Scientists from Indiana University and the University of Copenhagen decided the perennial problem of creating super-bright fluorescent dyes. They were able to synthesize molecules, the glow of which does not depend on each other. As a result, the radiation brightness of new materials compared to the traditional has increased dramatically. In the new molecules of dyes in the presence of neighboring particles decrease light intensity.
The range of application of the invention is extraordinarily wide. Is solar panels a new type, new laser systems, as well as an incredible printing capabilities and even interior design. Extremely bright materials open up many new technological possibilities.
At the moment the synthesis of the brightest substances completed. But it remains to deal with some questions of stability of the obtained materials. In any case, the new bright dyes now are superior to all existing analogues in terms of resistance and durability.
