Abstract
Efficient light generation from triplet states of organic molecules has been a hot yet demanding topic in academia and the display industry. Herein, we propose a strategy for developing triplet emitter by creating heterostructures of organic chromophores and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). These heterostructures emit microsecond phosphorescence at room temperature, while their organic chromophores intrinsically exhibit millisecond phosphorescence under vibration dissipation-free conditions. This enhancement in phosphorescence is indicative of significantly enhanced spin-orbit coupling efficiency through coupling with TMDs. Through detailed studies on these hybrids from various perspectives, we elucidate key features of each component essential for generating microsecond triplet emission, including 2H-TMDs with heavy transition metals and aromatic carbonyl with an ortho-hydroxy group. Our intriguing findings open avenues for exploring the universal applicability of fast and stable hybrid triplet emitters.
