Dibenzoa,jphenazine-cored donor-acceptor-donor compounds as green-to-red/NIR thermally activated delayed fluorescence organic light emitters.

摘要

A new family of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters based on U-shaped D-A-D architecture with a novel accepting unit has been developed. All investigated compounds have small singlet-triplet energy splitting (E-ST) ranging from 0.02 to 0.20eV and showed efficient TADF properties. The lowest triplet state of the acceptor unit plays the key role in the TADF mechanism. OLEDs fabricated with these TADF emitters achieved excellent efficiencies up to 16% external quantum efficiency (EQE).
