Preparation and Application of Fluorescent Carbon Dots

الملخص EN

Fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) are a novel type of fluorescent nanomaterials, which not only possess the specific quantum confinement effects of nanomaterials due to the small size of nanomaterials, but also have good biocompatibility and high fluorescence.

Meanwhile, fluorescence CDs overcome the shortcomings of high toxicity of traditional nanomaterials.

Moreover, the preparation procedure of fluorescent CDs is simple and easy.

Therefore, fluorescent CDs have great potential applied in photocatalysis, biochemical sensing, bioimaging, drug delivery, and other related areas.

In this paper, recent hot researches on fluorescent CDs are reviewed and some problems in the progress of fluorescent CDs are also summarized.

At last, a future outlook in this direction is presented.
