Abstract
Ionic liquid mediated carbon dots (IL-CDs) are being emerged as new sensing probe for the detection of various chemical entities. Their unique features i.e. physical, chemical and optical properties along with their eco-friendly nature are the main sources of attraction for researchers. The induction of ionic moieties in addition to their naturally existing surface functionalities such as ―OH, ―COOH, ―NH2 on CDs make them a good option for sensing applications. This review focuses on a systematic literature related to the employment of IL-CDs as sensing probes for various chemical species. Moreover, IL-CDs have been critically evaluated compared to ordinary CDs in terms of structural difference, versatility in mode of sensing, types of entities being sensed and performance efficiency to highlight the spaces which have to address in near future.
