A selective fluorescence turn-on sensing system for evaluation of Cu2+ polluted water based on ultra-fast formation of fluorescent copper nanoclusters

Abstract

We report on a rapid and selective fluorescence turn-on detection system for Cu2+ based on the formation of highly fluorescent copper nanoclusters (CuNCs). The facile detection of Cu2+ was achieved using a remarkable red fluorescence emission upon addition of Cu2+.
