Abstract
The development of a persistent luminescence system with long-lived phosphorescence and color-tunable afterglow at room temperature represents a challenge, largely due to the intensive non-radiative deactivation pathway. In this study, an ultralong-lived room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) system has been achieved using a hydrogen-bonding strategy where poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) matrices were doped with tryptophan (Trp) derivatives. The PVA film doped with N-α-(9-Fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl)-L-tryptophan (Fmoc-L-Trp) exhibited a long-lived phosphorescence emission of up to 3859.70 ms, and a blue afterglow for a duration greater than 34 s, under ambient conditions. The introduction of two other fluorescent dyes (i. e., Rhodamine B and Basicred14) to the PVA film facilitates adjustment to the color of the afterglow from blue to orange, and pink, by a triplet-to-singlet Förster-resonance energy transfer (TS-FRET) process. These films have been successfully applied in silk-screen printing and in multicolor afterglow light-emitting diode (LED) arrays.

Abstract
Purely organic materials exhibiting room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) are promising candidates for oxygen sensors and information encryption owing to their cost-effective and environmentally friendly nature. Herein, we report a bimolecular RTP system where DTBU acts as the guest and TBBU serves as the host. In contrast to previously reported results, we find that both pure DTBU and TBBU do not exhibit RTP in the solid state even under N2 atmosphere. A DTBU/TBBU system with a low doping ratio (0.1 mol %) exhibits persistent yellowish-green afterglow with a lifetime of 340 ms and is highly sensitive to oxygen. A DTBU/TBBU system with a higher doping ratio (10 mol %) maintains a phosphorescence lifetime of 179 ms under air. Applications of DTBU/TBBU at varied doping ratios in both oxygen sensing and information encryption are demonstrated. We propose that the T1 state of TBBU acts as an energy transfer intermediate between Tn and T1 of DTBU, ultimately leading to the generation of persistent RTP. Overall, this work demonstrates the critical importance of material purity in the design of RTP systems, and how an understanding of host-guest doping enables their photophysical properties to be precisely tuned.

Abstract
A rational molecular design strategy facilitates the development of a purely organic room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) material system with precisely regulated luminescence properties, which surely promotes its functional integration and intelligent application. Here, a functional unit combination strategy is proposed to design novel RTP molecules combining a folding unit with diverse luminescent cores. The different luminescent cores are mainly responsible for tunable RTP properties, while the folding unit contributes to the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) enhancement, which makes the RTP material design as workable as the building block principle. By this strategy, a series of color/lifetime-tunable RTP materials is achieved with unique photo-responsive RTP enhancement when subjected to UV irradiation, which expands their application scenarios in reusable privacy tags, advanced "4D" encryption, and phase separation analysis of blended polymers. This work suggests a simple and effective strategy to design purely organic RTP materials with tunable color and lifetime, and also provides new application options for photo-responsive dynamic RTP materials.

Abstract
Afterglow materials are attracting widespread attention owing to their distinctive and long-lived optical emission properties which create exciting opportunities in various fields. Recent research has led to the discovery of many new afterglow materials featuring high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQY) and lifetimes of up to several hours under ambient conditions. Afterglow materials are typically categorized according to their luminescence mechanism, such as long-persistent luminescence (LPL), room temperature phosphorescence (RTP), or thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF). Through rational design and novel synthetic strategies to modulate spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and populate triplet exciton states (T1), luminophores with long lifetimes and bright afterglow characteristics can be realized. Initial research towards afterglow materials focused mainly on pure inorganic materials, many of which possessed inherent disadvantages such as metal toxicity or low energy emissions. In recent years, organic-inorganic hybrid afterglow materials (OIHAMs) have been developed with high PLQY and long lifetimes. These hybrid materials exploit the tunable structure and easy processing of organic molecules, as well as enhanced SOC and intersystem crossing (ISC) processes involving heavy atom dopants, to achieve excellent afterglow performance. In this review, we begin by briefly discussing the structure and composition of inorganic and organic-inorganic hybrid afterglow materials, including strategies for regulating their lifetime, PLQY and luminescence wavelength. The specific advantages of organic-inorganic hybrid afterglow materials, including low manufacturing costs, diverse molecular/electronic structures, tunable structures and optical properties, and compatibility with a variety of substrates, are emphasized. Subsequently, we discuss in detail the fundamental mechanisms used by afterglow materials, their classification, design principles, and end applications (including sensing, anticounterfeiting, and photoelectric devices, among others). Finally, existing challenges and promising future directions are discussed, laying a platform for the design of afterglow materials for specific applications.

Abstract
Red room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials based on non-metallic organic compounds are less reported compared to the commonly found green RTP materials. Here, we propose a novel approach to obtain red RTP materials by integrating and combining two functional units, resembling a jigsaw puzzle. In this approach, benzo[c][2,1,3]thiadiazole (BZT) serves as the red RTP unit, while a folding unit containing sulphur/oxygen is responsible for enhancing spin-orbit coupling (SOC) to accelerate the intersystem crossing (ISC) process. Three new molecules (SS-BZT, SO-BZT, and OO-BZT) were designed and synthesized, among which SS-BZT and SO-BZT with folded geometries demonstrate enhanced red RTP in their monodisperse films compared to the parent BZT. Meanwhile, the SS-BZT film shows a dual emission consisting of blue fluorescence and red RTP, with a significant spectral separation of approximately 150 nm, which makes the SS-BZT film highly suitable for applications in optical oxygen sensing and ratiometric detection. Within the oxygen concentration range of 0-1.31%, the SS-BZT film demonstrates a quenching constant of 2.66 kPa-1 and a quenching efficiency of 94.24%, indicating that this probe has the potential to accurately detect oxygen in a hypoxic environment.

Abstract
Stimulus-responsive organic room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials with long lifetimes, high efficiencies and tunable emission properties have broad applications. However, the amounts and species of efficient RTP materials are far from meeting the requirements and the inner stimulus-responsive mechanisms are unclear. Therefore, developing efficient stimulus-responsive RTP materials is highly desired and the relationship between the molecular structures and luminescent properties of RTP materials needs to be clarified. Based on this point, the influences of different substitution sites of Br on the luminescent properties of RTP molecules are studied by the combined quantum mechanics and molecular mechanics (QM/MM) coupled with thermal vibration correlation function (TVCF) theory. Moreover, the hydrostatic pressure effect on the efficiencies and lifetimes is explored and the inner mechanism is illustrated. The results show that, for the exciton conversion process, the o-substitution molecule possesses the largest spin-orbit coupling (SOC) value (〈S1|Ĥso|T1〉) in the intersystem crossing (ISC) process and this is conducive to the accumulation of triplet excitons. However, for the energy consumption process, the large SOC value (〈S0|Ĥso|T1〉) for the p-substitution molecule brings a fast non-radiative decay rate, and the small SOC value for the m-substitution molecule generates a decreased non-radiative decay rate which is helpful for realizing long lifetime emission. Keeping with this perspective, the conflict between high exciton utilization and long RTP emission needs to be balanced rather than enhancing the SOC effect by simply adding heavy atoms in RTP systems. Through regulating the molecular stacking modes by the hydrostatic pressure effect, the inner stimulus-responsive mechanism is revealed. The data of 〈S1|Ĥso|T1〉 in the ISC process remain almost unchanged, while 〈S0|Ĥso|T1〉 values and transition dipole moments are sensitive to the hydrostatic pressure. Under 1 GPa, the RTP molecule achieves a maximum efficiency (81.17%) and long lifetime (2.72 ms) with the smallest SOC and decreased non-radiative decay rate. To our knowledge, this is the first time that the hydrostatic pressure responsive mechanism for RTP molecules is revealed from a theoretical perspective, and the relationships between molecular structures and luminescent properties are detected. Our work could facilitate the development of high performance RTP molecules and expand their applications in multilevel information encryption.

Abstract
The pressure-dependent luminescence behavior of purely organic compounds is an important topic in the field of stimulus-responsive smart materials. However, the relevant studies are mainly limited to the investigation of fluorescence properties, while room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) of purely organic compounds has not been investigated. Here, we filled in this gap regarding pressure-dependent RTP by using a model molecule selenanthrene (SeAN) with a folded geometry. For the first time to the best of our knowledge, a unique phenomenon involving pressure-induced RTP enhancement was discovered in an SeAN crystal, and an underlying mechanism involving folding-induced spin-orbit coupling enhancement was revealed. Pressure-induced RTP enhancement was also observed in an analog of SeAN also showing a folded geometry, but in this case yielded a white-light emission that is very rare in purely organic RTP-displaying materials.

Abstract
Herein we report on the synthesis of six new phosphane-gold(I)-4-ethynylaniline complexes (neutral and cationic), with a tris-naphthalene substituted tertiary phosphane bearing a secondary amine as a linker and containing different halogen groups (Cl and Br) in the naphthyl group. We have demonstrated in this work how the careful control of the intermolecular aggregation process can modulate the competition between phosphorescence emission and energy transfer from the triplet state of the gold(I) complexes to produce singlet oxygen.
