TL;DR: The electrical response of the ZnO nanonail arrays to different gases (CO, NO2, and H2S) indicated that there could be possible application as gas sensors for this material.
Abstract: One-dimensional ZnO nanostructure arrays such as nanowires, nanonails, and nanotrees, have been synthesized by oxygen assisted thermal evaporation of metallic zinc on a quartz substrate over a large area. Morphological evolution of ZnO nanostructures at different time scales and different positions of the substrates have been studied by electron microscopy. A self-catalyzed vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) process is believed to be responsible for the nucleation and subsequently a vapor-solid process is operative for further longitudinal growth. The photoluminescence spectrum showed a weak UV and a broad green emission peak at 3.25 and 2.49 eV, respectively. The latter was attributed to the presence of zinc interstitial defects. Electrical resistivity as a function of temperature showed activated mechanisms to be present. The electrical response of the ZnO nanonail arrays to different gases (CO, NO 2 , and H 2 S) indicated that there could be possible application as gas sensors for this material.

TL;DR: In this paper, a mesoporous material is grafted with a dialdehyde fluorescent chromophore, 4-methyl-2,6-diformyl phenol.
Abstract: A highly ordered 2D-hexagonal mesoporous silica material is functionalized with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane. This organically modified mesoporous material is grafted with a dialdehyde fluorescent chromophore, 4-methyl-2,6-diformyl phenol. Powder X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, N2 sorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and UV-visible absorption and emission have been employed to characterize the material. This material shows excellent selective Zn2+ sensing, which is due to the fluorophore moiety present at its surface. Fluorescence measurements reveal that the emission intensity of the Zn2+-bound mesoporous material increases significantly upon addition of various concentrations of Zn2+, while the introduction of other biologically relevant (Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, and K+) and environmentally hazardous transition-metal ions results in either unchanged or weakened intensity. The enhancement of fluorescence is attributed to the strong covalent binding of Zn2+, evident from the large binding constant value (0.87 × 104M−1). Thus, this functionalized mesoporous material grafted with the fluorescent chromophore could monitor or recognize Zn2+ from a mixture of ions that contains Zn2+ even in trace amounts and can be considered as a selective fluorescent probe. We have examined the application of this mesoporous zinc(II) sensor to cultured living cells (A375 human melanoma and human cervical cancer cell, HeLa) by fluorescence microscopy.
