| Résumé: | © 2024 Wiley‐VCH GmbH. Scintillators have attracted significant attention due to their wide-ranging applications in both industrial and medical fields. However, one of the ongoing challenges is the efficient utilization of triplet excitons to achieve high radioluminescence efficiency. Here, a series of purely organic phosphors is presented for X-ray scintillation, employing a combined rigid and flexible host-guest doping strategy. The doped crystals exhibit a remarkable maximum phosphorescence efficiency of 99.4% under UV excitation. Furthermore, upon X-ray irradiation, the radioluminescence intensities of the doped phosphors are markedly higher compared to their single-component crystal counterparts. Through systematic investigations, it is demonstrated the crucial role of confining isolated chromophores in enhancing scintillation efficiency. Additionally, a transparent scintillator screen fabricated with the doped phosphor exhibits excellent X-ray imaging performance, achieving a high spatial resolution of 18.0 lp mm-1. This work not only offers valuable insights into suppressing non-radiative transitions of triplet excitons during scintillation but also opens a new avenue for designing highly efficient purely organic phosphorescent scintillators |
