Facile green synthesis of fingernails derived carbon quantum dots for Cu2sensing and photodegradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol

The present study reports a facile method to prepare carbon quantum dots (CQDs) via hydrothermal treatment using human fingernails as a green precursor. Fingernails derived CQDs (FN-CQDs) could selectively detect copper ions (Cu2+) at the concentration as low as 1 nM. Different weightage of FN-CQDs...
