Novel luminescent hybrid materials by covalently anchoring 2-[3-(triethoxysilyl) propyl-1H-Benz [de]isoquinoline-1, 3(2H)-dione to bimodal mesoporous materials

▶ The novel luminescent hybrid bimodal mesoporous silicas with 1, 8-Naphthalic anhydride were synthesized through postsynthesis methods. ▶ The blue-shift phenomenon of the maximum emission wavelength was due to the interactions between the silica matrix and fluorophore groups. ▶ The amounts of loaded fluorescence molecules inside mesoporous channels have some influence on the luminous performances.
