However, research on the synthesis of multicolor solid-state fluorescence(SSF) CDs(from blue to red) is rarely reported. Herein, we used o-phenylenediamine, mphenylenediamine and p-phenylenediamine with dithiosalicylic acid(DTSA) in the solvothermal reaction using acetic acid as a solvent to obtain aggregation-induced emissive(AIE) CDs of red(620 nm), green(520 nm), and blue(478 nm), respectively. XPS spectra and TEM image show that with the red-shift of luminescence, the particle size and content of C=O of the CDs gradually increases. Finally, based on the non-matrix solid-state multicolor luminescence characteristics of CDs, the application of white light LED devices is realized. Besides, based on the fat-soluble properties of CDs, fingerprint detection applications are realized.展开更多
