The heavy metal ion Cu2+ was used as the research object in this study. Cu2+ was detected using a cysteine- and glutathione-modified cadmium telluride quantum dot solution. Compounds of Cu2+ and modified quantum dots on the surface caused the fluorescence quenching of quantum dots. A linear relationship existed between the concentration and the intensity of the change in fluorescence quenching. Using this linear relationship, the quantitative detection of the Cu2+ content in the solution by quantum dots was achieved; the detection band was 476-800 nm. Under optimized conditions, the detection limit of the method was 3.58×10-5 mol/L (S/N=3, n=11), and the linear range was 3×10-7 to 8×10-4 mol/L. In a certain experimental environment, standard normal variate preprocessing of the characteristic band and partial least squares modeling and analysis yielded good self-prediction and actual prediction abilities. The correction coefficient was 0.9006. The RMSEC was 8.83084 µmol/L, the determination coefficient of the validation set was 0.8686, and the RMSEP was 5.4320 µmol/L. The results showed that the modeling effect was good in the experiment, the operation was simple and convenient, and the experiment was fast, reliable, and nonpolluting, indicating that the method of detecting Cu2+ using a quantum dot fluorescent probe was feasible.

In this study, adding CsPbI3 quantum dots to organic perovskite methylamine lead triiodide (CH3NH3PbI3) to form a doped perovskite film filmed by different temperatures was found to effectively reduce the formation of unsaturated metal Pb. Doping a small amount of CsPbI3 quantum dots could enhance thermal stability and improve surface defects. The electron mobility of the doped film was 2.5 times higher than the pristine film. This was a major breakthrough for inorganic quantum dot doped organic perovskite thin films.

AbstractAll-inorganic CsPbI3 perovskite quantum dots have received substantial research interest for photovoltaic applications because of higher efficiency compared to solar cells using other quantum dots materials and the various exciting properties that perovskites have to offer. These quantum dot devices also exhibit good mechanical stability amongst various thin-film photovoltaic technologies. We demonstrate higher mechanical endurance of quantum dot films compared to bulk thin film and highlight the importance of further research on high-performance and flexible optoelectronic devices using nanoscale grains as an advantage. Specifically, we develop a hybrid interfacial architecture consisting of CsPbI3 quantum dot/PCBM heterojunction, enabling an energy cascade for efficient charge transfer and mechanical adhesion. The champion CsPbI3 quantum dot solar cell has an efficiency of 15.1% (stabilized power output of 14.61%), which is among the highest report to date. Building on this strategy, we further demonstrate a highest efficiency of 12.3% in flexible quantum dot photovoltaics.
