Abstract

We report herein a facile approach of fabricating fluorescent supraballs from CdTe nanocrystals (NCs)-loaded acrylosilane microemulsion by a simple microfluidic strategy. Initially, core–shell acrylosilane microemulsion with poly(methylmethacrylate-co-butylacrylate-co-vinyltri(isopropoxy)silane) (poly (MMA-co-BA-co-VPS)) as the core and poly(methylmethacrylate-co-butylacrylate-co-vinyltri(isopropoxy)silane-co-acrylamide) (poly(MMA-co-BA-co-VPS-co-AM)) as the shell were synthesized by differential microemulsion polymerization. Subsequently, CdTe NCs were assembled with these acrylosilane microemulsion particles in the presence of N′-(ethylcarbonimidoyl)-N, N-dimethylpropane-1, 3-diaminemonohydrochloride. Eventually, we fabricated uniformly distributed fluorescent supraballs using the as-prepared CdTe-loaded acrylosilane microemulsion as the discontinuous phase, and methylsilicone oil as the continuous phase by means of a microfluidic device. These fluorescent supraballs display unique colors and favorable fluorescence, which might be useful in optoelectronic applications, such as fluorescent switches, light-emitting diode displays, and illuminations.
