Pyrrolopyrrole cyanine dye doping liquid crystals with thermal sensing and polarized near-infrared luminescent properties
Near-infrared (NIR) luminescent liquid crystals (LLCs) have garnered great academic interest because of their potential applications in liquid-crystal displays, thermal sensing, and smart devices. However, the development of NIR LLCs is currently limited by the scarcity of NIR dyes with adequate compatibility with liquid crystals and high luminous efficiency. Pyrrolopyrrole cyanine (PPCy) is a class of dye with good photostability and high fluorescence quantum yield in the NIR spectral region, but has not used for LLCs. In this study, we designed and synthesized two novel PPCy compounds with high solubility and luminous efficiency, namely PDPB and PDPBF, and prepared efficient and stable NIR LLCs by incorporating PDPBF into commercially available liquid crystals (8OCB and E7). The LC mixture PDPBF-8OCB shows both high quantum yield (QY) of 49.8 % and high dichroic ratio (N) of 4.11 by rubbing alignment in its nematic LC phase. This study presents a feasible method for obtaining stable NIR LLCs, addressing the challenges of efficiency, stability and compatibility of NIR LLCs.
期刊介绍:
Dyes and Pigments covers the scientific and technical aspects of the chemistry and physics of dyes, pigments and their intermediates. Emphasis is placed on the properties of the colouring matters themselves rather than on their applications or the system in which they may be applied.
Thus the journal accepts research and review papers on the synthesis of dyes, pigments and intermediates, their physical or chemical properties, e.g. spectroscopic, surface, solution or solid state characteristics, the physical aspects of their preparation, e.g. precipitation, nucleation and growth, crystal formation, liquid crystalline characteristics, their photochemical, ecological or biological properties and the relationship between colour and chemical constitution. However, papers are considered which deal with the more fundamental aspects of colourant application and of the interactions of colourants with substrates or media.
The journal will interest a wide variety of workers in a range of disciplines whose work involves dyes, pigments and their intermediates, and provides a platform for investigators with common interests but diverse fields of activity such as cosmetics, reprographics, dye and pigment synthesis, medical research, polymers, etc.
