Two-Dimensional Hybrid Perovskitoid Micro/nanosheets: Colorful Ultralong Phosphorescence, Delayed Fluorescence, and...

Molecular persistent luminescence, such as room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) and thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF), have attracted broad attention in the fields of biological imaging, information security, and optoelectronic devices. However, the development of molecular micro/nanostructures combining both RTP and TADF properties is still in an early stage. Herein, a new type of organic metal hybrid perovskitoid (OMHP) two-dimensional (2D) microcrystal has been fabricated through a facile solution method. The long-lived TADF-RTP dual emission can be highly tuned by changing the excitation wavelength, temperature, and decayed time. Moreover, the 2D OMHP microsheet exhibits an asymmetric and anisotropic optical waveguide with low optical loss coefficient, together with extremely high linearly polarized fluorescence-phosphorescence emission (anisotropy = 0.96), which is promising for the development of polarization-sensitive luminescent materials. Therefore, this work not only demonstrates new OMHP showing colorful persistent luminescence under different modes (such as excitation wavelength, temperature, polarization, lifetime, and dimension) but also takes advantage of the 2D micro/nanostructure to provide potential applications as optical logic gates and for delicate multiple information encryption.
