The carbon dots were synthesized by an established one-pot hydrothermal method and characterized by transmission electron microscope, X-ray diffractometer, UV-Vis absorption spectrometer and fluorescence spectrophotometer. The carbon dots/Fe^（3＋） composite was obtained by aqueous mixing of carbon dots and FeCl_3, and its fluorescence property was characterized by fluorescence spectrophotometer. The fluorescence of carbon dots was quenched by aqueous Fe^（3＋） cations, resulting in the low fluorescence intensity of the carbon dots/Fe^（3＋） composite.
