Luminescent manganese(II) complexes: Synthesis, properties and optoelectronic applications

Luminescent manganese(II) complexes have been extensively studied owing to their excellent photophysical properties. The facile synthesis and tunable optoelectronic performance of manganese(II) complexes render them attractive candidates for developing low-cost organic light-emitting diodes, information storage and security, as well as opto-electronic switches. In this review, we focus on the material category and synthesis, luminesDiverse optoelectronic applications of luminescent manganese complex are cence process, and various luminescent properties of manganese(II) complexes, together with their applications in functional devices. Finally, the challenge and outlook on the future research for manganese(II) complexes are given.
