A novel fluorescence carbon dots (CS-CDs) were prepared via a one-step hydrothermal approach using chitosan and urea as precursors. CS-CDs exhibited good selectivity and sensitivity of fluorescence response to Cr (VI) in a wide range with a detection limit of 0.59 μM. More interestingly, CS-CDs-based fluorescent hydrogel sensors were further developed for quantitative detection of Cr (VI) in water. The fluorescence signals of the composite were recorded by a smartphone and converted to grayscale parameters linearly related to concentration of Cr (VI) by Image J software. This composite showed a broad linear range of 10–300 μM and a low detection limit of 2.83 μM. All results demonstrate the great potential for the portable, low-cost and green detection of Cr (VI) in practical application.

In this work, hydroquinone, o -phenylenediamine and terephthalic acid were used as reaction precursors to synthesize carbon dots (h-CDs) by a one-step solvothermal method. Our experimental results demonstrated the as-prepared functionalized h-CDs have not only excellent optical properties but also interestingly chemical and physical properties. The emission peak of the obtained h-CDs shifts gradually towards the red region with increasing water content in organic solvent . This was visually manifest as a change in color. Therefore, the h-CDs can be used as the colorimetric fluorescent probe to detect water content in organic solvents. Moreover, it is also particularly sensitive to Cu 2+ and thus could be used as fluorescent probe to detect Cu 2+ content in water with detection limit of 1.8 × 10 −4 mmol. This investigation provides a new way for the development of carbon dots (CDs) as multifunctional fluorescent probes.

A fluorescence metal-organic framework [Zn 3 (APT) 4 ]·2H 2 O (Zn-APT) was synthesized from Zn(NO 3 ) 2 ·6H 2 O and 2-amino-6-purinethiol (ATP) by the solvothermal reaction. Zn-APT has a novel compact structure with a nbo topology type. The analyses of single-crystal diffraction reveal that Zn-APT crystallizes in a cubic crystal system and F d 3 ¯ c space group. Based on a large amount of π-conjugated organic ligands of ATP and d 10 metal center of Zn 2+ , Zn-APT can emit strong luminescence. It can be used as a fluorescent probe to detect Fe 3+ ion effectively. The detection limit is 0.28 μM and K sv (quenching efficiency) is 2.1 × 10 4 M −1 . In addition, Zn-APT can adsorb hemoporphyrin dihydrochloride to produce a red-brown crystal Zn-APT-PH. Interestingly, it can also be used to detect Fe 2+ ion efficiently with the detection limit of 0.12 μM and K sv of 1.9 × 10 4 M −1 .

We designed and synthesized an amphiphilic conjugated polymer P1 based on the 2,2′-biimidazole unit, and then investigated its sensing properties as an aggregation-based platform. P1 shows multicolor emission in organic solvents at different water contents, and is demonstrated to be the first multicolor fluorescent sensor for water. And it exhibits visually noticeable multicolor fluorescence response to Ag+ in aqueous dioxane and to Hg2+ ions in aqueous ethanol. In addition, the polymer–Hg2+ complex system can be used as an efficient cysteine fluorescent sensor based on the aggregation–disaggregation strategy. These results validate P1 as an efficient multifunctional platform with multicolor fluorescence response.

Herein, phenylalanine-bound carbon dots (CDs) with dual fluorescence emission peak behavior were reported, one of which was excitation-dependent and the other was not. The amino and carboxyl groups on the surface of CDs had a certain influence on their fluorescence. When the amino and carboxyl groups on the surface of CDs were removed, their fluorescence was significantly weakened. The prepared CDs had solvent effect, and the emission peak of CDs shifted according to the change of the polarity of the solvent. Based on this, a method was developed for detecting water content in ethanol using CDs as a ratio probe. The change in the ratio of the intensity of the two emission peaks corresponded to the change of water content in ethanol. The detection linearity was good. In addition, the resulting CDs had good biocompatibility and could be enormously transported into cancer cells by the amino acid transporter on the surface of cancer cells, while normal cells only had a small amount of CDs through endocytosis, which laid the base for the distinguishing cancer cells from normal cells. The unique fluorescence properties of the prepared CDs achieved their applications in both water detection and cell differentiation.

In this study, solvent-dependent emitting carbon dots (CDs) were synthesized by simple one-step hydrothermal treatment of o-phenylenediamine (oPD). The as-prepared carbon dots (o-CDs) exhibited multi-color emission and strict excitation-independent luminescence characteristics in different solvents. Moreover, multi-color emissive o-CDs/polymer films were achieved through integrating the o-CDs with different polymer matrices. Interestingly, our experimental results demonstrated that distinctive o-CDs can also be used as fluorescent probes directly for visual and quantitative detection of water in different organic solvents. These investigations broaden the application of CDs and provide an easy method to quantitatively detect the presence of water in organic solvents.

With the increasing demand for eco-friendly materials, the green synthesis of carbon dots (CDs) from natural sources has gained significant attention for applications in sensing and imaging. This study introduces a novel solvothermal method to synthesize high-yield red fluorescent CDs (R-CDs) from Amaranth, a sustainable and low-cost vegetable. The resulting R-CDs exhibit a remarkable quantum yield of 42.0 %, surpassing the performance of CDs derived from other natural sources. Characterization revealed a graphene core with surface functional groups such as –OH, –COOH, and –NH 2 . The R-CDs display excitation wavelength-independent emission at 601 nm and excellent stability under various environmental conditions. They were applied as a probe for detecting trace water in organic solvents, demonstrating high sensitivity, a broad linear detection range, and a low detection limit of approximately 5 ppm, attributed to the low solubility of CDs in water. This work underscores the potential of R-CDs as stable and efficient optical materials for environmental sensing, particularly in detecting water content in organic solvents, with broader implications for quality control in chemical and fuel industries.

Rapid and sensitive detection of phosphate is of great significance for ensuring water safety and preventing eutrophication. In this study, we prepared Au@PATP@Ag NRs core-shell structures using 4-aminothiophenol (PATP) as an internal standard signal molecule to enhance the stability of the SERS signal. Based on the phosphate-induced decomposition of ZIF-8 and the protective effect of ZIF-8 on the internal Au@PATP@Ag NRs, a phosphate SERS sensor (Au@PATP@Ag@ZIF-8) with high sensitivity, selectivity and stability was designed. This method exhibited a good linear range of 0.1–125 μM and a detection limit of 30 nM. Furthermore, the developed sensor (Au@PATP@Ag@ZIF-8) was effectively applied to assess PO 4 3− in tap water samples, achieving recoveries between 97.44% and 104.54%. With its simple, fast and sensitive features, this method of phosphate detection in water provides a direction for the research and practical application of phosphate detection.

Heavy metal pollution in the environment poses a serious threat to the ecosystem and human health, which has attracted widespread attention. In this study, an octahedral structure composite composed of UiO-66-NH 2 MOFs and semiconductor GaOOH materials has been prepared and used as electrode materials successfully. These composites can be used for the real-time and online determination of Cd 2+ , Cu 2+ , Hg 2+ , and Pb 2+ in real water samples simultaneously or alone via an electrochemical method. Zr-MOF has a large and unique surface area that is beneficial to the adsorption and preconcentration of heavy metal ions . The experiment parameters such as pH, deposition potential, and deposition time were optimized. Under the optimized conditions, the electrochemical performances and practical applications of Zr-MOF composites modified electrode have been investigated, which shows excellent wider linear range and lower detection limit (LOD). The results demonstrated excellent selectivity, reproducibility, stability and applicability for the detection of four metal ions. These superior features stem from the synergistic reaction mechanism of UiO-66-NH 2 and GaOOH. In addition, it has been established a new detection strategy for heavy metal ions through the form of metal-organic framework (MOF) composite in this work. It may provide a novel platform for the quantitative determination of heavy metal ions in various environmental samples.

Dichloroacetonitrile (DCAN) is a common biotoxic disinfection by-product (DBP) of chlorine. The current methods used for detecting DCAN are tedious and heavily instrument-dependent, and are not suitable for on-site detection. In the present study, we developed a colorimetric assay for rapid detection of DCAN. DCAN in water acted as a complexing agent that formed a complex with cuprous species. The cuprous species was then extracted by chloroform and visualized using dithizone. The visual detection limit for DCAN was 20 ng mL−1, while fluorescence quantification could detect DCAN at a concentration as low as 8.75 ng mL−1. Moreover, haloacetonitriles (HANs) derived from chlorine disinfection and structurally similar to DCAN, including TCAN, BCAN, and DBAN, could also be detected using this method. Other DBPs at concentrations as high as 200 ng mL−1 did not affect the detection process. The low cost and instrument-independence characteristic of the present method enables its routine determination of the concentration of DCAN in water.

In this paper, a simple and highly sensitive sensing interface of graphene film for hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) determination has been prepared by controllable electrochemical deposition on the gold electrode surface. The graphene film was obtained by direct electroreduction of graphene
oxide (GO) in suspension solution. The investigations on deposition parameters of this controllable preparation, such as potential and deposition time, were carried out by the potentiostatic method to study the effects of them on the graphene film. The fabrication process and electrochemical
properties of graphene film were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and electrochemical techniques, respectively. The conditional parameters, including detection potential, the concentration of supporting electrolyte and pH, were optimized
for Cr(VI) analysis. Without preconcentration, chronoamperometry method was used for Cr(VI) fast detection. Under the optimized conditions, the graphene film modified electrode provided a fast detection process, a wide linear range from 5 μg/L to 2000 μg/L, and a low detection
limit of 0.5 μg/L (S/N ≥ 3). Also, the developed graphene film showed a good stability and anti-interference for Cr(VI) determination. The reported work holds promise for practical application due to its simple, fast, environment-friendly and economical natures.

A quantitative water detection method is urgently needed in storage facilities, space exploration, and the chemical industry. Although numerous physical techniques have been widely utilized to determine the water content, they still suffer from many disadvantages such as highly expensive special instruments, complicated analysis processes, etc. Hence, a convenient, rapid, and sensitive water analysis method is highly desirable. Herein, we developed a visual fluorescence sensing technology for water detection based on reversible PL off-on switching of organic–inorganic hybrid zero-dimensional (0D) manganese halides. In this work, a family of hybrid manganese halides were synthesized through a facile solution method, namely, [NH4(18-Crown-6)]2MnBr4, [Ca(18-Crown-6)·3H2O](18-Crown-6)MnBr4, [NH4(dibenzo-18-Crown-6)]2MnBr4, and [Ca(dibenzo-18-Crown-6)·2H2O]MnBr4. Excited by UV light, these highly crystalline manganese halides exhibit strong green light emissions from the d–d electron transition of Mn2+ with near-unity photoluminescence quantum yield and submillisecond lifetime. Benefiting from the dynamic and weak ionic bonding interactions, these 0D manganese halides display reversible water-response on/off luminescence switching but fail in any other aprotic solvents. Therefore, these 0D hybrid manganese halides can be explored as ultrafast visual fluorescence probes to detect the trace amount of water in organic solvents with multiple superiorities of rapid response time (< 2 s), ultralow detection limit (9.71 ppm), excellent repeatability, etc. The reversible water-response luminescent on/off switching also provides a binary optical gate with advanced applications in anticounterfeiting and information security, etc.
