Abstract

The incorporation of anthracene (Ant) into nanoporous silica/surfactant nanocomposite spheres was successfully achieved using a mechanochemical solid state reaction. The Ant molecules were incorporated into the nanopores while preserving the silica nanostructures, indicating the effective hydrophobic interactions with the alkyl chains of the surfactant. The blue photoluminescence intensity due to the monomer state was enhanced by increasing the mechanochemical milling force, suggesting this is an efficient preparation method for a luminescent medium by monomeric assembly of the Ant molecules.
