In recent times green and economical processes as well as sources have been in demand for the synthesis of carbon dots (C‐dots). This study demonstrates the smart utilization of seaweed‐derived polysaccharide as a green precursor for the synthesis of blue‐emitting fluorescent C‐dots using a simple,...
