Blue emissive N-doped carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs) were prepared through a convenient and sustainable microwave synthesis method using citric acid monohydrate (CA) and urea as carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively, with an optimum molar ratio of 1:3 (CA:Urea). The surface functional groups, morp...
