Fig. 5. Pattern printing using SCP as the ink.

Fig. 5

a, b Schematic illustration of the pattern printing process. Light triggered QR code with visible/invisible transformation behavior was achieved by using supramolecular coordination polyelectrolyte (SCP) as the smart ink. cf Digital photos of SCP-based luminescent QR code on commercial blue PET film (size: 5 × 5 cm) upon alternating UV (300 nm, 60 s) and visible light (>450 nm, 120 s) irradiation. c, d Photos under daylight. e, f Photos under 254 nm UV lamp. [Eu3+] = 1.4 × 10−4 M, [L] = [OF-1] = 2.1 × 10−4 M in the SCP ink.
