“…The porosity of these matrices can make them capable of entrapping and immobilizing fluorescent dyes to sense different explosives. During the past decades, chemical sensors based on fluorescence quenching have been fabricated and studied in many laboratories [22][23][24][25]. To the best of our knowledge, there is no report on fluorescence quenching of rhodamine 6G by 1,3,5-Trinitroperhydro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) in sol-gel matrix.…”
