| Research Abstract |
We developed an organic RSA material that displays a large decrease in transmittance upon exposure to weak incoherent light, such as that from light emitting diodes(LEDs), at room temperature(RT) in air. To minimize threshold of transmittance decrease(Fth) and obtain a large decrease in transmittance, two kinds of guest compounds dispersed in an amorphous steroidal host matrix were used. One guest compound is a metal complex used as a donor for photosensitization and the other is a deuterated aromatic deuterated carbon that behaves as an acceptor to allow efficient accumulation of the Ti state. The accumulation of long-lived RT triplet excitons of the acceptor with a large triplet-triplet absorption coefficient by photosensitization of the donor allowed a drastic decrease in the power threshold to be realized.
