Supramolecular Terbium‐Threonine Chiral Emitters with Tunable Circularly Polarized Luminescence as Anticounterfeiting‐Ink for Autonomous Data Encryption

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A one‐pot, aqueous, and scalable method for synthesizing chiral lanthanide supramolecular emitters using terbium and threonine is reported. The aqueous solution of these chiral emitters displays the following features: (i) 100 % transparency, (ii) tunable luminescence and CPL, and (iii) a pH feedback loop that controls the “on‐off” states of ...
