▎ 摘  要

Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) and zinc phthalocyanines interactions in different modes (covalent and non-covalent) are reported in this study. GQDs were covalently attached to the following complexes: zinc tetraamino phthalocyanine (ZnTAPc) via amide coupling, zinc tetracarboxyphenoxy Pc (ZnTCPPc) (pi-pi interaction) and cationic zinc tetrapyridiloxy Pc (ZnTmPyPc) (ionic interaction). GQDs fluorescence was quenched in the presence of the ZnPc derivatives. The nanoensembles of GQDs-ZnPcs showed stimulated emissions of the ZnPcs. The suggested quenching mechanism is through Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET). These novel nanoensembles hold promise for various optical and luminescence based applications.
