Abstract

A cross-linkable aggregation induced emission (AIE) dye (named as R-E) with two vinyl end groups was facilely incorporated into polymer nanoparticles through reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer polymerization. Thus obtained polymeric nanoparticles showed uniform size, high water dispersibility, strong red fluorescence and excellent biocompatibility, making them promising for cell imaging applications.
