Developing excellent strategies to optimize the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) performance of C3N4materials remains a challenge due to the electrode passivation, causing weak and unstable light emission. A strategy of controlling the calcination atmosphere was proposed to improve the ECL performance of C3N4nanotubes. Interestingly, we found that calcination atmosphere played a key role in specific surface area, pore-size and crystallinity of C3N4nanotubes. The C3N4nanotubes prepared in the Air atmosphere (C3N4NT-Air) possess a larger specific surface area, smaller pore-size and better crystallinity, which is crucial to improve ECL properties. Therefore, more C3N4•−excitons could be produced on C3N4NT-Air, reacting with the SO4•−during the electrochemical reaction, which can greatly increase the ECL signal. Furthermore, when C3N4nanotube/K2S2O8system is proposed as a sensing platform, it offers a high sensitivity, and good selectivity for the detection of Cu2+, with a wide linear range of 0.25 nM~1000 nM and a low detection limit of 0.08 nM.Keywords:electrochemiluminescence;C3N4nanotube;Cu2+detection

In present report, a new BDA for Cu 2+ has been disclosed for the first time. The presence of Cu 2+ caused an obvious fluorescence enhancement at 407 nm upon excitation at 360 nm, which could be distinguished by the naked eye under a UV lamp. It was found to have acceptable detection limits (0.12 μM), high selectivity and reversibility/reusability. The photoluminescence measurement indicates that BDA with Cu 2+ presence, showed very strong blue emission bands with CIE chromaticity coordinates (0.1652, 0.0723). Besides, the designed probe has shown potential applications in the area of sample monitoring, photo-printing.

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.

Water-soluble AgInZnS quantum dots (AIZS QDs) were synthesized with glutathione (GSH) as a stabilizer by a facile one-step method based on a hydrothermal reaction between the nitrate salts of the corresponding metals and sodium sulfide as a sulfide precursor at 110 °C. The optimal reaction conditions (temperature, time, pH, and the molar ratios of the precursors) were studied. According to the data from TEM, XPS, and XRD, AIZS QDs were characterized with excellent optical properties. The results showed that the aqueous-dispersible AIZS QDs were quasi-spherical and their average diameter was 3.51 nm. Furthermore, the cytotoxicity of AIZS QDs was investigated by microcalorimetry and microscopy techniques (confocal microscopy and TEM). The data revealed that AIZS QDs exhibited low toxicity, biocompatibility, and good water stability, due to which they could be used as a fluorescent probe for bioimaging and labeling. In addition, AIZS QDs could be used as a sensor to detect Cu2+ because the fluorescence of AIZS QDs was quenched by Cu2+.

Yellow-visual fluorescent carbon quantum dots (CQDs) were prepared from petroleum coke by ultrasonic-assisted chemical oxidation and were used as label-free probes for Cu 2+ detection in water. The detection of Cu 2+ by CQD probes is related to a quenching of fluorescence by a photoinduced electron transfer mechanism. The quenched fluorescence of the CQDs by Cu 2+ can be recovered by adding ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid. The yellow-visual fluorescent CQD probes have a linear detection range from 0.25 to 10 μM, a detection limit of 0.0295 μM, a response time of 3 s, and a superior sensitivity and selectivity for Cu 2+ detection compared to other fluorescent probes. The CQDs are easy to prepare, economical, reusable, fast to respond and can be used in on-line detection.

Surface metal deposition is an important method for tuning the optical property of plasmonic nanoparticles. In this work, we tried to deposit Cu shell on the surface of gold nanorods (Au NRs) by dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH)-mediated reaction. Cu 2+ were reduced to Cu 0 through the gold-catalyzed oxidization of NADH. The deposition of Cu shell onto the Au NRs surface resulted in the obvious red-shift of longitudinal localized surface plasmon resonance peak. And the red-shift of longitudinal peak increased with the concentrations of NADH and Cu 2+ . The TEM images showed that a transparent layer structure with a different contrast around Au NRs was clearly displayed. And this transparent layer structure with the low contrast was generally considered to be pure Cu shell. However, the results from energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) indicated that the transparent layer was not just pure Cu composition, but contained NADH/NAD + and Cu 2+ components. This grown complex dielectric shell resulted in the reduced surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) activity of Au NRs. Based on the decreased SERS intensity, we demonstrated a SERS method for Cu 2+ detection using R6G as Raman reporter. The decreased SERS intensity had a linear correlation with the concentration of Cu 2+ in the range of 10 −6 –10 −2 M, with a detection limit of 3.89 × 10 −6 M. This study provides new insights about Cu deposition on Au NRs, which will further promote the spectral sensing applications with gold-catalyzed Cu 2+ reduction on plasmonic nanoparticles by NADH.

Currently, growing attention has been paid to the sensitive determination and removal of Cu2+ because excessive levels of Cu2+ could do harm to organisms. Herein, a novel diethanolamine-modified magnetic fluorescent Fe3O4@ZnS nanoparticle
(MFNP) for simultaneous detection and removal of Cu2+ was designed and synthesized through dithiocarbamate linkage strategy. The characterization of MFNP was confirmed by transmission electron microscope (TEM), infrared (IR) and emission spectra. The results showed
that MFNP could quantificationally detect Cu2+ with high sensitivity and selectivity under a broad pH range (pH 4.5–9). The removal of Cu2+ was achieved by the aggregation-induced sedimentation (AIS) strategy and by external magnetic field.

Photoelectrochemical (PEC) detection as a potential development strategy for Cu 2+ ion sensor has arisen extensive attention. Herein, CdS/Ti 3 C 2 heterostructure was synthesized by electrostatically driven assembly and hydrothermal method. On the basis of a CdS/Ti 3 C 2 heterostructure, a novel anodic PEC sensing platform was constructed for highly sensitive detection of trace amount of Cu 2+ . Carrier transport at the interface of CdS/Ti 3 C 2 heterostructure was tremendously improved, due to the generation of effective Schottky junctions. Under visible light irradiation, the CdS/Ti 3 C 2 heterostructure-modified PEC platform exhibits great anode photocurrent signal, and the formation of Cu x S reduces the PEC response with the presence of Cu 2+ as a representative analyte. Thus, the linear response of Cu 2+ ranges from 0.1 nM to 10 µM and the limits of detection (LOD, 0.05 nM) are obtained, which is lower than that of WHO’s Guidelines for Drinking-water Quality (30 μM). This idea of component reconstitution provides a new paradigm for the design of advanced PEC sensors. Graphical abstract

Two-dimensional (2D) materials are widely used in heavy metal ion detection due to their high specific surface area and abundant active sites. Herein, we prepared highly selective and sensitive electrochemical sensors based on 2D graphitic-phase carbon nitride for the detection of Cu2+ and Pb2+ ions and investigated the effects of both tensile and compressive strains on the corresponding detection sensitivity, together with their mechanism. The prepared carbon nitride nanosheet sensors showed detection sensitivities of 3.63 and 0.41 μA·μM·cm–2, detection ranges of 0.2–100 and 6–100 μM, and detection limits of 0.0033 and 0.23 μM for Cu2+ and Pb2+, respectively. The induced compressive strain of −0.25% in the 2D CNNS significantly improved the sensitivity by 40.5% and 31.7%, while the tensile strain of +0.25% reduced the sensitivity by 41.9% and 43.9% in detecting Cu2+ and Pb2+ as compared to those at zero strain, respectively. Through DFT calculations, the corresponding compressive strain of −0.25% reduced the band gap from 1.21 eV under zero strain to 0.94 eV. On the contrary, the tensile strain of +0.25% increased the band gap from 1.21 to 1.45 eV, resulting from the contribution of orbitals of C-p and N-p. The declined and raised band gaps, respectively, result in increased and decreased electron transport rates, thereby improving and degrading the sensitivities of the sensors. Our research provides guidance on the design of flexible wearable sensors integrated into the construction of sensitive and reliable heavy ion detection systems.

A simple strategy to fabricate a fluorescent SiO2@zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) core–shell nanosensor for Cu2+ detection was demonstrated in this work. The nanosensor was synthesized using carboxyl-functionalized SiO2 nanoparticles (SiO2 NPs) as a template to induce the growth of ZIF-8 on its surface. The porous SiO2@ZIF-8 exhibited extremely good adsorption properties and a large specific surface area to accumulate Cu2+, and the pyridyl nitrogen sites in imidazole played vital roles in the recognition of Cu2+. The fluorescent intensity decreased linearly with the increasing of Cu2+ concentration in the range of 10–500 nM and the detection limit was estimated to be 3.8 nM. The SiO2@ZIF-8 nanosensor could be further used to determine trace amounts of Cu2+ in real water samples, while some previous sensors had to be dispersed in organic solution for use, such as DMSO and MeCN. The core–shell nanostructures of SiO2@ZIF-8 made it possible for it to be dispersed directly in aqueous solution and prevented ZIF-8 from aggregation, which enhanced the sensing performance of the SiO2@ZIF-8 nanosensor.

The ultra-small Lu6O5F8: 1%Er3+/10%Yb3+ up-conversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) were prepared via a co-precipitation method and used for detection of metal ions . Compared with other metal ions (Na+, Mg2+, Al3+, Fe2+, Co2+, Cd2+, etc), the up-conversion luminescence (UCL) intensity was reduced by 90% in the presence of Cu2+. Moreover, Strong quenching (65%) of the emission was observed upon the addition of Cu2+ in the concentration range of 0–10 μM. Meanwhile, the Cu2+ luminescence quenching mechanism was studied in detail. Under the 980 nm (1550 nm) excitation, the red UCL intensity of (Lu0.79Y0.1)6O5F8: 1%Er3+/10%Yb3+ and (Lu0.85Gd0.04)6O5F8: 1%Er3+/10%Yb3+ UCNPs enhanced about 4.67 (19.3) times and 3.95 (8.89) times than that of Y3+, Gd3+-absent samples, respectively. The temperature-sensing effect of Lu6O5F8: 1%Er3+/10%Yb3+ was also studied in detail, including not only this thermally coupled level (Er3+ 2H11/2, 4S3/2), but also the non-thermally coupled levels (Er3+ 2H11/2, 4F7/2). The absolute (S a ) and relative sensitivity (S r ) of Lu6O5F8: 1%Er3+/10%Yb3+ based on non-thermally coupled levels is much higher than that based on thermally coupled levels in the 293–473 K range. The maximum S a and S r is 0.087 and 0.0185 K −1 at 293 K. These meaningful results indicate that Lu6O5F8: 1%Er3+/10%Yb3+ materials have broad prospects in UCL multifunctional applications.

In the present work, three-dimensional porous HxTiS2 nanosheet–polyaniline (PANI) nanocomposites were first synthesized by a two-step method. First, HxTiS2 ultrathin nanosheets were prepared by the lithium intercalation and exfoliation method, followed by the surface polymerization reactions of aniline. The influences of the amount of HxTiS2 nanosheets on the nanocomposite morphology and electrochemical performances of the nanocomposites modified glass carbon electrode (HxTiS2 nanosheet–PANI/GCE) were investigated. The results demonstrated that the incorporation of HxTiS2 nanosheets as a suitable substrate can regulate the growth of PANI, enhance the electrode stability and improve interfacial electron transfer rates. In addition, based on the nanocomposites, we developed a novel electrochemical sensor to directly detect trace Cu2+, and discovered that the coordination interaction between Cu2+ cations and the N atoms of the imine moieties in PANI endowed the electrochemical sensor with high selectivity. Because of the synergetic effects of HxTiS2 nanosheets and PANI, the as-prepared electrochemical sensor exhibited highly sensitive and selective assaying of Cu2+ with a detection limit of 0.7 nM (signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) equal to 3) and a linear range from 25 nM to 5 μM, under optimal conditions.
