A novel sensitive, competitive, and time-resolved luminescence sensor for the detection of ofloxacin (OFL) was developed in this study. The sensor used OFL-specific aptamer as a recognition molecule and rolling circle amplification (RCA) as a signal amplification tool. In this way, the time-resolved luminescence can not only avoid background noise from sample, but also provide robust luminescence for detection. Besides, the separation and enrichment of target veterinary drug can be conducted assisted by magnetic treatment. Under optimal conditions, the logarithmic correlation between the concentration of OFL and the luminescence intensity was found to be linear in the range of 5 × 10-5 × 10 mol L (R = 0.9988), with a detection limit (LOD) of 32.1 pmol L. Furthermore, this method was applied to the determination of OFL in chicken and pork samples, exhibiting good recovery (72.5-100%) and repeatability (RSD < 10.0%). These results confirm that this novel established method has good application potential for the detection of OFL in food samples.

Photoinduced metal-to-ligand (or ligand-to-metal) charge-transfer (CT) states in metal complexes have been extensively studied toward the development of luminescent materials. However, previous studies have mainly focused on CT transitions between d- and π-orbitals. Herein, we report the demonstration of CT emission from 4f- to π-orbitals using a trivalent europium (Eu(III)) complex, supported by both experimental and theoretical analyses.

Luminescence thermometry has emerged as a promising approach for remote, non-invasive temperature sensing at the nanoscale. One of the simplest approaches in that regard is single-ion luminescence Boltzmann thermometry that exploits thermal coupling between two radiatively emitting levels. The working horse example for this type of luminescence thermometry is undoubtedly the green-emitting upconversion phosphor β-NaYF:Er,Yb exploiting the thermal coupling between the two excited H and S levels of Er for this purpose.

Aiming at the construction of novel platforms with excellent performances in both circularly polarized photoluminescence (CP-PL) and electrochemiluminescence (CP-ECL), a new family of pyrenophanes with rigidly locked pyrene dimers and varied bridges has been designed and synthesized. Attributed to densely packed pyrene excimers, the resultant pyrenophanes revealed tunable bridge-dependent emission behaviors, as investigated by femtosecond time-resolved transient absorption spectroscopy. More importantly, all these planar chiral pyrenophanes display strong CP-PL with large dissymmetry factor (gPL) values up to 0.

Flavonoids, a group of natural pigments, have attracted notable attention for their intrinsic fluorescent bioactive properties and potential therapeutic implications. Recent studies have suggested that the photoexcitation of specific flavonoids can also lead to the formation of triplet states, thereby potentially enhancing their applications in photoactivated antioxidant mechanisms. However, the crucial mechanism details about triplet state formation are still poorly understood.

Aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) reduces luminescence and compromises brightness in solid-state displays, necessitating strategies to mitigate its effects for enhanced performance. This study presents cost-effective method to mitigate ACQ of pyrene by co-assembling polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons within low molecular weight gelator. Synthesized from readily available materials-cholesteryl chloroformate and pentaerythritol-in one-step reaction, gelator incorporates four cholesteryl units, reported to promote robust supramolecular gels in various solvents.
