Facile creation of FRET systems from a pH-responsive AIE fluorescent vesicle†
Abstract
We demonstrate a facile approach to constructing aggregation induced emission (AIE) fluorescent vesicles assembled using a PEG–POSS–(TPE)7 polymer. The narrow wall thickness provides an ideal confined space for creating fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) systems between TPE donors and encapsulated FITC or DOX acceptors.
