Single-chain semiconducting polymer dots

This work describes the preparation and validation of single-chain semiconducting polymer dots (sPdots), which were generated using a method based on surface immobilization, washing, and cleavage. The sPdots have an ultrasmall size of ∼3.0 nm as determined by atomic force microscopy, a size that is...

Zusammenfassung:This work describes the preparation and validation of single-chain semiconducting polymer dots (sPdots), which were generated using a method based on surface immobilization, washing, and cleavage. The sPdots have an ultrasmall size of ∼3.0 nm as determined by atomic force microscopy, a size that is consistent with the anticipated diameter calculated from the molecular weight of the single-chain semiconducting polymer. sPdots should find use in biology and medicine as a new class of fluorescent probes. The FRET assay this work presents is a simple and rapid test to ensure methods developed for preparing sPdot indeed produced single-chain Pdots as designed
