Summary: In this study, a new method has been developed to achieve high-resolution pixelated emission by controlling the thickness of transparent electrodes, resulting in a color-converting cavity that can selectively convert unpatterned quantum-dot white emission into saturated red, green, and blue emission. This method enables ultrahigh density red, green, and blue emission with a resolution of approximately 1700 pixels per inch, as well as achieving a color gamut of 111% NTSC.

Summary: This study reports the development of white organic light-emitting diodes (WOLEDs) based on platinum complexes with tunable correlated color temperature (CCT). By methylating the ligand, the interaction between Pt(II) complexes was regulated, resulting in adjustable emission and CCT of the WOLEDs. High device performances with high external quantum efficiency and low efficiency roll-offs were achieved using exciplex as a host. Moreover, the CCT of the WOLEDs could be tuned by changing the driving voltages, matching with the daylight spectrum.

Summary: Iridium(III) complexes play a significant role in photochemistry and photophysics due to their stability and emissive properties. The heavy-atom effect of iridium promotes singlet-triplet transitions, with the complexes exhibiting metal-centered, ligand-centered, or charge transfer properties in the excited state. The design of ligands allows for fine tuning of the electronic properties, making iridium(III) complexes a valuable tool in optoelectronic devices.

Summary: The development of high-efficiency NIR-emitting Ir(III)-complex-based phosphors for reliable NIR-OLEDs remains a challenge. A molecule-engineered approach was developed to create C-1-symmetric Ir(III)-complexes with good NIR-luminescent efficiency. The preferentially horizontal orientation of the emitting dipoles contributes to highly efficient NIR-OLEDs with light out-coupling.

Summary: This study reports a new family of Zn(16)Ln(HA)(16) metallacrowns with outstanding luminescence properties in the near-infrared (NIR) and suitability for cell imaging. The authors synthesized MCs with two new hydroximate ligands and found that they efficiently sensitize the NIR emissions of Yb-III, Er-III, and Nd-III. The photophysical properties and quantum yields of the MCs were analyzed, providing valuable information for creating MCs suitable for NIR optical imaging.

Summary: In this study, a new family of cationic iridium(III) complexes with modified emission properties and photoluminescence quantum yield were investigated by introducing different substituents. A switch of the lowest triplet excited state was observed. The experimental and theoretical results showed good agreement, demonstrating the potential of these complexes as emitting materials.

Summary: In this study, a series of Cr3+-activated near-infrared (NIR) phosphors with broadband emission and tunable luminescence properties were designed and prepared. The luminescence characteristics of the materials could be controlled by adjusting the crystal field strength. One of the phosphors exhibited high luminous efficiency even at high temperature, and the thermal stability was attributed to the structural confinement and the electron-phonon coupling effect.

Summary: The synthesis of four red emissive complexes of europium based on Hfodo and L is described. Luminescence analysis confirmed the intense red emission of the complexes in both powder and solution form. The colorimetric parameters calculated from emission spectral data affirm the usefulness of these complexes in displays and laser diodes.

Summary: Two new phosphorescent red iridium(III) emitters have been successfully synthesized, including a carbonyl derivative and an acetylacetonate compound. The tetradentate 6e-donor ligand of these complexes is formed by two different bidentate units, and the link between the bidentate units reduces the number of possible stereoisomers and allows for noticeable stereocontrol.
