Optimising electrogenerated chemiluminescence of quantum dots via co-reactant selection
We demonstrate that for quantum dot (QD) based electrochemiluminescence (ECL), the commonly used co-reactant does not perform as effectively as potassium persulfate. By exploiting this small change in co-reactant, ECL intensity can be enhanced dramatically in a cathodic-based ECL system. However, TPA remains the preferential co-reactant-based system for anodic ECL. This phenomenon can be ration...
متن کاملElectrogenerated chemiluminescence of CdSe quantum dots dispersed in aqueous solution.
Electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) of CdSe quantum dots (QDs) dispersed in aqueous solution was studied with bare electrode. The ECL emission was observed at -1.4 V vs. Ag/AgCl and the ECL spectrum peak is similar to that of the defect photoluminescence (PL) spectrum, indicating the surface defects played a critical role in the emission process. The experiment results suggested that disso...
متن کاملAnodic electrogenerated chemiluminescence of quantum dots: size and stabilizer matter.
The electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) is generally believed to be independent of particle sizes or the capping agents used. Herein, we demonstrate that CdTe QDs with different sizes and stabilizers evidently exhibit different ECL behavior in aqueous solution. The ECL of CdTe QDs stabilized by 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) displays two waves at potenti...
متن کاملElectrochemistry and electrogenerated chemiluminescence from silicon nanocrystal quantum dots.
Reversible electrochemical injection of discrete numbers of electrons into sterically stabilized silicon nanocrystals (NCs) (approximately 2 to 4 nanometers in diameter) was observed by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) in N,N'-dimethylformamide and acetonitrile. The electrochemical gap between the onset of electron injection and hole injection-related to the highest occupied and lowest unoc...
متن کاملElectrogenerated chemiluminescence determination of C-reactive protein with carboxyl CdSe/ZnS core/shell quantum dots.
Electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) of water-soluble core/shell CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) coated with carboxylated polyethylene glycol polymers ("Qdot 625") was investigated in aqueous solutions using 2-(dibutylamino)ethanol (DBAE) and tri-n-propylamine (TPrA) as ECL coreactants. In both cases, ECL emissions at glassy carbon (GC) electrode appeared at the same potential of approximately ...
