The morphology features of the synthesized N-GQDs/TiO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> nanocomposites are seen to exhibited in cubic shape. The average lateral size of the synthesized nanocomposites is found to be ~5.1 nm. UV-Vis absorption spectra show vastly improvement in the visible light range when N-GQDs is introduced to TiO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>. The photocatalytic activity clearly demonstrated its solar light harvesting capability of prepared nanocomposites by photodegrading 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) under sunlight irradiation.</jats:p>journal-article
