Iridium is used in commercial light-emitting devices and in photocatalysis but is among the rarest stable chemical elements. Therefore, replacing iridium(III) in photoactive molecular complexes with abundant metals is of great interest. First-row transition metals generally tend to yield poorer luminescence behavior, and it remains difficult to obtain excited states with redox properties that exceed those of noble-metal-based photocatalysts.

Elevated temperatures can lead to reabsorption and color drift, compromising the quality of phosphor-converted white light-emitting diode (pc-WLED) devices. To ensure the performance of WLEDs under these conditions, it is essential to develop luminescent materials that maintain stable color. Consequently, there is a pressing need for single-phase white-emitting phosphors with robust chromatic stability.

Metal halides are widely applied in solid-state lighting (SSL), optoelectronic devices, information encryption, and near-infrared (NIR) detection due to their superior photoelectric properties and tunable emission. However, single-component phosphors that can be efficiently excited by light-emitting diode (LED) chips and cover both the visible (VIS) and NIR emission regions are still very rare. To address this issue, (TPA)ZnBr:Sn/Mn (TPA = [(CHCHCH)N]) phosphors were synthesized by using the solvent evaporation method.
