    Photoluminescent Carbon Dots for Sensitive and Selective Cu2+ Ion Detection
    (Institute of Physics, 2026-01-07) Sahin-Tiras, K.; Karabel Ocal, S.; Mutlugün, E.; Sahin Tiras, Kevser
    Green-emitting carbon dots (CDs) were synthesized via a solvent-free, vacuum-assisted method using citric acid and urea. The CDs exhibited strong photoluminescence and served as selective, sensitive probes for Cu2+ detection in water, with a detection limit of 26 nM. Among the tested metal ions, Cu2+ induced the most significant PL quenching. Time-resolved photoluminescence measurements of the CDs in the presence of Cu2+ ions revealed a minimal change in lifetime, despite a significant decrease in PL intensity, along with unchanged UV-vis absorption, indicating a mixed quenching mechanism. The sensor’s applicability was confirmed in raisin extract and tea infusion, showing notable PL suppression. With their simplicity, selectivity, and sensitivity, these CDs offer promising potential as nanosensors for detecting Cu2+ in environmental and real-world analytical settings. © 2026 The Author(s).

    Tuning the Shades of Red Emission in InP/ZnSe Nanocrystals With Narrow Full Width for Fabrication of Light-Emitting Diodes
    (Amer Chemical Soc, 2023-10-13) Soheyli, Ehsan; Bicer, Aysenur; Ozel, Sultan Suleyman; Tiras, Kevser Sahin; Mutlugun, Evren; Sahin Tiras, Kevser
    While Cd-based luminescent nanocrystals (NCs) are the most mature NCs for fabricating efficient red light-emitting diodes (LEDs), their toxicity related limitation is inevitable, making it necessary to find a promising alternative. From this point of view, multishell-coated, red-emissive InP-based NCs are excellent luminescent nanomaterials for use as an emissive layer in electroluminescent (EL) devices. However, due to the presence of oxidation states, they suffer from a wide emission spectrum, which limits their performance. This study uses tris-(dimethyl-amino)-phosphine (3DMA-P) as a low-cost aminophosphine precursor and a double HF treatment to suggest an upscaled, cost-effective, and one-pot hot-injection synthesis of purely red-emissive InP-based NCs. The InP core structures were coated with thick layers of ZnSe and ZnS shells to prevent charge delocalization and to create a narrow size distribution. The purified NCs showed an intense emission signal as narrow as 43 nm across the entire red wavelength range (626-670 nm) with an emission quantum efficiency of 74% at 632 nm. The purified samples also showed an emission quantum efficiency of 60% for far-red wavelengths of 670 nm with a narrow full width of 50 nm. The samples showed a relatively long average emission lifetime of 50-70 ns with a biexponential decay profile. To demonstrate the practical ability of the prepared NCs in optoelectronics, we fabricated a red-emissive InP-based LEDs. The best-performing device showed an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 1.16%, a luminance of 1039 cd m(-2), and a current efficiency of 0.88 cd A(-1).
