High-contrast(>60) reversible fluorescence switching was achieved in the 1 D nanowires, solid of BTE-CNPH and also in a polymethyl methacrylate(PMMA) film loaded with 1% BTE-CNPH under the alternative irradiation by 365 nm and visible light. Interestingly, the nanowire-like assembly morphology of BTE-CNPH in aqueous tetrahydrofuran(THF) solution of specific concentration was observed to translate into amorphous pieces gradually upon prolonged irradiation by the 365 nm, accompanying with photo-tunable AIE emission.展开更多
