Carbon dots (CDs) enriched with functionalities are of great interest in biological and electrochemical applications. Herein, CDs of an average diameter of 2.5 nm were synthesized from palm kernel shells (PKS) using the solvothermal method with N-N dimethylformamide as the solvent. These CDs were sh...
