TL;DR: This work reports on a novel and simple hydrothermal approach for the cutting of GSs into surface-functionalized GQDs, which were found to exhibit bright blue photoluminescence (PL), which has never been observed in GSs and GNRs owing to their large lateral sizes.

TL;DR: Li et al. as discussed by the authors reported that highly disordered graphene nanosheets can find promising applications in high-capacity Li ion batteries because of their exceptionally high reversible capacities and good cyclic stability.

TL;DR: The gram-scale synthesis of single-crystalline GQDs by a facile molecular fusion route under mild and green hydrothermal conditions is reported, which bestowed with excellent optical properties such as brightexcitonic fluorescence, strong excitonic absorption bands extending to the visible region, large molar extinction coefficients and long-term photostability.

TL;DR: A unique emission that is strongly dependent on pH, solvent, spin, and excitation wavelength was observed in high blue luminescent carbon nanoparticles prepared by a one-step pyrolytic route from ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid salts.

TL;DR: Water-soluble and well-crystallized graphene quantum dots with lateral size about 3.0 nm were fabricated by a hydrothermal cutting method and their photoluminescence (PL) properties as well as the potential for bioimaging were demonstrated as mentioned in this paper.
