Melon rind was chosen as the base material because it is an abundant organic waste and has the potential as a carbon precursor. The synthesis process was carried out by microwave irradiation for 8 minutes, followed by characterisazion using Uv-Vis spectrophotometer and Photoluminescence (PL). Characterization results show that c-dots have absorbance peaks at wavelengths of 260 nm and 305 nm, as well as peak emission intensity at 453 nm. After the addition of FeCl3, there is a shift in the absorbance peak to 257 nm and 302 nm, and the emission peak to 448 nm, which indicates the interaction between Fe3+ ions and the surface of c-dots. The decrease in absorbance and fluorescence shift indicate that c-dots from melon rind have sensitivity to Fe3+ ions and can be used as a sensor to detect iron (III) chloride contamination precisely and efficiently. This research contributes to the utilization of organic waste and the development of environmentally friendly nanocarbon-based sensor materials. date: 2025 type: Thesis type: NonPeerReviewed format: text language: id identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/50870/1/AZFA%20RESTU%20PUTRA_220210027_FULL%20TEXT.pdf format: text language: id identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/50870/3/AZFA%20RESTU%20PUTRA_220210027_01.pdf format: text language: id identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/50870/4/AZFA%20RESTU%20PUTRA_220210027_02.pdf format: text language: id identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/50870/5/AZFA%20RESTU%20PUTRA_220210027_03.pdf format: text language: id identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/50870/6/AZFA%20RESTU%20PUTRA_220210027_04.pdf format: text language: id identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/50870/7/AZFA%20RESTU%20PUTRA_220210027_05.pdf format: text language: id identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/50870/8/AZFA%20RESTU%20PUTRA_220210027_REF.pdf format: text language: id identifier: https://eprints.untirta.ac.id/50870/9/AZFA%20RESTU%20PUTRA_220210027_LAMP.pdf identifier: Putra, Azfa Restu (2025) GREEN SYNTHESIS CARBON DOTS DARI LIMBAH KULIT MELON MENGGUNAKAN TEKNIK MICROWAVE UNTUK MENDETEKSI CEMARAN BESI (III) KLORIDA.
