Luminescent Core (luminescent + core)
Selected AbstractsSynthesis of Carrier-Transporting Dendrimers with Perylenebis(dicarboximide)s as a Luminescent CoreEUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 4 2006Jianfeng Pan Abstract Well-defined, modular dendrimers enable processing techniques and electronic properties to be tuned independently. Moreover, the dendritic topology can isolate the core chromophore, thus reducing or eliminating strong intermolecular interactions. This paper presents the synthesis of three series of flexible, dendron-functionalized dendrimers as red-light-emitting materials by a convergent approach: (1) carbazole (CZ) or oxadiazole (OXZ) terminated imide-type dendrimers, (2) cascade energy-transferring imide-type dendrimers, and (3) CZ-terminated perylene bay-type dendrimers. They all consist of the luminescent core of perylenebis(dicarboximide)s with specific functional groups of CZ or OXZ at the periphery and are constructed from flexible Fréchet-type poly(aryl ether) dendrons. The chemical structures of the dendrons and dendrimers were determined by standard spectroscopic techniques including 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and low/high-resolution mass spectrometry (ESI or MALDI-TOF). The dendrimers are designed on the basis of the following considerations: (1) dendron functionalization to incorporate CZ or OXZ units to realize the carrier-injection adjustment, (2) tuning or improving solubility, functionality, glass-transition temperature (Tg) with well-defined dendrons, and (3) avoiding luminescence quenching with the help of high site-isolation of dendrons to enhance core luminescence. DSC results indicate that the incorporation of Fréchet-type poly(aryl ether) dendrons can improve the amorphous properties and increase Tg. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Funct.ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS, Issue 18 2009Mater. Lanthanide-doped nanoparticles capable of (up)converting near-infrared (NIR) light to higher energies via an anti-Stokes process known as upconversion have demonstrated extraordinary potential in biological applications on the virtue that background fluorescence is near-zero. To maximize the intensity of the upconverted luminescence in lanthanide-doped nanoparticles, Vetrone et al. utilize a core/active-shell architecture where the active-shell readily absorbs NIR light and transfers it to the active luminescent core, thereby increasing the upconversion emission, as described on page 2924.

Anthopoulos High efficiency, solution-processed electroluminescent devices are realized using two new red-light-emitting phosphorescent dendrimers (see Figure). By modulating the dendrimer architecture (changing the structure of the luminescent core), tuning of the emission spectra is demonstrated. Processability in organic solvents is achieved by incorporating the red-emitting cores into dendrimers with suitable surface groups and dendrons.

Lezhnina Abstract Rare-earth fluorides are a class of materials with considerable potential in optical applications. Fluoride lattices typically permit high coordination numbers for the hosted rare-earth ions, and the high ionicity of the rare-earth-to-fluorine bond leads to a wide bandgap and very low vibrational energies. These factors make rare-earth fluorides very useful in optical applications employing vacuum ultraviolet and near-infrared excitation. The preparation of nanometer-sized particles has opened the door for new properties and devices if the performance of their macroscopic counterparts can be conserved in the nanometer regime. However, at small particle sizes, defect surface states and adhering water reduce the optical efficiency. These shortcomings can be reduced by applying protective shells around the luminescent cores, which can also be involved in the luminescent process. [source] |
