Intriguing Room Temperature Phosphorescence in Crystalline Porous Organic Frameworks

Abstract

Organic room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials have become a hot topic in the field of luminescence wherein the crystalline porous organic frameworks (metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs))-based RTP materials are receiving considerable attention. Beyond all doubt, crystalline porous organic frameworks-based RTP materials perfectly integrate the advantages of crystalline porous organic frameworks and RTP materials. This review provides a timely and brief outline for the development of crystalline porous organic frameworks RTP materials including the construction strategy of MOFs/HOFs/COFs-based RTP materials and their RTP performance as well as potential applications. Moreover, the conclusion and outlook are also discussed to present the challenges and prospects for further development of high-performance MOFs/HOFs/COFs-based RTP materials.
