Sensitizer-free triplet-triplet annihilation-based nonlinear photochromic reactions (IMAGE) Ritsumeikan University Caption The novel design approach proposed in the study using a perylene-substituted rhodamine spirolactam can pave the way for the development of simple photofunctional materials with nonlinear behavior and long-wavelength responsivity and that efficiently utilize low-energy light.
