Abstract

In article number 1902641, Robert Y. L. Wang, Shiow-Yi Chen, Chih-Ching Huang, and co-workers develop a simple one-step dry heating process which allows the synthesis of core–shell carbon quantum dots derived from curcumin. The obtained carbon quantum dots possess excellent antiviral activity against enterovirus 71 through a complex inhibitory mechanism.
