Abstract

We propose a new approach for a totally organic, room-temperature phosphorescent system with a lifetime on the order of milliseconds, which is achieved by promotion of the one-dimensional chiral stacking of a simple, small fluorophore in a solution state. The versatility of this system is highlighted by its good applicability to the fabrication of a phosphorescent polymer film. This paper demonstrates the first example of a room-temperature phosphorescent polymer film prepared with our methodology.
