Abstract

A facile hydrazine hydrate reduction of graphene oxide (GO) with surface-passivated by a polyethylene glycol (PEG) method for the fabrication of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) with frequency upconverted emission is presented. And we speculate on the upconversion luminescence due to the anti-Stokes photoluminescence (ASPL), where the δE between the π and σ orbitals is near 1.1 eV.
