Abstract

Highlights: [•] Hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMS) was developed by varying solvents. [•] FITC (pH sensitive dye) and RITC (pH insensitive dye) was functionalized on HMS. [•] Broad range pH sensor with range of 3.2–9.0 is obtained by ratiometric fluorescence. [•] Various surface curvatures of HMS are responsible for the extensive pH range. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
