Research Overview
研究概述
Tao Wang’s group works at the interface of molecular design and photophysics to develop organic luminescent materials and to explore diverse applications. The main question driving the lab is how to generate and control long-lived excited states at room temperature using purely organic compounds, so that light can be emitted efficiently and on demand. Each material we target is chosen both for what it can do and for the scientific problem it raises, which keeps synthesis, spectroscopy, and mechanistic work closely connected. Building on photochemistry and on supramolecular and polymer chemistry, the group develops room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) and thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials, and applies them to OLEDs, afterglow sensing, scintillators, and chemical and biological probes.
王涛课题组立足于分子设计与光物理交叉领域，致力于有机发光材料开发及多样化应用探索。团队关注的核心问题是：如何用纯有机化合物在室温下产生并调控长寿命激发态，从而实现高效、可控的发光。我们所研究的每一个目标材料，既看重它的功能，也关注它背后的科学问题，始终将合成化学、光谱表征与机理研究紧密结合。基于光化学、超分子化学与高分子化学的理论与方法，系统开展了室温磷光（RTP）与热激活延迟荧光（TADF）材料的研究，并将其拓展至 OLED、余辉传感、闪烁体以及化学与生物探针等应用领域。
