The endohedral fullerene Y N@C exhibits luminescence with reasonable quantum yield and extraordinary long lifetime. By variable-temperature steady-state and time-resolved luminescence spectroscopy, it is demonstrated that above 60 K the Y N@C exhibits thermally activated delayed fluorescence with maximum emission at 120 K and a negligible prompt fluorescence. Below 60 K, a phosphorescence with a lifetime of 192±1 ms is observed. Spin distribution and dynamics in the triplet excited state is investigated with X- and W-band EPR and ENDOR spectroscopies and DFT computations. Finally, electroluminescence of the Y N@C /PFO film is demonstrated opening the possibility for red-emitting fullerene-based organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs).
笼内富勒烯 Y N@C 表现出具有合理量子产率和非凡长寿命的发光。通过变温稳态和时间分辨荧光光谱学,证明在 60 K 以上,Y N@C 表现出热活化延迟荧光,最大发射在 120 K,几乎没有瞬时荧光。在 60 K 以下,观察到寿命为 192±1 ms 的磷光。通过 X 波段和 W 波段电子顺磁共振(EPR)和电子-核双共振(ENDOR)光谱学和密度泛函理论(DFT)计算研究了三重激发态中的自旋分布和动力学。最后,展示了 Y N@C /PFO 薄膜的电致发光,为基于富勒烯的红色有机发光二极管(OLED)的发光开辟了可能性。
