Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) were synthesized by a facile one-step wet chemically derived from carbon fibers. A novel, sensitive, simple, and convenient method for the detection of tert-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) was established based on GQDs and silver nanoparticle (AgNP) modified electrode. The modified electrode exhibited excellent electrocatalytic performance toward the electrochemical detection of TBHQ. Meanwhile, a possible reaction mechanism related to the oxidation of TBHQ was proposed. The electron transfer number and electron transfer coefficient were found to be 3.05 and 0.40. The surface concentration of TBHQ on GQD/AgNP-modified electrode was calculated as 2.62 × 10−10 mol cm−2. Under the optimum conditions, a good linear relationship between peak current and the concentration of TBHQ was obtained in the range of 0.15–300 μmol L–1 with a detection limit of 0.07 μmol L–1 (S/N = 3). The proposed method was successfully applied for the detection of TBHQ in edible vegetable oil.

When the size of a semiconductor is reduced by an appropriate materials processing technique to a dimension less than about twice the radius of an exciton in the bulk crystal, the band like structure of the semiconductor gives way to discrete molecular orbital electronic states. Clusters of semiconductors in a size regime lower than 2R {where R is the exciton Bohr radius; e.g. 3 nm for CdS and 7.3 nm for CdTe) are called Quantum Dots (QD) because they confine optically excited electron- hole pairs (excitons) in all three spatial dimensions. Structures based on QD are of great interest because of fast response times and non-linearity in optical switching applications.In this paper we report the first HREM analysis of the size and structure of CdTe and CdS QD formed by precipitation from a modified borosilicate glass matrix. The glass melts were quenched by pouring on brass plates, and then annealed to relieve internal stresses. QD precipitate particles were formed during subsequent "striking" heat treatments above the glass crystallization temperature, which was determined by differential thermal analysis.
