Description
Summary:The attempts to manipulate ruthenium nanoparticle by the passivation of π bonds linkage is of interest for many years. That is the way to enhance its optical properties and fluorescence characteristics which can promote the usage for sensor application. Other view, the usage of carbon nanoparticle is governed in many aspects including its fluorescence properties. Therefore, the combination between those two valued nanoparticles was set by conducting the simple synthesis method. With the as-prepared carbon nanoparticles, all other reagents (ruthenium (III) chloride, octyne and Sodium borohydride) were mixed in the same batch. The ratio of carbon substrate, ruthenium (III) chloride and octyne was 10: 1: 3. The particle yielded was then purified and subjected to characterize using some spectroscopy techniques including photoluminescence. The results showed that size of carbon particle before and after ruthenium deposition were 5.0 and 6.3 nanometers, respectively. Octyne was coordinated self-assembly on the ruthenium surface which was 8.1 nanometers in diameter. Moreover, octyne-protected ruthenium on carbon nanoparticles showed the remarkably increasing of fluorescence Intensity. Therefore, the functionalization of carbon nanoparticle with octyne-ruthenium can be a promising strategy to develop a novel complex of ruthenium.
