Abstract

Achieving stimulus-responsive ultralong room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) in organic materials especially with full-color tunable emissions is attractive and important but rarely reported. Here, a strategy was reported to realize stimulus-responsive RTP effect with color-tunable emissions by using water as solvent in the preparation process without any organic solvent through covalent linkage of arylboronic acids with different π conjugations and polymer matrix of polyvinyl alcohol. The yielded polymer films exhibit outstanding RTP performance (2.43 s). Furthermore, an excitation-dependent RTP film was obtained, and the afterglow color changes from blue to green, then to red as the excitation wavelength increases. The RTP property of all the above materials is sensitive to water and heat stimuli, because the rigidity of the system could be broken by water. Last, they were successfully applied in a multilevel information encryption and multicolor paper and ink.
