AbstractAggregation-induced emission (AIE) has proven to be a viable strategy to achieve highly efficient room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) in bulk by restricting molecular motions. Here, we show that by utilizing triphenylamine (TPA) as an electronic donor that connects to an acceptor via an sp3 linker, six TPA-based AIE-active RTP luminophores were obtained. Distinct dual phosphorescence bands emitting from largely localized donor and acceptor triplet emitting states could be recorded at lowered temperatures; at room temperature, only a merged RTP band is present. Theoretical investigations reveal that the two temperature-dependent phosphorescence bands both originate from local/global minima from the lowest triplet excited state (T1). The reported molecular construct serves as an intermediary case between a fully conjugated donor-acceptor system and a donor/acceptor binary mix, which may provide important clues on the design and control of high-freedom molecular systems with complex excited-state dynamics.

<p>Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) has proven to be a viable strategy to achieve highly efficient RTP in bulk by restricting molecular motions. Here we show that by utilizing triphenylamine (TPA) as an electronic donor which connects to an acceptor via an sp3 linker, six TPA-based AIE-active RTP luminophores were obtained. Both the TPA AIE-gen and the <i>sp</i><sup>3</sup>-linkage can suppress aggregation-caused quenching. Consequently, dual phosphorescence bands emitting from localized donor and acceptor triplet states, respectively, could be recorded at lowered temperatures; at room temperature, only a single RTP band corresponding to the lowest triplet state is present, presumably due to thermally assisted electronic coupling between the two states. The reported molecular construct serves as an “intermediary case” between a fully conjugated donor-acceptor system and a do-nor/acceptor binary mix, which may provide important clues on the design and control of molecular systems with complex excited-state dynamics.<br></p>
