RESUMO
Herein, we combine the ideas of concerted emission from fluorophore ensembles and its further amplification through FRET in an organic-inorganic hybrid approach. Spherical and highly fluorescent organic nanoparticles (FONPs, Φf =0.38), prepared by the self-assembly of oligo(phenylene ethynylene) (OPE) molecules, were selected as a potential donor material. This organic core was then decorated with a shell of fluorescent CdSe/ZnS core-shell quantum dots (QDs;
