Carbon dots were originally found and reported as surface-passivated small carbon nanoparticles, where the effective surface passivation was the chemical functionalization of the carbon nanoparticles with organic molecules. Understandably, the...

Carbon dots (or carbon quantum dots) are small (less than 10 nm) and luminescent carbon nanoparticles with some form of surface passivation. As an emerging class of nanomaterials, carbon dots have found wide applications in medicine, bioimaging, sensing, electronic devices, and catalysis. In this review, we focus on the recent advancements of carbon dots for sensing and killing microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Synthesis, functionalization, and a toxicity profile of these carbon dots are presented. We also discuss the underlying mechanisms of carbon dot-based sensing and killing of microorganisms.

We investigated the effects of different growth conditions and surface passivation on the growth of CdSe quantum dots (QDs). The synthesis of CdSe QDs by pyrolysis of organometallic reagents was performed by using the hot-matrix method. In order to modify the size and quality of CdSe QDs, we controlled the growth temperature from 250 °C to 350 °C and the relative amount of trioctylphosphin (as the ligand of the Cd and Se precursors) to be injected into the coordinating solvent trioctylphosphineoxide. Moreover, an effective surface passivation of mono-disperse CdSe QDs was achieved by overcoating them with a larger band gap material, such as ZnS.
