First, BSPDA was synthesized by simple procedures, and then an approach was developed to immobilize BSPDA onto the nano-gold layer deposited on a silane modified glass substrate, whereby europium ion (Ⅲ, Eu^3+ ) was captured and released owing to the interactive process of complexation and dissociation between BSPDA functionalized coating and Eu^3+ solution. The fluorescence spectra and related lifetimes were determined. Also, the BSPDA functionalized coating's specific complexation with Eu^3+ on the BSPDA assembly layer and the nonspecific adsorption of Eu^3+ on the nano-gold layer were compared. These results allowed a selective complexation of Eu^3+ by assembling a BSPDA chelating layer on the nano-gold layer; thus, a tunable time-resolved fluorescent layer was covalently attached, The results of the nanoparticle assembling and probing (or labeling) processes to specific bio-systems were very interesting and had significant implications to time-resolved-fluorescence-based detection on biosensor surfaces such as DNA chip and to arrayed light display devices.展开更多

In the method, an image-exclusive-OR treatment with filter threshold adaptively chosen is presented to extract the region of interest from dual-gated fluorescence intensity images, and then the fluorescence lifetime image is reconstructed based on the rapid lifetime determination algorithm. Furthermore, a maximum and minimum threshold filtering is developed to automatically realize visualization enhancement of the lifetime image. In proof experiments, compared with traditional fluorescence intensity imaging and rapid lifetime determination method, the proposed method automatically distinguishes altered and obliterated documents written by two brands of highlighters with the same color and close fluorescence lifetime.展开更多

The theoretical model of the triple exciplex formation for a flexible polymer chain in a dilute solution has been proposed. The fluorescence decays of the monomer, the exciplex and the triple exciplex obey a double exponential rule in the pbotophysical processes of the triple exciplex formation. The association rate constant of the exciplex formation is k_3=6.0×10~9s^(-1)(mol/L)^(-1); the association rate constant of the triple exciplex formation is k_6=5.2×10~7s^(-1). A mechanism for the triple exciplex formation from the exciplex to the triple exciplex has been proved through the noncrystal films corresponding to the same concentrations of the solution systems and the fluorescence lifetimes of the intramolecular excimer.展开更多

文摘Photoswitchable fluorescent polymeric nanoparticles were widely concerned because of their excellent features including the flexible design,easy preparation and functionalization,and thus exhibited great application potential in information encryption,anti-counterfeiting,but remained challenging in improving the security.Herein,we described a self-erased time-resolved information encryption via using photoswitchable dual-color fluorescent polymeric nanoparticles(PDFPNs)containing two fluorescence dyes(blue and red)and photochromic spiroxazine derivatives.In view of the different thermo-induced isomerization rates of photochromic spiroxazine derivatives in different flexible substrates,the decoloration rate of PDFPNs can be programmatically tuned by regulating ratio between rigid polymer and flexible polymer.Therefore,after ultraviolet light(UV)irradiation,correct information could only be recognized in preestablished time during the self-erased process.Our results indicated that PDFPNs exhibited fast photo-responsibility(2 min),high fluorescence contrast,well-pleasing photo-reversibility(>20 times),and programmable thermo-responsiveness(24 s-6 h).We thus demonstrated their application in the selferased time-resolved information encryption and anti-counterfeiting with high security.

文摘Very recently,we have proposed that all culprit molecules of arteriosclerosis mightpossess a common and measurable inherent property,namely,a coaggregating ten-dency.Extensive kinetic measurements of these tendencies in terms of △CAgC valueshave led to a new and surprising observation,i.e.,the cholesteryl ester with a longsaturated 18-carbon chain(CE-18)actually has a much smaller tendency towardcoaggregation than that of the ester with a“short”8-carbon chain(CE-8).Thisstate of affairs has been coined as the“chain-foldability effect”,i.e.,the 18-carbon
文摘IN a previous paper, we have studied the energy transfer mechanism among the PBS-thy-lakoid complex in detail by using steady-state spectra and deconvolution techniques. The ex-perimental results indicated that the energy transfer from PBS to two reaction centers of PS Ⅰand PS Ⅱ were parallel, and confirmed the model which was suggested by Mullineaxu.

文摘Triple exciplex formed between polyacenaphthalene and terephthalic dimethylester (TDE) has been studied by means of the steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectra. The theoretical model of the triple exciplex formation for a flexible polymer chain in a dilute solution has been proposed. The fluorescence decays of the monomer, the exciplex and the triple exciplex obey a double exponential rule in the pbotophysical processes of the triple exciplex formation. The association rate constant of the exciplex formation is k_3=6.0×10~9s^(-1)(mol/L)^(-1); the association rate constant of the triple exciplex formation is k_6=5.2×10~7s^(-1). A mechanism for the triple exciplex formation from the exciplex to the triple exciplex has been proved through the noncrystal films corresponding to the same concentrations of the solution systems and the fluorescence lifetimes of the intramolecular excimer.
文摘An intramolecular excimer of poly(2- vinyl) naphthalene was formed by non-adjacentchromophores interaction, then a triple exciplex was formed by interaction with the acceptormolecule further in dilute solution. The lifetime of the intramolecular excimer of poly(2-vinyl) naphthalene, τ_2 = 18.83 ns and the rate constant for the triple exciplex formation,k_7 = 4. 18× 10~9 (mol/L)^(-1)s^(-1), under diffusion-control were measured. An excimer or anexciplex could be an intermediate of the triple exciplex formation. A theoretical model ofthe triple exciplex formation is proposed.

文摘Bay-site carboxyl functionalized perylene diimide derivative 1,7-COOH-PDI-C_(12)(PDI-COOH)was synthesized and distinct enhanced fluorescence was observed through combining with calcium ion(Ca^(2+))in THF/H_(2)O solution.The assembly and fluorescence behavior of PDI-COOH/Ca^(2+)were studied in detail by changing hydration state with different concentrations.Based on the differences in assembly morphology and stoichiometric ratios of PDICOOH/Ca^(2+),we proposed the fluorescence emission mechanism of PDI-COOH/Ca^(2+)in THF/H_(2)O and THF,respectively.This work reveals a novel strategy of aggregated state fluorescence enhancement and reminds us of the important role of water in molecular fluorescence emission and assembly.
