    Area of Science:

    • Materials Science
    • Nanotechnology
    • Chemical Sensing

    Background:

    • Quantum dots (QDs) offer excellent optical properties for fluorescence sensing.
    • Challenges in QD gas sensors include gas diffusion and low concentration detection.
    • Developing sensitive and stable NO2 sensors is crucial for environmental monitoring.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a nitrogen dioxide (NO2) fluorescence gas sensor using a QDs@Aerogels/SM composite nanofilm.
    • To enhance gas diffusion, QD distribution, and NO2 adsorption for improved sensitivity and stability.
    • To create a portable and highly selective NO2 sensor with long-term performance.

    Main Methods:

    • Fabrication of a composite nanofilm using CdTe QDs, reduced glutathione (GSH), silica microspheres (SMs), and silica aerogel.
    • Characterization of the composite film's porous structure and QD distribution.
    • Integration of the composite film into a portable fluorescence gas sensor for NO2 detection.

    Main Results:

    • The QDs@Aerogels/SM composite film exhibited enhanced fluorescence intensity and uniform QD distribution.
    • The sensor showed a good linear response to NO2 in the 0-10 ppm range with an ultra-low detection limit of 0.096 ppm.
    • The composite nanofilm demonstrated high selectivity and stability, with fluorescence remaining unchanged for 60 days.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed QDs@Aerogels/SM composite nanofilm is effective for sensitive and selective NO2 detection.
    • The sensor's enhanced stability and portability make it suitable for real-time environmental monitoring.
    • This work presents a promising approach for advanced fluorescence-based gas sensing applications.
