Carbon dots (CDs) have great potential in various applications. By changing the precursor ratios, blue-emissive CDs (B-CDs) with laser emission characteristics were synthesized. The laser threshold was found to be lowest at precursor ratios of 1:1 to 2:1.
As a new type of solution-processed nano-laser material, carbon dots (CDs) have shown considerable potential in optical communication, laser displays, micro/nano processing, and biomedicine. Reducing the laser threshold of the gain material is of considerable significance for further development of CDs' applications in the field of micro/nano lasers. A series of blue-emissive CDs (B-CDs) are synthesized by changing the molar ratios of the precursors (citric acid (CA): L-Cysteine (L-Cys)). B-CDs have a structure of carbon nanoparticles with their surface being modified with 5-oxo-3,5-dihydro-2Hthiazolo [3,2-a]pyridine-7-carboxylic acid (TPCA). The laser can only be generated when the molar ratio of the precursors is between 1:1 and 2:1. With an increase in this ratio, the laser threshold decreases from 341.6 to 165.5 mJ cm(-2). The decrease in the laser threshold is attributed to the increase in the radiation transition rate and centralized sp(3)-related excited state levels, which are favorable for light amplification and population inversion. These results will be instructional for the reasonably design of CDs-based laser materials and prompt their potential use in practical photonics.
