Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) have emerged as promising materials for optoelectronic applications on account of carbon's intrinsic merits high stability, low cost, and environment-friendliness. However, the CQDs usually give broad emission with full width at half maximum exceeding 80 nm, which fundamentally limit their display applications. Here we demonstrate multicolored narrow bandwidth (full 30 nm) from triangular a yield up to 54-72%. Detailed structural optical characterizations together...
