Abstract Organic ultralong room‐temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials have promising applications in anti‐counterfeiting. To improve the encryption level, the exploration of organic materials with tunable solid‐state long persistent luminescence is in urgent need. Herein, a series of organic ultralong RTP polymeric systems are prepared by doping versatile indolocarbazole isomers into the poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) matrix. Notably, the doping film 11,12‐ICz@PVA exhibits excellent RTP property with an ultralong lifetime of 2.04 s and a high phosphorescence quantum yield of 44.1%. Theoretical calculations reveal that this excellent RTP property can be attributed to the strong electrostatic attraction resulting from the synergistic double hydrogen‐bond between the isomer 11,12‐ICz and PVA matrix. More impressively, color‐tunable and time‐dependent long persistent luminescence is successfully achieved through efficient phosphorescence energy transfer between the indolocarbazole isomers with ultralong blue RTP emissions and commercially available fluorescent dyes with emission colors ranging from green to red doped into the PVA matrix. Besides, diversified encryption patterns are fabricated to demonstrate the promising applications of these water‐soluble doping PVA systems with tunable solid‐state persistent luminescence in advanced anti‐counterfeiting technology.
