Emission enhancement of conjugated polymers through self-assembly of unimolecular micelles to multi-micelle aggregates.
نویسندگان
چکیده
By using a cosolvent self-assembly approach, the emission of multi-micelle aggregates from star copolymer unimolecular micelles is enhanced greatly through restriction of concentration self-quenching and intermolecular aggregation of a conjugated polymer core, due to the existence of a PEG shell of HCP-star-PEG unimolecular micelles.

متن کاملEffects of architecture on the stability of thermosensitive unimolecular micelles.
The influence of architecture on polymer interactions is investigated and differences between branched and linear copolymers are found. A comprehensive picture is drawn with the help of a fluorescence approach (using pyrene and 4HP as probe molecules) together with IR or NMR spectroscopy and X-ray/light scattering measurements. Five key aspects are addressed: (1) synergistic intramolecular comp...

The interaction of anionic micelle sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and amphiphilic block copolymers polyethylene-b-polyethylene glycol (PE-b-PEG) and the sharp change of excited-state charge-transfer complex photophysics of 2-(4-(dimethylamino)styryl)-1-methylpyridinium iodide (DASPMI) inside of the supramolecular assembly have been addressed in the paper. The dramatic enhancement of emission inte...
متن کاملOrganic nanospheres with an internal bicontinuous structure and their responsive phase inversion.
Nanospheres with an internal bicontinuous structure were obtained through hierarchical self-assembly of a dendritic block terpolymer in selective solvents. The self-assembly underwent a unique three stage process involving unimolecular micelle formation, multimicelle aggregation and microphase separation within a self-confined space. Reversible phase inversion of the nanospheres in response to ...
