The process involves a bottom-up photochemical stitching mechanism of the free radicals generated by irradiation of ultraviolet photons (lambda = 248 nm) on o-dichlorobenzene. The GQDs are further demonstrated to be of importance as fluorescent nanoprobes in bioimaging of cells.image</p>10abioimaging10afree radicals10agraphene quantum dots10aphotochemical stitching10aUV laser1 aGokhale, Rohan1 aSingh, Pooja  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/blue-luminescent-graphene-quantum-dots-photochemical-stitching-small-aromatic-molecules-0
