Twisted perylene dyes enable highly fluorescent and photostable nanoparticles.
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.
