Controlled growth of Cu <sub/>2a??x</sub> S sheet-like nanoshells and Cu <sub/>2a??x</sub> Sa??CdS pa??n junctions on Au nanorods with coupled plasmon resonances and enhanced photocatalytic activities
摘要： In this study, we propose an approach to grow Cu2?xS sheet-like nanoshells on Au nanorods with the aid of Ag2S auxiliary templates. The Ag2S semi-shells are first grown on the side-surface of the Au nanorods and then, the Cu2?xS sheet-like nanoshells are selectively grown on the opposite side, which is beneficial for improving the controllability of the growth sites of the Cu2?xS sheet-like nanoshells. The Cu2?xS–CdS p–n junctions grown on Au nanorods are produced by replacing Ag+ with Cd2+ in the as-prepared Au/(Cu2?xS–Ag2S), so that Au/(Cu2?xS–CdS) heterorods with non-central symmetric shells of Cu2?xS–CdS p–n junctions are formed. By carefully adjusting the effective thickness of the Cu2?xS–CdS junctions, the optimized photocatalytic activity of the Au/(Cu2?xS–CdS) heterorods is obtained, and it is about 1.62 and 1.22-fold that of Au/Cu2?xS and Au/CdS, respectively. The improved photocatalytic performance of the Au/(Cu2?xS–CdS) heterorods is attributed to the effective charge carriers at the interfaces of CdS–Au, Cu2?xS–Au and the Cu2?xS–CdS p–n junction. Our findings provide a strategy for the optimal design of plasmon–exciton heterostructures with improved photocatalytic activity.

Ratiometric fluorescent paper-based sensor based on CdTe quantum dots and graphite carbon nitride hybrid for visual and rapid determination of Cu <sup>2+</sup> in drinks
摘要： A simple and effective ratiometric fluorescent sensor of CdTe QDs/GCNNs for on-site and rapid analysis of Cu2+ has been established by mixing physically CdTe QDs and graphite carbon nitride (GCNNs). Two emissions peaks of CdTe QDs at 572 nm and GCNNs at 436 nm are both excitated at 340 nm. Under a UV lamp, fluorescent of traffic yellow CdTe QDs is linearly quenched by Cu2+ (as the detection signal), while blue GCNNs remains unchanged (as the reference), resulting in a distinguishable color change gradually from pink yellow to blue. The limit of detection (LOD) of this new sensor for Cu2+ is as low as 0.47 ng mL-1 with 1.4 % RSD. The established method has been successfully applied to detection of Cu2+ in various drinks with satisfactory results. Moreover, a paper-based sensor, which has been prepared by soaking cellulose acetate membrane in CdTe QDs/GCNNs sensor solution, has a wide semi-quantitative detection range for Cu2+ (0.01~5.0 μg mL-1). It has realized successfully on-site and rapid determination of Cu2+ in red wine without any pretreatment procedure and is of great promotion and application value in determination of Cu2+ in liquid samples.

Nucleic acid hybridization on a plasmonic nanointerface of optical microfiber enables ultrahigh-sensitive detection and potential photothermal therapy
摘要： Quantifying the microRNA (miRNA) level and manipulating them in complex samples, such as serum, is of intense interest because miRNAs are important diagnostic markers. Here, we demonstrate an optical microfiber integrating of untrasensitive detection function and local photothermal therapy potential. A nanointerface consisting of GO supported Cu2-xS nanoplates presented the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) tuned to be consistent with the operation wavelength of the microfiber transducer. It enhanced the surface energy density of evanescent field, on which the miRNA sensing and therapy occurred. With evanescent field enhancement by the plasmonic nanointerface, the sensor exhibits an ultrahigh sensitivity for detecting microRNA at concentrations ranging from 0.1 aM to 10 pM. It is also capable of differentiating one-base mismatches of miRNA at ultralow concentrations (as low as 10 aM) in serum. The photothermal effect of nanointerface simultaneously endows the sensor with the potential for localized photothermal therapy. This work presents a possible approach for the in-situ integration of diagnosis and treatment in early stage.

0D/2D plasmonic Cu2-xS/g-C3N4 nanosheets harnessing UV-vis-NIR broad spectrum for photocatalytic degradation of antibiotic pollutant
摘要： Localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs) are usually achieved by some small grains of noble metal (Au, Ag et al.) to enhances the light absorption and charge carrier’s concentration of photocatalysts, but the wide application of noble metals is limited by their high cost. Here, we report the preparation of 0D/2D plasmonic Cu2-xS/g-C3N4 nanosheets (CSCNNs) and the utilization of LSPRs generated from Cu2-xS nanodots instead of noble metals to improve the photocatalytic activity for degradation of typical antibiotic levofloxacin (LVX). One-step hydrothermal method was employed to grow the highly effective in increasing the light absorption in near infrared (NIR) region and the theoretical analysis of band structure reveals the efficient separation and transmission mechanism of verify the strong light absorption capacity and longer carriers’ lifetime for CSCNNs. The dispersed Cu2-xS nanodots on the g-C3N4 nanosheets. Various characterization techniques region. Consequently, efficient photocatalytic degradation of LVX under full solar photogenerated electrons and holes. More importantly, LSPRs has been proved to be finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulations demonstrated that Cu2-xS LSPR-induced electromagnetic field in g-C3N4 nanosheets was far stronger than that of Ag and Au in NIR efficient LSPR photocatalysis system for treatment of antibiotic wastewater or other spectrum (UV-vis-NIR) can be achieved for CSCNNs. This work will lead to a cheap and photocatalytic applications.

Ultrafast, sensitive and visual sensing of copper ions by a dual-fluorescent film based on quantum dots
摘要： The use of fluorescent sensors is one of the most promising approaches for meeting the growing demand for a sensitive, convenient and cost-effective detection method of metal ions. However, visual sensing based on fluorescent materials remains a challenge due to the hard-to-see changes in fluorescence intensity, long response time and poor stability. Here, a simple and effective film sensor was developed for the visual detection of Cu2+ using quantum dots (QDs) modified by polyethylenimine (PEI) and poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) by electrospinning and dip-coating methods. QDsr-PEI on the surface of nanofibers could be used as a responsive red fluorescence signal, while the QDsg dispersed in the nanofibers were used as a green background signal. Due to the high Cu2+ binding capacity of PEI and the contrast-color sensitivity of the two kinds of QDs, it realized an obvious fluorescence change from red to green toward Cu2+ in the liquid phase with a short response time of 30 s and a low detection limit of 2 mM by observation. Furthermore, the film exhibited excellent fluorescence stability to a high temperature and UV light, which is beneficial for satisfying much more possible applications. These results demonstrate that the dual fluorescent film sensor has a great potential for the real-time and visual detection of Cu2+.

Water-soluble ZnO quantum dots modified by (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane: The promising fluorescent probe for the selective detection of Cu2+ ion in drinking water
摘要： Copper, as an essential element in human body, can have adverse impact on environment and healthy individuals if it is excessive. So it is necessary to establish a rapid and effective method for detecting Cu2+. In this work, we describe a method for determination of Cu2+ based on water-soluble ZnO quantum dots (QDs) modified with (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTEs). The ZnO QDs functionalized with APTEs (NH2-ZnO QDs) synthesized by a simple sol-gel method and displayed strong yellow-green fluorescence with a peak at 535 nm under 350 nm excitation. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, luminescence, and UV-visible absorption spectroscopy were used to characterize the NH2-ZnO QDs. In addition, the emission from NH2-ZnO QDs was selectively quenched upon addition of Cu2+. Therefore, this finding was used to design a fluorescent probe based on NH2-ZnO QDs to detect Cu2+ in water solution, and the linear relationships were 2-20 nM and 1-100 μM respectively, with detection limit for Cu2+ at 1.72 nM (on the basis of 3σ/slope criterion). This fluorescent probe had also been applied in real water sample to testify its availability in drinking water. Furthermore, the quenching mechanism was studied by measurements of UV-visible absorption spectra and fluorescent lifetime of ZnO QDs, which may be attributed to the aggregation induced by Cu2+ and the dynamic quenching existing energy transfer between QDs and Cu2+.

Tumor-targeting multi-shelled hollow nanospheres as drug loading platforms for imaging-guided combinational cancer therapy
摘要： In this work, we developed multi-shelled hollow nanospheres [RGD@am-ZnO@CuO@Au@DOX HNSs] as multifunctional therapeutic agents to achieve effective and targeted Zn2+/Cu2+ therapy, induced drug delivery under low pH/red-light conditions, and enhanced phototherapy under single red-light. The photothermal and photodynamic performance of am-ZnO@CuO@Au HNSs was enhanced relative to that of am-ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) or am-ZnO@CuO HNSs by utilizing the resonance energy transfer process and broad red-light absorption. The pH-sensitive am-ZnO@CuO@Au HNSs were dissolved to Zn2+/Cu2+ in the acidic endosomes/lysosomes of cancer cells, resulting in a cancer cell killing effect. The release performance of doxorubicin (DOX) from RGD@am-ZnO@CuO@Au@DOX HNSs was evaluated under low pH and red-light-irradiated conditions, and targeting of HNSs was confirmed by dual-modal imaging (magnetic resonance/fluorescence) of the tumor area. Moreover, in vivo synergistic therapy using RGD@am-ZnO@CuO@Au@DOX HNSs was further evaluated in mice bearing human pulmonary adenocarcinoma (A549) cells, achieving a remarkable synergistic antitumor effect superior to that obtained by monotherapy. This study validated that RGD@am-ZnO@CuO@Au@DOX HNSs can be a promising candidate for efficient postoperative cancer therapy.

Ultrafast Plasmon Dynamics and Hole–Phonon Coupling in NIR Active Nonstoichiometric Semiconductor Plasmonic Cu <sub/> 2– <i>x</i> </sub> S Nanocrystals
摘要： Nonstoichiometric Cu2?xS nanocrystals (NCs) have been synthesized by hot-injection method after changing the copper to sulfur ratio. Optical studies confirmed well-defined localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) absorbance band from near-infrared to mid-infrared arising due to p-type hole vacancy in the doped semiconductor. Carrier concentrations of the Cu2?xS NCs are calculated to be on the order of ～1021 cm?3 after following the Drude model, which is one order of magnitude lower as compared to the metallic (Au/Ag) system. To understand ultrafast plasmon dynamics of Cu2?xS NCs, femtosecond broadband (visible?near IR) pump?probe spectroscopy has been employed. Ultrafast plasmon dynamics of the Cu2?xS NCs have been monitored after changing composition (copper to sulfur ratio), pump wavelength, and laser intensity. At moderate pump power hole?phonon relaxation time constant has been observed to be in the range of 240?440 fs for Cu2?xS NCs depending upon pump wavelengths (400, 800 nm). From the ultrafast transient data, hole?phonon coupling constant (G) has been determined in the range (1.6?2.7) × 1010 J K?1 s?1 cm?3 for Cu2?xS NCs at different excitation wavelengths, which is also one order lower as compared to the metallic system. We have proposed a new mechanistic scheme for hot carrier relaxation dynamics, in accordance with the two-temperature model (TTL) as reported in literature for plasmon dynamics.

Impurities in large scale produced Nd-doped phosphate laser glasses. I. Cu ions
摘要： Impurity ions such as transition metals and rare earth metals in Nd-doped phosphate laser glasses will degrade Nd-laser performance, among which Cu is the most harmful. Divalent Cu2+ not only results in an optical loss at Nd-laser wavelength, but also reduces the energy storage for laser amplification. A large-scale production of Nd-doped phosphate laser glasses is required to meet quality demand and to realize economy of scale. To balance between the controlled impurity level in the glasses and the cost of raw materials for thousands of disks of meter-scale Nd-doped phosphate laser glasses, it is important to determine an upper limit for Nd-laser degradation due to divalent Cu2+ ions. The absorption edge of Cu singly-doped phosphate glass prepared in an oxidizing atmosphere shows the evidence of monovalent Cu+. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy is utilized to further verify the existence of monovalent Cu+ ions in Cu, Nd codoped phosphate glass. The results show that both Cu+ and Cu2+ ions most probably coexist in Nd-doped phosphate laser glasses produced in the oxidizing atmosphere to eliminate Pt inclusions in the glasses. Accordingly, this paper discusses the extinction coefficient and the fluorescence quench factor caused by divalent Cu2+ ions, as well as their influence.

Sensitive Detection of Prostate Specific Antigen Based on Copper Ions Doped Ag-Au Nanospheres Labeled Immunosensor
摘要： A sandwich-type electrochemical immunosensor was designed for quantitative detection of prostate speci?c antigen (PSA). Gold-platinum bimetallic functionalized tin oxide graphene (GS-SnO2-Au@Pt) has a large speci?c surface area, good conductivity and biocompatibility, which was used as the sensing interface to capture PSA coating antibody (Ab1). The copper ions doped Ag-Au nanospheres (Cu2+@Ag-Au) was prepared and used as a label of PSA labeling antibody (Ab2), which generated high intensive electrochemical redox signal based on the reduction reaction of Cu2+. The L-cysteine was applied as a bridge to connect Au nanoparticles (NPs) and Ag NPs, and to keep the nanosized gap between Au nuclear and Ag shell. This structure not only makes full advantage of space effect to load more Ag NPs but also increases the speci?c surface area for loaded more Cu2+. The proposed immunosensor with a wide range (10 pg mL?1 to 100 ng mL?1) and a low detection limit (3.84 pg mL?1) shows excellent performance in the detection of PSA. The results indicate that proposed immunosensor provides a promising application for the quantitative detection of biomolecules in serum samples.
