Published studies of layered (2D) (100)-oriented hybrid lead-bromide perovskites evidence a correlation between increased inter-octahedral (Pb-Br-Pb) distortions and the appearance of broadband white light emission. However, the impact of distortions within their constituent [PbBr ] octahedra has yet to be assessed. Herein, we report two new (100)-oriented 2D Pb-Br perovskites, whose structures display unusually high intra-octahedral distortions, whilst retaining minimal inter-octahedral distortions. Using a combination of temperature-dependent, power-dependent and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopic measurements, we show that increased intra-octahedral distortion induces exciton localization processes and leads to formation of multiple photoinduced emissive colour centres. Ultimately, this leads to highly Stokes-shifted, ultrabroad white light emission at room temperature.

The wide use of mono- or bis-styryl fluorophores in biomedical applications prompted the presented design and study of a series of trimeric and tetrameric homo-analogues, styryl moieties arranged around a central aromatic core. The interactions with the most common biorelevant targets, ds-DNA and ds-RNA, were studied by a set of spectrophotometric methods (UV-VIS, fluorescence, circular dichroism, thermal denaturation). All studied dyes showed strong light absorption in the 350-420 nm range and strongly Stokes-shifted (+100-160 nm) emission with quantum yields () up to 0.

In the past few decades, significant efforts have been devoted to developing phenazine derivatives in various fields such as medicine, pesticides, dyes, and conductive materials owing to their highly Stokes-shifted fluorescence and distinctive photophysical properties. The modulation of the surrounding environment can effectively influence the luminescent behavior of phenazine derivatives, prompting us to investigate the solvent effect on the excited state dynamics. Herein, we present the solvent controlled excited state dynamics of a novel triphenylamine-based phenazine-imidazole molecule (TPAIP) through steady-state spectra and femtosecond transient absorption spectra.

Tetraphenylethylene (TPE) derivatives are one of the fundamental units for developing aggregation induced emission (AIE) scaffolds. However, the underlying mechanisms implicated in the relaxation of the excited TPE remain a topic of ongoing discussion, while the effect of bulky substituents on its photobehaviour is still under scrutiny. Here, we report a detailed study of the photophysical properties of a new symmetrical and bulky TPE derivative with terphenyl groups (TTECOOBu) in solvents of different polarities and viscosities.

Herein, excitation wavelength-independent, tunable emissive and amphiphilic CDs with high quantum yield were synthesized by a low-temperature oxidation method employing banana peel waste as a carbon source. These CDs showed longer wavelength emissions (green to yellow) independent of the excitation wavelength when dispersed in different polar to non-polar solvents. The quantum yields of the same CDs were 9-32% in different solvent polarities for different emissions.

- Self-trapping of excitons in low-dimensional metal halides, driven by strong electron-phonon coupling, shows promise for applications in optoelectronics and solid-state lighting.
- The study focuses on the synthesis of ultrathin RbPbBr nanoplates, which exhibit broad emission across the visible to near-infrared spectrum with a long photoluminescence lifetime.
- Unique properties such as low sound velocity and bulk moduli in these nanoplates indicate significant anharmonicity and a soft lattice structure, enhancing the effectiveness of broadband self-trapping exciton emissions.
