Abstract

High yields of hydrophilic carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) were prepared by the controlled carbonization of sucrose. Green luminescent CNPs and non-luminous CNPs were effectively separated by dialysis. After surface functionalisation with PEG2000N, the non-luminous CNPs successfully emitted a blue fluorescence.
