Abstract
Different from prevalent approaches such as immunological recognition, complementary base pairing, or enzymatic regulation in current photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing, this study reported an excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT)-driven photon-gating PEC sensor. The sensor is developed for the detection of CO-releasing molecule-3 (CORM-3) by modifying an ESIPT-switched organic fluorescent probe molecule (NDAA) onto the surface of a p-type semiconductor (BiOI). The NDAA can be excited and exhibit strong green fluorescence after responding with CORM-3, resulting in an electrode-interface photon competitive absorption effect due to the switch on ESIPT and considerably reducing the photocurrent…
