Technical Field

The invention relates to the field of luminescent materials, in particular to an organic luminescent material and a preparation method and application thereof.

Background

At present, pure organic luminescent materials are concerned by the important basic research value and the wide application prospect in the fields of organic light emitting diodes, anti-counterfeiting encryption, sensing, biological imaging and the like. With the increasingly deep research on pure organic light-emitting materials, atypical light-emitting compounds which do not contain the traditional large conjugated structure and have intrinsic light-emitting properties have attracted extensive research interest, and compared with the traditional organic light-emitting compounds which must contain a significant conjugated structure, the atypical light-emitting compounds have the advantages of good biocompatibility, environmental friendliness, hydrophilicity, low toxicity and the like, and have higher application value.

On the other hand, luminescent materials with ultra-long-life room temperature phosphorescence have special value in applications such as photoelectricity. For example, encoded microparticles with time-dependent luminescence can be used as information carriers for high-density, encrypted data storage, security and multiplex biometrics. When the method is applied to biological images, due to the long-life property, after the ultraviolet lamp is turned off for illumination, afterglow still exists to a certain degree, the requirement on illumination can be eliminated, interference of nanosecond tissue autofluorescence is avoided, and biological images with high signal-to-noise ratio and higher definition and reliability are obtained.

For a pure organic room temperature phosphorescent material, electron transition between singlet state and triplet state is forbidden, and the inter-system cross-linking (ISC) process can be partially allowed by enhancing spin-orbit coupling (SOC), so that triplet state excitons are generated. Atypical luminescent compounds often contain heteroatoms such as nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, phosphorus, etc. in their molecular structure, which help to facilitate the ISC process and generate triplet emission.

However, these compounds tend to be non-aromatic and have a low degree of molecular conjugation, and thus it has been a challenge to construct an atypical luminescent material having long-wavelength emission, high quantum efficiency, Room-Temperature Phosphorescence (RTP), and even ultra-long-life Room-Temperature Phosphorescence (p-RTP) through simple molecular design and preparation processes.
