Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. In the description of the present invention, "plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.
[0037] Organic photoelectrochemical transistor (OPECT) sensors are a new class of electrochemical sensing devices developed based on the correlation between the conversion of changes in target analyte concentration into changes in power signals (e.g., gate current, channel current, etc.). OPECT sensors combine OECT and PEC sensing technologies, using the PEC working electrode as the OECT gate, and have shown great potential for sensitive detection of chemical and biological species. Compared to traditional PEC biosensors, OPECT sensors are characterized by their inherent signal amplification capabilities, which significantly improves sensor sensitivity. Compared to OECTs, OPECT sensors combine the advantages of PECs' separation of the excitation source and signal detection systems, reducing background signals and eliminating the need for an external gate voltage, thus eliminating the need for additional voltages and reducing power consumption. Given their advantages such as low cost, zero gate voltage, mechanical flexibility, and biocompatibility, OPECTs are currently widely used in diverse biosensing fields, such as enzyme sensing, DNA detection, immunoassays, and cell analysis.
[0038] Therefore, the inventors of this application considered applying OPECT to the detection of organic pesticides in the environment. Designing a photoactive gate electrode with high optical performance, high OPECT efficiency, and stability is key to constructing an OPECT sensor for organic pesticides in the environment. The inventors of this application first considered using metal sulfides, which are important photoelectrochemical materials due to their excellent light absorption, structural, and optical properties. Heterojunction materials with grating structures are composed of two or more semiconductors. These heterojunction grating materials can regulate the interface band alignment and strong charge separation, thereby achieving better photoelectric performance than single semiconductor materials. The inventors subsequently discovered that multimetallic sulfide grating materials offer advantages such as good chemical stability, excellent band tunability, and a rich elemental composition, showing promising prospects for better photoelectric performance than traditional binary metal sulfides. In particular, directly constructing a metal sulfide heterojunction in situ can achieve good lattice matching, promote continuous band alignment, and effectively eliminate interfacial impedance. This approach enhances charge transfer and suppresses the recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs, significantly improving the efficiency and stability of charge separation and transport. Finally, an indium-based bimetallic sulfide material was prepared as a photoactive gate electrode, and the organic pesticide aptamer and indium-based bimetallic sulfide heterojunction material were further combined to construct an OPECT aptamer sensor, thereby realizing rapid and highly sensitive detection of organic pesticides.
[0039] Based on the above inventive concept, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for preparing an organic photoelectrochemical transistor (OPECT) for detecting organic pesticides, which comprises the following steps:
[0040] Step 1), dissolving thioacetamide in a bimetallic salt precursor solution, and performing a hydrothermal reaction to obtain an indium-based bimetallic sulfide heterojunction CdS / CdIn2S4; the bimetallic salt precursor solution includes: Cd 2+ The first metal salt can provide In 3+ a second metal salt of;
[0041] Step 2), dispersing the naphthol solution and the indium-based bimetallic sulfide heterojunction CdS / CdIn2S4 in deionized water to obtain a suspension, applying the suspension to the surface of ITO conductive glass, and drying to obtain a photogate CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO;
[0042] Step 3), drop-coating the chitosan solution on the surface of the photogate CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO, and drying to obtain the photogate CS / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO; drop-coating the glutaraldehyde solution on the surface of the photogate CS / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO, and drying to obtain the photogate CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO;
[0043] Step 4), the diazinon aptamer solution is drop-coated on the surface of the photogate CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO, and after incubation at room temperature, the electrode sensor Apt / CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO is obtained, that is, OPECT for detecting organic pesticides.
[0044] In the preparation method provided in this embodiment, step 1) is the step of preparing the indium-based bimetallic sulfide heterojunction CdS / CdIn2S4. In this step, the bimetallic salt precursor solution is used to provide a bimetallic ion source (the first metal salt provides Cd 2+ and the second metal salt provides In 3+ ); Thioacetamide provides S as a sulfur source 2+ Thioacetamide (CH3CSNH2, TAA) is hydrolyzed under heating conditions to release S 2 -ion. Cd 2+ 、In 3+ With S 2 -combined to form sulfide precipitation and formed an interface-coupled heterostructure CdS / CdIn2S4 through in situ growth.
[0045] The solvent for the bimetallic salt precursor solution is preferably a mixed solution of ethylene glycol and ethanol. The high-boiling point solvent ethylene glycol helps prolong the reaction time and promote slow crystal growth, while ethanol helps reduce surface tension and inhibit particle agglomeration. The volume ratio of ethanol to ethylene glycol in the solvent is preferably 1:1-3, and most preferably 1:2.5. The first metal salt is preferably selected from cadmium chloride hydrate or cadmium nitrate hydrate; the second metal salt is preferably selected from indium chloride hydrate or indium nitrate hydrate. The molar ratio of the first metal salt, the second metal salt, and thioacetamide is (0.1-3):(0.05-1.5):(0.5-15), more preferably (0.6-1.2):(0.3-0.8):(4-7), and most preferably 1:0.5:5. The concentration of the first metal salt in the bimetallic salt precursor solution is preferably 0.03-1 mol / L, more preferably 0.2-0.5 mol / L, and most preferably 0.33 mol / L.
[0046] The hydrothermal reaction temperature in this step is preferably 100-200°C, and the reaction time is preferably 5-16 hours, more preferably 160-200°C, and the reaction time is 8-16 hours. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the hydrothermal reaction is carried out in a closed environment. After the reaction is completed, the resulting mixture is naturally cooled to room temperature, and then centrifuged, washed, and vacuum-dried to obtain the indium-based bimetallic sulfide heterojunction CdS / CdIn2S4. The washing process can be performed by washing with water and alcohol several times.
[0047] Step 2) is a step of fixing the CdS / CdIn2S4 heterojunction material on the surface of the ITO conductive glass by solution drop coating to form a gate electrode with a light-responsive function. It is to first prepare a CdS / CdIn2S4 / naphthol suspension. The dispersion in this step is preferably ultrasonic dispersion, and the cavitation effect is used to destroy the particle agglomeration. The concentration of the indium-based bimetallic sulfide heterojunction CdS / CdIn2S4 in the suspension is preferably 1.0-5.0 mg / mL, and the drop coating density on the ITO conductive glass surface is preferably 50-100 μL / cm 2 In the suspension, naphthol acts as a surfactant. Its hydrophobic naphthalene ring adsorbs onto the sulfide surface, while the hydrophilic -OH group hydrogen bonds with water molecules, promoting uniform dispersion of CdS / CdIn2S4 in water. The concentration of naphthol is preferably 0.03-0.06 mg / mL, and most preferably 0.04 mg / mL. After coating, the substrate is dried naturally, preferably rinsed with deionized water, and then air-dried to obtain the CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO photogate.

[0049] Step 3) involves modifying the surface of the base CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO photogate to form a chitosan (CS)-glutaraldehyde (GA) crosslinking system. This system is used to construct a three-dimensional network structure on the photogate surface, providing active sites for subsequent aptamer immobilization. Specifically, CS is first immobilized on the CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO surface using a solution drop coating method. CS forms a monolayer on the electrode surface through electrostatic adsorption and hydrogen bonding, resulting in the photogate CS / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO. GA is then introduced onto the CS / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO surface using a solution drop coating method. CS and GA crosslink to form a porous gel layer, resulting in the photogate CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO. This modified CS / GA layer on the photogate surface provides chemical anchoring sites for subsequent aptamer immobilization and exhibits excellent biocompatibility, reducing nonspecific adsorption.

[0051] In this step, the chitosan solution is preferably dried at room temperature after drop coating, preferably for 1-2 hours, then rinsed with phosphate buffer solution, and then dried again to obtain the CS / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO photogate. The glutaraldehyde solution is also preferably dried at room temperature after drop coating, preferably for 1-2 hours, then rinsed with phosphate buffer solution, and then dried again to obtain the CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO photogate.
[0052] In step 4), the diazinon aptamer (Apt) is immobilized on the CS / GA modified photogate surface by directional covalent coupling using a drop coating method, forming a biosensor interface that can specifically capture the target molecule, diazinon (DZN). The concentration of the diazinon aptamer solution is preferably 0.1 to 5 μmol / L, and the drop coating density is preferably 10 to 30 μL / cm 2 More preferably, the concentration of the diazinon aptamer solution is 1-2 μmol / L, and the drop coating density is 10 μL / cm 2 The incubation time at room temperature is preferably 6 to 18 hours, more preferably 8 to 12 hours. After incubation, the electrode is preferably rinsed with a phosphate buffer solution to remove any unanchored aptamers on the electrode surface, and then air-dried at room temperature to obtain the electrode sensor Apt / CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO. The sequence number of the diazinon aptamer Apt is preferably 5'-ATCCgTCACACCTgCTCTAATATAgAggTATTgCTCTTggACAAggTACAgg gATggTgTTggCTCCCgTAT-3'.

After rinsing with phosphate buffer solution, the standard electrode DZN / Apt / CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO was obtained.

The aggregation phenomenon in CdS / CdIn2S4 is significantly reduced, indicating that the addition of CdS effectively inhibits the aggregation behavior of CdIn2S4, which is originally tightly packed. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) images clearly show ( Figure 2 c) Clearly showing lattice fringes with spacings of 0.334 nm and 0.323 nm, corresponding to the (311) planes of CdIn2S4 and the (101) planes of CdS, respectively. The interlaced lattices of CdS and CdIn2S4 confirm the presence of a heterostructure, and their interlaced lattices also confirm the close contact of the heterostructure.
[0091] The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) of CdS / CdIn2S4 prepared in Example 1 is shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 In the figure, ac are high-resolution spectra of Cd 3d, In 3d, and S2p, respectively. Figure 3 a It can be seen that the peaks at 405.45 and 412.20 eV correspond to Cd 3d 5 / 2 and Cd 3d 3 / 2 , indicating that the oxidation state of Cd ions is +2. Figure 3 b can be seen that In 3d 5 / 2 and In 3d 3 / 2 The binding energies of In are 445.15eV and 452.70eV respectively, and In exists in the +3 valence state. Figure 3 c It can be seen that the peaks at 161.85 and 163.0 eV belong to S2p 3 / 2 and S2p 1 / The oxidation state of S is -2. The binding energies of Cd, In, and S in CdS / CdIn2S4 all shift slightly toward higher energies due to the support of CdS. This slight positive shift is primarily due to electronic interactions between CdIn2S4 and CdS, indicating that CdIn2S4 tends to lose electrons and transfer them to CdS. XPS results further demonstrate the successful preparation of the CdS / CdIn2S4 composite material.
[0092] The solid ultraviolet diffuse reflectance (DRS) graphs of CdS / CdIn2S4 prepared in Example 1, CdS prepared in Comparative Example 1 and CdIn2S4 prepared in Comparative Example 2 are as follows: Figure 4 shown. Figure 4In the figure, a represents CdIn2S4, b represents CdS, and c represents CdS / CdIn2S4. As shown in the figure, CdIn2S4 exhibits superior visible light absorption compared to CdS, while CdS has stronger UV absorption. By constructing a CdS / CdIn2S4 heterojunction composite, the resulting material not only retains the outstanding UV absorption properties of CdS but also exhibits the visible light responsiveness derived from the CdIn2S4 component. Furthermore, the CdS / CdIn2S4 heterostructure further facilitates carrier excitation, enhancing photoelectric conversion efficiency.
[0093] In order to explore the charge separation behavior of the samples and clarify the mechanism of enhanced photoelectric performance in CdS / CdIn2S4 composite materials, the photoelectric performance of CdIn2S4 and CdS / CdIn2S4 was tested. The photoelectrochemical detection method and conditions are as follows:
[0094] The electrochemical tests were all performed on a CHI660E electrochemical workstation (Shanghai Chenhua Instrument Co., Ltd.), and the excitation light source was a 300W xenon lamp (PLS-SXE300, Beijing Bofeilai Technology Co., Ltd.). The photoelectric performance test used a traditional three-electrode system: a modified electrode (CdIn2S4 or CdS / CdIn2S4) as the working electrode, a platinum wire electrode as the counter electrode, and a saturated Ag / AgCl electrode as the reference electrode. The photocurrent tests were all performed at room temperature in a phosphate buffer solution (0.1 mol / L, pH = 7.0) without applying any bias. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was performed in a solution containing 5 mmol / L Fe(CN)6 3- / 4- The experiment was carried out in a phosphate buffer solution (0.1 mol / L, pH=7.0) containing 0.1 mol / L KCl, with a frequency range of 0.01 Hz to 10 kHz, an initial potential of 0.24 V, and an AC amplitude of 5 mV.
[0095] The photocurrent and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) diagrams of CdS / CdIn2S4 prepared in Example 1 and CdIn2S4 prepared in Comparative Example 2 are shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 A is the photocurrent diagram, and B is the EIS diagram. In the figure, a is CdIn2S4, and b is CdS / CdIn2S4. Figure 5 As shown in Figure a, all synthesized samples exhibited good photocurrent responses. Furthermore, the photocurrent response of CdS / CdIn2S4 was approximately twice that of CdIn2S4, indicating that the heterojunction formed after the introduction of CdS exhibits rapid carrier separation. Electron emission characteristics (EIS) testing further investigated the electron transfer capability of the composite material, indicating that a smaller radius indicates a stronger electron transfer capability. Compared to CdIn2S4, the CdS / CdIn2S4 sample exhibited a smaller arc radius in the dark, indicating that the heterojunction exhibits rapid electron transfer efficiency, thereby enhancing photoelectrochemical performance.
[0096] Figure 6 This is the rate diagram of CdS / CdIn2S4 prepared in Example 1. Figure 6 It can be seen that the current gain of the system after lighting (ΔI D / ΔI G ) more than 10 4 , demonstrating its superior efficiency in amplifying small gate current changes. This photoresponsive behavior can be attributed to the modulation of channel conductance, which generates a voltage across the photogate and drives ion migration. These results suggest that the composite material is promising for constructing organic photoelectrochemical transistor-based aptamer sensors and achieving efficient DZN detection.
[0097] Based on this, a sensor was constructed and I D For testing, see Figure 7 , Figure 7 The channel current (ID) diagram of different sensors, Figure 7 a is CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO, b is CS / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO, c is CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO, d is Apt / CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO, and e is DZN / Apt / CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO (10 μL, concentration 1.96 pg L -1 The DZN solution was applied on the surface of the Apt / CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO electrode, dried naturally at room temperature, rinsed with phosphate buffer solution, and dried at room temperature to obtain the product). Figure 7 Shows the different I under corresponding illumination D . I of CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO gate D It is about 54.07mA (curve a). After CS, GA and aptamer are modified in sequence, its I D When the sensor was incubated with DZN, I D It increases slightly (curve f).

After rinsing with a phosphate buffer solution, the solution was air-dried at room temperature to obtain a standard electrode DZN / Apt / CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO. The standard electrode DZN / Apt / CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO was used as a photogate to connect the source and drain of an organic electrochemical transistor. A phosphate buffer solution was used as an electrolyte. The channel current-time (I) of the OPECT sensor was obtained under a preset bias voltage. D -t) curve. Figure 8 I for Apt / CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO detection of DZN D Response diagram, where a is the channel current diagram obtained by detecting different concentrations of DZN, and b is the linear relationship diagram of the DZN concentration logarithm-channel current. Figure 8 a It can be seen that with the increase of DZN concentration, the I D The signal gradually increases. And there is a certain linear relationship between the logarithm of DZN concentration and the response signal ( Figure 8 b), linear range: 0.2 pg L -1 ~19.6 μg L -1 , the linear equation is I D / I0=0.1803-0.0859log(C DZN / pg L -1 )(R 2 =0.993), and the detection limit was as low as 0.067 pg L -1 .
[0099] Figure 9 Figure 3 shows the selectivity (a), stability (b), and reproducibility (c) of Apt / CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO for detecting DZN. The selectivity of the constructed OPECT sensor for detecting DZN target molecules was investigated using omethoate (OMT), glufosinate ammonium (GLA), edifenthal (EDF), imidacloprid (IMI), and atrazine (ATZ) as interfering species. The specific method is as follows: First, the aptamer was optimized (0.3 μM, 10 h incubation) and the aptamer was measured at 10 μM and 19.6 pg L -1 The standard response signal of DZN was obtained, and then the concentration of (1960 pg L -1 ) of each interferer and record the channel current of the sensor (I D Selectivity was assessed by comparing the rate of signal change before and after the addition of interfering substances.
[0100] Figure 9 Figure a shows that in the presence of the DZN aptamer, the sensor's photocurrent response caused by interfering species is essentially negligible. Thanks to the specific recognition between the DZN aptamer and DZN, the sensor exhibits a significant change in channel current in response to DZN, demonstrating its strong anti-interference capability. After 1000 seconds of on-off light irradiation, the sensor's photocurrent stabilizes, demonstrating the sensor's excellent stability in detecting DZN. Figure 9 b) At the same time, 5 identical Apt / CS / GA / CdS / CdIn2S4-ITO electrodes were prepared to evaluate the reproducibility of the DZN test. Figure 9 As can be seen in Figure c, the constructed sensor exhibits good reproducibility, with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 2.228%.
