Abstract

Abstract : This cover image shows optical amplification at 637 nm that is achieved in polymer waveguides doped with thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) molecules. Under excitation of low‐cost light‐emitting diodes, the molecules realize the process of converting blue‐violet light into red light, which depends on the continuous absorption band of the material and reverse intersystem crossing process. The results, presented by Dan Zhang, Guohua Xie, and co‐workers in article number 2200205, open new avenues for the application of TADF materials in photonic integrated chips.
