Abstract
Thermally activated delayed fluorescent (TADF) emitters have received great attention in organic light-emitting diodes and laser diodes because of high exciton utilization efficiency and low optical loss caused by triplets. However, the direct observation of lasing emission from nondoped TADF microcrystals has yet to be reported. Here, we demonstrated a three-color (green, yellow, and red) microlaser from three nondoped TADF microcrystals with well-controlled geometries. The temperature-dependent dynamic analyses testify that the regenerated singlets which originated from the reverse intersystem crossing process at room temperature are beneficial for population inversion and reduce triplet-absorption/annihilation optical loses, together resulting in thermally activated lasing actions. Thanks to single-crystalline structures of TADF emitters, the relationship between triplet-harvesting capability and the molecular structure was systematically investigated. The results not only offer rational design of pure TADF gain materials but also provide guidance for the high-performance electrically driven organic solid-state lasers and multicolor laser integration.
