title: Twisted perylene dyes enable highly fluorescent and photostable nanoparticles.
abstract: Polymeric fluorescent nanoparticles with covalently embedded perylene fluorophores were developed by facile synthesis strategy and their advanced features of extremely high fluorescence intensity, non-photoblinking and excellent photostability were experimentally confirmed at the single nanoparticle level.
