Photo‐ and Proton‐Dual‐Responsive Fluorescence Switch Based on a Bisthienylethene‐Bridged Naphthalimide Dimer and Its Application in Security Data Storage

Abstract A photo‐ and proton‐dual‐responsive fluorescence switch based on a bisthienylethene‐naphthalimide dimer was described. Security data storage based on this dual‐responsive fluorescent molecular switch was proposed and demonstrated. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2007)
