Forgery-proof: A novel AIE molecule 1 is designed with high-contrasted and multi-state mechanochromic and photochromic properties. Based on these properties, 1 shows great potential for application in advanced multidimensional anti-counterfeiting, which was demonstrated by fabrication of a model banknote.
Abstract
Herein the novel tetraphenylethylene (TPE) derivative 1 was designed with an integration of aggregation-induced emission (AIE), multi-state mechanochromism and self-recovery photochromism. The molecule was susceptible to grinding, heating and vapor fuming and showed corresponding transition of its emission colors. The heated powder or single crystal of 1 exhibited reversible photochromism. After a short period of UV irradiation, it showed a bright red color, but recovered to its original white appearance within 1 min. The photochromism is due to the formation of photocyclization intermediates upon UV irradiation, while the eversible mechanochromism is attributed to the weak molecular interactions derived from head-to-tail stacking of the molecules. This reversible multi-state, high-contrasted and rapid responsive mechanochromic and photochromic property cooperatively provide double enhancement of a multimode guarantee in advanced anti-counterfeiting.
