Key Points

Distinct nucleation pathways of lignin-derived carbon dots were observed under different alcohol-solvothermal treatments.
Enhanced biocompatibility and tunable fluorescence were prominent features of the carbon dots synthesized in the study.
This observational analysis employed varying hydrothermal methods and identified divergence in synthesis outcomes.
These findings suggest potential implications for improving lignin valorization techniques and the efficiency of carbon dot production.

Implication

Analysis reveals distinct nucleation pathways of lignin-derived carbon dots under varying conditions, suggesting enhanced synthesis methods.

Abstract

Lignin-derived carbon quantum dots (L-CQDs) offer a promising avenue for lignin valorization due to their superior biocompatibility, tunable fluorescence, and diverse applications. Notably, conventional hydrothermal methods for L-CQDs synthesis suffer...
