A robust single-molecule light-emitting diode (SM-LED) with high color purity, linear polarization, and efficiency tunability is prepared by covalently integrating one fluorescent molecule into nanogapped graphene electrodes. Furthermore, single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer from the electroluminescent center to different accepters is achieved through rational molecular engineering, enabling construction of a multicolor SM-LED. All these characterizations are accomplished in the photoelectrical integration system with high temporal/spatial/energy resolution, demonstrating the capability of the single-photon emission of SM-LEDs. The success in developing high-performance SM-LEDs inspires the development of the next generation of commercial display devices and promises a single-photon emitter for use in quantum computation and quantum communication.
通过将一个荧光分子共价集成到纳米间隙的石墨烯电极中，制备出了一种具有高色纯度、线性偏振和可调谐效率的稳健的单分子发光二极管（SM-LED）。此外，通过合理的分子工程实现了从电致发光中心到不同受体的单分子Förster 共振能量转移，从而构建了多色 SM-LED。所有这些特性都是在具有高时间/空间/能量分辨率的光电集成系统中完成的，证明了 SM-LED 单光子发射的能力。在开发高性能 SM-LED 方面的成功为下一代商业显示设备的发展提供了灵感，并为量子计算和量子通信中的单光子发射器铺平了道路。
