Abstract

A series of luminogens with both aggregation-induced emission and delayed fluorescence features are synthesized and characterized. Biocompatible fluorescent nanoparticles are fabricated by encapsulating them within a bovine serum albumin matrix, and perform well in fluorescence imaging and fluorescence lifetime imaging of living cells.
