Description
Abstract: In this work, carbon quantum dots (CQDs) were synthesized from banana peels using a cost-effective green hydrothermal method. The CQDs were characterized using UV-Vis and PL spectroscopy. UV-visible spectrophotometric investigations confirmed the presence of carbon dots showing two absorption peaks at ~252 nm and ~282 nm. The CQDs exhibit blue luminescence when exposed to ultraviolet light. Furthermore, the photocatalytic activity of the prepared CQDs was examined in the degradation of the organic dye methylene blue (MB).
