The process is further extended to form monolayer graphene nanosheets (GNS). The films are characterized by Raman spectroscopy, Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results indicate that very few chemical and/or physical defects are introduced during formation of films. Further, an innovative single step method to form tin oxide (SnO2) films at the liquid-air interface is presented. A special feature of the method is that entire process is completed at room temperature. The film can be suitably transferred to the desired substrates by Blodgett technique. Characterization by various techniques such as XPS, TEM and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) shows that the films are made up of uniform spherical, crystalline SnO2 particles with the size in the range of 3-5 nm. Layer-by-layer (LbL) techniques can be exploited to stack graphene and SnO2 films alternately, in a desired sequence, forming a stacked composite structure. The composite structure is subjected to characterization by XPS, FE-SEM, TEM and EDS. The results show that the structure consists of a stack of predetermined thickness consisting of alternate layers of both the components. Such a structure is subjected to cyclic voltammetry (CV) studies. The results suggest LbL grown SnO2-GNS stacked composites exhibit better electrochemical performance in terms of specific capacitance and cycling ability which are primary requirements for the supercapacitor application. The coating techniques of few layer graphene nanosheets, SnO2 film and their stacked composite film are simple and inexpensive. A suitable explanation of the formation of both GNS and SnO2 films is discussed. The proposed methods extend the scope for production of high quality and defect free graphene nanosheets (GNS) and other components for forming LbL stacking of composite films.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.98</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gaikwad, Aarti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Joshi, Meenal</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Patil, Kashinath</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sathaye, Shivaram</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rode, Chandrashekhar V.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fluorescent carbon-dots thin film for fungal detection and bio-labeling applications</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ACS Applied Bio Materials</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2019</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NOV</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5829–5840</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;The fluorescence properties of CDs, such as high quantum yield, tunability of emission color, and so on, make a strong potential material in various fields. These applications are mainly derived from in situ formation of surface functional groups, high chemical stability, biocompatibility, and easy interaction with substrates, etc. Mostly, the research applications of CDs concentrate on the labeling of biological species, drug delivery, and sensing in consequent biomedical applications. However, the detection of the fungal species/spores present in the environment by using CDs is rarely reported. Herein, we demonstrate CDs-based thin film as a sensor for detection of fungal spores from the environment. The procedure of detection is based on fluorescence, observed in the film of carbon dots deposited on quartz plates by using the Blodgett technique. It is observed that the CDs film shows quenching in the fluorescence intensity by the substrate, namely, fungal spores’ (&lt;i&gt;Aspergillus niger&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Penicillium chrysogenum&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Alternaria alternata&lt;/i&gt;). The effective features of the present detector system are easy fabrication, low cost, high stability, and a green and economical procedure of synthesis. The process of detecting fungal spores even at low concentration from the atmosphere is relatively fast when compared to presently used methods. Finally, real-world feasibility of the sensor film is tested by its successful application for the determination of the presence fungal spores in the environment. Furthermore, CDs have been also successfully applied for the bio-labeling of &lt;i&gt;Staphylococcus aureus&lt;/i&gt; (Gram-positive) and &lt;i&gt;Escherichia coli&lt;/i&gt; (Gram-negative) bacterial systems.&lt;/p&gt;
