Summary: This work presents a photoactivated organic room-temperature phosphorescence material, which utilizes triplet-to-singlet Forster-resonance energy transfer (TS-FRET) inhibited by visible-light stimulation.

Tailoring Noncovalent Interactions to Activate Persistent Room-Temperature Phosphorescence from Doped Polyacrylonitrile Films

Hongzhuo Wu et al.

Summary: This study presents a rational strategy to activate wide-color ranged and persistent room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) from amorphous films by embedding electron-rich organic phosphors into an electron-deficient matrix polyacrylonitrile (PAN). The ultralong lifetime of 968.1 ms was obtained for the doped film TBB-6OMe@PAN through tailoring noncovalent interactions between the electron-deficient PAN matrix and electron-rich organic phosphors, indicating the activation of persistent RTP may be triggered by strong electrostatic interactions between the two components. Further theoretical calculations demonstrated that both electrostatic and dispersion interactions are responsible for the activation of persistent RTP in the doped films, with the doped film also showing excellent water resistance after 12 weeks.
