“…2010;Hu et al, 2013;Li et al, 2013;Bourlinos et al, 2008). As a result, it makes them promising candidates for numerous exciting applications, such as bioimaging Wang et al, 2011), photocatalysis , LED (Guo et al, 2012;Wang et al, 2010), energy conversion (Chandra et al, 2013), photovoltaic devices (Gupta et al, 2011;Feng et al, 2009;Yan et al,2010), medical diagnosis (Kong et al,2012) and sensing (Zhu et al, 2013;Qu et al, 2013). Now, many approaches for the synthesis of CDs have been reported, such as combustion, ultrasonic treatment, arc discharge, electrochemical oxidation, laser ablation, thermal treatment, acid reflux and microwave methods.…”
