High solid‐state quantum efficiency ( Φ PL ≈ 0.90) materials with attractive properties for OLED and laser applications are reported. Our results show that long fluorene chain‐lengths are not a necessary prerequisite for efficient solid‐state luminescence. Isolated‐molecule‐like solid‐state emission, stable pure‐deep‐blue electroluminescence, and low‐threshold lasing ( λ laser = 437 nm, E th laser ≈ 0.4 nJ/pulse, 1.3 µJ cm −2 ) are demonstrated.
