Summary: | The ability to generate and manipulate photoluminescence (PL) behavior has been of primary importance for applications in information security. Excavating novel optical effects to create more possibilities for information encoding has become a continuous challenge. Herein, we present an unprecedented PL temporary quenching that highly couples with thermodynamic phase transition in a hybrid crystal (DMML)2MnBr4 (DMML=N,N‐dimethylmorpholinium). Such unusual PL behavior originates from the anomalous variation of [MnBr4]2− tetrahedrons that leads to non‐radiation recombination near the phase transition temperature of 340 K. Remarkably, the suitable detectable temperature, narrow response window, high sensitivity, and good cyclability of this PL temporary quenching will endow encryption applications with high concealment, operational flexibility, durability, and commercial popularization. Profited from these attributes, a fire‐new optical encryption model is devised to demonstrate high confidential information security. This unprecedented optical effect would provide new insights and paradigms for the development of luminescent materials to enlighten future information encryption.
An unusual temporary photoluminescence (PL) quenching effect is herein reported for the first time, namely the thermodynamic phase transition of (DMML)2MnBr4 (DMML=N,N‐dimethylmorpholinium) couples highly with PL response. Notably, the intriguing phenomenon will make an important contribution to the further in‐depth exploration of responsive photoluminescence and optical encryption. |
