Color-tunable persistent luminescence in 1D zinc-organic halide microcrystals for single-component white light and temperature-gating optical waveguides.

ABSTRACT: Information security of photonic communications has become an important societal issue and can be greatly improved when photonic signals are propagated through active waveguides with tunable wavelengths in different time and space domains. Moreover, the development of active waveguides that can work efficiently at extreme temperatures is highly desirable but remains a challenge. Herein, we report new types of low-dimensional Zn(ii)-organic halide microcrystals with fluorescence and room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) dual emission for use as 1D color-tunable active waveguides. Benefiting from strong intermolecular interactions (i.e., hydrogen bonds and π-π interactions), these robust waveguide systems exhibit colorful photonic signals and structural stability at a wide range of e
