Abstract

Multimodal imaging is a powerful and versatile approach that integrates and correlates multiple optical modalities within a single device. This concept has gained considerable attention due to its potential applications ranging from sensing to medicine. Herein, we develop several wireless multimodal light-emitting chemical systems by coupling two light sources based on different physical principles: electrochemiluminescence (ECL) occurring at the electrode interface and a light-emitting diode (LED) switched on by an electrochemically triggered electron flow. Endogenous (thermodynamically spontaneous redox process) and exogenous (requiring an external power source) bipolar electrochemistry acts as a driving force to trigger both light emissions at different wavelengths. The results presented here interconnect optical imaging and electrochemical reactions, providing a novel and so far unexplored alternative to design autonomous hybrid systems with multimodal and multicolor optical readouts for complex bio-chemical systems.
