Construction of multi-layered white emitting organic nanoparticles by clicking polymers

Abstract

A series of blue, green and red emitting polymers that are appropriately functionalized with alkyne and azide functional groups have been prepared and clicked together to construct bi-layered and tri-layered white emitting core-shell type nanoparticles. Here the use of these organic hetero-nanoparticles as colour converters to realize a white light-emitting diode platform acquiring a colour quality comparable to the existing phosphor-based ones was also demonstrated. © The Royal Society of Chemistry.
