摘要: We demonstrate the use of hydrogel swelling as a mechanism to reversibly induce solvatochromic shifting in single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) near-infrared emission within biocompatible hydrogel. The optical sensor reports degree swelled state and glucose concentration when apo-glucose oxidase is used cross-link Photoluminescence maxima from dispersed nanotubes poly(vinyl alcohol) shift cross-linking increased, with maximum −48 meV for (6,5) nanotube. Raman tangential mode also red shifts up 17 cm−1, indicative lattice strain equivalent an effective hydrostatic pressure 3 GPa. While electronic band gaps SWNTs are known either increase or decrease uniaxial deformation depending on chiral vector, we show that detection counterintuitively non-strain-dependent. Instead, data well-described by model accounts changes dielectric screening the...
