Core-shell mesoporous silica nanospheres encapsulated with rhodamine 101 into the solid core and 8-aminoquinoline derivatives into the mesoporous shell were used as a ratiometric fluorescent sensor to detect metal ions, which shows a high selectivity and sensitivity to Zn²⁺. Concentrations as low as 5 × 10⁻⁸ M can be detected and the addition of other metal ions has a negligible influence on the fluorescence emission. Moreover, the dye-doped nanospheres show excellent photostability, no dye leaking and a good adsorption capacity to Zn²⁺, which make it repeatedly applicable for simultaneous heavy metal ion sensing and removal from polluted water.
