In this paper, we report the synthesis of a multifunctional fluorescent probe Tb-CP, Tb(HL)(EtOH)(NO) (HPU-10) (HL = 2,6-bis-(5-pyridin-4-yl-1H-[1,2,4]triazol-3-yl)- pyridine), and demonstrate that this novel chemosensor has the property of ratiometric detection of Zn and Cd. The detection limit of HPU-10 sensing Zn and Cd is 0.319 and 0.965 μM, respectively. The sensing mechanism can be explained by (i) the decomposition of HPU-10 and (ii) the recombination of Zn or Cd with ligand forming 2HL-Zn or 2HL-Cd, respectively. Moreover, the fluorescent sensor HPU-10 can detect the nitroaromatic compound 2, 4-DNP via a fluorescence quenching mechanism. The detection limits obtained from linear regression curve plots of 2, 4-DNP is calculated to be 1.69 μM. In addition, the possible use of the probe coated paper for tracing the target analytes has also been presented.

Spectroscopic properties of Tb-doped and Tb-Ag codoped lithium tetraborate (LTB) glasses with LiBO (or LiO-2BO) composition are investigated and analysed using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), optical absorption, photoluminescence (PL) and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectra, PL decay kinetics and absolute quantum yield (QY) measurements. PL spectra of the investigated glasses show numerous narrow emission bands corresponding to the D → F (J = 6-0) and D → F (J = 5-3) transitions of Tb (4f) ions. The most intense PL band of Tb ions at 541 nm (D → F transition) is characterised by a lifetime slightly exceeding 2.

Herein we present a series of luminescent Tb(III)-probes ([Tb-Ltrp], [Tb-Ltyr], and [Tb-Lphe]) for sensing and discriminating purine nucleoside polyphosphates (NPP) based on a modified DTTA chelator appended to aromatic amino acids (Laa). The optically most effective luminescent [Tb-Ltrp] probe preferentially discriminates the guanine-NPPs over the adenine-NPPs PeT-based modulation of Tb(III) luminescence within the biological concentration range.

Development of accurate, convenient and portable methods for monitoring 4-aminophenol (4-AP) is extremely important because of its strong toxicity. Here, a ratiometric fluorescence sensor based on Ag-enhanced luminescence of Tb-DNA complexes has been presented for the detection of 4-AP. The luminescence of Tb-DNA complexes is enhanced about 30 times by Ag, which can trigger energy transfer from DNA to Tb more efficiently.

The excessive presence of the metal ions Cu and Fe in the environment poses a serious threat to ecosystems and human health, so timely and accurate detection of them has become essential and urgent. In this paper, a novel hydrogel-based fluorescent sensor, named ME-IPA@SA-TbZn, was fabricated facilely through an in-situ cross-linking modification method and was used for the detection of Cu and Fe in water bodies. The ME-IPA@SA-TbZn is essentially a hybrid hydrogel bead that exhibits vibrant fluorescence, employing Tb and Zn functionalized hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) as the fluorescence functional core and sodium alginate (SA) as the hydrogel matrix.
