“…23,25,26,31 It is known that NIR CL can be generated from gas-phase reactions, 32 oxidation of ammonia, 33 singlet oxygen 34,35 and NIR fluorescent dyes by energy transfer in the peroxyoxalate reaction. 36,37 However, due to the lack of highly efficient NIR fluorescent dyes, CL generated from the peroxyoxalate-dye system still lies in the spectral region outside of the desirable biological (900-1200 nm) and telecommunication (1300-1600 nm) windows. 25,26,36,38 Herein we report, for the first time, NIR CL tunable from 900 nm to 1700 nm using narrow-bandgap compounds and polymers.…”
