Abstract

All-inorganic perovskite CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) quantum dots (QDs) have emerged as a new class of semiconductor nanocrystals, but the stability of CsPbX3QDs in polar solvents is still a significant challenge.Since most targets in analytical chemistry, especially for biological detection, exist in an aqueous medium, this weakness seriously hampers practical analytical applications of CsPbX3 QDs. In this work, we introduce a closed bipolar electrode (BPE) to extend the application of perovskite QDs to aqueous systems. Based on the principle of conservation of charge in the electrode reactions at opposite ends of the BPE, the concentration of H2O2 in an aqueous medium can be detected by measuring the ECL intensity of CsPbBr3 QDs in an organic solution. Thus, for the first time, H2O2 in an aqueous system has been successfully analyzed using all-inorganic perovskite CsPbBr3 QDs with stable electrochemiluminescence performance combined with a closed bipolar electrode chip.
