“…Until now, numerous sensing mechanisms have been proposed and elucidated for designing fluorescent chemosensors, including the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) 17,22,[30][31][32][33][34][35][36] , the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) 8,9,[37][38][39][40] , the excited state proton transfer (ESPT) 16,[41][42][43][44][45] , and the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) [46][47][48][49][50] . Thereinto, ICT mechanism is usually adopted to design the ratiometric fluorescent chemosensors 17,21,22,29,34,51,52 .…”
