Aromatic Hydrocarbon Based and Space Interactions Induced Color‐tunable Single‐component Organic Phosphorescence

Abstract

AbstractConstruction of new system and exploration of new approach are of great importance for the improvement of their photophysical properties to meet the growing various uses of phosphorescent materials. Triphenylmethane (TPM), composed only of carbon and hydrogen, exhibits excellent color tunable phosphorescence in air, with ultralong lifetime (836 ms), and wide color‐tunable range (from cyan to green, then to yellow and finally to orange, 525 nm–616 nm). Through careful comparison with the single crystal diffraction structure of tetraphenylmethane (TTPM) and theoretical calculation analysis, we believe that various clusters formed through space interactions are crucial for color‐tunable phosphorescence.
