It was still a formidablechallenge to fabricate CPL-active perovskites with significant luminescent asymmetry factor (glum) and full-colour-tailorableCPL properties. Indeed, compared to isotropic perovskites, anisotropic perovskite nanowires (NWs)were conducive to carrier separation and transport for polarization enhancement. Herein, three types of CsPb(Br/I)3 NWs with green, orange, red fluorescence (FL) were respectively synthesized and assembled into chiral NWfilms. The right-handed/left-handed chiral NW films constructed by 4+4 layers and 45° inter-angles exhibitshighly symmetric and mirror-like chiral signals. The strongest chiral intensity is more than 3000 medg. CPLsignals with wide colour gamut produce ranging from 480 nm to 800 nm, and tailorable CPL wavelengths aremanipulated by the emission wavelength of perovskite NWs. A giant CPL signal with a maximum glum of up to 10^(-1) is achieved. The polarization imaging of chiral NW films produces brilliant differential circularly polarizedstructural colours, making it more widely used in multilevel anti-counterfeiting systems. A significant break-throughlies in the development of advanced chiral perovskite materials with remarkable glum and tailorable CPLproperties, which sheds new light on optical anti-counterfeiting and intelligent information encryption.展开更多

文摘Carbon dots(CDs)-based composites have shown impressive performance in fields of information encryption and sensing,however,a great challenge is to simultaneously implement multi-mode luminescence and room-temperature phosphorescence(RTP)detection in single system due to the formidable synthesis.Herein,a multifunctional composite of Eu&CDs@p RHO has been designed by co-assembly strategy and prepared via a facile calcination and impregnation treatment.Eu&CDs@p RHO exhibits intense fluorescence(FL)and RTP coming from two individual luminous centers,Eu3+in the free pores and CDs in the interrupted structure of RHO zeolite.Unique four-mode color outputs including pink(Eu^(3+),ex.254 nm),light violet(CDs,ex.365 nm),blue(CDs,254 nm off),and green(CDs,365 nm off)could be realized,on the basis of it,a preliminary application of advanced information encoding has been demonstrated.Given the free pores of matrix and stable RTP in water of confined CDs,a visual RTP detection of Fe^(3+)ions is achieved with the detection limit as low as 9.8μmol/L.This work has opened up a new perspective for the strategic amalgamation of luminous vips with porous zeolite to construct the advanced functional materials.

文摘Perovskites showcased potential promise for innovative circularly polarized luminescence (CPL)-active multi-channelinformation encryption, owing to the exceptional luminescence brightness. It was still a formidablechallenge to fabricate CPL-active perovskites with significant luminescent asymmetry factor (glum) and full-colour-tailorableCPL properties. Indeed, compared to isotropic perovskites, anisotropic perovskite nanowires (NWs)were conducive to carrier separation and transport for polarization enhancement. Herein, three types of CsPb(Br/I)3 NWs with green, orange, red fluorescence (FL) were respectively synthesized and assembled into chiral NWfilms. The right-handed/left-handed chiral NW films constructed by 4+4 layers and 45° inter-angles exhibitshighly symmetric and mirror-like chiral signals. The strongest chiral intensity is more than 3000 medg. CPLsignals with wide colour gamut produce ranging from 480 nm to 800 nm, and tailorable CPL wavelengths aremanipulated by the emission wavelength of perovskite NWs. A giant CPL signal with a maximum glum of up to 10^(-1) is achieved. The polarization imaging of chiral NW films produces brilliant differential circularly polarizedstructural colours, making it more widely used in multilevel anti-counterfeiting systems. A significant break-throughlies in the development of advanced chiral perovskite materials with remarkable glum and tailorable CPLproperties, which sheds new light on optical anti-counterfeiting and intelligent information encryption.

文摘Despite great progress in developing mode-selective light emission technologies based on self-emitting materials,few rewritable displays with modeselective multiple light emissions have been demonstrated.Herein,we present a rewritable triple-mode light-emitting display enabled by stimuli-interactive fluorescence(FL),room-temperature phosphorescence(RTP),and electroluminescence(EL).The display comprises coplanar electrodes separated by a gap,a polymer composite with FL inorganic phosphors(EL/FL layer),and a polymer composite with solvent-responsive RTP additives(RTP layer).Upon 254 nm UV exposure,a dual-mode emission of RTP and FL occurs from the RTP and EL/FL layers,respectively.When a polar liquid,besides water,is applied on the display and an AC field is applied between the coplanar electrodes,EL from the EL/FL layer is triggered,and the display operates in a triple mode.Interestingly,when water is applied to the display,the RTP mode is deactivated,rendering the display to operate in a dual mode of FL and EL.By manipulating the evaporation of the applied polar liquids and water,the mode-selective light emission of FL,RTP,and EL is rewritable in the triple-mode display.Additionally,a high-security full-color information encryption display is demonstrated,wherein the information of digital numbers,letters,and Morse code encoded in one optical mode is only deciphered when properly matched with that encoded in the other two modes.Thus,this article outlines a strategy to fulfill the substantial demand for high-security personalized information based on room-temperature multi-light-emitting displays.

文摘Recently circularly polarized luminescence(CPL)materials have attracted significant interest.Introducing reversible dynamic property to these materials has been a key focus in cutting-edge fields,such as in high-level information encryption.Here,we provided a novel and general strategy involving handednessselective filtration and ground-state chiral self-recovery(CSR)in double film system to address this issue.Based on this strategy,we achieved CPL switch through the reversible modulation of ground-state chirality including absorption and scattering circular dichroism(CD)signals over the full UV-visible wavelength range(365-700 nm)in a single azobenzene polymer(PAzo)film.More importantly,by flexibly changing the type of fluorescent films,it is convenient to achieve general excited-state CSR,that is reversible switching of full-color including ideal white(CIE coordinate(0.33,0.33)),as well as room-temperature phosphorescent CPL.All these CPL signals without almost any intensity decay after three cycles of onand-off switching.Experimental results indicated that the trans-cis isomerization and ordered rearrangement of azobenzene units in PAzo film were the fundamental reasons for realizing CPL switching.Finally,based on this system we achieved dynamic visual encryption and decryption process including multiple decryption methods.This study provides an effective method for constructing a universally applicable chiroptical switch in excited state.

文摘To realize single-stimulus-induced simultaneous multi-behaviors in hydrogels is still quite challenging nowadays.Herein,an intelli gent pH-responsive hydrogel(BP4VA/PAS)with rapid and high contrast changes in color,fluorescence,and shape simultaneously is reported The BP4VA/PAS hydrogel is fabricated by incorporating styryl anthracene derivative(BP4VA)into copolymer networks(PAS)of acrylamide and sodium 4-styrene sulfonate.Under acid conditions,the protonation of BP4VA generates a rapid change with high color contrast from yellow to red and a fluorescence switch between bright green and weak red emission.At the same time,the electrostatic interactions between 2H-BP4VA^(2+)and sulfonate anions suspended on PAS trigger BP4VA/PAS hydrogels to shrink.Upon alkaline treatment,the 2H-BP4VA^(2+)/PAS hydrogel deproto nates and recovers to its original color,fluorescence,and shape.Furthermore,utilizing rapid and remarkable pH-responsive properties o BP4VA/PAS hydrogels,we successfully demonstrated its applications in biomimicry,camouflage,and multistage information encryption.Collec tively,this work provided an elegant strategy to develop intelligent hydrogels in applications of biomimetic smart materials and information en cryption.

文摘The use of orbital angular momentum(OAM)as an independent dimension for information encryption has garnered considerable attention.However,the multiplexing capacity of OAM is limited,and there is a need for additional dimensions to enhance storage capabilities.We propose and implement orbital angular momentum lattice(OAML)multiplexed holography.The vortex lattice(VL)beam comprises three adjustable parameters:the rotation angle of the VL,the angle between the wave normal and the z axis,which determines the VL’s dimensions,and the topological charge.Both the rotation angle and the VL’s dimensions serve as supplementary encrypted dimensions,contributing azimuthally and radially,respectively.We investigate the mode selectivity of OAML and focus on the aforementioned parameters.Through experimental validation,we demonstrate the practical feasibility of OAML multiplexed holography across multiple dimensions.This groundbreaking development reveals new possibilities for the advancement of practical information encryption systems.

文摘Self-healing polyurethane-elastomers are highly desired in various fields.However,there is often a trade-off between mechanical properties and dynamic self-healing due to the mutually exclusive mechanism.Herein,we develop a self-healable and mechanically robust poly(oxime-urethane)elastomer(Zn-DAPU)to circumvent this inherent trade-off by incorporating zincpyridinyl cross-links into the hydrogen bonding and dynamic oxime-urethane supramolecular-covalent hybrid network.Benefiting from the synergistic strengthening of H-bonding and coordinate interactions,Zn-DAPU network performs tunable toughness with metal ion concentration change,which improves 345.2%and reaches 82.2 MJ m^(-3),with robust tensile strength of 22.8 MPa,Young's modulus of 37.1 MPa,and satisfactory elongation of 815.7%.The healing efficiency can be reached at 91.7%with a restored toughness of 75.4 MJ m^(-3)at 80℃for 10 h.Furthermore,zinc-contained networks exhibit photolysis behavior due to the homolytic cleavage of N-O bonds in oxime-urethane moieties,which can be functionalized further with fluorescamine as the specific information encryption coating with quick response codes(QRs)upon polyester fabric.This work provides valuable guidance towards the development of high-performance self-healing polyurethane and wearable functional materials.

文摘Dissipative self-assembly,which exploits energy inputs of chemical fuels to maintain the functional states far from equilibrium,is essential to living systems.Among a variety of fuels,carbon dioxide(CO_(2))gas has yet to be introduced in artificial dissipative materials.Here we describe a CO_(2)-fueled non-equilibrium co-assembly system that couples with a C1 catalytic pathway to dissipate the fuel for function output.Using common frustrated Lewis pair(FLP)as precursors,CO_(2)can dynamically bridge between them to constitute metastable amphiphiles,which not only highly activate CO_(2)but also enable their co-assembly with substrates into a transient fibrillar gel.In turn,the backward pathway is realized by cooperative C1 catalysis of the substrate and activated CO_(2)species in the assembled state.This can boost the depletion of gas fuel and facilitate disassembly to the sol.Moreover,tailoring the intrinsic substrate/FLP chemistries,as well as external cues,to shift the catalytic activity is accessible to regulate the period and lifetime of sol-gel-sol transition over a wide range.Based on the tunability in phase transition on a time scale,we develop time-gated information encryption materials using the transient FLP array loaded gas-encoded substrates,and the correct information can be read only at a specified time window.This study provides inspiration for a new paradigm of fuel for dissipative systems and their intelligent materials applications.

文摘Dynamic fluorescent materials capable of stimulus-responsive emission modulation have emerged as pivotal components in next-generation information security systems.This study presents a novel photoresponsive fluorescent composite system in which spiropyran(SP)was covalently grafted onto naphthalimide-functionalized silica aerogel matrices.These architectures exhibit reversible fluorescence resonance energy transfer between the naphthalimide donors and merocyanine-form of SP acceptors under ultraviolet irradiation,enabling dynamic emission shifting from green(blue)to red.The aggregation-induced emission characteristics of SP were used to engineer a smart material system that can reversibly regulate its distinct red fluorescence by precisely controlling the dispersion of amino groups on naphthalimide-functionalized silica aerogels.This spatial manipulation directly governs the molecular packing state of SP,enabling dynamic fluorescence modulation.A programmable control over the fluorescence chromatic transitions in the composite material was achieved by systematically adjusting the SP grafting densities(1%,2%,and 3%w/w).A unique mode of dynamic information encryption technology was developed by utilizing dynamic fluorescence variations.These materials can substantially enhance information encryption levels due to their precisely adjustable fluorescence properties in response to external stimuli over time.This makes the encryption process even more unpredictable and complex,thereby exponentially increasing the difficulty for unauthorized parties to replicate or decode the encrypted information.

文摘Stimuli responsive phosphors with photoluminescence and thermoresponsive luminescence are intriguing for information encryption applications.Herein,two solvent-mediated,stimuli responsive phosphors based on phosphine-copper(I)iodide complexes 1 and 2 are reported.Complex 1 exhibited temperature-and excitation-wavelength-dependent dual-emission characteristics,displaying high energy(HE)and low energy(LE)bands with the quantum yield(QY)of 38.5%under 365 nm irradiation;but complex 2 exhibited no emission.The LE emission can be attributed to a triplet halide-to-metal charge transfer(^(3)XMCT)and copper-centered 4d→3s,3p transitions,whereas the HE emission originates from a triplet halide-to-ligand charge-transfer(^(3)XLCT).Importantly,in complex 2,the strong C—H∙∙∙Cl interaction in the supramolecular crystal lattice annihilated the sensitive cluster centered(3CC)excited state.Intriguingly,only the HE emission band of complex 2 can be successfully activated by high-energy excitation or changing the temperature.Nevertheless,the QY of complex 2 is 15.6%under 310 nm irradiation,which is smaller than that of complex 1 of 49.8%.This behavior was further confirmed by heating,where both complexes show HE emission.The reversible crystal transformation between complexes 1 and 2 was achieved.Furthermore,the reversible excitation-wavelength-dependent dual-emission and thermoresponsive properties make these phosphors suitable candidates for anti-counterfeiting and information encryption applications.

文摘Optical fibers are typically used in telecommunications services for data transmission,where the use of fiber tags is essential to distinguish between the different transmission fibers or channels and thus ensure the working functionality of the communication system.Traditional physical entity marking methods for fiber labeling are bulky,easily confused,and,most importantly,the label information can be accessed easily by all potential users.This work proposes an encrypted optical fiber tag based on an encoded fiber Bragg grating(FBG)array that is fabricated using a point-by-point femtosecond laser pulse chain inscription method.Gratings with different resonant wavelengths and reflectivities are realized by adjusting the grating period and the refractive index modulations.It is demonstrated that a binary data sequence carried by a fiber tag can be inscribed into the fiber core in the form of an FBG array,and the tag data can be encrypted through appropriate design of the spatial distributions of the FBGs with various reflection wavelengths and reflectivities.The proposed fiber tag technology can be used for applications in port identification,encrypted data storage,and transmission in fiber networks.

文摘Metal-free materials with multicolor tunable circularly polarized luminescence(CPL)are attractive because of their potential applications in information storage and encryption.Here,we designed two enantiomers composed of chiral dialkyl glutamides and achiral vibration-induced emission(VIE)moiety,which can switch on CPL after a simple gelation process.It is noteworthy that the CPL colors vary in different solvents,and this is attributed to various self-assembly-induced microstructures,in which the VIE moiety is restrained to different degrees.Accordingly,a multidimensional code system composed of a quick response code,a ultraviolet(UV)light-activated color code,and a CPL information figure was constructed.To our satisfaction,the system possesses multiple information-storage functions.The orthogonal anticounterfeiting and CPLenhanced encryption functions also improve the system information encryption ability.In brief,this study provides a practical example of CPL applied to information security and an effective approach to obtain a single-component color-tunable CPL material with multiple information storage and encryption functions as well.

文摘Carbon dots(CDs)with aggregation-induced emission(AIE)have sparked significant interest in multidimensional anti-counterfeiting due to their exceptional fluorescence properties.However,the preparation of AIE CDs with multicolor solid-state fluorescence remains a formidable challenge due to its complicated construction.In the present work,a novel class of multicolor AIE CDs(M-CDs)were fabricated using selected precursor(salicylic acid,thiosalicylic acid,and 2,2'-dithiodibenzoic acid),with an eco-friendly,low-cost one-pot solvothermal method.In the dilute organic solution,M-CDs manifested blue emission,but upon aggregation in the presence of water,the red,yellow,green,and blue emissions were displayed due to the AIE effect.Structural analysis,coupled with theoretical calculations,revealed that the increase in the size of sp2 domains would lower the Eg and cause a red-shift emission wavelength.Significantly,the continuous emission of M-CDs from blue to red can be utilized as ink for multimode printing,enabling the creation of a variety of school badges and quick response codes.These findings hold promising implications for multi-information encryption applications.
