	abstract = {<p>Selective detection of explosives, especially TNT, is a highly desirable area of research and various explosives detection devices including fluorescent sensors are already in place. However, multi-mode sensors will be more useful and reliable than conventional fluorescent {\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}Turn Off{\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} sensors. One of the challenges is the development of selective sensors to prevent illegal transport of commonly used explosive TNT through on-the-spot analysis. In this context, we report a fluorescent polymer-based selective detection of TNT using both fluorometric and colorimetric signals. In addition, colorimetric differentiation of TNT from other nitroaromatic compounds is made possible by complexing with various amines. Even though many other sensors are available for TNT, the current demonstration is unique in terms of selectivity, sensitivity, reliability, portability, and rapidity of results. The as-developed explosive detection kit can be useful in both civilian and military operations to trace the illegal transport of TNT as well as for post-explosion analysis.</p>

	The synthetic feasibility and excellent luminescence features of organic molecules attracted much attention and were eventually found useful in lighting applications. In this context, a solvent-free organic liquid having attractive thermally activated delayed fluorescence features in bulk along with high processability has prime importance. Herein, we report a series of naphthalene monoimide-based solvent-free organic liquids exhibiting cyan to red thermally activated delayed fluorescence with luminescence quantum yields up to 80\% and lifetimes between 10 to 45 mu s. An effective approach explored energy transfer between liquid donors with various emitters exhibiting tunable emission colors, including white. The high processability of liquid emitters improved the compatibility with polylactic acid and was used for developing multicolor emissive objects using 3D printing. Our demonstration of the thermally activated delayed fluorescence liquid will be much appreciated as a processable alternate emissive material suitable for large-area lighting, display, and related applications.</p>
