As a new type of fluorescent nanomaterials, carbon dots (CDs) have exhibited excellent
photoluminescence properties with tunable emission and high quantum yields, hence they …

Similar to fullerenes, carbon nanotubes and graphene, carbon dots (CDs) are causing a lot
of research work in their own right. CDs are a type of surface-passivated quantum dot that …

Lignin in black liquor can be used to manufacture carbon nanomaterials on a large scale.
However, the effect of nitrogen doping on the physicochemical properties and photocatalytic …

Mg/N doped-carbon quantum dots (CQDs) with dual drug targeting and cell imaging
properties was synthesized. Mg/N doped-CQDs synthesized by a hydrothermal method …

The propensity of carbon dots (CDs) to undergo significant self-quenching in the solid state,
whether due to excessive resonance energy transfer or direct molecule collision, has …

Herein, a novel “turn-on” fluorescent sensor was designed based on nitrogen-doped carbon
dots (N-CDs) for the highly sensitive determination of morin. The N-CDs with orange …

Carbon dot (CDs) materials are typically hindered by aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ)
effect. However, there are limitations in terms of their development and application. The …

Homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation processes are employed to synthesize
carbon quantum dots (CDs) by a solvothermal method, with o-phenylenediamine used as …

Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are a promising technology for obtaining energy in wastewater.
Effective extracellular electron transfer is one of the key factors for its practical application. In …

Abstract The Ti-MIL-125 metal-organic framework (MOF) functions as a nanoreactor,
producing carbon quantum dots (CQDs) within its structure and forming CQD/MOF …
