Tunable multicolor luminescence materials can flexibly meet the needs of smart lighting, enabling efficient light energy use and minimizing waste. Lead-free hybrid double perovskites AMM(NO) hold great potential in luminescence, benefiting from their tunable composition, high light absorption, low synthesis cost, and environmental friendliness. However, achieving tunable multicolor emission within a single matrix of these materials has yet to be realized. In this study, a series of [(CH)N]KEuTb(NO) single crystals have been synthesized using an environmentally friendly and mild aqueous solution evaporation method. The two emitter centers, Tb and Eu, display energy transfer from Tb to Eu. The emission color of the as-synthesized crystals gradually changes from red to orange, then to yellow, and finally to green with an increase of Tb concentration, achieving yellow and green light emission in the three-dimensional rare-earth hybrid double perovskites for the first time. Green emission from [(CH)N]KTb(NO) displays the highest quantum yield at 87%. The millisecond-level emission decay time and high decomposition temperatures (365 °C) of [(CH)N]KEuTb(NO) single crystals highlight their potential for use in luminescent devices and phosphors, among other fields.

Lead-free double perovskite (DP) materials have garnered growing interest because of their outstanding optoelectronic attributes. Nevertheless, realizing efficient, multimodal photoluminescence (PL) with adjustable emission spectra within single-host DP materials still poses a formidable hurdle. Herein, Er-based lead-free DPs (CsNaErCl) were developed, which achieves downshift (DS) emissions from visible to near-infrared (NIR) and multicolor upconversion (UC) emissions, resulting from the abundant energy levels of Er ions.

The design of synthetic hydrogels that can mimic their biological counterparts in the simultaneous production of multicolor change and shape transformation in response to environmental stimuli is of great importance toward intelligent camouflage, encryption, and actuation. Previous efforts have focused primarily on developing heterogeneous hydrogels that highly rely on respective mechanisms to achieve color and shape changes separately, and synergistically synchronizing such two variations into structurally homogenous hydrogels via a single chromophore has been challenging. Here, the molecular design of a structurally homogenous hydrogel simultaneously exhibiting synchronized multicolor change and shape deformation triggered by a single stimulus of light is reported.

For many industrial application, there arise a demand for multistate with multicolor emissive materials due to its substantial applications than fluorophore shows emission in single state. Therefore, in this work donor-acceptor-donor' (D-A-D') based three organic emitters (DSE1-DSE3) were synthesized. A substituted phenyl ring and cyano vinyl unit are used to manage molecular geometry and steric hindrance to reduce the gap between AIE and ACQ, resulting in an improved dual-state emission.

Two-dimensional (2D) organic lateral heterostructures (OLHs) integrating two or more components have important potential applications in optoelectronics. However, the controlled synthesis of 2D OLHs with in-plane tunable emission remains a great challenge owing to the difficulty in the sequential integration of multiple components. Here, a cascaded strategy is demonstrated for the hierarchical assembly of OLHs with in-plane multicolor emission, from red-blue and red-green to lateral red-green-blue (RGB), with a lateral size of ~15 micrometers.
