Abstract
For the synthesis of monodisperse submicron particles (in which a luminophore is covalently bound to the polymer matrix), methods of emulsifier-free emulsion and seeded copolymerizations are applied to introduce the luminophore-containing monomer into the bulk or shell of the particles, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy and optical spectroscopy (reflection and luminescence spectra) showed that the particles obtained by the first method are better able to self-assemble into 3D-ordered thin-film structures displaying photonic crystalline properties.
