Spectroscopic Characteristics of Carbon Dots (C-Dots) Derived from Carbon Fibers and Conversion to Sulfur-Bridged C-Dots Nanosheets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We synthesized sub‐10 nm carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) consistent with photoluminescent carbon dots (C-dots) from carbon fiber starting material. The production of different C-dots fractions was monitored over seven days. During the course of the reaction,

Carbon “quantum” dots for bioapplications

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 2021
Carbon “quantum” dots or carbon dots (CDots) exploit and enhance the intrinsic photoexcited state properties and processes of small carbon nanoparticles via effective nanoparticle surface passivation by chemical functionalization with organic species.

Reversible Photoswitching of Carbon Dots [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2015
AbstractWe present a method of reversible photoswitching in carbon nanodots with red emission. A mechanism of electron transfer is proposed. The cationic dark state, formed by the exposure of red light, is revived back to the bright state with the very short exposure of blue light.

Electronic transport properties of double-wall carbon nanotubes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We studied the discretized electronic spectra of double-wall carbon nanotube (DWCNT) quantum dots (QDs) in the Coulomb-blockade regime. At low temperatures, the stability diagrams show a clear and regular eight-electron periodicity, which is due to the ...

Resculpting carbon dots via electrochemical etching

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Abstract Substantial efforts are directed into exploring the structure-properties relationships of photoluminescent Carbon dots (C-dots). This study unravels a resculpting mechanism in C-dots that is triggered by electrochemical etching and proceeds via extensive surface oxidation and carbon–carbon breakage. The process results in the

Carbon Dot‐Based Biosensors [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, 2021
0D fluorescent carbon dots (CDs), consisting of sp2/sp3 carbon skeletons with functional groups, have the advantages of good chemical stability, high biocompatibility, excellent dispersibility in water, and low photobleaching, as well as low toxicity and low cost. These interesting features allow CDs to be applicable in the field of biological imaging,
