quantum effect mechanism. Furthermore, the single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles of the present invention are not surface-modified with alkyl groups, amino groups, etc., and do not have the surface modification mechanism (B) among the three mechanisms described above. It is thought that the fluorescence is produced by a synergistic effect of (C) an oxygen-mediated mechanism due to the bonding of oxygen to the particles and (A) a quantum effect mechanism.
- FIG. 6 shows the Raman scattering spectrum of the single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles of Examples 1-3.
- the Raman scattering spectrum of graphite shows a peak called the IG band only in the wave number region from 1650 cm -1 to 1550 cm -1 , but when the bonds in the graphene layer are disrupted and defects occur in the graphite, the peak from 1300 cm -1 to 1300 cm -1 . Since a peak called the I D band appears at 1450 cm ⁇ 1 , defects in the carbon material can be estimated based on the value of I D /I G , which is the spectral intensity ratio between the two.
- FIG. 6 shows the Raman scattering spectrum of the single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles of Examples 1-3.

- Comparative example 1 The recipe of Comparative Example 1 was the same as that of Example 1 shown in Table 1, but as shown in Table 4, the disk rotation speed was lowered to 600 rpm and 500 rpm to produce single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles. Table 5 shows the results for the single crystal spherical carbon particles obtained. By reducing the disk rotation speed to less than 700 rpm, no change was observed in the crystal structure, but the average circularity became less than 0.9, and the I D / I G ratio increased from 1.0. Since the number of defects increased more than in Example 1, the relative fluorescence quantum efficiency became a low value of 5% or less.
- Example 2 shows the results of single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles produced when the single-crystal spherical carbon particle reducing solution was prepared at ⁇ 10° C. and 10° C. below 0° C., and the disk rotation speed was 5000 rpm and 3500 rpm.
- the compositions of the single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticle reducing solution and the single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticle raw material solution were the same as in Example 1, and they were produced under the conditions shown in Table 1.
- Table 6 shows the manufacturing conditions of Example 2, and the results of the obtained single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles are as shown in Table 7.
- Comparative example 2 The prescription of Comparative Example 2 was the same as that of Example 1 shown in Table 1, but as shown in Table 8, the disk rotation speed was lowered to 700 rpm, and the temperature of the single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticle reduction solution of Solution A was lowered. Single crystal spherical carbon particles were produced at -10°C and 10°C. Table 9 shows the results for the produced single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles. The average circularity of the single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles produced at a lower disk rotation speed of 700 rpm and a liquid A temperature of 10° C. or less is less than 0.9, which indicates the abundance ratio of defects calculated by Raman scattering spectrum ID / Since the IG ratio increased to 1.0 or more, the relative fluorescence quantum efficiency became a low value of 5% or less.
- Example 3 the formulations of liquids A and B were the same as those in Table 1, and the flow rate ratio of liquid B, single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticle raw material liquid, to liquid A, single crystal spherical carbon nanoparticle reducing liquid, was changed.

- Example 3-2 and Example 3-3 a diffraction peak with a diffraction angle 2 ⁇ of 43.25° due to the rhombohedral space lattice was observed, and results were obtained that suggested that the space lattice was almost a rhombohedral lattice.
- Example 3-3 a peak was also observed at 43.5°, which was determined to be due to the rhombohedral lattice.
- FIG. 9 shows the fluorescence spectrum of single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles produced in Example 3-3.
- the fluorescence peak wavelength measured at an excitation wavelength of 240 nm to 360 nm was 420 nm, indicating no dependence on excitation wavelength.
- the fluorescence peak wavelength of Examples 1-3 shown in FIG. 4 shows excitation light dependence, and as the excitation wavelength becomes longer, the fluorescence peak wavelength also shifts to the longer wavelength side.
- the structure of single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles corresponds to a hexagonal structure in which a simple lattice and a rhombohedral lattice coexist, as shown in FIG.
- Example 3-3 results were obtained only for the rhombohedral lattice, so it is considered that the difference in the excitation light dependence of the fluorescence peak wavelength is due to the difference in the spatial lattice of the single crystal spherical carbon particles.
- the effect of increasing the flow rate of the single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticle reducing solution of solution A than the flow rate of the single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticle raw material solution of solution B is to increase the reduction reaction rate.
- these fine graphene layers are stacked on each other in the c-axis direction, thereby making it possible to manufacture smaller single-crystal spherical carbon nanoparticles.
