Experts in #carbondots and #singleatom #photocatalysis under one roof.

We hosted the international #NanoLumCat 2026 workshop at IT4Innovations, focused on nanomaterials for #renewableenergy and #environmentaltechnologies. ✨

Supported by the Moravian-Silesian Region (Global Experts Programme).

The accessibility of the fluorescent centres in carbon dots for use in contaminant detection and catalysis has been revealed - IT4Innovations An international team of scientists, including experts from IT4Innovations, has revealed where excited states are localised in carbon dots and how accessible they are to the surrounding environment. U...

Where do excited states form in #carbondots – and why does it matter? 🌟

#Supercomputer simulations + experiments show fluorescent domains stay accessible to solvents, enabling direct reactions for #sensing & #photocatalysis.
