Formation and fluorescent mechanism of red emissive carbon dots from o-phenylenediamine and catechol system

The fluorophore source of red emissive oPD&CAT system CDs is the 5,14-dihydroquinoxalino[2,3-b] phenazine (DHQP), formed in the initial reaction stage. Subsequently, the DHQP was connected with carbon core. The excited electrons of the molecular state can transfer into the energy level of CDs, w...
