22:T407,Excitation wavelength dependent (Ex-De) emission materials have potential applications in anti-counterfeiting labels and bioimaging. Nevertheless, few purely organic chromophores are used in these areas. In this study, multiple excited states were incorporated into a molecule that was excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) active, with the goal of manipulating the relaxation pathways of the excited states. The triazole derivative exhibits Ex-De photoluminescence (PL), and the maximum PL wavelength is located at 526 nm and 593 nm under a series of excitation wavelengths. Spectral identification indicates that the excimer and ESIPT processes are responsible for the green (526 nm) and orange (593 nm) fluorescence, respectively. Importantly, the quick response code and test strip prepared with this triazole derivative can be used for anti-counterfeiting and food spoilage detection applications, respectively. This research opens the door for developing novel Ex-De materials for anti-counterfeiting purposes.23:T46b,Thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) is generally observed in solid-state organic molecules or metal-organic complexes. However, TADF in all-inorganic colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) is rare. Herein, we report the first colloidal synthesis of an air-stable all-inorganic lead-free Cs₂ ZrCl₆ perovskite NCs. The Cs₂ ZrCl₆ NCs exhibit long-lived triplet excited state (138.2 μs), and feature high photoluminescence (PL) quantum efficiency (QY=60.37 %) due to TADF mechanism. The emission color can be easily tuned from blue to green by synthesizing the mixed-halide Cs₂ ZrBr_x Cl_6-x (0≤x≤1.5) NCs. Femtosecond transient absorption and temperature dependent PL measurements are performed to clarify the emission mechanism. In addition, Bi³⁺ ions are successfully doped into Cs₂ ZrCl₆ NCs, which further extends the PL properties. This work not only develops a new lead-free halide perovskite NCs for potential optoelectronic applications, but also offers unique strategies for developing new inorganic phosphors.
