Problems solved by technology

[0003] So far, many methods such as laser exfoliation of graphene, electrochemical oxidation, arc discharge method, solvent hydrothermal method, chemical oxidation method and pyrolysis method have been used for the preparation of carbon quantum dots. However, most of these methods The synthesis process is cumbersome, the raw materials are expensive and the conditions are harsh. These methods are not only uneconomical and environmentally friendly, but also due to the high cost of synthesis, to a large extent limit the large-scale production and practical application of fluorescent carbon quantum dots.
