Tailoring Blue-Green Double Emissions in Carbon Quantum Dots via Co-Doping Engineering by Competition Mechanism between Chlorine-Related States and Conjugated π-Domains.

Abstract
Representing single-layer to tens of layers of graphene in a size less than 30 nm, carbon quantum dots (CQDs) is becoming an advanced multifunctional material for its unique optical, electronic, spin and photoelectric properties induced by the quantum confinement effect and edge effect. In present work, upon co-doping engineering, nitrogen and chlorine co-doped CQDs with uniquely strong blue-green double emissions are developed via a facile and one-pot hydrothermal method. The crystalline and optical properties of CQDs have been well manipulated by tuning the mole ratio of nitrogen/chlorine and the reaction time. The characteristic green emission centered at 512 nm has been verified, originating from the chlorine-related states, the other blue emissions centered at 460 nm are attributed to the conjugated π-domain. Increasing the proportion of 1,2,4-benzentriamine dihydrochloride can effectively adjust the bandgap of CQDs, mainly caused by the synergy and competition of chlorine-related states and the conjugated π-domain. Prolonging the reaction time promotes more nitrogen and chlorine dopants incorporate into CQDs, which inhibits the growth of CQDs to reduce the average size of CQDs down to 1.5 nm, so that the quantum confinement effect dominates into play. This work not only provides a candidate with excellent optical properties for heteroatoms-doped carbon materials but also benefits to stimulate the intensive studies for co-doped carbon with chlorine as one of new dopants paradigm.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the association of oral squamous cell carcinoma with human papillomavirus (HPV) using quantum dots (QD) in situ hybridization (ISH). METHODS Expression of HPV16/18 was analyzed in a representative collection of 21 oral squamous cell carcinomas by tissue microarrays. The presence of HPV16/18 high risk was detected by applying QDISH which is compared with conventional ISH. RESULTS Seven cases out of 21 (33.3%) were positive for QDISH while 1 out of 21 (4.8%) was positive for ISH, although all of HPV DNA were localized in the nuclei in the spinous and basal cell layer of the epithelium. The difference between these two methods was significant (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS These results demonstrate that the QD might be an efficient method for determination of HPV infection and HPV-associated oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Abstract
A facile homogenous precipitation method has been developed for the synthesis of multifunctional, magnetic, luminescent nanocomposites with Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles as the core and europium-doped yttrium oxide (Y(2)O(3):Eu) as the shell. The nanocomposites showed both super-paramagnetic behavior and unique europium fluorescence properties with high emission intensity. Their surface has been modified with a bifunctional ligand, p-aminobenzoic acid (PABA), and further biofunctionalized with biotin; the nanocomposites showed specific targeting for avidin-coupled polystyrene beads.
