Abstract
Carbon quantum dots (CQD) with down and up-conversion photoluminescence (PL) properties have been synthesized through low-temperature carbonization in a facile one step green method from cabbage as the natural source of carbon. The physiochemical and optical properties of the resultant CQD were performed using transmission electron microscopy, confocal laser scanning microscopy and various spectroscopic methods. The CQD with a quantum yield of...
