Luminescent materials have enormous potential in many different areas. The conversion of
biomass resources to functional luminescent materials has attracted significant attention …

Carbon dots (CDs) have been widely studied since their discovery in 2004 as a green
substitute of the traditional quantum dots due to their excellent photoluminescence (PL) and …

A major challenge in preparing nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) from the world's most
abundant material, cellulose, is its limited chemical accessibility, which results in low yield …

Rapid population and economic growth, excessive use of fossil fuels, and climate change
have contributed to a serious turn towards environmental management and sustainability …

A scalable synthetic procedure for fabricating photoactive carbon dots (CD) from
microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) is presented. The MCC was transformed into a photoactive …

The microstructural evolution of highly ordered graphite during high temperature
carbonization of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) was traced in the temperature range of 1000 …

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) are a class of nanoscale biopolymers produced from
