Enhanced Photoluminescence in Quantum Dots–Porous Polymer Hybrid Films Fabricated by Microcellular Foaming
摘要: The color conversion efficiency of thin polymeric layers embedding quantum dots (QDs) is limited by their negligible light scattering ability and by the insufficient absorption of the excitation photons. In this study, a route is presented to tackle these optical shortcomings by introducing a tailored network of micropores inside these hybrid films. This is achieved by exploiting the microcellular foaming approach which is rapid, cost effective and only makes use of a green solvent (supercritical carbon dioxide). With an appropriate combination of the applied pressure and temperature during foaming, and by using a proper film thickness, the photoluminescence (PL) intensity is enhanced by a factor of up to 6.6 compared to an equivalent but unfoamed hybrid film made of CdSe/ZnS QDs in a polymethyl methacrylate matrix. Spectroscopic measurements and ray tracing simulations reveal how the porous network assists UV/blue light absorption by the QDs and the subsequent outcoupling of the converted light. The approach improves the PL for various QD concentrations and can be easily scaled up and extended to other polymeric matrices as well as light converting materials.

Single-Stage Formation of Film Polymer Composites in Supercritical Colloid Solutions of Nanoparticles Obtained by Laser Ablation
摘要: A review of earlier studies is presented together with new results on the creation of highly concentrated colloid solutions with nanoparticles of noble metals (gold and silver) in a supercritical carbon dioxide (SC–CO2) medium and the development of a single-stage method for the production of polymer nanocomposites. The effect of the SC–CO2 density on the dynamics of the formation and decomposition of supercritical fluids (SCFs) of silver and gold nanocolloids in the process of pulsed laser ablation and after its termination is studied. The possibility of the formation of colloids from bimetallic nanoparticles was considered. The effective dielectric permittivity of a colloid solution of silver nanoparticles in SC–CO2 is calculated by the numerical modeling of extinction spectra in the dipole approximation at various densities, with consideration for the size of nanoparticles and the degree of their asphericity. The formation of various film nanocomposites based on a porous copolymer polytetrafluoroethylene—vinylidenefluoride with ruby nanoparticles and two modifications of pure porous polytetrafluoroethylene with silver nanoparticles in the same SCF reactor and with a single technological process is considered.

Xanthene Dye-Functionalized Conjugated Porous Polymers as Robust and Reusable Photocatalysts for Controlled Radical Polymerization
摘要: Photoinduced electron/energy transfer?reversible addition?fragmentation chain transfer (PET?RAFT) polymerization represents a versatile and highly e?cient method for polymerizations of wide-ranging monomer variances upon solar energy harvesting. Although signi?cant progress has been achieved, several drawbacks are still associated with existing photocatalysts, such as toxicity of transition metals, high cost, poor stability, and unavoidable puri?cation procedures because of the photobleaching e?ect, to name a few. Herein, 1,4-diethynylbenzene-linked xanthene dye-conjugated porous polymers (CPPs) have been established as potential heterogenous photocatalysts of PET?RAFT polymerization. With this two-dimensional planar architecture, we demonstrate dual-stimuli toggling of RAFT polymerization using two di?erent external physical manipulations: light “ON”/“OFF” and solution pH “LOW”/“HIGH”. In addition, these CPPs endowed radical polymerizations with various impressive features such as compatibility of diverse monomer formulations, unique oxygen tolerance, and ppm-level catalyst dosage. Demonstrations of chain extension and catalyst recycling further highlight the robustness and performance of this CPP catalyst. Through the study of structure?property relationship using the experimental analyses, we envisage that a series of xanthene dye-functionalized CPPs can be developed as visible light-absorbing organocatalysts rivaling transition-metal photocatalysts.

Pyrene-based hyperbranched porous polymers with doped Ir(piq)2(acac) red emitter for highly efficient white polymer light-emitting diodes
摘要: Here, we designed and prepared a series of hyperbranched porous polymers constructed using fluorene branches and pyrene core, and all hyperbranched porous polymers exhibit intense blue fluorescence, good morphological stability, and high thermal stability. Further, it is found that the aperture sizes for hyperbranched porous polymers can be adjusted by simply changing the content of pyrene and fluorene in the synthesis process. When the feed ratios of pyrene in the total polymers is 15 mol%, the optimized aperture size was obtained, which is slightly larger than the maxlength of complementary red emitter Bis(1-phenylisoquinoline)(acetylacetonate) iridium (III) (Ir(piq)2acac), indicating the Ir(piq)2acac can well distributed in the apertures of hyperbranched porous polymers in co-doped film of Ir(piq)2acac and hyperbranched porous polymers. The fabricated polymer-light-emitting diode (PLED) with such co-doped film as light-emitting layer realizes good white emission with almost equal blue and red emission intensity from hyperbranched porous polymers and Ir(piq)2acac. The balanced electroluminescent (EL) spectra contribute to ideal Commission Internationale de l’Eclairage (CIE) coordinate of (0.326, 0.374) located at white light zone. In addition, the device also achieves high device performance with maximum luminance and current efficiency reaching 5369 cd/m2 and 8.35 cd/A, respectively. We believe that such porous-structure polymers have huge potential applications in the development of highly efficient white PLEDs with reducing production cost.

Creation of micropores by RAFT copolymerization of conjugated multi-vinyl cross-linkers
摘要: We report a new methodology that allows for forming micropores in hierarchically porous polymers by employing the reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) copolymerization of conjugated multi-vinyl cross-linkers with styrene. Using divinylbenzene, 4,4’-divinylbiphenyl, 1,3,5-tris(4-vinylphenyl) benzene and tetrakis(4-vinylbiphenyl)methane as cross-linkers, the RAFT copolymerization was carried out in the presence of polylactide macro-chain transfer agents. During the polymerization, microphase separation occurred spontaneously to produce cross-linked block polymer precursors with a bicontinuous morphology composed of polylactide and cross-linked polystyrene microdomains. Hierarchically porous polymers with strong fluorescence were successfully derived by polylactide etching. We demonstrate that the rigid conjugated structure of the cross-linkers with a high cross-linking density is critical for creating the micropores and for stabilizing the mesopores that are templated by the polylactide domain.
