Abstract

A fully conjugated 2D fluorescent film containing a tetraphenylethene (TPE) unit is constructed by Glaser-Hay coupling reaction on the surface of copper foil. A large-area, freestanding fluorescent films with an average thickness 4.5 nm can be obtained through the strategy of solid-liquid interfacial synthesis. The film and the pore structure are characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). High-resulution TEM and selected area electron diffraction (SAED) further confirm the dual pores structure with triangular- and hexagonal-shaped pores. The as-prepared 2D films exhibit excellent solid-state fluorescence emission arising from the confinement of TPE units.
