Multicolor afterglow patterns with transparent and traceless features are important for the exploration of new functionalities applications. Herein, we report a direct in situ patterning technique fabricating carbon dots (CDs) based on laser writing (LDW) first time. We explore facile step-scanning method that reduces heat-affected zone avoids uneven heating, thus producing fine-resolution CD pattern minimum line width 80 μm. Unlike previous LDW-induced luminescence patterns, patterned films transparent, which is mainly attributed to uniform heat distribution gentle temperature rise process. Interestingly, by regulating parameters precursors, an increased carbonization oxidation degree CDs could be obtained, enabling time-dependent, tunable colors from blue red. In addition, demonstrate their potential applications fabrication flexible stretchable optoelectronics.
