Ultra‐Flexible Dual‐Band Organic Photodetectors for Visible and Near‐Infrared Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
An ultra‐flexible dual‐band organic photodetector with a total thickness of 5.6 µm for bio‐sensing is developed. It selectively detects visible and near‐infrared light with high sensitivity by switching the voltage. Peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) measurement is demonstrated using the device attached to a finger under a single light source by ...

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

open access: yesAdvanced 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.
