基于Mn掺杂ZnS量子点的室温磷光传感应用的研究进展

与一般有机染料分子相比,半导体材料量子点具有优异的光学性能,在多个领域得到了广泛的应用.量子点具有窄而对称且可调的发射波长、宽激发强吸收、抗光漂白能力强以及水溶性好等诸多优势,引起了研究者广泛关注.为了增加量子点的斯托克斯位移从而很好地避免量子点的自猝灭现象,引入掺杂物是一种很有效的方式.掺杂量子点不仅保留了量子点原有的优点,而且还赋予量子点额外的优异性能.如Mn掺杂ZnS量子点生物相容性好,不含Cd和Hg等有害元素,而且Mn2+的加入使其具有优异的室温磷光特性.磷光检测能很好地避开生物背景荧光的干扰,使得Mn掺杂ZnS量子点能够广泛应用于磷光生物分析.本文综述了Mn掺杂ZnS量子点在室温磷光分析中的研究进展,着重介绍了几种具有启发意义的设计策略,包括其发光机理以及应用于离子、分子以及生物大分子等的检测.

Progress of Room Temperature Phosphorescent Sensing Application Based on Manganese-doped Zinc Sulfide Quantum Dots

In comparison with traditional organic dyes, semiconductor quantum dots ( QDs) feature a series of superior luminescence properties, including narrow and symmetric emission, broad excitation and strong absorption, excellent photobleaching-resistance, and good water solubility. The addition of dopants can endows QDs with extra new properties, e. g. , further increase the Stokes shift for avoiding self-quenching. Mn-doped ZnS QDs are a very representative example of doped QDs. No harmful elements such as Cd and Hg are involved in such type of bio-friendly QDs. Besides, the Mn2+dopant further adds QDs with excellent room temperature phosphorescence. Phosphorescent detection can effectively eliminate the interference of biological background fluorescence, thus Mn-doped ZnS QDs can be widely used in phosphorescent bioanalysis. In this paper, the recent progress of room temperature phosphorescence analysis with Mn-doped ZnS QDs was reviewed. The emphasis was placed on the several stimulative sensing design strategies, including the luminescence mechanism, ion probes, detection of small molecules and biomacromolecules.
