Light-excited flexible and self-healing luminescent polymers have attracted extensive attention for developing advanced color-emitting films. Luminophores on the base of lanthanide(III)-incorporating polysiloxanes exhibit a high photoresponse and can be applied for controlled color lighting in flexible device applications. We present red-, green-, and blue-emitting Eu 3+ , Tb 3+ , and Tm 3+ -bipyridinedicarboxamide-co-polydimethylsiloxanes (Ln-Bipy-PDMS) produced with a two-step procedure of polycondensation and complexation. Bipyridinic ligands provide formation of coordinatively saturated complexes of lanthanide ions and strong photoluminescence (PL) in the case of Eu 3+ and Tb 3+ . The thin Ln-Bipy-PDMS films are studied as ultraviolet-light converters, which can be mechanically stacked one above another to achieve the desired color. We demonstrate that these stacks can have intense PL in the spectral range from green to yellow and red. Due to the structural features, Ln-Bipy-PDMS also demonstrate a relatively high tensile (approximately 1.5 MPa) and elongation at break (approximately 185%) and non-autonomous self-healing on heating. The self-healing properties of Ln-Bipy-PDMS enable the stacking of films into monoliths with the required color of PL. Such systems do not require any synthesis stages, and a one-healed monolith film possesses two luminescence colors.

The architecture of transparent contacts is of utmost importance for creation of efficient flexible light-emitting devices (LEDs) and other deformable electronic devices. We successfully combined the newly synthesized transparent and durable silicone rubbers and the semiconductor materials with original fabrication methods to design LEDs and demonstrate their significant flexibility. We developed electrodes based on a composite GaP nanowire−phenylethyl-functionalized silicone rubber membrane, improved with single-walled carbon nanotube films for a hybrid poly(ethylene oxide)−metal−halide perovskite (CsPbBr 3 ) flexible green LED. The proposed approach provides a novel platform for fabrication of flexible hybrid optoelectronic devices.
