DNA纳米传感器荧光成像技术

把基于量子点的DNA纳米传感器模型应用到ICCD荧光显微成像系统中,利用量子点的量子产率高、荧光寿命长、激发谱宽而发射谱窄、发射波长可由材料尺寸调谐等特性,以量子点为供体,Cy5(一种小分子荧光染料)为受体,结合ICCD系统的全内反射荧光成像功能、实时成像功能和双通道成像功能,证实了DNA纳米传感器可以在溶液中检测到含30个碱基的单链目标DNA片段。实时拍摄了溶液中链霉亲和素包被的量子点对两头分别连着Cy5和生物素的单链DNA片段(Cy5-ssDNA-Biotin)的捕获过程。并在活的中国仓鼠卵巢细胞样品中加入链霉亲和素包被的量子点和Cy5-ssDNA-Biotin进行实时荧光成像,拍摄到链霉亲和素包被的量子点和Cy5-ssDNA-Biotin进入细胞中并发生FRET的过程,初步表明了DNA纳米传感器在活细胞内进行DNA(或RNA)片段检测的可行性。     

Growth behaviors and emission properties of Co-deposited MAPbI3 ultrathin films on MoS2

Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite thin films have attracted much attention in optoelectronic and information fields because of their intriguing properties. Due to quantum confinement effects, ultrathin films in nm scale usually show special properties. Here, we report on the growth of methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI₃) ultrathin films via co-deposition of PbI₂ and CH₃NH₃I (MAI) on chemical-vapor-deposition-grown monolayer MoS₂ as well as the corresponding photoluminescence (PL) properties at different growing stages. Atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy measurements reveal the MoS₂ tuned growth of MAPbI₃ in a Stranski-Krastanov mode. PL and Kelvin probe force microscopy results confirm that MAPbI₃/MoS₂ heterostructures have a type-II energy level alignment at the interface. Temperaturedependent PL measurements on layered MAPbI₃ (at the initial stage) and on MAPbI₃ crystals in averaged size of 500 nm (at the later stage) show rather different temperature dependence as well as the phase transitions from tetragonal to orthorhombic at 120 and 150 K, respectively. Our findings are useful in fabricating MAPbI₃/transition-metal dichalcogenide based innovative devices for wider optoelectronic applications.
