This article takes a look back over our research on the development of organic fluorophores that efficiently emit light in the solid state and precious-metal-free phosphors that emit light at room temperature. In particular, we place an emphasis on the prehistory of each project and the relationship between the established molecular designs. Our story starts from the serendipitous discovery of a luminophore with a single benzene core and follows the molecular design and characterization of 2,5-dipiperidyl-1,4-bis(acceptor-substituted ethenyl)benzenes that exhibit solid-state fluorescence with high-to-excellent quantum yields in the blue-to-red region. In addition, the design concepts, luminescence characteristics, and applications of eight novel classes of fluorophores are described, and the discovery, design, and luminescent properties of precious-metal-free compounds that show efficient room-temperature phosphorescence are presented.

从单苯核荧光团到无贵金属有机磷光体的旅程

本文回顾了我们对在固态下有效发光的有机荧光团和在室温下发光的无贵金属磷光体的开发研究。我们特别强调每个项目的史前史以及已建立的分子设计之间的关系。我们的故事从偶然发现具有单苯核的发光体开始，并遵循 2,5-二哌啶基-1,4-双（受体取代的乙烯基）苯的分子设计和表征，这些苯具有高在蓝色到红色区域中达到出色的量子产率。此外，还描述了八类新型荧光团的设计概念、发光特性和应用，以及发现、设计、
