Incorporation of an Emissive Cu4I4 Core into Cross-Linked Networks: An Effective Strategy for Luminescent Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Coatings.

Abstract

Here, an effective strategy for the preparation of luminescent organic-inorganic hybrid coatings (OIHCs) by the incorporation of an emissive Cu4I4 core into cross-linked coating networks through coordination bonds is reported. The luminescent coatings obtained show potential application in a variety of areas, and such a synthetic strategy of the incorporation of an emissive inorganic core into extended networks has proven to be an efficient method for the synthesis of luminescent OIHCs.
