High-efficiency narrowband emission is always in the central role of organic optoelectronic display applications. However, the development of organic afterglow materials with sufficient color purity and high quantum efficiency for hyperafterglow is still great challenging due to the large structural relaxation and severe non-radiative decay of triplet excitons. Here we demonstrate a simple yet efficient strategy to achieve hyperafterglow emission through sensitizing and stabilizing isolated fluorescence chromophores by integrating multi-resonance fluorescence chromophores into afterglow host in a single-component copolymer. Bright multicolor hyperafterglow with maximum photoluminescent efficiencies of 88.9%, minimum full-width at half-maximums (FWHMs) of 38 nm and ultralong lifetimes of 1.64 s under ambient conditions are achieved. With this facilely designed polymer, a large-area hyperafterglow display panel was fabricated. By virtue of narrow emission band and high luminescent efficiency, the hyperafterglow presents a significant technological advance in developing highly efficient organic afterglow materials and extends the domain to new applications.
高效窄带发射始终在有机光电显示应用中处于核心地位。然而,由于三重态激子的结构弛豫大且非辐射衰减严重,开发具有足够色纯度和高光量子效率的超余晖材料仍然极具挑战性。在这里,我们通过将多共振荧光发色团整合到单一组分共聚物中的余晖主体中,来敏化和稳定孤立的荧光发色团,从而展示了一种简单而有效的实现超余晖发射的策略。在环境条件下,实现了最大光致发光效率为 88.9%、最小半峰全宽(FWHM)为 38nm 和超长寿命为 1.64s 的明亮多色彩超余晖。通过这种简单设计的聚合物,制造了一个大面积的超余晖显示面板。由于发射带窄且发光效率高,超余晖在开发高效有机余晖材料方面取得了重大技术进步,并将其应用领域扩展到了新的应用领域。
