Carbon Quantum Dots: A sustainable and eco-friendly nanomaterial for the future

The world of nanotechnology is continuously evolving, and one of the most promising advancements in this field is the development of carbon quantum dots (CQDs). These tiny particles, smaller than a nanometer, have the potential to revolutionize various industries due to their unique properties and eco-friendly nature. As the world grapples with the urgent need to shift towards sustainable and environmentally friendly practices, CQDs emerge as a beacon of hope.

Carbon quantum dots are derived from carbon, one of the most abundant elements on earth. This makes them a cost-effective option compared to other nanomaterials. They are also non-toxic and biocompatible, making them safe for use in a variety of applications, including biomedicine, energy, and environmental science. Moreover, their small size and high surface area make them highly efficient in their functionality.

Nanoco Group PLC (LON:NANO) leads the world in the research, development and large-scale manufacture of heavy metal-free nanomaterials for use in displays, lighting, vertical farming, solar energy and bio-imaging.
