The black phosphorous quantum dots(QDs) have attracted significant interest as fascinating nanomaterials for potential applications in catalysis,optoelectronics,and sensing.The key step therefore towards application of black phosphorous QDs is the efficient preparation.The method was reported for the first time,which the black phosphorus QDs were prepared by low-temperature electrochemical anodic exfoliation of black phosphorus.After exfoliation for 1 h,the QDs were prepared,and its stability was studied.Finally,the preparation mechanism was proposed.Transmission electron microscopy,raman spectra,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and other test methods were employed to characterize the microscopic morphology,crystal structure,optical properties and stability of the QDs.The results shown that the average diameter of the QDs was 6.4±1.5nm,indicating the size was small.The material did not contain other impurities,explaining its purity was high.The QDs had low degree of oxidation,which exposed to the air still had good stability.In addition,the method took short time and was environmental friendly,which was beneficial to the preparation and application of nano-black phosphorus.
