By employing a colloid chemical reaction method we demonstrate the preparation of organic nanoparticles composed of perylene molecules (PeNPs) based on the reduction of perylene perchlorate by Br- anions in the presence of cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTA(+)Br(-)) in acetonitrile. A discrete nucleation event, followed by a slower controlled growth on the existing particles, is identified during formation of PeNPs. By changing the growth parameters, such as the monomer concentration and the method of injection, quasi-spherical PeNPs with controllable sizes from 25 to 90 nm could be obtained. The homogeneous solution phase of this method makes it capable of large-scale synthesis of PeNPs with a size distribution (<10%) that is improved by formation of a protective layer of CTA(+) around the PeNPs. The three-dimensional, hierarchical self-organization of 25-nm PeNPs building blocks is observed to form nanobelts and square nanorods, possibly templated by the CTA(+) lamellar micelle structures in acetonitrile. Spectroscopic results reveal two kinds of trends in the development of the optical properties of perylene as they evolve from the molecular to the bulk phase in the nanometer range. The so-called size dependence is evidenced by a switch from Y-type to E-type excimers as the size of the PeNPs increased from 25 to 90 nm. As the 25-nm PeNPs organize into nanobelts or square nanorods the oscillator strength of the Y-type excimers is relatively enhanced. That is, collective phenomena develop as the proximal particles interact in the glassy solids. Our very recent results indicate that this colloid chemical reaction method can also be applied to other organic compounds.
