Abstract

The impressive photoluminescence properties of all inorganic cesium lead halide perovskite quantum dots (PeQDs) make them highly intriguing for fluorescence chemosensor applications. Herein, a ratiometric dual emitting perovskite-based sensor was designed by synthesizing fluorescent CsPbBr3 PeQDs in situ within a matrix of Eu-BDC (Eu(III) benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate). The results presented here establish the suggested sensor's quick and selective turn-on PL response to volatile primary aliphatic amine derivatives. In the presence of amines, the designed CsPbBr3/Eu-BDC sensor exhibits an enhancement of the PL signal of CsPbBr3 at 518 nm and the Eu-BDC signal at 615 nm served as a standard for constructing the ratiometric sensing system. Thereby, a visual color change from red to green was observed with the incremental addition of methylamine to the probe. A low detection limit of 0.083 ppm was determined for methylamine. In both the solution and vapor phases, this ratiometric sensor responds to a variety of primary aliphatic amines with very quick and strong fluorescence. Moreover, the sensor was effectively used for monitoring meat spoilage owing to the emission of biogenic amine vapor from meat products.
