Abstract

Star‐shaped organic semiconductors with boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) cores are color‐conversion materials for blue LED‐based visible light communications. The difference between 0 and 1 bits is resolved in colour‐converted data links at 100 Mb s−1. The BODIPY modulation bandwidth is eight times higher than that measured using conventional phosphor color converters.
