The synthesis of aqueous MPA-capped CdTe quantum dots (QDs) via a facile one-pot route was developed. The particle size, optical properties and crystal structure of the as-synthesis QDs were investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), UV-vis absorption and photoluminescence (PL) spectra, respectively. Meanwhile, the effect of reaction conditions, including reaction time, pH and the quantity of sodium citrate (SC) on the growth of CdTe QDs were discussed. Then, the obtained CdTe QDs were successfully used for the detection of trace Cu[Formula: see text] with high sensitivity and excellent selectivity. The fluorescence intensity of CdTe QDs with Cu[Formula: see text] concentration showed a linear relationship in the range from [Formula: see text] mol/L to [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]mol/L. The correlation coefficient (R) is 0.9980 and limit of detection (LOD) is [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]mol/L. Moreover, the concentration of Cu[Formula: see text] in tap water samples was determined based on this sensing system and the recovery test was satisfactory.

Antibunching is a quantum effect demonstrating clearly the quantum nature of the radiation field. Its detection through measurements of the second order correlation function is a direct proof of the presence of single molecule or single nano particle. In this paper we present the experimental setup of the Hanbury Brown - Twiss interferometer and the measurement results of the antibunching effect from single Rhodamine B dye molecules and single CdTe quantum dots in dilute solution. By fitting the second order correlation data, we derive a fluorescence lifetime of approximately 2 ns for Rhodamine B and 45 ns for CdTe quantum dots. Our results demonstrate an alternative way for determining the fluorescence lifetime using the antibunching effect.

To achieve the rapid detection of Listeria monocytogenes, this study used aptamers for the original identification and built a photoelectrochemical aptamer sensor using exonuclease-assisted amplification. Tungsten trioxide (WO3) was used as a photosensitive material, was modified with gold nanoparticles to immobilize complementary DNA, and amplified the signal by means of the sensitization effect of CdTe quantum dots and the shearing effect of Exonuclease I (Exo I) to achieve high-sensitivity detection. This strategy had a detection limit of 45 CFU/mL in the concentration range of 1.3 × 101–1.3 × 107 CFU/mL. The construction strategy provides a new way to detect Listeria monocytogenes.
