Abstract Photomultiplication-type organic photodetectors (PM-OPDs) offer signal amplification, ideal for faint light detection and simplified systems, but typically face slow response speeds high dark currents. In contrast, photovoltaic-type OPDs (PV-OPDs) provide fast detectivity (D*) have limited photoresponse. This study introduces a non-fullerene acceptor, BFDO-4F, into the active layer to create trap states photogenerated electron capture. The resulting device exhibits dual-mode characteristics is bias-switchable between PV PM-modes. It achieves D* of 1.92×10¹² Jones times 2.83/4.43 µs in PV-mode, exceptional EQEs up 3484% PM-mode. Notably, an on-chip self-powered module featuring PV-mode pixels driving PM-mode pixel demonstrated, yielding photocurrent approximately five higher than reference device. approach establishes new framework developing multifunctional, bias-switchable, OPDs, unlocking diverse opportunities highly integrated advanced sensing applications.

While monoradical emitters have emerged as a new route toward efficient organic light-emitting diodes, the luminescence property of diradicaloids is still scarcely explored. Herein, by devising novel radical–radical coupling-based synthetic approach, we report class sulfone-functionalized Chichibabin's hydrocarbon derivatives, SD-1–3, featuring varied substituent patterns and moderate to high diradical characters 0.44–0.70, highly stable with rarely seen NIR emission beyond 900 nm. Via comprehensive experimental theoretical investigations, reveal that optoelectronic magnetic properties these materials are significantly tuned variations substitutions (H/CF3/OMe) on molecular skeletons. More importantly, quantum chemical computations indicate embedding sulfone groups has contributed breaking their quasi-C2 symmetry diradicaloid molecules results in an excited-state charge transfer character. Therefore, remarkably deep emissive wavelength up 998 nm, together large Stokes shift (∼386 nm), achieved for CF3-based SD-2 molecule tetrahydrofuran. To best our knowledge, such luminescent represented longest wavelengths among currently reported fluorescent radicals. Overall, work not only establishes approach hydrocarbons but also paves way designing open-shell both fundamental understanding feasible control properties.
