Optimization of Temperature Sensing with Polymer-Embedded Luminescent Ru(II) Complexes.

ABSTRACT: Temperature is a key parameter in many fields and luminescence-based temperature sensing is a solution for those applications in which traditional (mechanical, electrical, or IR-based) thermometers struggle. Amongst the indicator dyes for luminescence thermometry, Ru(II) polyazaheteroaromatic complexes are an appealing option to profit from the widespread commercial technologies for oxygen optosensing based on them. Six ruthenium dyes have been studied, engineering their structure for both photostability and highest temperature sensitivity of their luminescence. The most apt Ru(II) complex turned out to be bis(1,10-phenanthroline)(4-chloro-1,10-phenanthroline)ruthenium(II), due to the combination of two strong-field chelating ligands (phen) and a substituent with electron withdrawing effect on a conjugated position of the third ligand (4-Clphen). In order to produce functional sensors, the dye has been best embedded into poly(ethyl cyanoacrylate), due to its low permeability to O₂, high temperature sensitivity of the indicator dye incorporated into this polymer, ease of fabrication, and excellent optical quality. Thermosensitive elements have been fabricated thereof as optical fiber tips for macroscopic applications (water courses monitoring) and thin spots for microscopic uses (temperature measurements in cell culture-on-a-chip). With such dye/polymer combination, temperature sensing based on luminescence lifetime measurements allows 0.05 °C resolution with linear response in the range of interest (0⁻40 °C).

Comparison Between Binuclear and Mononuclear Ru(II) Complexes: Synthesis, Structure, Photophysics, and Oxygen Sensing Performance.

Project description:Owing to their attractive potential in optoelectronic application, luminescent Ru(II) complexes with diamine ligands are harvesting more and more research efforts. These literature efforts, however, are mostly mononuclear ones, with no detailed discussion on the performance comparison between mononuclear and multinuclear Ru(II) complexes. This work synthesized three diamine ligands having two or multiple chelating sites in each ligand, as well as their Ru(II) complexes. The single-crystal structure, electronic structure, and photophysical parameters of these Ru(II) complexes were analyzed and compared. It was found that multinuclear Ru(II) complexes had a pure MLCT (metal-to-ligand charge transfer)-based emissive center, showing longer emission lifetime and higher emission quantum yield, which were desired for oxygen sensing. Then, the oxygen sensing performance of these mononuclear and multinuclear Ru(II) complexes was systematically compared by doping them into polymer fibers via electrospinning method. Improved oxygen sensing performance was observed from binuclear Ru(II)-doped nanofibrous samples, compared with the sensing performance of mononuclear ones, including higher sensitivity, shorter response/recovery time, and better photostability. The causation was attributed to the fact that the emissive state of multinuclear Ru(II) complexes was MLCT-based ones and thus more sensitive to O2 quenching than monocular Ru(II) complexes whose emissive state was a mixture of MLCT and LLCT (ligand-to-ligand charge transfer). In addition, a multinuclear Ru(II) complex had multiple emissive/sensing components, so that its sensing collision probability with O2 was increased, showing better photostability and shorter response/recovery time. The novelty of this work was the linear oxygen sensing curve, which was rarely reported in the previous work.

Heterobimetallic Ru(II)/M (M = Ag+, Cu2+, Pb2+) Complexes as Photosensitizers for Room-Temperature Gas Sensing.

Project description:This work is devoted to the investigation of heterobimetallic Ru(II) complexes as photosensitizers for room-temperature photoactivated In2O3-based gas sensors. Nanocrystalline In2O3 was synthesized by the chemical precipitation method. The obtained In2O3 matrix has a single-phase bixbyite structure with an average grain size of 13-14 nm and a specific surface area of 72 ± 3 m2/g. The synthesis of new ditope ligands with different coordination centers, their ruthenium complexes, and the preparation of heterobimetallic complexes with various cations of heavy and transition metals (Ag+, Pb2+, or Cu2+) is reported. The heterobimetallic Ru(II) complexes were deposited onto the surface of the In2O3 matrix by impregnation. The obtained hybrid materials were characterized by X-ray fluorescent analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, and optical absorption spectroscopy. The elemental distribution on the hybrids was characterized by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) mapping. The gas sensor properties were investigated toward NO2, NO, and NH3 at room temperature under periodic blue LED irradiation. It was identified that the nature of the second binding cation in Ru(II) heterobimetallic complexes can influence the selectivity toward different gases. Thus, the maximum sensor signal for oxidizing gases (NO2, NO) was obtained for hybrids containing Ag+ or Pb2+ cations while the presence of Cu2+ cation results in the highest and reversible sensor response toward ammonia. This may be due to the specific adsorption of NH3 molecules on Cu2+ cations. On the other hand, Cu2+ ions are proposed to be active sites for the reduction of nitrogen oxides to N2. This fact leads to a significant decrease in the sensor response toward NO2 and NO gases.

Ratiometric temperature sensing with semiconducting polymer dots.

Project description:This communication describes ultrabright single-nanoparticle ratiometric temperature sensors based on semiconducting polymer dots (Pdots). We attached the temperature sensitive dye-Rhodamine B (RhB), whose emission intensity decreases with increasing temperature-within the matrix of Pdots. The as-prepared Pdot-RhB nanoparticle showed excellent temperature sensitivity and high brightness because it took advantage of the light harvesting and amplified energy transfer capability of Pdots. More importantly, the Pdot-RhB nanoparticle showed ratiometric temperature sensing under a single wavelength excitation and has a linear temperature sensing range that matches well with the physiologically relevant temperatures. We employed Pdot-RhB for measuring intracellular temperatures in a live-cell imaging mode. The exceptional brightness of Pdot-RhB allows this nanoscale temperature sensor to be used also as a fluorescent probe for cellular imaging.

Realtime optimization of multidimensional NMR spectroscopy on embedded sensing devices.

Project description:The increasingly ubiquitous use of embedded devices calls for autonomous optimizations of sensor performance with meager computing resources. Due to the heavy computing needs, such optimization is rarely performed, and almost never carried out on-the-fly, resulting in a vast underutilization of deployed assets. Aiming at improving the measurement efficiency, we show an OED (Optimal Experimental Design) routine where quantities of interest of probable samples are partitioned into distinctive classes, with the corresponding sensor signals learned by supervised learning models. The trained models, digesting the compressed live data, are subsequently executed at the constrained device for continuous classification and optimization of measurements. We demonstrate the closed-loop method with multidimensional NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) relaxometry, an analytical technique seeing a substantial growth of field applications in recent years, on a wide range of complex fluids. The realtime portion of the procedure demands minimal computing load, and is ideally suited for instruments that are widely used in remote sensing and IoT networks.

Gold nanoparticle-polymer/biopolymer complexes for protein sensing.

Project description:Nanoparticle-based sensor arrays have been used to distinguish a wide range of biomolecular targets through pattern recognition. Such biosensors require selective receptors that generate a unique response pattern for each analyte. The tunable surface properties of gold nanoparticles make these systems excellent candidates for the recognition process. Likewise, the metallic core makes these particles fluorescence superquenchers, facilitating transduction of the binding event. In this report we analyze the role of gold nanoparticles as receptors in differentiating a diversity of important human proteins, and the role of the polymer/biopolymer fluorescent probes for transducing the binding event. A structure-activity relationship analysis of both the probes and the nanoparticles is presented, providing direction for the engineering of future sensor systems.

Photorelease of Pyridyl Esters in Organometallic Ru(II) Arene Complexes.

Project description:New Ru(II) arene complexes of formula [(?6-p-cym)Ru(N-N)(X)]2+ (where p-cym = para-cymene, N-N = 2,2'-bipyrimidine (bpm) or 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy) and X = m/p-COOMe-Py, 1-4) were synthesised and characterized, including the molecular structure of complexes [(?6-p-cym)Ru(bpy)(m-COOMe-Py)]2+ (3) and [(?6-p-cym)Ru(bpy) (p-COOMe-Py)]2+ (4) by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complexes 1-4 are stable in the dark in aqueous solution over 48 h and photolysis studies indicate that they can photodissociate the monodentate m/p-COOMe-Py ligands selectively with yields lower than 1%. DFT and TD-DFT calculations (B3LYP/LanL2DZ/6-31G**) performed on singlet and triplet states pinpoint a low-energy triplet state as the reactive state responsible for the selective dissociation of the monodentate pyridyl ligands.

Synthesis of an Alternated Heterobimetallic Supramolecular Polymer Based on Ru(II) and Fe(II).

Project description:A heterobimetallic supramolecular polymer (polyRuFe) with alternately complexed Ru(II) and Fe(II) is prepared following a stepwise synthetic route through harnessing first the strongly binding metal ion Ru(II) and then the weakly binding metal ion Fe(II). A high yield of product is achieved in each step. The heterometal ions are incorporated into the polymer chain in identical coordination environments formed by two 2,2':6',2″-terpyridine moieties. Characterization is accomplished by NMR spectroscopy, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry. PolyRuFe shows a wide optical window (λ = 311-577 nm) and a broad distinct reversible redox nature of two types, originated from the coupling of the two heterometallic segments into the polymer chain. Such characteristics of polyRuFe suggest its potential for various electrochemical and electro-optical applications.

Advance Progress on Luminescent Sensing of Nitroaromatics by Crystalline Lanthanide-Organic Complexes.

Project description:Water environment pollution is becoming an increasingly serious issue due to industrial pollutants with the rapid development of modern industry. Among many pollutants, the toxic and explosive nitroaromatics are used extensively in the chemical industry, resulting in environmental pollution of soil and groundwater. Therefore, the detection of nitroaromatics is of great significance to environmental monitoring, citizen life and homeland security. Lanthanide-organic complexes with controllable structural features and excellent optical performance have been rationally designed and successfully prepared and used as lanthanide-based sensors for the detection of nitroaromatics. This review will focus on crystalline luminescent lanthanide-organic sensing materials with different dimensional structures, including the 0D discrete structure, 1D and 2D coordination polymers and the 3D framework. Large numbers of studies have shown that several nitroaromatics could be detected by crystalline lanthanide-organic-complex-based sensors, for instance, nitrobenzene (NB), nitrophenol (4-NP or 2-NP), trinitrophenol (TNP) and so on. The various fluorescence detection mechanisms were summarized and sorted out in the review, which might help researchers or readers to comprehensively understand the mechanism of the fluorescence detection of nitroaromatics and provide a theoretical basis for the rational design of new crystalline lanthanide-organic complex-based sensors.

Rational construction of luminescent Eu-doped Y-MOF for ratiometric temperature sensing.

Project description:Introducing lanthanide(iii) ions into a MOF structure is one of the most effective strategies to construct luminescent MOFs with multiple emission centers for fluorescent applications. In this work, a functionalized Eu3+-doped Y-MOF (Eu@SNNU-325) was constructed by using a cation exchange strategy. The photoluminescence result shows that Eu@SNNU-325 exhibits a unique emission spectrum, namely, the absence of the organic ligand peak and the very strong Y3+/Eu3+ characteristic peaks. Interestingly, the smart luminescent Eu@SNNU-325 as a ratiometric thermometer for temperature sensing has good self-calibrated ability and a high maximum relative sensitivity (Sm) value (1.2% K-1 at 260 K). This work presents the construction of a smart Eu3+-functionalized Y-MOF thermometer through a cation exchange strategy, providing a good idea for the future development and design of Y-MOF thermometers.

Strained, Photoejecting Ru(II) Complexes that are Cytotoxic Under Hypoxic Conditions.

Project description:A series of strained Ru(II) complexes were studied for potential anticancer activity in hypoxic tissues. The complexes were constructed with methylated ligands that were photolabile and an imidizo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline ligand that contained an appended aromatic group to potentially allow for contributions of ligand-centered excited states. A systematic variation of the size and energy of the aromatic group was performed using systems containing 1-4 fused rings, and the photochemical and photobiological behaviors of all complexes were assessed. The structure and nature of the aromatic group had a subtle impact on photochemistry, altering environmental sensitivity, and had a significant impact on cellular cytotoxicity and photobiology. Up to 5-fold differences in cytotoxicity were observed in the absence of light activation; this rose to 50-fold differences upon exposure to 453 nm light. Most significantly, one complex retained activity under conditions with 1% O2 , which is used to induce hypoxic changes. This system exhibited a photocytotoxicity index (PI) of 15, which is in marked contrast to most other Ru(II) complexes, including those designed for O2 -independent mechanisms of action.
