Abstract
Herein, we report an example of red-green-blue full-color magnetic circularly polarized luminescence (MCPL) from three inorganic luminophores in their solid powder form and upon embedding in poly(methyl methacrylate) films; they were examined in the photoexcited state under the Faraday geometry with a 1.6 T permanent magnet in the absence of chiral chemical influences. The MCPL signs associated with gMCPL = ±6 × 10−3 were controllable solely by changing north-up and south-up geometries. This letter reports an example of red-green-blue color magnetic circularly polarized luminescence (MCPL) on the order of |gMCPL| < 7 × 10−3 from three inorganic luminophores in their powder form and embedded in PMMA films under the Faraday geometry with a 1.6 Tesla permanent magnet. In the absence of chiral chemical influences, the MCPL signs were controllable by the direction of north-up and south-up geometry.
