Fluorescent nanoparticles based on a microporous organic polymer network: fabrication and efficient energy transfer to surface-bound dyes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Well-defined nanoparticles composed of a tetraphenylmethane-based microporous polymer network with an average particle diameter of 30-60 nm were fabricated by a miniemulsion polymerization technique. Strong green emission was observed and efficient excitation energy transfer from nanoparticles to surface-bound dye molecules was explored.

Excitation Energy Transfer from Semi-Conducting Polymer Nanoparticles to Surface-Bound Fluorescent Dyes
Excitation energy transfer from semi-conducting polymers to fluorescent dyes (or dye-labeled analytes) is commonly used in sensor applications, e.g., for DNA and protein sensing. Semi-conducting polymers show rather high absorption cross-sections and a high intra-chain mobility of the delocalized excitations leading to a high sensitivity for the excitation light. However, sensing of biological ...

متن کاملOrganic Fluorescent Dyes Supported on Activated Boron Nitride: A Promising Blue Light Excited Phosphors for High-Performance White Light-Emitting Diodes
We report an effective and rare-earth free light conversion material synthesized via a facile fabrication route, in which organic fluorescent dyes, i.e. Rhodamine B (RhB) and fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) are embedded into activated boron nitride (αBN) to form a composite phosphor. The composite phosphor shows highly efficient Förster resonance energy transfer and greatly improved thermal s...
