Abstract:
Herein, we demonstrate the first use of a reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-organic dye nanoswitch for the label-free, sensitive and selective detection of Hg(2+) using bifunctional rGO as an effective nanoquencher and highly selective nanosorbent. Moreover, a reversible on-off INHIBIT rGO logic gate based on a cysteine-Hg(2+) system has also been designed.
