Abstract
Blue-emitting thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) polymers are still in demand for high-efficiency display materials. Through-space charge transfer (TSCT) strategy is promising for keeping color purity of blue-emitting polymers with nonconjugated main chains. It is, however, hard to synthesize copolymers with well-dispersed donors or acceptors utilizing traditional polyethylene backbones via radical polymerization. Herein, two series of blue-emitting polysiloxane with TADF properties, random and order-controlled copolysiloxanes, are successfully designed and synthesized and their photophysical properties are investigated and compared in detail. All of them display short prompt and delay fluorescence lifetimes and a very fast reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) rate of 107 s-1 . Compared with random copolysiloxanes, acceptors are well separated by donors for order-controlled copolysiloxanes, which exhibit the faster RISC processes and the higher photoluminescence quantum yield. Therefore, the order-controlled architecture provides a guide for improving light-emitting efficiency of TSCT-type TADF polymers.
