Abstract
Combining luminophores in ratios that compensate for energy transfer provides a readily selectable range of new emission colours for gel-based electrochemiluminescence devices (ECLDs). A novel blue ECLD luminophore is also introduced and shown to enhance the intensity of the conventional green emitter through a mixed annihilation ECL mechanism. Peak-to-peak voltages were minimised using asymmetric potential pulse sequences, which increased the longevity of the ECLD emission.
