The method to determine the molar concentration of Cu-NCs
The concentration of the Cu-NCs was calculated based on the hypothesis that the added
CuAc2 was completely reduced. This hypothesis was reasonable because Cu2+ was not observed
in the resulting Cu-NCs, which was revealed by the XPS analysis (Fig. 1d). In our case, 6.0 mg
Cu(CH3COO)2·H2O was used to prepare the Cu-NCs, corresponding to 0.03 mmol copper.
Because the resulting Cu-NCs solution was adjusted to 30 mL with water, hence the molar
concentration of Cu-NCs is 1.0 mM. This result is consistent with that by flame atomic
absorption spectrometry (FAAS). We used FAAS to detect concentration of Cu-NCs. The
concentration of the resulting Cu-NCs suspension by FAAS is about 63.5 mg·L-1, corresponding
to 1.0 mM.
