It was found and recently reported that small carbon nanoparticles can be surface-
passivated by organic or biomolecules to become strongly fluorescent. These fluorescent …

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 …

Nanoscale carbon particles have emerged as versatile precursors for a new class of highly
fluorescent nanomaterials that resemble semiconductor quantum dots. The surface …

Carbon-based “quantum” dots or carbon dots are surface-functionalized small carbon
nanoparticles. For bright fluorescence emissions, the carbon nanoparticles may be surface …

Carbon dots (CDs) possess superior fluorescent properties in that they do not blink, are
biocompatible, chemically inert, have small size and well tunable photoluminescence (PL) …

Carbon nanoparticles upon simple surface passivation exhibit bright photoluminescence.
Reported here is a new finding that these carbon dots are also strongly two-photon …

In the most recent decade, carbon dots have drawn intensive attention and triggered
substantial investigation. Carbon dots manifest superior merits, including excellent …

Carbon dots (C-dots) are often synthesized, modified, and studied as a mixture.
Unfortunately, the spectroscopic and biological properties measured for such C-dots …

Carbon Dots are an emerging class of carbon-based nanoparticles, which since their
discovery have attracted tremendous attention because of their exceptional fluorescent …

The specifically synthesized and selected carbon dots of relatively high fluorescence
quantum yields were evaluated in their fluorescence labeling of cells. For the cancer cell …
