Synthesis, properties, and utilization of carbon quantum dots as photocatalysts on degradation of organic dyes: A mini review

Catalysis Communications, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 187, P. 106914 - 106914

Published: Feb. 1, 2024

This review highlights Carbon Quantum Dots (CQDs) as promising photocatalysts for breaking down organic pollutants, particularly in advancing CQDs-based systems degrading dyes. CQDs, used alone or combined with semiconductors, enhance performance. In scenarios narrow bandgaps, CQDs assist separating charges, whereas wider they enable visible/NIR activity through up-conversion luminescence. When integrated into Z-scheme heterostructures, reduce recombination by facilitating electron transfer. Synthesis methods—both top-down and bottom-up—are explored along crucial physicochemical properties. Furthermore, modifying doping integrating functional groups on their surface adjusts characteristics, more effective CQDs-modified future research.
