In this work, biomaterial derived from wild mushrooms was used to synthesize psilocybin-derived carbon nanosheets (P-CNSs). The bioactive substance psilocybin serves as a sustainable precursor that ensures an environmentally friendly synthesis procedure. Spectroscopic measurements confirm the structural and functional properties of the P-CNSs. The naturally extracted P-CNSs demonstrated substantial photothermal conversion efficiency under both visible and infrared light. Their adaptability for thermal applications was shown by their medium-specific response. Furthermore, in photothermal de-icing, P-CNSs effectively melted ice under visible light exposure, making it a crucial application. Additionally, density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT calculations were performed to optimize the structures of psilocin, baeocystin, and norbaeocystin, which show the electronic transitions responsible for the appearance of absorption and fluorescence behavior. This work draws attention to the inclusion of psilocybin in green synthesis to produce an affordable and sustainable solution for environmental issues brought to the forefront by the advantages of environmentally benign manufacture and multipurpose use, especially in thermal control and environmental remediation. 2026 American Chemical Society Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available American Chemical Society Relation A related resource ISSN: 7437463; CODEN: LANGD Language A language of the resource English Type The nature or genre of the resource Article Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Restricted Access; Hardcopy may be available in the library Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource online
