growing interest for applications in, for example, bioimaging, [1][2][3][4][5] telecommunication, [6][7][8][9][10][11][12] and as chemical sensors, [13][14][15][16][17] due to important advantages such as light weight, flexibility, areal emission, and low power consumption. [18][19][20][21][22] Accordingly, there is currently an intense development of NIR-emitting organic semiconductors, including lanthanide complexes, [23,24] organic small molecules (SMs), [25,26] conjugated polymers, [27][28][29][30] and transition-metal complexes, [11,31] which are implemented in NIR-emissive devices, primarily organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). However, a general drawback with efficient OLEDs is that they depend upon a sophisticated multilayer active-material structure and a low-work-function cathode.Compared with conventional OLEDs, the light-emitting electrochemical cell (LEC) exhibits several important advantages.
