Abstract

It is urgent to develop a universal strategy for producing small organic molecules exhibiting efficient room temperature phosphorescence (RTP). An important contribution made by Ma and Tian et al. provides a general and applicable strategy to obtain amorphous organic molecules with efficient RTP emission by simply modifying phosphors onto β-cyclodextrin (β-CD). The nonradiative decay processes and oxygen quenching have been significantly suppressed by the strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding between β-CD derivatives. Furthermore, the cavity of β-CDs endows them with the ability to incorporate the adamantane moiety of the fluorescent guest molecules to construct a supramolecular system which exhibits excellent RTP-fluorescence dual emission properties and multicolor emission by altering the host to guest ratio and the excitation wavelength.
