In recent years, fluorescent carbon nanoparticles have attracted considerable research interest in several research fields due to their multifunctional properties such as low-cost and simple preparation, easy functionalization, sensitivity, excellent biocompatibility, low toxicity compared with metal and semiconductor nanoparticles, high photo-stability, cytocompatibility and easy dispersibility in aqueous medium. These properties have opened the door for a broad range of high-performance applications.
Fluorescent Carbon Nanoparticles: Fundamentals and Applications examines the current state of the art, of recent progress in fluorescent carbon nanoparticles research. Prime attention is given to synthesis and processing methods, structure, and properties, as well as characterization, surface functionalization, and various applications.
With expert contributions from across the globe the book provides an outstanding reference resource for anyone involved in the field of fluorescent carbon nanoparticles utilized in a broad range of high-performance industrial applications.
