Fluorescence imaging of biological systems in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II) has recently drawn much attention because of its negligible background noise of autofluorescence and low tissue scattering. Here we present a new NIR-II fluorescent agent, graphene quantum dots dual-doped with both nitrogen and boron (N-B-GQDs). N-B-GQDs have an ultra-small size (~ 5 nm), are highly stable in serum, and demonstrate a peak fluorescent emission at 1000 nm and high photostability. In addition to ...[more]
