Abstract
A highly sensitive and environment friendly multimodal nanosensor encompassing magnetic and fluorescent functionality is designed for the simultaneous detection and removal of mercury ion in water. A significant fluorescence quenching is observed with the increasing concentration of Hg2+ with surprisingly low limit of detection. The detected analyte is successfully removed with the help of a bar magnet leaving no residual secondary pollution. The details mechanism of sensing is also investigated. The simple and elegant nanochemistry reported here provides a facile route towards field based mercury sensor development in future.
