Red shining silica: macroscopic pigments and nanoparticles by silylation

Heinz Langhals, Andreas J. Esterbauer and Simon Kinzel


Red shining perylene fluorescent dyes were obtained by their lateral extension with imidazole attached with methoxysilanes and applied for the grafting of silica nanoparticles. The interaction of chromophores at the surface of the nanoparticles was managed by external media and controlled their optical properties.
