In this current research, carbon quantum dots were synthesized by solvothermal synthesis method, using different solvents. The different solvents which were used for synthesis of carbon dots were 5-Sulphosalicylic acid, and Salicylic acid.In this method 1 per cent salicylic acid and 2 per cent 5-Sulphosalicyic acid was used with ethanol in hydrothermal bomb for 4 hours at 140 0 C. After the synthesis period a luminescence was seen with both the solvents. The solvents produced green, violet and blue fluorescence at different wavelengths of UV light.How to view point the article : Soni, Ramendra, Soni, Unnati, Tandon, Bhavana, Kumar, Ashish and Kumar, Sandeep (2016).

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
