In recent years, organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays have gradually become familiar to the public with the popularity of smartphones, and the research of organic fluorescent materials used to prepare OLED light-emitting layers has attracted the attention of more researchers. In this paper, several milestone discoveries in the field of organic fluorescence are reviewed in the chronological order, and the development of organic fluorescent materials and some related concepts are also introduced.
- Fluorescence,
- Phosphorescence,
- Organic fluorescent materials,
- Fluorescent groups,
- Aggregation-induced emission
