  • Description: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Dual‐fluorescent–phosphorescent compounds have attracted increasing attention in various fields, such as bio‐imaging, data protection/encryption, ratiometric luminescence sensing, and white‐light emission. Conventional dual‐emissive compounds contain a phosphorescent organometallic complex of a precious metal, such as iridium or platinum. However, the use of precious metals in organic materials has several drawbacks. This Minireview focuses on precious‐metal‐free organic light‐emitting materials that exhibit dual fluorescence and phosphorescence emission in the solid state at room temperature to produce bimodal steady‐state emission spectra. The dual emitters presented herein are categorized into the following six compound classes: (1) difluoroboron diaroylmethanes, (2) diarylketones, (3) diarylsulfones, (4) triazines and pyrimidines, (5) fused phenazines, and (6) <jats:italic>N</jats:italic>‐arylcarbazoles.</jats:p>
