Since carbon dots (CDs) were reported in 2004, they have been widely used various fields due to their outstanding optical properties. However, most CDs are self-quenched the direct π–π interaction solid-state aggregation. This shortcoming limits wide application of CDs, because numerous optoelectronic devices and sensors usually require photoluminescent materials solid state. Therefore, designing preparing with multicolor emission is necessary. Here, fluorescence (SSF) prepared via a one-step solvothermal method, using MA APTES as raw materials. Through adjusting ratio materials, emitting green, yellow, orange colors obtained. The spectrum ranges from 490–625 nm, QYs 34.06%, 38.07%, 20.37%, respectively. For main reason for that Si–O, Si–C, Si–N bonds generated during formation process can prevent between graphitized cores. red shift mechanism liquid attributed decrease particle size increase degree aggregation within unit range. In addition, based on these excellent photoluminescence properties, we colored light-emitting diodes—the CIEs (0.22, 0.41), (0.38, 0.47), (0.50, 0.43) (Commission Internationale de l'Elcairage coordinate)—and CDs/epoxy films high transparency stability.
