A series of D-π-A-π-D type of near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent compounds based on benzobis(thiadiazole) and its selenium analogues were synthesized and fully characterized by 1 H and 13 C NMR, highresolution mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. The absorption, fluorescence, and electrochemical properties were also studied. Photoluminescence of these chromophores ranges from 900 to 1600 nm and their band gaps are between 1.19 and 0.56 eV. Replacing the sulfur by selenium can lead to a red shift for emission and reduce the band gaps further. Interestingly, compound 1 exhibits aggregationinduced emission enhancement effect in the solid state. All-organic light-emitting diodes based on M1 and M2 were made and exclusive NIR emissions above 1 µm with external quantum efficiency of 0.05% and maximum radiance of 60 mW Sr -1 m -2 were observed. The longest electroluminescence wavelength reaches 1115 nm.
We propose a multi-mode surface plasmon resonance absorber based on dart-type single-layer graphene, it has advantages of polarization independence, tunability and high sensitivity. Four modes of polarization-independent perfect absorption are achieved at 3000–5000 nm.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
