Synthesis of light-emission from, and optical power limiting in soluble single-walled carbon nanotubes functionalized by disubstituted polyacetylenes

Article Abstract:

Disubstituted polyacetylenes designed and synthesized carrying halogen atoms at the ends of their alkyl pendants are discussed. Molecular functionalization method enables the combination of the advantageous properties of the two components in one hybrid system that is the polymer that makes the addend light emitting and the nanotube makes it optical limiting.

Protein detection and quantitation by tetraphenylethene-based fluorescent probes with aggregation-induced emission characteristics

Article Abstract:

The synthesis and fluorescence properties of three functionalized derivatives of tetraphenylethylene (TPE) are described. The possibility of using the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect for protein detection and quantification is analyzed using bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a model protein.

Structural control of the photoluminescence of silole regioisomers and their utility as sensitive regiodiscriminating chemosensors and efficient electroiuminescent materials

Article Abstract:

A group of silole regioisomers whose photoluminescence varied dramatically with its regiostructure is presented. A novel silole (13,4) that is strongly luminescent in solution and whose fluorescence quantum yield in acetone is as high as 83% is described.
