“…As known from early examples, , strong and abundant hydrogen bonds among chromophores and PVA matrix can significantly suppress the nonradiative decays and isolate molecular oxygen to protect the triplet excitons and realize RTP and afterglow emission. Therefore, phosphors containing hydroxyl, carboxyl, amino, or aromatic heterocycles can achieve long-lifetime RTP emission. ,, Recently, other noncovalent interactions of electrostatic and dispersion interactions were found to contribute crucially to the ultralong RTP properties. − Most studies reveal the protective effects of the PVA matrix, including restricting molecular motions, reducing vibrational dissipation, suppressing quencher diffusion, and enhancing polymer rigidity to allow the sensitive triplet excitons to emit persistently (Scheme a). However, little attention is paid to the positive effects of the PVA matrix on the intersystem crossing, which populates triplet excitons and determines the upper limit of RTP efficiency. ,, …”
