Abstract

Novel yellow and blue emissive dyes have been synthesized using 2,5-diamino-3,6-dicyanopyrazine and various alkoxysilanes and they are covalently bridged to cycloaliphatic epoxy functional oligosiloxane via non-hydrolytic sol–gel reaction. Dye-bridged hybrid materials (DBH) are fabricated by thermal curing the dye-bridged oligosiloxane. Structure and formation of dyes and siloxane network is studied using analysis method. Four components of red, yellow, green and blue emitting DBH cover entire visible range and white luminescence with high color rendering index is realized by controlling their combinations. We have ensured superior thermal stability DBH at 120 °C for 200 h caused by covalently bridged structure and robust siloxane matrix.
