Abstract
The paper describes a kind of truly full-color photoluminescence (PL) CDs. The CDs were prepared by using one-pot hydrothermally heating citric acid and formamide at 200 °C for 2 h. The CDs have three fluorescent centers at blue, green, and red light region. Their color was regulated through two means, including changing excitation wavelengths or CDs concentrations. The emission maxima changed from blue to red with the increase of excitation wavelengths or CDs concentrations. The full-color PL behavior of the CDs was inherited and conserved in the solid polymer matrix, giving multicolor CDs/polymer films and light emitting diodes (LEDs). White-light LED (WLED) with the CIE coordinate approaching to (0.31, 0.32) were also achieved.
