摘要
A convenient label-free fluorescence（FL） nanoprobe for rapid detection of cadmium（Cd） was established using glutathione-capped CdS quantum dots（QDs） and 1,10-phenanthroline（phen）. The prepared CdS QDs exhibited a strong FL emission at 536 nm, which could be quenched by phen due to the photoinduced hole transfer（PHT） mechanism. The existence of Cd effectively recovered the FL intensity of CdS QDs, which was due to the easy detachment of phen from the surface of QDs to form [Cd（phen）2（H2O）2]2＋ in solution. Cd concentrations were linearly correlated with the FL intensity in the range of 0.0625-1.25 μmol/L under the optimized conditions and the detection limit was 0.01μmol/L. Finally, the Cd concentration was accurately quantified in real water sample using the proposed sensor.
