Photoluminescent molecules, capable of absorbing and re-emitting light, play an important role in the development of technologies such as light-emitting diodes, sensors, and displays. Among them, ...

A research team led by Osaka University discovered that the new organic molecule thienyl diketone shows high-efficiency phosphorescence. It achieved phosphorescence that is more than ten times faster ...

The eerie phosphorescence displayed by a rare form of blue diamond can be used as an easy, cheap, and nondestructive way to identify individual gemstones and to distinguish natural blue diamonds from ...

Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Organic Electronics, Electron Beam & Plasma Technology (FEP) have long been involved in development of OLED-on-silicon sensors. Now they have developed a ...

While watching the ocean at this time of year, I anxiously await alignment of water and biological conditions that create ocean phosphorescence. It is the magic of nature in the ocean to rival the ...

A team has discovered that the new organic molecule thienyl diketone exhibits high-efficiency phosphorescence, achieving a rate over ten times faster than traditional materials. This breakthrough ...
