Abstract Thermochromic fluorescent materials (TFMs) have garnered great attention due to their unique fluorescence transition responsive temperature. However, the application of TFMs is limited defects such as low thermosensitivity and a high temperature‐responsive threshold value. In this case, work explores feasible strategy for designing TFMs. On one hand, sterically hindered unilateral tetraphenylethylene (TPE) substituent introduced into pyrene chromophore in meta‐ linkage mode. This type molecular architecture aimed at integration both aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) character isolated π–π dimer stacking, facilitating achievement contrast intensity (i.e., strongly emissive aggregation state versus weakly dispersion state) color ( i.e , excimer monomer). other an effective matrix platform featured with alky chain length‐dependent temperature‐induced phase constructed assist fabrication desired patterns through temperature‐controlled reversible between crystalline non‐dispersion liquated states. The findings demonstrate that these studied can be potentially applied temperature indicators switchable dynamic interior decoration, which provides new avenue design

Abstract Ultralong room‐temperature phosphorescent (URTP) materials have attracted wide attention in anti‐counterfeiting, optoelectronic display, and bio‐imaging due to their special optical properties. However, blue are very scarce during applications because of the need simultaneously populate stabilize high‐energy excited states. In this work, a stepwise stiffening chromophore strategy is proposed suppress non‐radiative jump by continuously reducing internal spin chromophore, successfully developing series materials. Phosphorescence lifetimes more than 3 s achieved, with longest lifetime reaching 5.44 lasting 70 naked eye. As far as know, best result that has been reported.
