White-Light-Emitting Supramolecular Polymer Gel Based on β-CD and NDI Host-Guest Inclusion Complex.

ABSTRACT: Supramolecular polymer formed by non-covalent interactions between complementary building blocks entraps solvents and develops supramolecular polymer gel. A supramolecular polymer gel was prepared by the heating-cooling cycle of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and naphthalenedimide (NDI) solution in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The host-guest inclusion complex of β-CD and NDI 1 containing dodecyl amine forms the supramolecular polymer and gel in DMF. However, β-CD and NDI 2, having glutamic acid, fail to form the supramolecular polymer and gel under the same condition. X-ray crystallography shows that the alkyl chains of NDI 1 are complementary to the hydrophobic cavity of the two β-CD units. From rheology, the storage modulus was approximately 1.5 orders of magnitude larger than the loss modulus, which indicates the physical crosslink and elastic nature of the thermo-responsive gel. FE-SEM images of the supramolecular polymer gel exhibit flake-like morphology and a dense flake network. The flakes developed from the assembly of smaller rods. Photophysical studies show that the host-guest complex formation and gelation have significantly enhanced emission intensity with a new hump at 550 nm. Upon excitation by a 366 nm UV-light, NDI 1 and β-CD gel in DMF shows white light emission. The gel has the potential for the fabrication of organic electronic devices.

Origin of White Electroluminescence in Graphene Quantum Dots Embedded Host/Guest Polymer Light Emitting Diodes.

Project description:Polymer light emitting diodes (PLEDs) using quantum dots (QDs) as emissive materials have received much attention as promising components for next-generation displays. Despite their outstanding properties, toxic and hazardous nature of QDs is a serious impediment to their use in future eco-friendly opto-electronic device applications. Owing to the desires to develop new types of nano-material without health and environmental effects but with strong opto-electrical properties similar to QDs, graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have attracted great interest as promising luminophores. However, the origin of electroluminescence from GQDs incorporated PLEDs is unclear. Herein, we synthesized graphene oxide quantum dots (GOQDs) using a modified hydrothermal deoxidization method and characterized the PLED performance using GOQDs blended poly(N-vinyl carbazole) (PVK) as emissive layer. Simple device structure was used to reveal the origin of EL by excluding the contribution of and contamination from other layers. The energy transfer and interaction between the PVK host and GOQDs guest were investigated using steady-state PL, time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Experiments revealed that white EL emission from the PLED originated from the hybridized GOQD-PVK complex emission with the contributions from the individual GOQDs and PVK emissions.

Fluorescent Metallacage-Core Supramolecular Polymer Gel Formed by Orthogonal Metal Coordination and Host-Guest Interactions.

Project description:Herein, we report the preparation of a multifunctional metallacage-core supramolecular gel by orthogonal metal coordination and host-guest interactions. A tetragonal prismatic cage with four appended 21-crown-7 (21C7) moieties in its pillar parts was first prepared via the metal-coordination-driven self-assembly of cis-Pt(PEt3)2(OTf)2, tetraphenylethene (TPE)-based sodium benzoate ligands and linear dipyridyl ligands. Further addition of a bisammonium linker to the cage delivered a supramolecular polymer network via the host-guest interactions between the 21C7 moieties and ammonium salts, which formed a supramolecular gel at relatively higher concentrations. Due to the incorporation of a TPE derivative as the fluorophore, the gel shows emission properties. Multiple stimuli responsiveness and good self-healing properties were also observed because of the dynamic metal coordination and host-guest interactions used to stabilize the whole network structure. Moreover, the storage and loss moduli of the gel are 10-fold those of the gel without the metallacage cores, indicating that the rigid metallacage plays a significant role in enhancing the stiffness of the gel. The studies described herein not only enrich the functionalization of fluorescent metallacages via elegant ligand design but also provide a way to prepare stimuli-responsive and self-healing supramolecular gels as robust and smart materials.

Electrochemical Light-Emitting Gel

Project description:Light-emitting gel, a gel state electroluminescence material, is reported. It is composed of a ruthenium complex as the emitter, an ionic liquid as the electrolyte, and oxide nanoparticles as the gelation filler. Emitted light was produced via electrogenerated chemiluminescence. The light-emitting gel operated at low voltage when an alternating current was passed through it, regardless of its structure, which is quite thick. The luminescence property of the gel is strongly affected by nanoparticle materials. TiO2 nanoparticles were a better gelation filler than silica or ZnO was, with respect to luminescence stability, thus indicating a catalytic effect. It is demonstrated that the light-emitting gel device, with quite a simple fabrication process, flashes with the application of voltage.

Synthesis and properties of hyperbranched polymers for white polymer light-emitting diodes.

Project description:In this work, a series of hyperbranched copolymers with fluorene-alt-carbazole as the branches, three-dimensional-structured spiro[3.3]heptane-2,6-dispirofluorene (SDF) as the core, and iridium 1-(4-bromophenyl)-isoquinoline (acetylacetone) (Ir(Brpiq)2acac) as the dimming group were synthesized by one-pot Suzuki polycondensation for white emission. All copolymers show great thermal stabilities and high hole-transporting ability due to the introduction of the carbazole unit. The hyperbranched structures for copolymers can suppress the interchain interactions efficiently, and help to form amorphous films. The fabricated polymer light-emitting devices (PLEDs) based on the above synthesized copolymers realize good white light emission, and achieve high electroluminescence (EL) performance. For example, for the optimized PLED, the maximum luminance and current efficiency reach 6210 cd m-2 and 6.30 cd A-1, respectively, indicating the synthesized hyperbranched copolymers have potential application in solution-processable white polymer light-emitting diodes.

White-Light Emitting Di-Ureasil Hybrids.

Project description:White-light emitting materials have emerged as important components for solid state lighting devices with high potential for the replacement of conventional light sources. Herein, amine-functionalized organic-inorganic di-ureasil hybrids consisting of a siliceous skeleton and oligopolyether chains codoped with lanthanide-based complexes, with Eu3+ and Tb3+ ions and 4,4'-oxybis(benzoic acid) and 1,10-phenanthroline ligands, and the coumarin 1 dye were synthesized by in situ sol?gel method. The resulting luminescent di-ureasils show red, green, and blue colors originated from the Eu3+, Tb3+, and C1 emissions, respectively. The emission colors can be modulated either by variation of the relative concentration between the emitting centers or by changing the excitation wavelength. White light emission is achieved under UV excitation with absolute quantum yields of 0.148 ± 0.015, 0.167 ± 0.017, and 0.202 ± 0.020 at 350, 332, and 305 nm excitation, respectively. The emission mechanism was investigated by photoluminescence and UV?visible absorption spectroscopy, revealing an efficient energy transfer from the organic ligands to the Ln3+ ions and the organic dye, whereas negligible interaction between the dopants is discerned. The obtained luminescent di-ureasils have potential for optoelectronic applications, such as in white-light emitting diodes.

An organic white light-emitting fluorophore.

Project description:The synthesis of new benzo[a]- and [b]xanthene dye frameworks is described. A unique benzo[a]xanthene, seminaphtho[a]fluorone (SNAFR-1), is studied in a variety of media. The optimization of solution parameters and excitation wavelengths allows SNAFR-1 to display red, green, and blue emission bands of approximately equal intensities and also to produce white light. Ratiometric red (anion) and green (neutral) emissions are observed upon varying solution pH. A pH-independent violet-blue emission band is due to the addition of nucleophiles to the benzylic carbon of SNAFR-1.

Gram-Scale Synthesis of 41% Efficient Single-Component White-Light-Emissive Carbonized Polymer Dots with Hybrid Fluorescence/Phosphorescence for White Light-Emitting Diodes.

Project description:Fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) are compelling optical emitters to construct white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs). However, it remains a challenge to achieve large-scale and highly efficient single-component white-light-emissive CDs suitable for WLED applications. Herein, a low cost, fast processable, environmentally friendly, and one-step synthetic approach is developed for the preparation of gram-scale and highly efficient single-component white-light-emissive carbonized polymer dots (SW-CPDs). It is revealed that hybrid fluorescence/phosphorescence components cooperatively contribute to the emergence of white light emission. The SW-CPDs exhibit a record quantum yield (QY) of ?41% for the white light emission observed in solid-state CD systems, while the QY of the phosphorescence is ?23% under ambient conditions. Heavy doping of N and P elements as well as presence of covalently cross-linked polymer frameworks is suggested to account for the emergence of hybrid fluorescence/phosphorescence, which is supported by the experimental results and theoretical calculations. A WLED is fabricated by applying the SW-CPDs on an UV-LED chip, showing favorable white-light-emitting characteristics with a high luminous efficacy of 18.7 lm W-1 that is comparable to that of state-of-the-art WLEDs reported before.

White-Light-Emitting Melamine-Formaldehyde Microspheres through Polymer-Mediated Aggregation and Encapsulation of Graphene Quantum Dots.

Project description:Graphene quantum dot (GQD) encapsulated melamine-formaldehyde (MF) polymer microspheres with uniform particle size and tunable high-quality white-light emissions are prepared via a polymer-mediated GQD assembly and encapsulation strategy. In solution, GQDs are first aggregated with MF prepolymer through electrostatic interaction and further encapsulated inside the microspheres formed by polymerization of MF prepolymer under acid catalysis and heating. During this process, the aggregated GQDs are fixed in the MF polymer matrix with their emission extended from blue to full visible range, presenting bright white luminescence under ultraviolet excitation. The prepared white-light-emitting GQD-MF microspheres exhibit uniform morphology with an average particle size of 2.0 ± 0.08 µm and their luminescence properties are effectively regulated by the doping concentration of GQDs in the MF polymer matrix. A series of white-light-emitting GQD-MF microspheres with quantum yields from 0.83 to 0.43, Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage coordinates from (0.28, 0.28) to (0.33, 0.32), and color rendering index from 0.75 to 0.88 are obtained with excellent photostability and thermal stability. By dispersing the GQD-MF microspheres in cross-linked polydimethylsiloxane matrix, flexible film with dual functions of high-quality white-light-emitting and light diffusion is obtained and successfully applied for white light-emitting diode fabrication.

Investigation of Energy Transfer in Star-Shaped White Polymer Light-Emitting Devices via the Time-Resolved Photoluminescence.

Project description:A series of white polymer light-emitting devices (WPLEDs) were fabricated by utilizing star-shaped white-emission copolymers containing tri[1-phenylisoquinolinato-C2,N]iridium (Ir(piq)?), fluorenone (FO) and poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene) (PFO) as red-, green- and blue-emitting (RGB) components, respectively. In these WPLEDs, a maximum current efficiency of 6.4 cd·A-1 at 20 mA·cm-2 and Commission Internationale d'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.33, 0.32) were achieved, and the current efficiency was still kept to 4.2 cd·A-1 at the current density of 200 mA·cm-2. To investigate energy transfer processes among the three different chromophores of the star-shaped copolymers in these WPLEDs, the time-resolved photoluminescence (PL) spectra were recorded. By comparing the fluorescence decay lifetimes of PFO chromophores in the four star-like white-emitting copolymers, the efficient energy transfer from PFO units to Ir(piq)? and FO chromophores was confirmed. From time-resolved PL and the analysis of energy transfer process, the results as follows were proved. Owing to the star-like molecular structure and steric hindrance effect, intermolecular interactions and concentrations quenching in the electroluminescence (EL) process could also be sufficiently suppressed. The efficient energy transfer also reduced intermolecular interactions' contribution to the enhanced device performances compared to the linear single-polymer white-light systems. Moreover, saturated stable white emission results from the joint of energy transfer and trap-assisted recombination. This improved performance is expected to provide the star-like white-emitting copolymers with promising applications for WPLEDs.

Single-Component Biohybrid Light-Emitting Diodes Using a White-Emitting Fused Protein.

Project description:This work presents a pioneering multidisciplinary approach toward enhancing biohybrid light-emitting diodes (BioHLEDs), merging synthetic biology tools, polymer chemistry, and device engineering to design a thin color down-converting coating with a single white-emitting fluorescent protein (WFP). In particular, the WFP consists of fused red-, green-, and blue-emitting FPs following the so-called protein superglue approach. This WFP shows an efficient and stable white emission originated from a Förster resonance energy transfer between FP moieties. The emission chromaticity is, in addition, easily controlled by the rigidity of the polymer matrix of the coating, reaching photoluminescence quantum yields of 26% that stand out among intrinsic white-emitting materials. The WFP single-component color down-converting packaging was applied to fabricate BioHLEDs featuring efficient neutral white emission that is stable over 400 h. This represents the most stable BioHLED reported to date. Thus, this work is a landmark for the use of synthetic biology tools to design tailored luminescent biomaterials for lighting applications.
