At present, the actual mechanism of the photoluminescence (PL) of fluorescent carbon dots
(CDs) is still an open debate among researchers. Because of the variety of CDs, it is highly …

Fluorescent carbon nanoparticles or carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are a new class of carbon
nanomaterials that have emerged recently and have garnered much interest as potential …

A facile approach for preparation of photoluminescent (PL) carbon dots (CDs) is reported.
The three resulting CDs emit bright and stable red, green and blue (RGB) colors of …

The emerging graphene quantum dots (GQDs) and carbon dots (C‐dots) have gained
tremendous attention for their enormous potentials for biomedical applications, owing to …

Truly fluorescent excitation-dependent carbon dots are prepared, and the relationship
between their chemical composition and fluorescent emission is discussed. Furthermore …

Quantum dots (QDs) generally refer to nanoscale particles of conventional semiconductors
that are subject to the quantum-confinement effect, though other nanomaterials of similar …

C-dots (< 3k), C-dots (3–10k), and C-dots (10–30k), respectively. The X-ray diffraction (XRD)
patterns of the C-dots (Figure 1 D) were obtained to identify their crystalline nature. The …

Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are established as excellent photosensitizers in combination
with a molecular catalyst for solar light driven hydrogen production in aqueous solution. The …

A new type of carbon dots (CD-Asp) with targeting function toward brain cancer glioma was
synthesized via a straightforward pyrolysis route by using d-glucose and l-aspartic acid as …

Although reports have shown shifts in carbon dot emission wavelengths resulting from
varying the excitation wavelength, this excitation‐dependent emission does not constitute …
