Quantum Dots Compete at the Acme of MXene Family for the Optimal Catalysis

Highlights All the synthesis routes and surfaced-modified strategy of MXene-derived quantum dots (MQDs), the synthesis of MQDs-based nanocomposites, and advanced characterization techniques of MQDs are fully covered. Catalytic application is classified and discussed by judging the roles of MQDs. Current challenge and prospect are proposed for promoting the development and catalytic application of MQDs.
