Electrospun Nanofibrous Membranes for Highly Sensitive Optical Sensors

Wang, Xianyan, Drew, Christopher, Lee, Soo-Hyoung, Senecal, Kris J., Kumar, Jayant, Samuelson, Lynne A.·2002·Nano Letters

Abstract

The first use of electrospun nanofibrous membranes as highly responsive fluorescence quenching-based optical sensors for metal ions (Fe 3+ and Hg 2+ ) and 2,4-dinitrotoluene (DNT) is reported. A fluorescent polymer, poly(acrylic acid)−poly(pyrene methanol) (PAA−PM), was used as a sensing material. Optical chemical sensors were fabricated by electrospinning PAA−PM and thermally cross-linkable polyurethane latex mixture solutions. These sensors showed high sensitivities due to the high surface area-to-volume ratio of the nanofibrous membrane structures.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
