Abstract

The demand for fluorescent organic dyes across a broad range of applications has led to investigation into tuneable emission dyes. The tuneable nature of these dyes makes them desirable for applications in a variety of fields, including organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), optical sensing devices, and fluorescence imaging. In recent investigations, there have only been a handful of mechanisms used to tune emission. Herein, we present four novel perylene-acene dyads that undergo solvent tuneable emission, and propose a novel mechanism for this tuneability based on the presence of a charge transfer state. These dyes were shown to reach photoluminescence quantum efficiencies (PLQEs) as high as 45%, depending on the solvent, showing the ability for this mechanism to be used to access higher PLQE tuneable emission.
