Abstract:
Nanoparticles possess unique features due to their small size and can be composed of different surface chemistries. Carbon quantum dots possess several unique physico-chemical and antibacterial activities. This review provides an overview of different methods to prepare carbon quantum dots from different carbon sources in order to provide guidelines for choosing methods and carbon sources that yield carbon quantum dots with optimal antibacterial efficacy. Antibacterial activities of carbon quantum dots predominantly involve cell wall damage and disruption of the matrix of infectious biofilms through reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation to cause dispersal of infecting pathogens that enhance their susceptibility to antibiotics. Quaternized carbon quantum dots from organic carbon sources have been found to be equally efficacious for controlling wound infection and pneumonia in rodents as antibiotics. Carbon quantum dots derived through heating of natural carbon sources can inherit properties that resemble those of the carbon sources they are derived from. This makes antibiotics, medicinal herbs and plants or probiotic bacteria ideal sources for the synthesis of antibacterial carbon quantum dots. Importantly, carbon quantum dots have been suggested to yield a lower chance of inducing bacterial resistance than antibiotics, making carbon quantum dots attractive for large scale clinical use.

Abstract:
We study the optical and electronic properties of carbon-based quantum dots using first-principles calculations. Based on time-dependent density functional theory we calculated absorption and emission of carbon quantum dots, we focus on the influence of surface (edge) functional groups. We can show that nitrogen groups on the carbon edges are decisive for the emission properties of small carbon quantum dots and could give rise to charge-carrier multiplication which has been suggested by recent experiments. Moreover, we explain the stability, with regard to the absorption in the optical range, of carbon quantum dots under ambient conditions. Here, we demonstrate that surface oxidation does only influence the absorption in the visible light range but does give rise to variation in the UV absorption.

Abstract:
Carbon “quantum” dots or carbon dots (CDots) exploit and enhance the intrinsic photoexcited state properties and processes of small carbon nanoparticles via effective nanoparticle surface passivation by chemical functionalization with organic species. The optical properties and photoinduced redox characteristics of CDots are competitive to those of established conventional semiconductor quantum dots and also fullerenes and other carbon nanomaterials. Highlighted here are major advances in the exploration of CDots for their serving as high-performance yet nontoxic fluorescence probes for one- and multi-photon bioimaging in vitro and in vivo, and for their uniquely potent antimicrobial function to inactivate effectively and efficiently some of the toughest bacterial pathogens and viruses under visible/natural or ambient light conditions. Opportunities and challenges in the further development of the CDots platform and related technologies are discussed.

Abstract:
Quantum dots have innate advantages as the key component of optoelectronic devices. For white light–emitting diodes (WLEDs), the modulation of the spectrum and color of the device often involves various quantum dots of different emission wavelengths. Here, we fabricate a series of carbon quantum dots (CQDs) through a scalable acid reagent engineering strategy. The growing electron-withdrawing groups on the surface of CQDs that originated from acid reagents boost their photoluminescence wavelength red shift and raise their particle sizes, elucidating the quantum size effect. These CQDs emit bright and remarkably stable full-color fluorescence ranging from blue to red light and even white light. Full-color emissive polymer films and all types of high–color rendering index WLEDs are synthesized by mixing multiple kinds of CQDs in appropriate ratios. The universal electron-donating/withdrawing group engineering approach for synthesizing tunable emissive CQDs will facilitate the progress of carbon-based luminescent materials for manufacturing forward-looking films and devices.

Abstract:
This thesis presents research into spin-transport in Carbon nanotube quantum dots. Sputtered Permalloy electrodes designed with shape anisotropy were used to contact Carbon nanotubes grown by chemicalvapour deposition in lateral spin-valve structures. The magnetoresistance of these spin-valves were measured at low-temperatures and as a function of the charge state of the quantum dots. Two conductance regimes were measured in a Carbon nanotube spinvalve with Permalloy nucleation pads. At high bias outside of the coulomb blockade regime a ~ 10% magnetoresistance was measured that is analogous to giant-magnetoresistance, in that it is due to spindependent scattering at the ferromagnet-Carbon nanotube interfaces. At lower bias the device enters the coulomb blockade regime and the magnetoresistance observed develops a different structure, over a larger field range, together with the development of an offset in conductance between saturations. The maximum value of this MR was MR ~ 245% and it was attributed to changes in the induced charge on the quantum dot. By modifying the design of the Permalloy electrodes, a single domain state at the point of contact of the Carbon nanotube was achieved. A well defined anti-parallel state of the Permalloy electrodes, with associated changes in the conduction of the devices was observed, yet the conductance offset remained, with a maximum MR of ~ 60%. The positions of the coulomb peaks were measured during magnetic reversal of the electrodes, showing the change in induced charge on the quantum dot, with a maximum MR ~ 350%. Predictions of device transport based on the magneto-coulomb effect and spin-dependent interfacial phase shifts were compared to experimental results and found to not fit the observed behaviour. This led to the conclusion that changes in the charge state of the quantum dots must be due to a fixed spin-quantisation axis intrinsic to the Carbon nanotube.

Full text
Abstract:
Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) are small pieces of graphene oxide whose physical dimensions are so confined (a few to a few tens nm) that they have a finite bandgap due to a quantum confinement effect. The finite bandgap of GQDs grants them pronounced absorption bands and a substantial photoluminescence. These optical properties are rarely observed in traditional carbon materials, since most of carbon materials are metallic with a near-zero bandgap and thus have broad absorption spectra with no photoluminescence. The unique optical properties of GQDs, along with GQDs’ inherited advantages from carbon material family (cheap, abundant, non-toxic), make GQDs an attractive material for various applications such as bio-imaging, photoinduced therapy, chemical and metal ion sensors, and photovoltaic devices. Despite of their great potential, several great challenges need to be overcome to enable wider applications. One challenge is the fact that GQDs prepared by typical chemical methods possess significant inhomogeneity, so the precise control of the dimension and surface functionalities is very difficult. Due to the inhomogeneity of GQDs in terms of dimensions and surface functionalities, it is challengeable to establish a precise structure-property relationship. As of today, it is still under debate how surface functional groups of GQDs are responsible for the photoluminescence mechanism, photophysics, and photochemistry. This dissertation is mainly to provide a dedicated study about the photoluminescence mechanism and structure-property relations of GQDs.

Abstract:
This thesis describes experiments on quantum dots made by locally gating one-dimensional quantum wires. The first experiment studies a double quantum dot device formed in a Ge/Si core/shell nanowire. In addition to measuring transport through the double dot, we detect changes in the charge occupancy of the double dot by capacitively coupling it to a third quantum dot on a separate nanowire using a floating gate. We demonstrate tunable tunnel coupling of the double dot and quantify the strength of the tunneling using the charge sensor. The second set of experiments concerns carbon nanotube double quantum dots. In the first nanotube experiment, spin-dependent transport through the double dot is compared in two sets of devices. The first set is made with carbon containing the natural abundance of \(^{12}C\) (99%) and \(^{13}C\) (1%), the second set with the 99% \(^{13}C\) and 1% \(^{12}C\). In the devices with predominantly \(^{13}C\), we find evidence in spin-dependent transport of the interaction between the electron spins and the \(^{13}C\) nuclear spins that was much stronger than expected and not present in the \(^{12}C\) devices. In the second nanotube experiment, pulsed gate experiments are used to measure the timescales of spin relaxation and dephasing in a two-electron double quantum dot. The relaxation time is longest at zero magnetic field and goes through a minimum at higher field, consistent with the spin-orbit-modified electronic spectrum of carbon nanotubes. We measure a short dephasing time consistent with the anomalously strong electron-nuclear interaction inferred from the first nanotube experiment.

Abstract:
Dans cette thèse, nous étudions des circuits de boîtes quantiques à base de nanotubes de carbone intégrés dans une cavité micro-onde. Cette architecture générale permet de sonder le circuit en utilisant simultanément des mesures de transport et des techniques propre au domaine de l’Electrodynamique quantique sur circuit. Les deux expériences réalisées durant cette thèse exploitent la capacité des métaux de contact à induire des corrélations de spins dans les boites quantiques. La première expérience est l’étude d’une lame s´séparatrice à paires de Cooper, initialement imaginée comme une source d’électrons intriqués. Le couplage du circuit aux photons dans la cavité permet de sonder la dynamique interne du circuit, et a permis d’observer des transitions de charge habillées par le processus de séparation des paires de Cooper. Le couplage fort entre une transition de charge dans un circuit de boîtes quantiques et des photons en cavité, a été observée pour la première fois dans ce circuit. Une nouvelle technique de fabrication a aussi été développé pour intégrer un nanotube de carbone cristallin au sein du circuit de boîtes quantiques. La pureté et l’accordabilité de cette nouvelle génération de circuit a rendu possible la seconde expérience. Cette dernière utilise deux vannes de spins non colinéaire afin de produire une interface cohérente entre le spin d’un électron dans une double boite quantique, et un photon dans une cavité. Des transitions de spins très cohérentes ont été observée, et nous donnons un modèle sur l’origine de la décohérence du spin comprenant le bruit en charge et les fluctuations des spins nucléaires
In this thesis, we study carbon nanotubes based quantum dot circuits embedded in a microwave cavity. This general architecture allows one to simultaneously probe the circuit via quantum transport measurements and using circuit quantum electrodynamics techniques. The two experiments realized in this thesis use metallic contacts of the circuit as a resource to engineer a spin sensitive spectrum in the quantum dots. The first one is a Cooper pair splitter which was originally proposed as a source of non local entangled electrons. By using cavity photons as a probe of the circuit internal dynamics, we observed a charge transition dressed by coherent Cooper pair splitting. Strong charge-photon coupling in a quantum dot circuit was demonstrated for the first time in such a circuit. A new fabrication technique has also been developed to integrate pristine carbon nanotubes inside quantum dot circuits. The purity and tunability of this new generation of devices has made possible the realization of the second experiment. In the latter, we uses two non-collinear spin-valves to create a coherent interface between an electronic spin in a double quantum dot and a photon in a cavity. Highly coherent spin transitions have been observed. We provide a model for the decoherence based on charge noise and nuclear spin fluctuations

Abstract:
Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are the latest generation of carbon nanomaterials in applications where fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, and graphene are abundantly used. With several attractive properties such as tunable optical property, edge-functionalization, and defect-rich chemical structure, CQDs have the potential to revolutionize optoelectronics, electro- and photocatalysis, and biomedical applications. Chemical modifications through the addition of heteroatoms, chemical reduction, and surface passivation are found to alter the band gap, spectral position, and emission pathways of CQDs. Despite extensive studies, fundamental understanding of structure-property relationship remains unclear due to the inhomogeneity in chemical structure and a complex emission mechanism for CQDs. This dissertation outlines a series of works that investigate the structure-property relationship of CQDs and its impact in a variety of applications. First, this relationship was explored by modifying specific chemical functionalities of CQDs and relating them to differences observed in optical, catalytic, and pharmacological performance. While a number of scientific articles reported that top-down or bottom-up synthesized CQDs yielded similar properties, the results herein present dissimilar chemical structures as well as photoluminescent and metal sensing properties. Second, the role of nitrogen heteroatoms in top-down synthesized CQD was studied. The effect of nitrogen atoms on spectral position and fluorescence quantum yield was considerably studied in past reports; however, thorough investigation to differentiate various nitrogen related chemical states was rarely reported. By finely tuning both the quantity of nitrogen doping and the distribution of nitrogen-related chemical states, we found that primary amine and pyridine induce a red-shift in emission while pyrrolic and graphitic nitrogen produced a blue-shift in emission. The investigation of nitrogen chemical states was extended to bottom-up synthesized CQDs with similar results. Finally, top-down, bottom-up, nitrogen-doped and chemically reduced CQDs were separately tested for their ability to act as photodynamic anti-cancer agents. This series of experiments uncovered the distribution of reactive oxygen species produced during light exposure which elucidated the photodynamic mechanisms of cancer cytotoxicity. The results presented in this dissertation provide key insight into engineering finely-tailored CQDs as the ideal nanomaterial for a broad range of applications.

Abstract:
Biocompatible and photostable fluorescent probes are crucial yet challenging to develop for visualizing and tracking biological functions and interactions that occur in living organisms. We synthesized biocompatible carbon quantum dots (CQDs) with 15% quantum yield (QY) and tested them for cellular and scaffold imaging at variable depths. The CQDs, synthesized from collagen under controlled and benign conditions in a hydrothermal reactor, were characterized for their fundamental physicochemical properties. The fluorescence characteristics were determined using two-photon microscopy and based on our results we propose a mechanism for CQD luminescence by combining the carbogenic core and edge-effect contributions to the photoluminescent (PL) behavior. The bioimaging of cells embedded in a luminescent 3D printed scaffold showed that CQDs enable imaging at depths of about 1500 μm under biomimetic conditions. Real-time videography and imaging tests showed a differential visualization of individual cells and scaffold. The excellent photostability and non-photobleaching characteristics of CQDs make them suitable for long-term whole cell and tissue imaging via multi-photon microscopy. Nanoparticles are key vehicles for targeted therapies because they can pass through biological barriers, enter into cells, and distribute within cell structures. We investigated the synthesis of blue and green emissive hexagonal boron nitride quantum dots (hBNQDs) using a liquid-exfoliation technique followed by hydrothermal treatment. A distinct shift from blue to bright-green emission was observed upon surface passivating the dots using poly (ethylene glycol) or PEG200 under the same UV irradiation. The quantum yield of the hBNQDs increased with the surface passivation. Multiplexed imaging was accomplished using the hBNQDs in conjunction with organic dyes. The hBNQDs provided images with distinctive emission wavelengths and fluorescence lifetimes. Although the fluorescence signals of blue- and green-emissive hBNQDs overlap spectrally with those of the emission wavelengths of the organic dyes, the fluorescence lifetime data were resolved temporally using software-based time gates. The blue-emissive hBNQD-b quantum dots were validated as sensitive platforms for detecting intracellular ferric ions with a low limit of detection (20.6 nM). The green-emissive hBNQD-g quantum dots successfully identified intracellular variations in pH, and the localization in human breast cancer cells was determined during their life cycles via fluorescence lifetime imaging. Sensitive and selective detection of Fe3+ merits attention since its deficiency can cause significant physiological dysfunction. Herein, we explored the interplay of synthesis parameters and size of the Spirulina derived carbon dots to optimize and develop a bright (51% quantum yield), selective and ultra-sensitive sensor to detect variations in intracellular Fe3+ ion concentrations. The final product showed a lower detection limit of 380pM and a response time of only 30 seconds. Several spectroscopic methods were used to elucidate the fluorescence and quenching mechanism of the carbon dots (CDs). Fluorescence lifetime measurements and Stern-Volmer analysis revealed that both static and dynamic quenching processes are dominant at low and high concentrations of Fe3+ ions respectively. The developed CDs were successfully applied to track the dynamic generation of endogenous Fe3+ in living cells under stress induced conditions.

Abstract:
Self-assembly of nanomaterials over macroscopic dimensions and development of novel nano-electromechanical systems (NEMS) hold great promise for numerous nanotech applications. However, it has always been a great challenge to find a general route for controlled self-assembly of nanomaterials and generating electromechanical response at the nanoscale level. This work indicates that self-organized anisotropic nematic liquid crystals (LC) can be exploited for nanotemplating purposes to pattern carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and Quantum dots (QDs) over a macroscopic dimension. The pattern formed by the CNTs or QDs can be controlled by applying external electric and magnetic fields, developing novel nano-electromechanical and nano-magnetomechanical systems. Self-organizing nematic liquid crystals (LC) impart their orientational order onto dispersed carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and obtain CNT-self-assembly on a macroscopic dimension. The nanotubes-long axis, being coupled to the nematic director, enables orientational manipulation via the LC nematic reorientation. Electric field induced director rotation of a nematic LC+CNT system is of potential interest due to its possible application as a nano-electromechanical system. Electric field and temperature dependence of dielectric properties of an LC+CNT composite system have been investigated to understand the principles governing CNT-assembly mediated by the LC. In the LC+CNT nematic phase, the dielectric relaxation on removing the applied field follows a single exponential decay, exhibiting a faster decay response than the pure LC above a threshold field. Due to a strong LC-CNT anchoring energy and structural symmetry matching, CNT long axis follows the director field, possessing enhanced dielectric anisotropy of the LC media. This strong anchoring energy stabilizes local pseudo-nematic domains, resulting in nonzero dielectric anisotropy in the isotropic LC phase. These anisotropic domains respond to external electric fields and show intrinsic frequency response. The presence of these domains makes the isotropic phase electric field-responsive, giving rise to a large dielectric hysteresis effect. These polarized domains maintain local directors, and do not relax back to the original state on switching the field off, showing non-volatile electromechanical memory effect. Assembling quantum dots (QDs) into nanoscale configurations over macroscopic dimensions is an important goal to realizing their electro-optical potential. In this work, we present a detailed study of a pentylcyanobiphenyl liquid crystal (LC) and a CdS QD colloidal dispersion by probing the dielectric property  and relaxation as a function of an applied ac-electric field Eac. In principle, dispersing QDs in a nematic LC medium can direct the dots to align in nearly one-dimensional chain-like structures along the nematic director and these assemblies of QDs can be directed by external electric fields. In a uniform planar aligned cell, the Fréedericksz switching of the LC+QDs appears as a two-step process with the same initial switching field as the bulk but with the final value larger than that for an aligned bulk LC. The relaxation of  immediately following the removal of Eac follows a single-exponential decay to its original value that is slower than the bulk but becomes progressively faster with increasing Eac, eventually saturating. These results suggest that the arrangement of the QDs is mediated by the LC.

Abstract:
Territórios Indígenas (TIs) na Amazônia protegem aproximadamente 24.5 gigatoneladas de carbono (GtC) acima do solo, atuam como barreiras significativas contra o desmatamento e a degradação florestal, e funcionam como importantes amortecedores contra as mudanças climáticas. TIs demarcadas apresentam desmatamento significativamente menor do que terras não reconhecidas oficialmente, demonstrando a importância de se demarcar TIs tanto para proteger os meios de subsistência e as culturas dos povos nativos da Amazônia, quanto para conservar suas florestas e rios.
