Article Abstract
The development of new polymer-based room-temperature phosphorescence materials is of great significance. By a special molecule design and a set of feasible property-enhancing strategies, coumarin derivatives (CMDs, M-M) were doped into polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyacrylamide (PAM), corn starch, and polyacrylonitrile (PAN) as information anti-counterfeiting. CMDs-doped PVA and CMDs-doped corn starch films showed long-lived phosphorescence emissions up to 1246 ms (M-PVA) and 697 ms (M-corn starch), reaching over 10 s afterglow under naked eye observation under ambient conditions. Significantly, CMDs-doped PAM films can display long-lived phosphorescence emissions in a wide temperature range (100-430 K). For example, the M-PAM film has a phosphorescence lifetime of 16 ms at 430 K. The use of PAM with the strong polarity and rigidity has expanded the temperature range of long-life polymer-based phosphorescent materials. The present long-lived phosphorescent systems provide the possibility for developing new polymer-based organic afterglow materials with robust phosphorescence.

Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) involving spin conversion from the triplet to the singlet state, commonly referred to as triplet-to-singlet FRET (TS-FRET) or phosphorescence energy transfer, has recently emerged as an active area of research in purely organic systems, driven by the development of efficient organic phosphors. This mechanism enables delayed fluorescence with several advantages, including long-lived emission, high quantum yields, large Stokes shifts, and tunable emission profiles, all achieved without the need for complex molecular design strategies. While the growing number of TS-FRET scaffolds has expanded the chemical space of such systems, further progress in this field depends on redirecting the focus toward their practical applications and long-term potential, akin to the well-established singlet-to-singlet FRET systems.

Cellulose-based organic afterglow materials have gained considerable interest due to their low toxicity, cost-effectiveness, and environmental benefits compared to traditional phosphors, with promising applications in anti-counterfeiting, bioimaging, and sensing. Although extensive research has been conducted on cellulose and organic afterglow materials, a comprehensive review systematically discussing the underlying mechanisms and applications of cellulose-based organic afterglow systems remains scarce. This review provides an in-depth analysis of the origin of long-lived afterglow emission in cellulose-based materials, highlighting the critical roles of intramolecular and intermolecular interactions, and proposes strategic design principles for optimizing performance.

Amorphous organic polymers with long-lived room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) characteristics offer intriguing possibilities to advance information security, biological imaging, optoelectronic devices, and intelligent sensors. Despite the recent advances, access to phosphorescent polymers with excellent stretchability and shape memory performance remains a challenge. Herein, nanostructured RTP block copolymers biomimicking mussel cuticles were achieved by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP).

Ultralong organic afterglow materials are being actively explored as attractive candidates for a wide range of applications such as data storage, security inks, emergency lighting, etc., due to their unique long-lived excited state properties and inherent advantages of low cost, appreciable functionality and ease of preparation. In the last three years, much effort has been devoted to achieving efficient ultralong afterglow from organic small molecules, which possess controllable intermolecular interactions and defined energy levels, making them a good platform to suppress the non-radiative decays, hence stabilizing the excitons for efficient afterglow emissions at room temperature.

Here, we report a simple solvent-free strategy for preparing blue-green room-temperature phosphorescent carbon dot-based composites by heat treating terephthalic acid (TPA) and boric acid (BA) at 250 °C. The designed composites (CDs@BO) exhibit an ultralong lifetime of 1.768 s, lasting over 25 s to the naked eye, concurrently with a photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of 33.
