Abstract

Molecular triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion often experiences drastic luminescence quenching in the presence of oxygen molecules, posing a significant constraint on practical use in aerated conditions. We present an oxygen-immune near-infrared triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion system utilizing non-organometallic cyanine sensitizers (λex = 808 nm) and chemically synthesized benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-b][1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-g]quinoxaline dyes with a defined dimer structure as annihilators (λem = 650 nm). This system exhibits ultrastable upconversion under continuous laser irradiance (>480 mins) or extended storage (>7 days) in aerated solutions. Mechanistic investigations reveal rapid triplet-triplet energy transfer from sensitizer to annihilators, accompanied by remarkably low triplet oxygen quenching efficiencies ( $${\eta }_{{{{\mbox{O}}}}_{2}}$$ η O 2
