Using H2O2 as a green oxidant to produce fluorescent GaOOH nanomaterials from a liquid metal
Description
We report a simple and rapid method for the synthesis of fluorescent gallium oxyhydroxide (GaOOH) nanoparticles from liquid Ga by a probe sonication method in the presence of H2O2 as an oxidant. The aspect ratio of the GaOOH nanoparticles is determined by the concentration of H2O2 and solution pH, as well as the probe energy and sonication time. Further surface modification with cyclodextrin to achieve biocompatibility for potential biomedical applications is reported where an example of cell uptake and fluorescence imaging is shown.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
