a Schematic representation of the emission properties of AuPz in solution and the solid state, and upon uptake by (CHA)n in water through (i) grinding, (ii) water addition, (iii) centrifugation, and (iv) filtration. b UV–visible spectra (H2O, room temperature, 1.0 mM based on the amphiphiles) of (CHA)n•(AuPz)m, (CHA)n, and AuPz in CHCl3 (0.1 mM). c DLS chart of (CHA)n•(AuPz)m and d optimized structure of (CHA)22•(AuPz)12 (white: hydrogen; gray, orange, and scarlet: carbon, red: oxygen, blue: nitrogen, yellow: gold). e Emission spectra (room temperature, λex = 290 nm) and photographs (λex = 254 nm) of (CHA)n•(AuPz)m in H2O, and AuPz in CHCl3 (0.1 mM) and the solid state. f CIE coordinate diagram (H2O, room temperature) of (CHA)n•(AuPz)m, (CHA)n•(AuPz′)m, AuPz, and AuPz′. g Emission decay profile (H2O, room temperature, λex = 280 nm, λdet = 700 nm) of (CHA)n•(AuPz)m.
