Luminescent Surface Quaternized Carbon Dots

Thermal oxidation of a salt precursor made from the acid−base combination of tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane and betaine hydrochloride results in light-emitting surface quaternized carbon dots that are water-dispersible, display anion exchange properties, and exhibit uniform size/surface charge.
