It was found that the nanotubes from DNP with an asymmetric carbon atom presented the same chirality as the solution with slight red shift of the CD signals upon the formation of the nanotubes, while no well-defined chirality could be identified for the nanotubes from BNDE with the conformational asymmetry.展开更多

The luminescence quantum efficiency of TPP nanocrystals increases from 24.2% for the nanocrystals with an average size of 300 nm to 34.6% for those with an average size of 20 nm. Surface capping by polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) will improve the quantum efficiency of TPP nanocrystals. The size-dependence and capping-induced variation of the luminescence quantum efficiency was elucidated in viewpoint of aggregation quenching and the equilibrium between the TPP monomers and the aggregates in TPP nanocrystals.展开更多
