Carbon quantum dots and carbon layer double protected cuprous oxide for efficient visible light CO2 reduction

We designed a composite of carbon quantum dots (CQDs) with a carbon layer (CL) covering Cu2O nanocatalysts (CL@CQDs/Cu2O), which exhibited better photocatalytic performance than pure Cu2O and CQDs/Cu2O particles with good stability and efficiency for CO2 conversion.
