The formation of pi-pi stacking in the thin fluorescent film allows a highly sensitive fluorescence quenching which is detectable by the naked eye in a response time of a few seconds.EnglishExtremely fast and highly selective detection of nitroaromatic explosive vapours using fluorescent polymer thin filmsArticle10.1039/C3CC43202E
