摘要
Traditional multicolor fluorescent hydrogels are generated through the assembly of discrete fluorescent hydrogels,which is not a complete integration much distinct from living organisms.On the basis of aggregation-induced emission(AIE),a special solvent polar-responsive AIE molecule possessing a twisted intramolecular charge transfer(TICT)effect was noticed.By incorporating it into the gel network,an AIE gel that displays continuous gradient fluorescence was fabricated.First,hydrogel A containing the solvent polar-responsive AIE-gen was prepared to show orange fluorescence.After soaking in the organic solvents,the fluorescence color transition of hydrogel A ranging from orange to green occurred when being immersed in high-polarity organic solvents ascribed to the embedded AIE-gen owning TICT effect.Then,hydrogel A was successively lifted up from organic solvents.Due to the different immersion time of each section for the hydrogel,the polarity difference occurred.Then,the produced gel B showed continuous gradient fluorescence ranging from orange to green under the irradiation of UV light.
