Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a cuprous complex luminescent material and application thereof in recording, storing and protecting information, belonging to the field of information recording, storing and protecting. Background Art

[0002] The recording, storage and protection of information are becoming increasingly important in modern life. Traditional anti-counterfeiting technologies such as barcodes, QR codes, watermarks, and laser holograms have been developed and utilized. However, these technologies are easy to copy and have low security. Stimulus-responsive fluorescent materials that emit different luminescence colors or intensities under external stimuli (such as temperature, light, humidity, mechanical pressure, pH, voltage, etc.) have opened up new avenues for the development of optical information protection. However, there is often varying degrees of spectral overlap between different fluorescent signals of this technology, making it difficult to distinguish which fluorescent signal is which. Fluorescence lifetime imaging technology, which uses the different fluorescence lifetimes of luminescent materials as detection signals, has opened up a new dimension for improving the ability to record, store and protect optical information. This technology can eliminate the influence of different fluorescence spectra, excitation light sources, optical filters and signal detectors without increasing the complexity of the information recording, storage and protection procedures.

[0003] To realize the utilization of fluorescence lifetime imaging technology, the development of luminescent materials with long emission lifetimes is urgently needed. Phosphorescent noble metal transition metal and lanthanide complexes are widely used in the field of optical information protection due to their advantages such as long emission lifetimes, large Stokes shifts, narrow emission spectra, good photostability, and minimal background interference. However, these materials contain expensive metals, which greatly limits their application in optical information protection.

[0004] Ionic cuprous complexes centered on the abundant and inexpensive cuprous ion can achieve phosphorescence or thermally activated delayed fluorescence with long luminescence lifetimes due to their weak spin-orbit coupling, opening up potential applications in information encryption. The luminescence of such complexes typically originates from the charge transfer state from the metal to the ligand. By varying the electrostatic interaction between the cationic coordination unit and the counterion, the luminescence lifetime of ionic cuprous complexes can be modulated, leading to applications in data storage and security (Adv. Optical Mater. 2018, 1801065). However, there are relatively few ionic cuprous complexes suitable for fluorescence lifetime imaging, and developing new strategies to modulate their luminescence lifetimes is crucial.

[0005] Compared to counterions, ligands themselves, due to their direct coordination with the central cuprous ion, have a significant influence on the luminescence properties of the complex. If the appropriate ligand is selected, the luminescence lifetime can be adjusted without changing the emission color. Summary of the Invention
