Magnetic-Induced Luminescence: Magnetic-Induced Luminescence from Flexible Composite Laminates by Coupling Magnetic Field to Piezophotonic Effect (Adv. Mater. 30/2015)

Adv Mater. 2015 Aug;27(30):4487. doi: 10.1002/adma.201570203.

Abstract

On page 4488, J. Hao and co-workers propose a practical approach to design and synthesize flexible polymer composites composed of a magnetic actuator and phosphor. Magnetic-induced luminescence (MIL) is shown via strain-mediated coupling, which can be modulated under a time-varying low magnetic field at room temperature. A magnetically driven light-emission pattern and a white-light source are demonstrated.
