Graphene quantum dots are quasi-zero-dimensional nanomaterials, and their internal electrons are restricted in all directions, so the quantum confinement effect is particularly significant and has many unique properties. This may bring revolutionary changes in the fields of electronics, optoelectronics and electromagnetics. Used in solar cells, electronic equipment, optical dyes, biomarkers and co...

Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) refer to a new type of carbon based fluorescent material with a graphene layer size of less than 100nm and a number of layers of less than 10. Generally speaking, graphene quantum dots include a large class of carbon fluorescent materials and their derivatives with similar structures and properties, including graphene quantum dots, oxidized graphene quantum dots, and p...

Quantum dots (QDs) refer to semiconductor nanoparticles with a size smaller than the Bohr radius of the exciton and exhibiting quantum confinement effects. Due to the quantum confinement effect, the fluorescence emission of quantum dots is related to their diameter and chemical composition. By compounding with semiconductor surfaces, their optical and photochemical properties can be enhanced. Trad...

Synthesis of Carbon Quantum Dots The synthesis of carbon quantum dots can be mainly divided into two categories: top-down method and bottom-up method. Through the pre-treatment, preparation, and subsequent processing, carbon quantum dots can be controlled in size, passivated on the surface, doped with heteroatoms, and nanocomposites to meet the requirements. Top-down approach Top down method: lase...
