Abstract
A highly sensitive and selective two-photon sensing scheme for detection of cartap was developed by using Au@Ag bimetallic core-shell nanoparticles. Cartap was found to induce the aggregation of Au@Ag nanoparticles and up to 700-fold enhancement in two-photon photoluminescence. Huge enhancement in two-photon photoluminescence allows achieving a detection limit of as low as 0.0062 mg/kg, which is better than the conventional colorimetric methods. This two-photon sensing scheme has a broad dynamic range and displays excellent selectivity in detection of cartap against over other ten kinds of commonly used insecticides.
