Intrinsically fluorescent nanoparticles with excellent stability based on a highly crosslinked organic-inorganic hybrid polyphosphazene material

A series of intrinsically fluorescent particles were synthesized, including nanoparticles with independently tunable diameters, nanotubes and microspheres, based on a highly crosslinked organic-inorganic hybrid polyphosphazene material. The nanoparticles exhibit high fluorescent intensity and excellent thermal and photobleaching stability, and can be well dispersed in both aqueous and organic media.
