Fluorinated graphene oxide; a new multimodal material for biological applications.

ABSTRACT: Fluorinated graphene oxide (FGO) is reported for the first time as a magnetically responsive drug carrier that can serve both as a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and photoacoustic contrast agent, under preclinical settings, and as a type of photothermal therapy. Its hydrophilic nature facilitates biocompatibility. FGO as a broad wavelength absorber, with high charge transfer and strong non-linear scattering is optimal for NIR laser-induced hyperthermia.

Synthesis of double-clickable functionalised graphene oxide for biological applications.

Project description:Azide- and alkyne-double functionalised graphene oxide (Click(2) GO) was synthesised and characterised with attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Raman spectroscopy. Fourteen-percentage increase in azide content was found, after pre-treatment of GO with meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (mCPBA), determined with elemental analysis. No effect on A549 cell viability was found, up to 100 ?g mL(-1) and 72 h of incubation, determined with the modified lactate dehydrogenase (mLDH) assay. Two sequential copper(i) catalysed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions were performed to conjugate the propargyl-modified blood-brain barrier targeting peptide Angiopep-2, and a bis-azide polyethylene glycol (MW = 3500), to the Click(2) GO. The final conjugate was characterised with ATR-FTIR and TGA.

Microwave synthesis of antimony oxide graphene nanoparticles - a new electrode material for supercapacitors.

Project description:For the first time, antimony oxide nanoparticles were produced using a microwave technique and evaluated as a supercapacitor electrode. The specific capacitance derived from the material's galvanostatic charge-discharge curve was 98 F g-1 in 1 M Li2SO4 electrolyte at 0.1 A g-1 current density. The charge storage mechanism visible in the CV curve is nearly rectangular and identical to the EDLC charge storage mechanism. Additionally, antimony species were chemically attached to graphene oxide using an antimony(iii) chloride precursor and subsequently microwave aided procedures were used to convert the antimony species to SbO-G nanocomposites. The results of energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy demonstrated the pure character of the produced material. In a three-electrode cell arrangement, the resulting composite was electrochemically characterized. The cyclic voltammogram results showed that among the pristine SbO, graphene, and SbO-G materials, SbO-G had a higher specific capacitance value of 37.58 F g-1, at a scan rate of 10 mV s-1. The material has also demonstrated good conductivity characteristics based on electrochemical impedance spectroscopy research. After 3500 galvanostatic charge-discharge cycles, the material had excellent cycling stability of ∼100%. All the remarkable capacitive properties demonstrated by this material indicate that it can be a viable choice in the field of energy storage devices.

Fluorinated graphene as high performance dielectric materials and the applications for graphene nanoelectronics.

Project description:There is broad interest in surface functionalization of 2D materials and its related applications. In this work, we present a novel graphene layer transistor fabricated by introducing fluorinated graphene (fluorographene), one of the thinnest 2D insulator, as the gate dielectric material. For the first time, the dielectric properties of fluorographene, including its dielectric constant, frequency dispersion, breakdown electric field and thermal stability, were comprehensively investigated. We found that fluorographene with extremely thin thickness (5 nm) can sustain high resistance at temperature up to 400 °C. The measured breakdown electric field is higher than 10 MV cm(-1), which is the heightest value for dielectric materials in this thickness. Moreover, a proof-of-concept methodology, one-step fluorination of 10-layered graphene, is readily to obtain the fluorographene/graphene heterostructures, where the top-gated transistor based on this structure exhibits an average carrier mobility above 760 cm(2)/Vs, higher than that obtained when SiO? and GO were used as gate dielectric materials. The demonstrated fluorographene shows excellent dielectric properties with fast and scalable processing, providing a universal applications for the integration of versatile nano-electronic devices.

Hydrogenated-Graphene-Encapsulated Graphene: A Versatile Material for Device Applications.

Project description:Graphene and its heterostructures exhibit interesting electronic properties and are explored for quantum spin Hall effect (QSHE) and magnetism-based device applications. In present work, we propose a heterostructure of graphene encapsulated by hydrogenated-graphene, which could be a promising candidate for a variety of device applications. We have carried out DFT calculations on this system to check its feasibility to be a versatile material. We found that electronic states of multilayer pristine graphene, especially the Dirac cone, an important feature to host QSHE, can be preserved by sandwiching it by fully hydrogenated graphene. The interference of electronic states of hydrogenated graphene was insignificant with those of graphene. States of graphene were also found to be stable upon application of an electric field up to ±2.5 V/nm. For device applications, multilayer graphene or its heterostructures are required to be deposited on a substrate, which interacts with the system opening up a gap at the Dirac cone making it less suitable for QSHE applications, and hydrogenated graphene can prevent it. Magnetization in these hydrogenated-graphene-sandwiched graphene systems may be induced by creating vacancies or distortions in hydrogenated graphene, which was found to have a minimal effect on graphene's electronic states, thus providing an additional degree of manipulation. We also performed a set of calculations to explore its applicability for detecting some molecules. Our results on trilayer graphene encapsulated by hydrogenated graphene indicate that all these observations can be generalized for systems with a larger number of graphene layers, indicating that multilayer graphene sandwiched between two hydrogenated graphene is a versatile material that can be used in QSHE and sensor devices.

N-Doped graphene/C60 covalent hybrid as a new material for energy harvesting applications.

Project description:N-Doped graphene (N-G) was chemically functionalized by N-alkylation with the well-known electron acceptor C60. The degree of functionalization and the key structural features of the N-G/C60 hybrid were systematically investigated by a number of techniques including thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray photoelectron and Raman spectroscopies and transmission electron and atomic force microscopies. Absorption and electrochemical studies revealed interactions between the N-G and C60 while the fluorescence of C60 within the hybrid was found to be fully quenched. Evidence for the occurrence of excited state charge transfer from the singlet excited C60 to N-G in the hybrid was obtained from femtosecond transient absorption studies covering the visible-near-IR regions. Electron-pooling experiments performed in the presence of a sacrificial electron donor and a second electron acceptor, methyl viologen, revealed the accumulation of the one-electron reduced product of methyl viologen upon continuous irradiation of the N-G/C60 nanohybrid, thus revealing the utility of this material in photocatalytic energy harvesting applications.

NiMnO3 Anchored on Reduced Graphene Oxide Nanosheets: A New High-Performance Microwave Absorbing Material.

Project description:With the increasing influence of electromagnetic radiation on precision instruments and organisms, there is an urgent need for research on lightweight and high-strength electromagnetic wave absorbing materials. This study has probed into a new composite absorbing material based on reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-NiMnO3, where the like-core-shell NiMnO3 is anchored on the rGO nanosheets to significantly improve the electromagnetic wave dissipation ability of the composite material using the inter-component dipole polarization and interface polarization. At the same time, NiMnO3 can effectively adjust the impedance matching ratio of rGO so that electromagnetic waves can effectively enter the absorbing material. At a thickness of 3.73 mm, the maximum absorption strength of rGO-NiMnO3 reaches -61.4 dB at 6.6 GHz; at a thickness of 2.5 mm, the adequate absorption bandwidth is 10.04-18.00 GHz, achieving a full coverage for the Ku band. As a new option for preparing lightweight and broadband electromagnetic wave absorbing materials, rGO-NiMnO3 is an ideal material for electromagnetic wave protection.

Tris-(2-aminoethyl)amine-Intercalated Graphene Oxide as an Efficient 2D Material for Cerium-Ion Fluorescent Sensor Applications.

Project description:In this work, we report the covalent functionalization of tris(2-aminoethyl)amine (tren) onto the graphene oxide surface by the ring opening of epoxide with primary amine moieties. The effect of intercalation creates the covalent coordinating moieties in between the basal planes of graphene oxide by increasing the interlayer spacing of 1.08 nm from 0.75 nm and thereby decreasing 2θ of 8.17 deg from 10.46 deg. Because of the intercalation of tren, the aminoalcohol moieties are formed in the GO planes and the intercalated material is characterized by the spectroscopic (IR, XPS, UV, and Fluorescence) and microscopic techniques. The DFT calculation shows the newly formed C-N bond length of 1.484 Å and enhanced energy gap due to functionalization. The intercalated material shows a good selective fluorescent chemosensor for the cerium ion in aqueous solution. The reversibility and its interference with other competing metal ions have been studied. The enhanced fluorescence upon the addition of cerium ions is due to the intramolecular charge transfer and photoinduced electron transfer processes in the sp2- and sp3-hybridized carbon networks.

Nitrated Graphene Oxide Derived from Graphite Oxide: A Promising Energetic Two-Dimensional Material.

Project description:In order to synthesize a novel two-dimensional energetic material, nitrated graphene oxide (NGO) was prepared by the nitrification of graphite oxide to make a functional modification. Based on the morphological characterization, the NGO has a greater degree of curl and more wrinkles on the surface. The structure characterization and density functional theory calculation prove that epoxy and hydroxyl groups on the edge of graphite oxide have reacted with nitronium cation (NO2+) to produce nitro and nitrate groups. Hydrophobicity of NGO implied higher stability in storage than graphene oxide. Synchronous simultaneous analysis was used to explore the decomposition mechanism of NGO preliminarily. The decomposition enthalpy of NGO is 662.0 J·g-1 and the activation energy is 166.5 kJ·mol-1. The thermal stability is similar to that of general nitrate energetic materials. The hygroscopicity, thermal stability and flammability of NGO prove that it is a novel two-dimensional material with potential applications as energetic additives in the catalyst, electrode materials and energetic devices.

New Methylene Blue Covalently Functionalized Graphene Oxide Nanocomposite as Interfacial Material for the Electroanalysis of Hydrogen Peroxide.

Project description:New methylene blue (NMB), a phenothiazine dye, was covalently bonded to graphene oxide (GO) using glutaraldehyde as a crosslinking agent, which was characterized by spectroscopic techniques and electrochemistry. The obtained GO-NMB nanocomposite was used as interface material to construct a novel electrochemical sensor for the determination of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The electrochemical sensor based on GO-NMB nanocomposite exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity for the reduction of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which was also enhanced by GO within the GO-NMB nanocomposite. With the optimized experimental conditions, the developed sensor showed high sensitivity (79.4 μA mM-1 cm-2) for electrocatalytic determination of H2O2 at the applied potential of -0.50 V in the concentration range of 0.000333 to 2.28 mΜ. The low limit of detection (1.35 μM), good reproducibility, and high stability of the sensor suggests that the electrochemical sensor based on the GO-NMB nanocomposite possesses obvious advantages, which paves a new avenue to functionalize GO for obtaining electrode interface materials.

Co2TiO4/Reduced Graphene Oxide Nanohybrids for Electrochemical Sensing Applications.

Project description:For the first time, the synthesis, characterization, and analytical application for hydrogen peroxide quantification of the hybrid materials of Co2TiO4 (CTO) and reduced graphene oxide (RGO) is reported, using in situ (CTO/RGO) and ex situ (CTO+RGO) preparations. This synthesis for obtaining nanostructured CTO is based on a one-step hydrothermal synthesis, with new precursors and low temperatures. The morphology, structure, and composition of the synthesized materials were examined using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), neutron powder diffraction (NPD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Rietveld refinements using neutron diffraction data were conducted to determine the cation distributions in CTO. Hybrid materials were also characterized by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller adsorption isotherms, Scanning Electron microscopy, and scanning electrochemical microscopy. From an analytical point of view, we evaluated the electrochemical reduction of hydrogen peroxide on glassy carbon electrodes modified with hybrid materials. The analytical detection of hydrogen peroxide using CTO/RGO showed 11 and 5 times greater sensitivity in the detection of hydrogen peroxide compared with that of pristine CTO and RGO, respectively, and a two-fold increase compared with that of the RGO+CTO modified electrode. These results demonstrate that there is a synergistic effect between CTO and RGO that is more significant when the hybrid is synthetized through in situ methodology.
