Color-tunable organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have great potential for use in information security, smart lighting, and wearable healthcare. However, the performance of color-tunable OLEDs is currently far from meeting practical requirements. Here we present high-performance color-tunable OLEDs based on a novel, to the best of our knowledge, exciplex-forming co-host. The exciplex-forming co-host consists of the donor FSF4A and the acceptor B3PYMPM. High-performance color-tunable OLEDs have been demonstrated by combining an orange-doped emitting layer (EML) with a blue ultrathin or doped EML. The device with a blue ultrathin EML demonstrates extremely wide correlated color temperature (CCT) span of 11,411 K, which is attributed to the movement of the main exciton recombination zone and the exciton quenching effect in the blue ultrathin EML. The device with a blue-doped EML delivers a sunlight-style emission with a maximum power efficiency of 57.3 lm/W and achieves CCT span from 3451 K to 8073 K. It is expected that our work paves the way for fabricating high-performance color-tunable OLEDs for smart lighting applications.

Convenience, sensitivity, and selectivity are of great significance for water detection in environmental monitoring and industrial processes. We have synthesized two 0D hybrid manganese halides [CHN]MnBr and [CHN]MnBr·HO, which undergo sensitive reversible transition between green and red emission driven by reversible uptake/removal of coordination water molecules stimulated by being exposed to a high-humidity atmosphere/mildly heated at 60 °C. The former structure has a high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of 81%.

Leveraging conventional red-emitting materials, a color-tuning strategy is used to develop high-performance near-infrared (NIR) organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). This study presents a practical approach for achieving color-tunable optically impaired OLEDs through localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), which extends the emission of red-emitting materials into the NIR region, thereby eliminating the need for dedicated NIR emitters. The method utilizes silver (Ag) and gold (Au) nanoparticle-based anodes modified with titanium dioxide (TiO) coatings under various rapid thermal annealing (RTA) treatments (200 °C, 400 °C, and 600 °C).

The realization of solution-processed tandem quantum-dot LEDs (QLEDs) remains a technical challenge due to the limitations of inefficient interconnect layer and the damage caused by multiple solution processes. Here, we develop a high performance tandem QLED by face-to-face integrating a top-emitting QLED with a transparent QLED. The top and bottom units can be addressed independently, thereby enabling the tandem QLED to operate in series, parallel, and color-tunable modes for multifunctionality.

Circularly polarized luminescence materials based on cost-effective point-chiral luminophores are highly desirable; however, their performance is often hindered by weak exciton-chirality coupling between the luminophore and its adjacent stereocenters. Here, we introduce J-type supramolecular polymerization as an effective strategy to address this challenge. By attaching amide groups to point-chiral anthraquinone luminophores, the formation of directional hydrogen bonds facilitates efficient chirality transfer from peripheral stereocenters to anthraquinones, resulting in supramolecular polymers with amplified chiroptical asymmetry.
