Single-component white-emitting phosphors are highly promising to simplify the fabrication of optically pumped white light-emitting diodes. To achieve white emission, precise control of the excited state dynamics is required for a single-component system to generate emissions with different energies in the steady state. Here, we report a new class of white phosphors based on manganese (Mn)-doped one-dimensional (1D) organic lead bromide perovskites. The bright white emission is the combination of broadband blue emission from the self-trapped excited states of the 1D perovskites and red emission from the doped Mn2+ ions. Because of the indirect nature of the self-trapped excited states in 1D perovskites, there is no energy transfer from these states to the Mn2+ ions, resulting in an efficient dual emission. As compared to the pristine 1D perovskites with bluish-white emission, these Mn-doped 1D perovskites exhibit much higher color rendering index of up to 87 and photoluminescence quantum efficiency of up to 28%.
