Cooperative supramolecular polymers with anthracene‒endoperoxide photo-switching for fluorescent anti-counterfeiting

There is a continual pursuit for different ways to detect counterfeiting in today’s society. Here the authors show photo-responsive supramolecular polymers can be used in fluorescent anti-counterfeit applications, by taking advantage of multicycle anthracene‒endoperoxide switching properties.
