Front Cover: Aqueous Conversion of Fructose Phosphate Precursor Nanoparticles into Emissive C‐Dot Composite Nanoparticles (ChemNanoMat 8/2021)

Abstract

As with cooking, the microwave does the job – and converts [ZrO]2+[F6P]2−/[Eu(OH)]2+[F6P]2− precursor nanoparticles (F6P: D‐fructose‐6‐phosphate) at 100 °C in water to C‐dot@[ZrO]2+[HPO4]2−/C‐dot@[Eu(OH)]2+[HPO4]2− composite nanoparticles. The simple one‐pot reaction results in aqueous suspensions showing intense blue/red emission. More information can be found in the Full Paper by Claus Feldmann et al.
