Bio based nitrogen doped carbon dots (N-CDs) were obtained from empty fruit bunch carboxymethylcellulose and ethylenediamine (EDA) through one-pot hydrothermal carbonization route. The optimum as-formed N-CDs were thoroughly characterized via Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution T...
