Advances in the application of carbon quantum dots derived from marine biomass
China's vast ocean area is home to abundant marine biomass resources,which present immense potential for green and efficient utilization through innovative technologies.Scientists have long focused on using rapidly developing nanotechnologies to realize utilization and transformation of these marine biomass resources in a green and efficient way.Among nanomaterials,carbon quantum dots(CQDs),a kind of carbon-based nanomaterial with a simple synthesis process,have attracted significant attention owing to their excellent fluorescence properties,rich surface functional groups and good biocompatibility.Marine biomass resources provide a rich carbon source for synthesizing CQDs,which can then be applied across various fields.This study reviews recent progress in using marine biomass as precursors for CQDs synthesis and explores their diverse applications,offering new insights for harnessing marine material resources.
