Abstract

A strategy for construction of a solid-state electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) sensor based on a self-assembled film of core/shell structural CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) is presented in this work for the first time. The surface coverage of CdSe/ZnS QDs is about 2.2 × 10 12 NPs/cm 2, which is on the level of a submonolayer. This self-assembled CdSe/ZnS QD film has shown a strong and efficient cathodic ECL with peroxydisulfate and hydroperoxide as coreactants in aqueous solution. The quenching effect with hydroperoxide as the coreactant reveals an energy-level-related mechanism for the QD ECL processes. The energy levels of QDs and coreactants determine ECL responses. This insight provides a universal guide to select proper coreactants for the QD ECL sensors. In addition, the self-assembled CdSe/ZnS QD ECL sensor has the potential to detect energy-level-related analytes, such as dopamine.
