Efficient Emission from Core/(Doped) Shell Nanoparticles: Applications for Chemical Sensing

Thakar, Rahul, Chen, Yingchuan, Snee, Preston T.·2007·Nano Letters

Abstract

We have studied manganese doping of zinc selenide core/zinc sulfide shell nanocrystals (NCs) where the impurity phosphor resides primarily in the shell. We have found that a simple two-step synthesis can be used to create these nontoxic materials that display efficient energy transfer from the core to the Mn doped shell. These core/shell NCs retain ample quantum efficiency ( approximately 25%) when solubilized in water, which opens the possibility of using these materials as bioimaging agents. As recent work has shown that nanocrystals can be functionalized with organic dyes to operate as ratiometric chemical sensing agents, we have conjugated the doped NCs with an organic dye to showcase efficient Förster resonant energy transfer from the shell-doped phosphor to the surface-bound dye. This result indicates that doped NCs can be used to develop nontoxic ratiometric sensing/biological imaging agents.

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.
