Fluorine-doped carbon quantum dots with deep-red emission for hypochlorite determination and cancer cell imaging

As a type of new carbon-based nanomaterials,carbon dots(CDs)possess exceptional optical properties,making them highly desirable for use in fluorescent sensors.However,the CDs with deep-red(DR)or near-infrared(NIR)emission have rarely been reported.In this work,we prepared deep-red emissive fluorine-doped carbon quantum dots(F-CDs)by introducing a precursor simultaneously containing fluo-rine and amidogen.The synergistic effect of nitrogen doping and D-π-A pattern production contributed to the maximum emission of F-CDs at 636 nm with an absolute quantum yield of 36.00%±0.68%.More-over,we designed an F-CDs-based fluorescence assay to determine the content of hypochlorite(ClO-),with a limit of detection(LOD)as low as 15.4nmol/L,indicating the high sensitivity of F-CDs to ClO-.In real samples,the F-CDs-based fluorescent sensor exhibited excellent sensitivity and selectivity in the detection of ClO-,with an error below 2%,suggesting their great potential in daily life.In cancer cell imaging,the F-CDs not only demonstrated high sensitivity to ClO-but also exhibited excellent mitochon-dria targeting,as evidenced by the high Pearson's correlation coefficient(PCC)of 0.93 in colocalization analysis.The work presented here suggests the great potential of replacing commercial dyes with F-CDs for highly specific mitochondria labeling and cell imaging.
