The excitons in organic semiconductors undergo either radiative or non-radiative decay after excitation.Unlike the singlets in the fluorescence counterparts, the triplets in the heavy-metal based phosphorescent emitter, thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitter with a small singlet-triplet gap, and metal-free room-temperature phosphorescence emitter with strong spinorbital coupling, respectively, could be feasibly harvested for photon generation, which are responsible for the theoretical 100% internal quantum efficiency.The emerging research on triplet manipulation of the heavy-metal-free organic emitters opens a new door for chasing more cost-effective applications in displays,solid-state lighting, data encryption, biosensing and medical treatments.
