A ratiometric fluorescent pH sensor based on nanoscale metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) modified by europium(iii) complexes

Abstract

We report a new ratiometric fluorescent pH sensor based on postsynthetically modified nanoscale MOF-253. Two types of Eu3+ with different characteristic excitation wavelength are realized in MOF-253 by a postsynthetic method (PSM). The pH sensor requires no calibration because only one of the two types of Eu3+ is affected by the pH variation.
