Electrospun aggregation-induced emission active POSS-based porous copolymer films for detection of explosives

Electrospun aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-active polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS)-based copolymer films exhibit an approximately 9-fold increase in response to explosive vapors compared to dense films although porous copolymer films have a thickness as high as 560 +/- 60 nm.
