Minute Torsional Reorganization Elicited Large Visible Range Fluorescence Gain in Terphenyl Derived Crystals

Understanding the variations in the solid-state optical signals of organic semiconductor materials upon subtle structural rearrangement or intermolecular interactions would help to extract the best performance in their electro-optic devices....

Achieving of sandwich-like laminated composite materials for robust superhydrophobicity, rapid photochromism and photo-mask writable media

Photochromic materials with anti-water properties have impressed practical values, but their applications are severely hindered by poor stability and slow colour-switching rate. Inspired by the superhydrophobicity of lotus leaf and...

Strain-Insensitive Naphthalene-Diimide-Based Conjugated Polymers Through Sequential Regularity Control

Diversified structure design is applied to donor−acceptor (D−A)-type conjugated polymers (CPs) to improve their mobility−stretchability properties. Most methods that are capable of improving mechanical durability without sacrificing charge transport performance...

Mechanically robust, creep resistant, intrinsic antibacterial and reprocessable dynamic polyurethane networks based on Azine moiety

Thermoset polyurethanes have been applied in various fields by virtue of their outstanding properties. However, the thermosets can not be recycled due to their permanent crosslinking structure, which exerted detrimental...

Stacking-dependent tetracolour luminescence and mechanofluorochromic properties of an isoquinoline derivative with aggregation-induced emission

Although nearly one-third of organic compounds have polymorphism, more than three polymorphs with definite crystalline structures in an organic molecule are very rare. Herein, an aggregation-induced-emission-active isoquinoline derivative containing ethyl...

3D printed cellulose based product applications

3D printed cellulose can be applied to various fields, such as packaging, paper, construction, automotive and aerospace, separator, biomedical, electronic, sensor, and living ink applications.

Synthesis and Structure Design of I-III-VI Quantum Dots for White Light-emitting Diodes

Quantum-dot-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have been considered as promising alternatives to the traditional light sources due to their photo- and thermal-stability, emission wavelength tunability, and so forth. From the past...

Chiral Tetracoordinate Organoboranes Based on Double B←N Bridged Bipyridine with Circularly Polarized Luminescence

Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) has received great attention because the CPL materials are very promising in chiroptical applications. In this article, we report a new kind of chiral tetracoordinate organoboranes...

Acid-responsive aggregated SERS nanoparticles for improved tumor diagnose

Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technology has attracted increasing attention in histopathologic examination for tumor diagnose due to its high resolution and photo-stability. However, the diagnostic accuracy is inadequate due...
