Plasmon-Emitter Hybrid Nanostructures of Gold Nanorod-Quantum Dots with Regulated Energy Transfer as a Universal Nano-Sensor for One-step Biomarker Detection
摘要： Recently, biosensing based on weak coupling in plasmon-emitter hybrid nanostructures exhibits the merits of simplicity and high sensitivity, and attracts increasing attention as an emerging nano-sensor. In this study, we propose an innovative plasmon-regulated fluorescence resonance energy transfer (plasmon-regulated FRET) sensing strategy based on a plasmon-emitter hybrid nanostructure of gold nanorod-quantum dots (Au NR-QDs) by partially modifying QDs onto the surfaces of Au NRs. The Au NR-QDs showed good sensitivity and reversibility against refractive index change. We successfully employed the Au NR-QDs to fabricate nano-sensors for detecting a cancer biomarker of alpha fetoprotein with a limit of detection of 0.30 ng/mL, which displays that the sensitivity of the Au NR-QDs nano-sensor was effectively improved compared with the Au NRs based plasmonic sensing. Additionally, to demonstrate the universality of the plasmon-regulated FRET sensing strategy, another plasmon-emitter hybrid nano-sensor of Au nano-prism-quantum dots (Au NP-QDs) were constructed and applied for detecting a myocardial infarction biomarker of cardiac troponin I. It was first reported that the change of absorption spectra of plasmonic structure in a plasmon-emitter hybrid nanostructure was employed for analytes detection. The plasmon-regulated FRET sensing strategy described herein has potential utility to develop general sensing platforms for chemical and biological analysis.

A new ratiometric fluorescence assay based on resonance energy transfer between biomass quantum dots and organic dye for the detection of sulfur dioxide derivatives
摘要： Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is considered as the fourth gas signal molecule after nitric oxide (NO), carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S). It plays important roles in several physiological processes. Therefore, the design and synthesis of nanoprobes for the detection of SO2 derivatives in cells is of great significance. Herein, we report a new ratiometric fluorescence nanoprobe based on resonance energy transfer (RET) between biomass quantum dots (BQDs) and organic dye (DMI) for the detection of SO2 derivatives. The proposed ratiometric fluorescence assay allows the determination of HSO3? in the range of 1.0 to 225 μM with a detection limit of 0.5 μM. Importantly, the proposed ratiometric fluorescence nanoprobe exhibits a high photostability and good selectivity for HSO3? over other chemical species including H2S and biological mercaptans. Quantitation of HSO3? in cell lysates by using the nanoprobe is demonstrated.

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer effect enhanced high performance of Si quantum Dots/CsPbBr3 inverse opal heterostructure perovskite solar cells
摘要： CsPbBr3 based perovskite solar cells draw boosted investigation benefitting from their simplified preparation property and outstanding stability against moist and heat while the photo-electrical conversion efficiency (PCE) is still worth promotion. In addition, relatively wide band gap limits the light utilization ability of pristine CsPbBr3 which leads to insufficient photo-induced charge carrier population thereby a low photocurrent density. Herein, we for the first time demonstrate a strategy to combine crystalized Si quantum dots (QDs) with CsPbBr3 inverse opal (IO) which significantly enhances the solar energy utilization efficiency by virtue of providing an additional fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) process from Si QDs to CsPbBr3 IO. Acting as donor, the emitted photoluminescence from Si QDs can be absorbed by CsPbBr3, which serves as acceptor, leading to an increased carrier population in the system. Meanwhile, the multi-dimensional heterojunction between Si QDs and CsPbBr3 IO effectively facilitates the system bulk charge transfer process. A greatly improved PCE up to 8.31% with an obviously enhanced photocurrent density up to 7.8 mA?cm?2 can be obtained with a competitive IPCE up to 81%. This strategy provides a new alternative method to develop high-performance perovskite solar cells and other photo-electronic devices.

Design and Synthesis of a Well-Controlled Mechanoluminescent Polymer System Based on Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer with Spiropyran as a Force-Activated Acceptor and Nitrobenzoxadiazole as a Fluorescent Donor
摘要： Colorimetric mechanophores, which change color through force-induced covalent bond breakage, have been incorporated into polymer chains to create mechanochromic materials. However, the color change of most mechanophores is a turn-on response. In this work, we designed and synthesized a novel mechanoluminescent polymer system, PBA-SP-P(MMA-co-NBD), based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) with spiropyran (SP) as a force-activated "on/off" mechanophore acceptor and nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD) as a fluorescent donor. It is a comb polymer having NBD-bearing poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) side chains grafted onto a poly(butyl acrylate) (PBA) backbone through SP groups. The processed polymer yields a morphology having NBD-containing PMMA nanodomains embedded into a PBA matrix with SP at the interface. The distance between NBD and SP functionalities is less than 10 nm with confinement of the nanophase separation, which effectively facilitates their fluorescence resonance energy transfer. Under uniaxial stretch, the materials change color at strains as low as about 18% and undergo a green-to-red fluorescence color switch. The two colors are ratiometric, exhibiting a linear correlation with strain after the onset of mechanoactivation. The color change is greatly enhanced right after failure. The fluorescence emission performance can be well controlled through regulating the PMMA/PBA and SP/NBD ratios in the synthesis. The synthesized polymer system exhibits a good potential as an indicator in monitoring microscale cut damages.

Nanococktail Based on AIEgens and Semiconducting Polymers: A Single Laser Excited Image-Guided Dual Photothermal Therapy
摘要： Semiconducting polymers (SPs)-based dual photothermal therapy (PTT) obtained better therapeutic effect than single PTT due to its higher photothermal conversion efficiency. However, most dual PTT need to use two lasers for heat generation, which brings about inconvenience and limitation to the experimental operations. Herein, we report the development of “nanococktail” nanomaterials (DTPR) with 808 nm-activated image-guided dual photothermal properties for optimized cancer therapy. Methods: In this work, we co-encapsulated AIEgens (TPA-BDTO, T) and SPs (PDPPP, P) by using maleimide terminated amphiphilic polymer (DSPE-PEG2000-Mal, D), then further conjugated the targeting ligands (RGD, R) through “click” reaction. Finally, such dual PTT nanococktail (termed as DTPR) was constructed. Results: Once DTPR upon irradiation with 808 nm laser, near-infrared fluorescence from T could be partially converted into thermal energy through fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between T and P, coupling with the original heat energy generated by the photothermal agent P itself, thus resulting in image-guided dual PTT. The photothermal conversion efficiency of DTPR reached 60.3% (dual PTT), much higher as compared to its inherent photothermal effect of only 31.5% (single PTT), which was further proved by the more severe photothermal ablation in vitro and in vivo upon 808 nm laser irradiation. Conclusion: Such smart “nanococktail” nanomaterials could be recognized as a promising photothermal nanotheranostics for image-guided cancer treatment.

A target analyte induced fluorescence band shift of piperazine modified carbon quantum dots: a specific visual detection method for oxytetracycline
摘要： Through the protection/deprotection of one amine group and the amidation reaction, piperazine was used to modify carbon quantum dots (CQDs) and successfully served as a medium to combine oxytetracyclines (OTC) in solution by hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions. Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) probably occurred between piperazine modified CQDs (P-CQDs) and combined OTC, which resulted in the red-shift of the fluorescence band. Besides superior specificity for examining, a good linear relationship between the maximum emission wavelength of P-CQDs and concentrations of OTC (0 to 10 lM) can be obtained, which provides a rapid and convenient visual fluorescence detection method of OTC.

Aqueous Carbon Quantum Dot-Embedded PC60-PC <sub/>61</sub> BM Nanospheres for Ecological Fluorescent Printing: Contrasting Fluorescence Resonance Energy-Transfer Signals between Watermelon-like and Random Morphologies
摘要： To go beyond the PC60 surfactant structure, the double-layer micelle morphology in water motivates exploration of altered protocols to produce new morphologies. Furthermore, the low photoluminescence quantum yield of aqueous fullerene-based particles encourages high fluorescence to create a light-emitting display. With this in mind, we established new hybrid n-type nanospheres with carbon quantum dot (CQD)-embedded PC60-PC61BM particles, processed using two different protocols. The homogenizer-assisted PC60-CQD-PC61BM resulted in a watermelon-shaped spherical particle, whereas a circular morphology with randomly embedded CQDs was observed in the microwave-treated hybrids. More surprisingly, the watermelon-shaped colloid induced efficient fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between the CQD and C60 molecules of PC61BM, and the FRET-mediated emission signature diminished gradually as the stripe patterns collapsed. This phenomenon allowed different fluorescent colors in the colloidal printing film. We thereby provided the new carrier dynamics of the particle photonic activities of the developed aqueous PC60-based colloids with the possibility of ecological utilization.

A multiplexed FRET aptasensor for simultaneous detection of mycotoxins with magnetically controlled graphene oxide/Fe3O4 as single energy acceptor?
摘要： Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and fumonisin B1 (FB1) are the most common mycotoxins and often coexist in agricultural products, which are known to be a toxic superposition and even carcinogenic effects on humans. We proposed a multiplexed fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) aptasensor for simultaneous detection of mycotoxins with magnetically controlled graphene oxide (GO)/Fe3O4 as single energy acceptor. CdTe quantum dots emitting green (GQDs) and red (RQDs) fluorescence are modified by aptamers specifically for AFB1 and FB1 and used as dual energy donors. Compared with conventional FRET system based on GO quencher, GO/Fe3O4, a single energy acceptor, can not only quench the fluorescence of aptamer-modified GQDs and RQDs with different emission peaks simultaneously, but also be removed by effective magnetic separation to eliminate the interference of background. In the absence of GO/Fe3O4 nanocomposites, the aptamer modified GQDs and RQDs give off strong fluorescence under ultraviolet radiation. The fluorescence of GQDs and RQDs is quenched when GO/Fe3O4 nanocomposites is added to the system owing to the π–π stacking interaction between GO/Fe3O4 nanocomposites and GQDs- and RQDs-labeled aptamer. However, in the presence of AFB1 and FB1, the binding of aptamers to their specific targets will fold their single stranded structures and hinder the contact between base group in aptamers and GO/Fe3O4, which cause the fluorescence recovery of GQDs and RQDs. With the help of one step of magnetic separation, the supernatants can be collected for fluorescence analysis. After optimization of detection conditions, the developed method had a wider linear range of 10 pg mL?1–100 ng mL?1 for AFB1 and 50 pg mL?1–300 ng mL?1 for FB1 and showed no cross-reactivity with other closely related mycotoxins, respectively. The limit of detection for AFB1 and FB1 are calculated to be 6.7 and 16.2 pg mL?1 based on S/N=3. The detection of mycotoxins has been successfully realized in peanut samples and a new application field of FRET system is expected for various targets.

A multicolor large Stokes shift fluorogen-activating RNA aptamer with cationic chromophores
摘要： Large Stokes shift (LSS) fluorescent proteins (FPs) exploit excited state proton transfer pathways to enable fluorescence emission from the phenolate intermediate of 4-hydroxybenzylidene imidazolone (HBI) chromophore. An RNA aptamer named Chili mimics LSS FPs by inducing highly Stokes-shifted emission from several new green and red HBI analogs that are non-fluorescent when free in solution. The ligands are bound by the RNA in their protonated phenol form and feature a cationic aromatic side chain for increased RNA affinity and reduced magnesium dependence. In combination with oxidative functionalization at the C2 position of the imidazolone, this strategy yielded DMHBO+, which binds to the Chili aptamer with a low-nanomolar KD. Because of its highly red-shifted fluorescence emission at 592 nm, the Chili–DMHBO+ complex is an ideal fluorescence donor for F?rster resonance energy transfer (FRET) to the rhodamine dye Atto 590 and will therefore find applications in FRET-based analytical RNA systems.
