Upconversion Luminescence and Magnetic Turning of NaLuF4:Yb3+Tm3+Gd3+ Nanoparticles and Their Application for Detecting Acriflavine

الملخص EN

Fluorescent and magnetic bifunctional NaLuF4:Yb3+/Tm3+/Gd3+ nanocrystals were synthesized by the solvothermal method and subsequent surface modification.

By changing the doping concentration of Gd3+, the shape, size, luminescent properties, and magnetic properties of the nanoparticles can be modulated.

These NaLuF4:Yb3+/Tm3+/Gd3+ nanocrystals present efficient blue upconversion fluorescence and excellent paramagnetic property at room temperature.

Based on the luminescence resonance energy transfer (LRET), upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) were confirmed to be an efficient fluorescent nanoprobe for detecting acriflavine.

It is easy to derive the concentration of acriflavine from the Integral Intensity Ratio of Green (emission from acriflavine) to Blue (emission from UCNPs) fluorescent signals.

Based on this upconversion fluorescent nanoprobe, the detection limit of acriflavine can reach up to 0.32 μg/mL.
