About

Zhongfu An is a leading figure in the field of organic optoelectronics, with a primary focus on purely organic phosphorescent materials and their dynamic optical properties. His research centers on developing smart luminescent systems that respond to external stimuli, particularly through mechanoluminescence and photoactivated phosphorescence. An’s major contributions include pioneering a universal strategy using stereo-hindrance engineering to achieve photoactivated ultralong organic phosphorescence, a breakthrough that enables tunable persistent luminescence for mimicking synaptic plasticity in intelligent optoelectronics. His 2023 paper on this topic has garnered 28 citations, highlighting its impact on the field. Additionally, An has advanced high-efficiency organic mechanophosphorescence using phenoselenazine phosphors, achieving unprecedented brightness and luminescence efficiency for applications in pressure sensing and material damage inspection. His 2025 work on this subject, with 12 citations, demonstrates continued innovation in addressing the long-standing challenge of low efficiency in mechanophosphorescent materials. Through these achievements, An has established himself as a key innovator in stimuli-responsive organic phosphors, opening new avenues for smart materials in sensing, bioimaging, and next-generation optoelectronic devices.
