A novel carbon quantum dots-enhanced chemiluminescence method for the sensitive determination of iodide ion

TL;DR: In this paper , P and Cl doped carbon dots (P/Cl-CDs) were prepared by a simple hydrothermal method, and an obvious chemiluminescence (CL) signal was obtained when the P/ClCDs coexisted with acidic KMnO4, and then a stronger CL signal appeared when NaHSO3 was added into the mixed solution of KMnO 4 and P/CL-CD.
