Abstract:The electrochemiluminescence (ECL) effectiveness of the tris-(bipyridine) ruthenium(II) (Ru(bpy) 3 2+ ) system is hampered by aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) in optoelectronic systems as a result of π−π accumulation of the aromatic ring structure. In this work, a negatively charged tetraphenylvinyl molecule (TPE-2SO 3 Na, TPE-4SO 3 Na) was synthesized to modify the electrode interface, and the π−π accumulation between Ru(bpy) 3 2+ molecules was transformed into the π−π interaction between Ru(bpy) 3 2+ and T… Show more
