Microwave-Assisted Dual Fabrication of Graphene Quantum Dots and Turbostratic Carbon: Implications for Biomedical and Photocatalytic Applications
Carbon-based nanomaterials have attracted tremendous interest as metal-free fluorophores and photocatalysts due to their unique optoelectronic properties and (photo)stability. Herein, we report the ultrarapid (75 s) microwave-assisted synthesis of two distinct carbon-based materials using benzoic acid (BA) as the sol...
