A label-free and immobilization-free electrochemiluminescence resonance energy transfer system based on graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets and Ru(phen)(3)(2+) is developed. This system allows for the regulation of ECL-RET through logical DNA hybridization reactions, opening up possibilities for constructing complex logic gates and circuits.
Herein, a label-free and immobilization-free electrochemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) system based on graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (GCNNs)/Ru(phen)(3)(2+) donor/acceptor pair is developed, in which the ECL-RET is regulated by regulating the diffusivity of Ru(phen)(3)(2+) molecules toward the negatively charged GCNNs through logically programmed DNA hybridization reactions. The two optical signals of GCNNs (445 nm) and Ru(phen)(3)(2+) (593 nm) show completely opposite changes through the same one-time DNA hybridization reaction. Based on this ECL-RET system, a contrary logic pair (CLP) library, a parity generator/checker system for differentiating the erroneous bits during data transmission, the parity checker to identify the even/odd natural numbers from 0 to 9, and a series of concatenated logic circuits including a six-input logic gate capable of implementing of 64 input combinations for meeting the needs of computational complexity are developed. The ECL-RET-based molecular logic system avoids the time-consuming, costly and inefficient labeling procedures and the laborious processes of immobilization, presenting great potential for building more complicated and advanced logic gates, and providing a refreshing inspiration for the construction of combinatorial logic circuits based on ECL method.
