Back Cover: A Luminescent Nanocrystal Marker for the Selective and Ultrasensitive Detection of Explosives (ChemNanoMat 8/2016)
Source abstract
Abstract
The Back Cover illustrates the potential use of l-cysteine-capped Ce(III)/Tb(III) co-doped Sr2GdF7 nanocrystals as an excellent luminescent probe for the rapid, selective, and sensitive detection of the explosive picric acid (PA) in water. The strong green emission upon UV excitation of the nanocrystals is quenched selectively in the presence of PA among other nitro explosives. More information can be found in the Communication by S. Sarkar, J. Huskens et al. on page 805 in Issue 8, 2016 (DOI:10.1002/cnma.201600184).
