An international team of researchers, including
researchers from Friedrich-Alexander Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg
(FAU) headed by Prof. Dr. Dirk M. Guldi have now managed to
identify the fundamental problems relating to the photophysics and
photochemistry of carbon nanocolloids (CNC), and ascertain possible
approaches for research into these readily available, non-toxic and
adaptable nanomaterials.
