▎ 摘  要

Magnetic force microscopy (MFM) is utilized to characterize the magnetic moment in nanostructured plant leaf-derived graphene quantum dot clusters (GQDCs). The MFM signal reveals that the magnetic response of the GQDCs depends on the height and width of the GQDCs. However, individual GQDs, and smaller clusters with widths of less than 20 nm, have not shown any observable magnetic signal. Importantly, experimental analyses suggest that the magnetic signal of GQDCs distributed in a plane can be effectively detected at room temperature. These results could pave the way for future graphene-based magnetic storage media and spin manipulation quantum devices.
