Boosting the photocatalytic activity of ZnO-NPs through the incorporation of C-dot and preparation of nanocomposite materials

Due to their applications in cosmetology, medicine, antibacterial and other fields, zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) are among the nanoscale materials experiencing exponential growth. In contrast, pure ZnO-NPs have been reported to have a very large energy bandgap, a large exaction binding energy,...
