Continuous Condensed Triplet Accumulation for Irradiance-Induced Anticounterfeit Afterglow.

ABSTRACT: Afterglow room-temperature emission that is independent of autofluorescence after ceasing excitation is a promising technology for state-of-the-art bioimaging and security devices. However, the low brightness of the afterglow emission is a current limitation for using such materials in a variety of applications. Herein, the continuous formation of condensed triplet excitons for brighter afterglow room-temperature phosphorescence is reported. (S)-(-)-2,2'-Bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl ((S)-BINAP) incorporated in a crystalline host lattice showed bright green afterglow room-temperature phosphorescence under strong excitation. The small triplet-triplet absorption cross-section of (S)-BINAP in the whole range of visible wavelengths greatly suppressed the deactivation caused by Förster
