Synthesis of Carbon Dots from Orange Carrot Juice

Synthesis of Carbon Dots

In this research. scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) image
confirmed that CDs are almost spherical in shape and the size is
around 6.40 – 25.76 nm. The energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX)
spectrum showed the existence of carbon in the samples. The
Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum of carrot extract (CE)
and CDs is explained that the -C=O peak was found in 1740 and
1650 cm-1 in the CE, but it is completely lost in CDs. This result
indicates that the carbonyl group has undergone carbonization and
producing luminescent CDs
