▎ 摘  要

Fluorine-doped graphene quantum dots have unique chemical bonds and charge distribution, which can bring unexpected properties compared to other common atom-doped graphene quantum dots. In the present work, fluorine and nitrogen co-doped graphene quantum dots (F, N-GQDs) are synthesized from levofloxacin via a simple hydrothermal method. Systematic studies demonstrate that F, N-GQDs can emit various fluorescence with the wavelength ranging from blue to green by dispersing F, N-GQDs into different solvents. Moreover, multi-color fluorescence is available by simply changing the concentration of F, N-GQDs. In addition to these unique characteristics, F, N-GQDs also exhibit a sensitive fluorescence response to tetracycline with an ultralow detection limit of 77 nM in water. Because of high photostability and high quantum yield, the F, N-GQDs are exploited as a unique invisible ink, which is printable and writable on paper. Meanwhile, based on the solvatochromism of F, N-GQDs, we realized the color adjustable fluorescent ink. Finally, large-area flexible multi-color fluorescent films are realized. Our synthesized F, N-GQDs, with tunable fluorescence in wavelength and intensity, have numerous opportu-nities for optical molecular sensors, information security, flexible optics, and others.
