Abstract
Abstract Top-down methods produce nanographenes with many carboxy groups on their edges. These functional groups can be utilized for developing multichromophoric systems. As proof of concept, pyrene is installed on the edges by Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. The lack of monomer emissions from the functionalized nanographenes indicates that the neighboring chromophores are sufficiently distant to form the excimer. The pyrene-installed nanographene emits bluish-white-light. Its lipophilic nature allows fabricating a nanographene-dispersed polymethyl methacrylate film emitting visible light.
