Abstract

A new concept of phosphorescence switch and logic gate has been proposed based on iridium(iii) complexes containing triarylboron moieties. The phosphorescence of the complexes can be quenched by F- through the formation of B-F bonds. Interestingly, the B-F bonds can be ruptured under an electric field, restoring the phosphorescence.
