| Abstract: | Carbon nanoparticles (CNP) have gained significant attention representing
unique carbon-based nanomaterials that find applications in various fields of
science and technology. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and carbon dots (CDs)
have now been widely employed as an electrode in super capacitors, as
fluorescent nanomaterials for imaging and for fuel cell applications. In the
present work, we describe a simple, low cost and chemical free method of
synthesizing stable CNPs aligned in the form of a chain popularly known as
carbon necklace with CNTs and CDs. Carbon nanoparticles are synthesized by
controlled combustion of camphor in a single step flame process. The CNPs
synthesized are characterized using X-ray Powder diffraction (XRD), Raman
Spectroscopy, Energy Dispersive X ray diffraction (EDX), Fourier Transform
Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), UV-Visible absorption and Photoluminescent
(PL) Spectroscopy. The morphology and size of the CNPs are examined using
Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM) which shows
‘necklace’ structure. The CNPs are collected at two different heights and the
particles formed are found in the range 30 to 60 nm. The UV- Visible and PL
Spectra of the CNPs obtained show the presence CDs. The Raman
Spectroscopic and XRD analysis indicate the presence of CNTs in the sample. |
