Highly stable color-tunable organic long-persistent luminescence from a single-component exciplex copolymer for in vitro antibacterial.

ABSTRACT: Developing exciplex-based organic long-persistent luminescence (OLPL) materials with high stability is very important but remains a formidable challenge in a single-component system. Here, we report a facile strategy to achieve highly stable OLPL in an amorphous exciplex copolymer system via through-space charge transfer (TSCT). The copolymer composed of electron donor and acceptor units can not only exhibit effective TSCT for intra/intermolecular exciplex emission but also construct a rigid environment to isolate oxygen and suppress non-radiative decay, thereby enabling stable exciplex-based OLPL emission with color-tunable feature for more than 100 h under ambient conditions. These single-component OLPL copolymers demonstrate robust antibacterial activity against Escherichia co
