Phosphorescence Energy Transfer: Ambient Afterglow Fluorescence from Water‐Processable and Purely Organic Dyes via Delayed Sensitization

Ambient afterglow luminescence from metal‐free organic chromophores would provide a promising alternative to the well‐explored inorganic phosphors. However, the realization of air‐stable and solution‐processable organic afterglow systems with long‐lived triplet or singlet states remains a formidable challenge. In the present study, a delayed sensitization of the singlet state of organic dyes via phosphorescence energy transfer from organic phosphors is proposed as an alternative strategy to realize “afterglow fluorescence”. This concept is demonstrated with a long‐lived phosphor as the energy donor and commercially available fluorescent dyes as the energy acceptor. Triplet‐to‐singlet Förster‐resonance energy‐transfer (TS‐FRET) between donor and acceptor chromophores, which are co‐organized in an amorphous polymer matrix, results in tuneable yellow and red afterglow from the fluorescent acceptors. Moreover, these afterglow fluorescent hybrids are highly solution‐processable and show excellent air‐stability with good quantum yields.     

The effect of calcium substitution on the afterglow of Eu2+/Dy3+ doped Sr4Al14O25

The effect of calcium substitution on the afterglow of tetrastrontium aluminate phosphors (Sr₄Al₁₄O₂₅:Eu²⁺, Dy³⁺) was investigated. A series of (Sr₁-_xCa_x)O⊎nAl₂O₃:Eu²⁺(1%), Dy³⁺(0.5%), with variation of calcium content (x = 0 − 1), were synthesized by a high temperature solid state reaction in a reducing atmosphere. The photoluminescence, persistent luminescence (afterglow), and lumen equivalents of these materials were studied and compared. It turned out that the afterglow properties of the phosphors were strongly dependent on the Sr/Ca ratio. As the Ca content increased, a phase transition and blue shift in emission spectra were observed.

Efficient metal-free organic room temperature phosphors

An innovative transformation of organic luminescent materials in recent years has realised the exciting research area of ultralong room-temperature phosphorescence. Here the credit for the advancements goes to the rational design of new organic phosphors. The continuous effort in the area has yielded wide varieties of metal-free organic systems capable of extending the lifetime to several seconds under ambient conditions with high quantum yield and attractive afterglow properties. The various strategies adopted in the past decade to manipulate the fate of triplet excitons suggest a bright future for this class of materials. To analyze the underlying processes in detail, we have chosen high performing organic triplet emitters that utilized the best possible ways to achieve a lifetime above one second along with impressive quantum yield and afterglow properties. Such a case study describing different classes of metal-free organic phosphors and strategies adopted for the efficient management of triplet excitons will stimulate the development of better candidates for futuristic applications. This Perspective discusses the phosphorescence features of single- and multi-component crystalline assemblies, host–guest assemblies, polymers, and polymer-based systems under various classes of molecules. The various applications of the organic phosphors, along with future perspectives, are also highlighted.

A summary of the extremely efficient organic phosphors that utilized the best possible ways to manipulate the fate of triplet excitons for achieving a long lifetime along with impressive quantum yield and afterglow properties is provided.     

Enhancement of the photoluminescence and long afterglow properties of Ca<Subscript>2</Subscript>MgSi<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>7</Subscript>:Eu<Superscript>2+</Superscript> phosphor by Dy<Superscript>3+</Superscript> co-doping

The Ca₂MgSi₂O₇:Eu²⁺ and Ca₂MgSi₂O₇:Eu²⁺, Dy³⁺ long afterglow phosphors were synthesized under a weak reducing atmosphere by the traditional high temperature solid state reaction method. The synthesized phosphors were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) techniques. The luminescence properties were investigated using thermoluminescence (TL), photoluminescence (PL), long afterglow, mechanoluminescence (ML), and ML spectra techniques. The crystal structure of sintered phosphors was an akermanite type structure, which belongs to the tetragonal crystallography. TL properties of these phosphors were investigated, and the results were also compared. Under the ultraviolet excitation, the emission spectra of both prepared phosphors were composed of a broad band peaking at 535 nm, belonging to the broad emission band. When the Ca₂MgSi₂O₇:Eu²⁺ phosphor is co-doped with Dy³⁺, the PL, afterglow and ML intensity is strongly enhanced. The decay graph indicates that both the sintered phosphors contain fast decay and slow decay process. The ML intensities of Ca₂MgSi₂O₇:Eu²⁺ and Ca₂MgSi₂O₇:Eu²⁺, Dy³⁺ phosphors were proportionally increased with the increase of impact velocity, which suggests that this phosphor can be used as sensors to detect the stress of an object.

Improved water resistance of SrAl2O4: Eu2+, Dy3+ phosphor directly achieved in a water-containing medium

In this paper, a heterogeneous precipitation method utilizing urea hydrolysis was adopted to coat a SiO₂ layer on the surface of SrAl₂O₄:Eu²⁺, Dy³⁺ long persistence phosphors. To avoid phosphor hydrolysis in a water-containing coating medium, the hydrolysis and polymerization reactions of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) were concerned and carried out. The crystal phases, surface morphologies, hydrolysis stability and water resistance on afterglow properties of coated phosphors were investigated. Scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrum analysis, transmission electron microscope and Fourier transform infrared spectrum results confirmed that a continuous, uniform and compact SiO₂ coating layer was successfully obtained on the phosphors surface. A theoretical coating amount of 5% or higher was found to be good for hydrolysis stability. Photoluminescence results revealed the coated phosphors showed much better water resistance on afterglow properties than the uncoated phosphor. We also discussed and proposed the hydrolysis restriction mechanism of SrAl₂O₄:Eu²⁺, Dy³⁺ in the water-containing coating medium.
