Fluorescent nanoparticles based on a microporous organic polymer network: fabrication and efficient energy transfer to surface-bound dyes

Abstract

Well-defined nanoparticles composed of a tetraphenylmethane-based microporous polymer network with an average particle diameter of 30–60 nm were fabricated by a miniemulsion polymerization technique. Strong green emission was observed and efficient excitation energy transfer from nanoparticles to surface-bound dye molecules was explored.
