Optical fiber sensor for pyrophosphate detection using Cu2+-responsive polymer-modified PbS quantum dots
We report a compact optical fiber sensor for selective detection of pyrophosphate (PPi), based on a tapered interferometer coated with amphiphilic polymer-modified PbS quantum dots (P-QDs). The amphiphilic polymer enhances QD solubility and stability, while providing oxygen-rich groups for Cu2+ coordination. PPi competitively displaces Cu2+, leading to photoluminescence recovery and refractive index changes that yield a dual optical response. The sensor achieves a detection limit of 56.25 μM and excellent repeatability. Compared with conventional enzymatic or colorimetric assays, this fiber-integrated system offers operational simplicity, real-time monitoring capability, and robustness in complex aqueous environments. Beyond PPi, the P-QD/fiber platform provides a versatile framework for extending quantum-dot–based sensing to other biomedical and environmental analytes.
期刊介绍:
Innovations in optical fiber technology are revolutionizing world communications. Newly developed fiber amplifiers allow for direct transmission of high-speed signals over transcontinental distances without the need for electronic regeneration. Optical fibers find new applications in data processing. The impact of fiber materials, devices, and systems on communications in the coming decades will create an abundance of primary literature and the need for up-to-date reviews.
Optical Fiber Technology: Materials, Devices, and Systems is a new cutting-edge journal designed to fill a need in this rapidly evolving field for speedy publication of regular length papers. Both theoretical and experimental papers on fiber materials, devices, and system performance evaluation and measurements are eligible, with emphasis on practical applications.
