Emission quench of water-soluble ZnS–AgInS2 solid solution nanocrystals and its application to chemosensors

Taro Uematsu, Shohei Taniguchi, Tsukasa Torimoto and Susumu Kuwabata


Redox-dependent emission quenching of low toxic ZnS–AgInS2 semiconductor nanocrystals was studied and the obtained behavior was found to be applicable to fabrication of fluorescent biosensors in combination with redox enzymes.
