摘要
N-doped carbon dots were successfully synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method by using edible winter melon as the source material. Mono-dispersed CDs 4.5-5.2 nm in diameter were achieved in a quantum yield (QY) of 7.51%. The photoluminescent CDs were demonstrated to be effective bio-imaging agents for hepG2 (liver hepatocellular carcinoma) cells.
