Here, we report a novel, facile and green approach for the synthesis of highly fluorescent
carbon dots (CDs) with 28% quantum yield by utilizing onion waste as a precursor and by …

Abstract Carbon dots (CDs) are 0-D nanomaterials with unique structural and optical
properties. Compared to fluorescent organic agents or semiconductor quantum dots, CDs …

Water-soluble, fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) have been successfully synthesized from
waste paper. The as-prepared CDs, with an amorphous structure and small particle size …

We report a facile and eco-friendly strategy for the fabrication of green fluorescent carbon
nanodots (CDs), and demonstrate their applications for bio-imaging, patterning, and …

Amino acid functionalized carbon dots (CDs) were synthesized in a simple and cost effective
bottom up approach. Citric acid was used as the source of the carbon core and three amino …

A simple approach for the synthesis of fluorescent carbon dots (CQDs) has been developed
by the hydrothermal treatment of gelatin in the presence only pure water. The as …
