Bright luminescence hybrid halide perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) as a novel fluorophore class have not been broadly explored in biological sensing. Herein, we synthesized highly fluorescent CsPbBr 3 PNCs through the LARP method using oleic acid and oleyl amine as capping ligands. Morphological and optical properties of as-synthesized PNCs were studied using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, UV-vis, and emission spectroscopic analysis. Oleic acid- and oleyl amine-capped PNCs are employed for sensitive and selective detection of bilirubin (BR). A panel of characterizations (time-correlated single-photon count spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL)) was carried out to investigate the detailed sensing study of PNCs-BR composite for quenching the PL emission of CsPbBr 3 with BR. It has been noticed that the synthesized nanoparticles are highly capable of detecting BR and thus act as a biological material sensor.
