Fluorescent merocyanines: from fundamental properties to applications as molecular probes, in bioimaging and as emissive dye aggregates
{{output}}
Among donor-acceptor dyes, merocyanines (MCs) stand out as their absorption and emission wavelengths can be tuned over a wide visible and near-infrared (NIR) spectral range by proper choice of donor and acceptor end groups and length of the polymethine chain. ... ...
