| description |
A quasi zero-dimensional carbon quantum dots were successfully synthesised
from cocoa pod husk through an eco-friendly and simple hydrothermal reaction.
In addition, different analysis was used to approve synthesise of the cocoa pod
husks carbon quantum dots such as x-ray diffraction pattern, high resolution
transmission electron microscope, fourier-transform infrared reflection
spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering and zeta potential analysis. According to
the characterization, the product was amorphous carbon with particle sizes 2.1-
4.1 nm and contain various functional groups including hydroxyl and carbonyl.
Besides, the photoluminescence (PL) intensity from cocoa pod husk carbon
quantum dots can be modified through the optimization of hydrothermal
parameters. The PL analysis showed the product has high photoluminescence
intensity under optimized synthesis conditions with a quantum yield of 39.3%
compared to non-optimized synthesis conditions (25.38%). Overall, the highest
PL intensity of CQDs was successfully obtained by setting the hydrothermal
temperature to 200°C for 2 hours, at a pH of 10 and a concentration of 1 mg/mL. |
