Popis: The development of novel single molecular probe based optical ratiometric oxygen sensor with simple fabrication, high sensitivity, and linear response is highly desirable. Herein, benzo[ghi]perylene (BzP) and coronene (Cron) were explored as dual-emissive ratiometric oxygen nano-sensors that displayed linear plots at a low probe concentration (6 μM). The sensor fabrication was simple, and the probes exhibited efficient fluorescence quenching of monomer emission by molecular oxygen. However, the excimer emission of probe remained unaffected. Thus a ratiometric method is developed based on the dual emitting luminophore. The method can be used to estimate dissolved oxygen in liquids and 5–100% of oxygen concentration in gaseous mixtures.
