To obtain graphene-based fluorescent materials, one of the effective approaches is to
convert one-dimensional (1D) graphene to 0D graphene quantum dots (GQDs), yielding an …

Carbon dots, generally referring to small carbon nanoparticles with various levels of surface
passivation, have emerged as a new class of quantum dot-like fluorescent nanomaterials …

A simple and facile one-pot synthesis of fluorescent carbon dots from orange waste peels
was performed using the hydrothermal carbonization method at a mild temperature (180° C) …

Carbon dots (Cdots) are an important probe for imaging and sensing applications because
of their fluorescence property, good biocompatibility, and low toxicity. However, complex …

The emergence of photoluminescent carbon-based nanomaterials has shown exciting
potential in the development of benign nanoprobes. However, the in vivo kinetic behaviors …

Selective oxidation of alcohols is a fundamental and significant transformation for the large-
scale production of fine chemicals, UV and visible light driven photocatalytic systems for …

Surface chemistry provides an alternative approach to modulate the emission colour and
efficiency of graphene quantum dots. We systematically investigated the surface chemistry of …

Photoluminescent carbon dots (C-dots) were prepared using the improved nitric acid
oxidation method. The C-dots were characterized by tapping-mode atomic force microscopy …

A facile hydrothermal method was used to synthesize luminescent carbon dots from single-
