Abstract:
Carbon quantum dots are new class of nanomaterial under 10nm in size. Carbon quantum dots are cost effective, harmless to the ecosystem, super water solubility, great photostability, and low cytotoxicity, biocompatible, and show enhanced optical properties, making them prevalent nanomaterial for metals sensing. In chemical and biological detecting exploration, design and synthesizing of different sensors is a question of first significance. Usually, production of specific sensors always requires time and cost. Presently, the advancement going with utilization of waste materials for the production of innovative valuable material have been significantly progressed. For the same purpose in this study we have synthesized and characterized carbon dots from biomass waste and utilized as metal ions detection. CQDs were synthesized by utilizing one step hydrothermal treatment from biomass waste and characterized by FTIR, XRD and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The identification of metal ions was carried by synthesizing series of metal ions solution and added in CQDs solution, results were noticed. Synthesis of CQDs was confirmed by characterization techniques and spectroscopy results for metalions detection in sample. The cost-effective CQDs obtained by reusage of biomass waste, has great biocompatibility and showed potential capacity for sensing of metal ions in sample.
