Simple and efficient synthesis of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) with anodic electrochemiluminescence (ECL) remains a great challenge. Herein, we present an anodic ECL-sensing platform based on nitrogen-doped GQDs (N-GQDs), which enables sensitive detection of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and glucose. N-GQDs are easily prepared using one-step molecular fusion between carbon precursor and a dopant in an alkaline hydrothermal process. The synthesis is simple, green, and has high production yield. The as-prepared N-GQDs exhibit a single graphene-layered structure, uniform size, and good crystalline. In the presence of H2O2, N-GQDs possess high anodic ECL activity owing to the functional hydrazide groups. With N-GQDs being ECL probes, sensitive detection of H2O2 in the range of 0.3–100.0 μM with a limit of detection or LOD of 63 nM is achieved. As the oxidation of glucose catalyzed by glucose oxidase (GOx) produces H2O2, sensitive detection of glucose is also realized in the range of 0.7–90.0 μM (LOD of 96 nM).

A facile strategy is reported to synthesize nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs) with fluorescence emission by a one-step hydrothermal treatment under different temperatures with dicyanodiamide and citric acid as precursor materials of nitrogen and carbon sources, respectively. The as-produced N-CQDs display green or blue fluorescence under the ultraviolet lamp was controlled by the reaction temperature. Consequently, the as-prepared sample reacted at 200[Formula: see text]C (N-CQDs-200), within the range of 3 nm, exhibits blue fluorescence excited at 365 nm irradiation with the maximum quantum yield (QY) of ca. 30.6%. Moreover, the N-CQDs possess rich functional groups such as nitrous groups and multiple oxygenated groups, which result in a favorable solubility in most hydrophilic solvents. From the characterization and discussion of TEM, HRTEM, FT-IR, XPS, Raman and UV-Vis, it is illustrated that the fluorescence performance was largely related to the nanomorphology, nitrogen concentration, multi-surface emission sites and various forms of transitions derived from the nitrogen doping. With the excellent fluorescence performance and the favorable solubility in solvents, the products are potentially suitable for monitoring organics.
