In this work, the results on using biosensor composed from quantum dots as transducer and acetylcholinesterase enzymes (AChE) to detect pesticides optically are presented. The used quantum dots were CdTe, CdSe/ZnS 10 monolayer (ML) and CdSe/ZnSe2ML/ZnS 8 ML – the brand new thick-shell quantum dots (QD). The study results pointed out that the CdSe/ZnS 10 ML and CdSe/ZnSe 2ML/ZnS 8ML quantum dots best fit for the role of transducers in biosensors. In the biosensor, acetylthiocholine (ATCh) is used as indicator for the AChE enzymes to work, since it is a very powerful hydrolyte with the presence of AChE enzymes. Moreover, the organophosphorus (OP) pesticides are the inhibitors for the AChE enzymes, thus, by the biosensors that we designed, we can detect pesticides by the change in photoluminescence (PL) intensity of QDs, with the detection of OP like parathion methyl is 0.05 ppm, and acetamiprid is 2.5 ppm.

ABSTRACTWe investigate self-assembled InAs quantum dots by photoluminescence (PL) and capacitance spectroscopies. By employing specially designed backelectrode configurations, we can control the number of electrons, which are confined in the quantum dots. With PL experiments we study the dependence of the s-s transition on the electron occupation of the quantum dots. We observe a characteristic redshift of the s-s transition when the s-shell is filled with electrons. However, if the p-shell of the quantum dots starts to fill, the samples with different backelectrode configurations show a different behavior. In one type of samples, the signal stays redshifted, while in the other it blueshifts again. The effect can be explained by different hole capture processes in both types of samples.
