Persistent luminescence (PL) is a distinctive optical phenomenon with long‐lasting afterglow
emissions after the cessation of excitation, thus emerging huge prospects in the applications …

Great progress has been made in inorganic persistent phosphors, especially in the recent
two decades, motivated by the discoveries of the SrAl 2 O 4: Eu 2+-Dy 3+ in the green and …

Achievement of high photoluminescence quantum efficiency and thermal stability is
challenging for near-infrared (NIR)-emitting phosphors. Here, we designed a “kill two birds …

Abstract NaYF4: Ln3+, due to its outstanding upconversion characteristics, has become one
of the most important luminescent nanomaterials in biological imaging, optical information …

The first carbon dot (CD)-based organic long persistent luminescence (OLPL) system
exhibiting more than 1 h of duration was developed. In contrast to the established OLPL …

Ce3+/Eu2+ activated luminescent materials offer a versatile platform for precise emission
light manipulation through structure control on the basis of the composition–structure …

In this Review article, we systematically summarize the design and applications of various
kinds of long-lived emissive probes for bioimaging and biosensing via time-resolved …

Advances in solid state white lighting technologies witness the explosive development of
phosphor materials (down-conversion luminescent materials). A large amount of evidence …

Ultralong room temperature phosphorescence (URTP) emitted from pure amorphous
organic molecules is very rare. Although a few crystalline organic molecules could realize …

Site preferences of dopant Eu2+ on the locations of K+, Ba2+, and Ca2+ in the mixed cation
phosphate K2BaCa (PO4) 2 (KBCP) are quantitatively analyzed via a combined …
