Mechanistic Origin of Photodegradation and Impurity Effects in Donor–Acceptor Luminescent Radicals

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Purification‐dependent impurities distort the apparent optical and analytical data of TTM‐based radicals without altering their intrinsic photophysical properties. Carbazole attachment elevates the activation barrier of the photodegradation pathway, offering design principles for achieving more robust luminescent radical materials.
