Two new families of lanthanide antennas are described. 8-Methoxy-4,5-dihydrocyclopenta[de]quinolin-2(1H)-one phosphonates or carboxylates behave as selective antennas exhibiting Eu3+ luminescence in organic solvents, while quinolin-2(1H)-one analogues selectively sensitize the Tb3+ emission. These emissions are quenched by H2O addition. Based on this behaviour, the new lanthanide antennas can be used as highly sensitive water sensors.

A sensitized dual-response ratiometric fluorescent sensor integrated smartphone platform for accurate discrimination and detection of tetracycline (TC) homologues was fabricated based on N-CDs-Eu complex. In the sensing system, N-CDs act as a sensitizer of Eu and significantly enhance the fluorescence of TC-Eu complex approximate 40-fold owing to the synergistic effect of antenna effect (AE) and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). A paper sensor integrated with a smartphone platform is further fabricated for on-site measurement of TC.

Lanthanide (Ln)-titanium-based molecular nanoclusters (NCs) have attracted much attention due to their atomically precise total structure and promising optical behavior, while there is still minimal cognition of structure-dictated electron relaxation dynamics in such an NCs regime with unsatisfied photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY, in general below 20%). Herein, the photoexcited small polarons (i.e.

Ciprofloxacin (CIP) is a commonly used antibiotic, but its abuse may cause bacterial resistance, posing a high risk to the environment and human health. Herein, based on the molecular imprinting technology, this study proposed a ratiometric fluorescence sensor employing the "post-doping" strategy, which aims to be rapid, selective, and visually easy-to-use for CIP detection to address antibiotic residues and environmental risks. Specifically, by exploiting the "antenna effect" of lanthanide metal ions (Ln), terbium (III) (Tb) chosen as a fluorescence-assisted functional monomer as well as the red emitting CdTe quantum dots (QDs) as the internal reference signal were introduced into multi-emission Tb-CdTe@SiO@MIPs (TbMIPs).

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.
