Manipulation of Organic Afterglow in Fluoranthene-Containing Dopant-Matrix Systems: From Conventional Room-Temperature Phosphorescence to Efficient Red TADF-Type Organic Afterglow.

It remains challenging to fabricate highly-efficient and long-lived organic afterglow materials, especially in the case of red afterglow systems. Here we develop advanced charge transfer (CT) technology to boost afterglow efficiency and lifetimes in fluoranthene-containing dopant-matrix systems. First, organic CT molecules possess singlet-triplet splitting energy (ΔE ) of around 0.

Manipulation of Triplet Excited States in Two-Component Systems for High-Performance Organic Afterglow Materials.

The past several years have witnessed the tremendous development of novel chemical structures, new design strategies and intriguing applications in the field of room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) and organic afterglow materials. This Review article focuses on recent advancements of high-performance organic afterglow materials obtained by two-component design strategies such as a dopant-matrix, donor-acceptor, sensitization, and energy-transfer strategies. Based on some cutting-edge studies, organic afterglow efficiency has been largely improved, exceeding 90 % in several cases.

Gaining New Insights into Trace Guest Doping Role in Manipulating Organic Crystal Phosphorescence.

Trace guest doping systems often show better room temperature phosphorescence (RTP), but trace guest doping role and mechanism are not recognized well. Here we cocrystallize commercial (CCZ) and self-made (LCZ) carbazole derivatives and verify that 0.2‰ isomer doping can afford the deserved crystal RTP, but further increasing the isomer amount hardly improves RTP.

Establishment and characterization of a novel human colorectal cancer cell line (CLY) metastasizing spontaneously to the liver in nude mice.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) with liver metastasis is a fatal disease with rapid progression and poor patient outcome. However, the molecular mechanism involved in liver metastasis of CRC remains essentially unknown, largely because of the presence of few available CRC cell lines with liver metastasis origin and spontaneous metastatic potentials in nude mice. In this study, we established a novel metastatic CRC cell line, CLY, derived from liver metastasis of a 64-year-old Chinese CRC patient.
