Space-Selective Fabrication of Light-Emitting Carbon Dots in Polymer Films Using Electron-Beam-Induced Chemical Reactions.

ABSTRACT: Nanocarbon-based materials have excellent properties, including high electrical conductivity as well as charity-dependent optical absorption and luminescence; therefore, the materials are promising in applications for nanoelectric devices, nanophotonics, and so on. Carbon dots (CDs) are one of the carbon materials recently fabricated. Optical properties of CDs have been reported to be similar to those of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). For this reason, the CDs are considered to be composed of PAH. Synthesis of CDs has previously been accomplished through hydrothermal synthesis and microwave irradiation. These methods require a long synthesis time, and the processes involve multiple steps. In this study, we developed a fabrication method of CDs in simple and spatially selective way
