【 摘 要 】
Fluorescence analysis technology and ion imprinting technology are combined to prepare a copper ion fluorescence sensor. Carbon quantum dots (CQDs), with a quantum yield of 79%, were synthesized by a hydrothermal process using citric acid as the carbon source. The prepared CQDs, acting as the fluorophore, were grafted onto the surface of an SBA-15 mesoporous molecular sieve by an amidation reaction. Then, the fluorescent sensor CQDs@Cu-IIP was prepared using a surface imprinting technique with the modified SBA-15 as the substrate, copper ions as a template, tetraethoxysilane as the crosslinker, and 3-aminopropyl-3-ethoxysilane as the functional monomers. The sensor showed strong fluorescence from CQDs and high selectivity due to the presence of Cu(II)-IIP. After the detection conditions were optimized, the fluorescence intensity of the sensor had good linearity with Cu(II) concentration in a linear range of 0.25–2 mg/L and 3–10 mg/L. This CQDs@Cu-IIP was applied to the determination of traces Cu(II) in real water samples and good recoveries of 99.29–105.42% were obtained. The present study provides a general strategy for fabricating materials based on CQDs for selective fluorescence detection of heavy metals.
