TADF deep-blue OLED with color index approaching Rec.2020 standard blue gamut achieved by a boron-based D–A type molecular skeleton

The ultra-high definition (UHD) displays in the market require organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) to meet the Rec.2020 color gamut standard, while it is still challenging to exploit ultra-deep-blue emitters that satisfy such blue standard. Herein, by substituting tCz (3,6-di(tert-butyl)carbazole) donor unit on the robust BOC (8,8,12,12-tetramethyl-8,12-dihydro-4-oxa-3a2-boradibenzo[cd,mn]pyrene) acceptor unit with high structural rigidity and appropriate energy levels, a novel boron-based D–A type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) ultra-deep-blue emitter, namely, tCz-BOC, was readily designed and synthesized. Inheriting from its rigid organoboron core, the emitter presents ultra-deep-blue emission with narrow spectral full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 54 nm and high photoluminescence quantum yield up to 73.7%. Additionally, tCz-BOC can effectively harvest T1 excitons through high-lying T2 mediated reverse intersystem crossing process. As a consequence, the fabricated OLED based on tCz-BOC exhibits a satisfactory ultra-deep-blue emission with λEL of 424 nm, narrow emission bandwidth with FWHM of 47 nm, excellent maximum external quantum efficiency (EQEmax) of 13.9%, as well as the CIEy coordinate of 0.047, which is fairly close to the Rec.2020 blue color gamut.

Enhancing Reverse Intersystem Crossing of Multiple Resonance Type Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Emitter by Introducing Spatial Perturbation

AbstractFor multiple resonance (MR) type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters, electron cloud distributions of their π‐conjugated planes are crucial for determining their eventual performance. Currently, modulation attempts of MR‐TADF emitters are mainly inside the π‐conjugated planes. Possible out‐of‐plane interactions may also significantly impact the photophysical properties, but the exploration is quite limited. Here, a novel concept of using out‐of‐plane (e.g., π–π and lone pair‐π) interactions to introduce spatial perturbation (SPPT) to improve TADF performance is proposed. Two newly developed MR‐TADF emitters, namely, o‐BNPO and BNPO, which both consist of a popular MR framework, DtBuCzB, and diphenylphosphine oxide (DPPO), are compared in depth. In particular, for o‐BNPO, evident π–π interaction is observed between one side of the DtBuCzB π‐conjugated plane and a phenyl ring from DPPO, and lone pair‐π interaction with the oxygen atom from DPPO is noticed on the other side, resulting in significantly accelerated reverse intersystem crossing and better TADF without sacrificing narrowband emission features. Ultimately, in organic light‐emitting diodes with sensitizer‐free emitting layers, both emitters achieve similar narrowband emissions, while the o‐BNPO‐based device demonstrates a much higher external quantum efficiency of 36% and milder efficiency roll‐off.

TADF polymer enables over 20% EQE in solution‐processed green fluorescent OLEDs

AbstractSolution‐processed fluorescent organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) are believed to be favorable for low‐cost, large‐area, and flexible displays but still suffer from the limited external quantum efficiency (EQE) below 5%. Herein, we demonstrate the EQE breakthrough by introducing a donor–acceptor type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) polymer as the sensitizer for the typical green‐emitting fluorescent dopants. Benefitting from their matched energy alignment, the unwanted trap‐assisted recombination directly on fluorescent dopant is prevented to avoid the additional loss of triplet excitons. Indeed, triplet excitons are mainly formed on the polymeric TADF sensitizer via a Langevin recombination and then spin‐flipped to singlet excitons due to the good upconversion capability. Followed by an efficient Förster energy transfer, both singlet and triplet excitons can be harvested by fluorescent dopants, leading to a promising solution‐processed green hyperfluorescence with a record‐high EQE of 21.2% (72.2 cd/A, 59.7 lm/W) and Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage coordinates of (0.32, 0.59). The results clearly highlight the great potential of solution‐processed fluorescent OLEDs based on TADF polymers as the sensitizer.

Efficient red thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitters achieved through precise control of excited state energy levels.

The variety of highly efficient red/near-infrared (NIR) materials with thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) feature is extremely limited so far, and it is necessary to expand the candidate pool of excellent red/deep-red emitters. However, how to control the energy level alignment of the 1CT (singlet charge transfer) state and the 3LE (triplet local excitation) state to improve the emission efficiency of materials remains a challenge. Herein, based on our previously reported green fluorescent material 67dTPA-FQ, three new donor-acceptor type TADF materials (TQ-oMeOTPA, TsQ-oMeOTPA and SQ-oMeOTPA) were designed by introducing 4,4'-dimethoxy triphenylamine (MeOTPA) as the donor, and introduced S atoms on the acceptors to enhance the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and CT effects. The theoretical calculations showed that the newly introduced MeOTPA and S atom successfully enhanced the CT effect of the materials, not only shifting the luminescence peak to the deep red region but also effectively adjusting the energy level alignment of the excited state, accelerating the reverse intersystem crossing process. Finally, the organic light-emitting diodes based on SQ-oMeOTPA exhibit an external quantum efficiency of 19.1%, with an emission peak at 619 nm. This work not only expands the candidate inventory of red TADF materials, but also proves the feasibility of designing emitters by adjusting the excited state energy levels, greatly broadening the diversity of TADF emitters in design, and providing a powerful means for rapidly screening efficient emitters in the future.

Hydrogen bond boosts EQEs to 30+% for acridone-carbazole based deep-blue TADF emitters in simple-structure OLEDs

A group of D-A-D type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters were developed with 10-(pyridin-2-yl)acridin-9(10H)-one as acceptor and substituted carbazoles as donors. The design was focused on incorporating pyridyl to the 10-site nitrogen atom of acridin-9(10H)-one ring, which improved the reverse intersystem crossing rate constant kRISC from 103 s−1 to 105 s−1. More importantly, the linkage of pyridyl uniquely from its 2-position to acridin-9(10H)-one ring induced intramolecular hydrogen bond, which suppressed nonradiative transition rates by three to four orders of magnitude and universally increased the photoluminescence quantum yields from 54 % to nearly 100 %. In combination with the intrinsic high horizontal orientation ratios over 90 % of acridin-9(10H)-one based molecules, such pyridyl decoration boosted the external quantum efficiencies of simple-structure deep blue organic light-emitting diodes to 31–33 % with CIEx of 0.15 and CIEy of 0.09 ∼ 0.12, being double of that for hydrogen-bond-free parent emitter and representing the state-of-the-art efficiencies for the deep blue twisted intramolecular charge transfer type TADF materials with CIEy ≤ 0.10 so far. These TADF emitters are comparable with the prevailing multiresonance blue emitters in terms of distinctive efficiencies, but advantageous in much facile syntheses.

Conformational isomerization imparts low concentration dependence to multiple resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) emitters

Electroluminescent performance of multiple resonance (MR) type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters is highly dependent to the doping concentration due to the flat molecular structures, which is a major issue toward practical applications. Herein, an effective approach reducing the concentration dependence is proposed by introducing conformational isomerism for MR-TADF emitters. Two novel MR-TADF emitters were designed by decorating 10H-spiro[acridine-9,2′-adamantane] (a-DMAc) as a dual-conformational moiety onto the MR-core BNCz with different connection methods, which could induce different conformational distributions. In particular, the conformational isomerism of BNCz-aDMAC leads to a lower fraction of QE forms compared to the QE-dominant BNCz-PDMAC in amorphous doped film states with identical doping weights, thus enabling effective suppression of concentration quenching with barely harming color purity. Therefore, BNCz-aDMAC-based organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) demonstrate consistent and high efficiency over a wide doping range, maintaining a maximum external quantum efficiency of 23.8 % and a full width at half maximum of 31 nm even at a high doping ratio of 30 wt%.

Spiro[Acridine‐Indoloacridine] Donor Based TADF Emitter with Near‐Unity PLQY and Horizontal Dipole Orientation toward High‐Efficiency OLEDs with Low Efficiency Roll‐Off

AbstractDesigning thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters with excellent photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY), preferential horizontal emitting dipole orientation (𝛩//), and fascinating ability to rapidly utilize both singlet and triplet excitons for radiation is crucial for high‐performance organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) with both high efficiency and relieved efficiency roll‐off. Integrating these advantages into a single TADF emitter is a formidable challenge. In this work, a spiro[acridine‐indoloacridine]‐based rigid donor, named AIA, is designed to establish a cooperatively long‐axis extended and conjugation expanded donor–acceptor type TADF emitter (AIA‐TRZ). The proof‐of‐the‐concept emitter simultaneously achieves an excellent PLQY of 99%, a near‐unity 𝛩// of 99%, and balanced excited state dynamic parameters. OLEDs based on AIA‐TRZ realize remarkable performance with an emission peak at around 480 nm, including doping concentration insensitivity, a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQEmax) of 37.3%, extremely low efficiency roll‐off, and over 20% EQE even at 14000 cd m−2.

Regulation of Multiple Resonance Delayed Fluorescence via Through-Space Charge Transfer Excited State towards High-Efficiency and Stable Narrowband Electroluminescence.

B- and N-embedded multiple resonance (MR) type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters usually suffer from slow reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) process and aggregation-caused emission quenching. Here, we report the design of a sandwich structure by placing the B-N MR core between two electron-donating moieties, inducing through-space charge transfer (TSCT) states. The proper adjusting of the energy levels brings about a 10-fold higher RISC rate in comparison with the parent B-N molecule. In the meantime, a high photoluminescence quantum yield of 91 % and a good color purity were maintained. Organic light-emitting diodes based on the new MR emitter achieved a maximum external quantum efficiency of 31.7 % and small roll-offs at high brightness. High device efficiencies were also obtained for a wide range of doping concentrations of up to 20 wt % thanks to the steric shielding of the B-N core. A good operational stability with LT95 of 85.2 h has also been revealed. The dual steric and electronic effects resulting from the introduction of a TSCT state offer an effective molecular design to address the critical challenges of MR-TADF emitters.

A Multiple Resonance Emitter Integrating Para‐B‐π‐B′/Meta‐N‐π‐N Pattern via an Unembedded Organoboron Decoration for Both High‐Efficiency Solution‐ and Vacuum‐Processed OLEDs

AbstractMultiple resonance (MR)‐type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters have promising prospects for high‐color‐purity organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs), but they are seldom attempted in the fabrication of solution‐processed devices. In addition, another issue with MR‐TADF emitters is that their heteroatom patterns are very limited, hampering their diversity. Herein, a novel double boron (B)‐containing MR‐TADF paradigm that merges an unembedded organoboron unit and a B‐embedded π‐fused MR framework into one system, furnishing a unique para‐B‐π‐B′/meta‐N (nitrogen)‐π‐N molecular pattern is proposed. Based on this, a proof‐of‐concept molecule, BNB′‐1, is developed, simultaneously achieving a bright sharp emission peaking at 540 nm with a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of only 24.5 nm/98 meV, a nearly unity photoluminescence quantum yield and excellent organic solubility. A solution‐processed OLED using BNB′‐1 emitter delivers an impressive external quantum efficiency (EQE) as high as 36.2% with an emissive FWHM of only 30.0 nm/0.13 eV at ≈540 nm; both parameters set new records among the ever‐reported solution‐processed MR‐OLEDs. Moreover, BNB′‐1 also obtains a superhigh EQE of 40.3% in vacuum‐processed OLEDs, surpassing all MR‐OLEDs in the similar emission region. This work provides an interesting solution to develop high‐performance solution‐processable MR‐TADF emitters with diverse heteroatom patterns.

Combining Carbazole Building Blocks and ν‐DABNA Heteroatom Alignment for a Double Boron‐Embedded MR‐TADF Emitter with Improved Performance

AbstractBuilding blocks and heteroatom alignments are two determining factors in designing multiple resonance (MR)‐type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters. Carbazole‐fused MR emitters, represented by CzBN derivatives, and the heteroatom alignments of ν‐DABNA are two star series of MR‐TADF emitters that show impressive performances from the aspects of building blocks and heteroatom alignments, respectively. Herein, a novel CzBN analog, Π‐CzBN, featuring ν‐DABNA heteroatom alignment is developed via facile one‐shot lithium‐free borylation. Π‐CzBN exhibits superior photophysical properties with a photoluminescence quantum yield close to 100 % and narrowband sky blue emission with a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 16 nm/85 meV. It also gives efficient TADF properties with a small singlet‐triplet energy offset of 40 meV and a fast reverse intersystem crossing rate of 2.9×105 s−1. The optimized OLED using Π‐CzBN as the emitter achieves an exceptional external quantum efficiency of 39.3 % with a low efficiency roll‐off of 20 % at 1000 cd m−2 and a narrowband emission at 495 nm with FWHM of 21 nm/106 meV, making it one of the best reported devices based on MR emitters with comprehensive performance.

Multiple donor–acceptor design for highly luminescent and stable thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitters

A considerable variety of donor–acceptor (D–A) combinations offers the potential for realizing highly efficient thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials. Multiple D–A type compounds are one of the promising families of TADF materials in terms of stability as well as efficiencies. However, those emitters are always composed of carbazole-based donors despite a wide choice of moieties used in linearly linked single D–A molecules. Herein, we developed a multiple D–A type TADF compound with two distinct donor units of 9,10-dihydro-9,9-dimethylacridine (DMAC) and carbazole as the hetero-donor design. The new emitter exhibits high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) in various conditions including polar media blend and high concentrations. Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) showed a reasonably high external quantum efficiency (EQE). In addition, we revealed that the multiple-D–A type molecules showed better photostability than the single D–A type molecules, while the operational stability in OLEDs involves dominant other factors.

Fine Tuning of Donor‐Acceptor Structures in Fused‐Carbazole Containing Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Materials towards High‐Efficiency OLEDs

Comprehensive SummaryConjugated fused‐ring structures have attracted extensive attention due to their high molecular rigidity to restrain excited‐state relaxation and non‐radiative decay, and further to enhance the luminance efficiency for emissive materials. Herein, we develop a series of donor‐acceptor type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters by introducing fused‐ring 5H‐benzofuro[3,2‐c]carbazole (32BFCz) as electron donating unit. Through optimizing the numbers and structure of donor and acceptor moieties, three compounds named 32BFCzA, mCF3BFCzOXD and dCF3BFCzOXD are designed, which are composed by mono‐32BFCz/trifluoromethylpicolinonitrile, penta‐BFCz/3‐(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)‐1,3,4‐oxadiazol‐2‐yl)benzene and penta‐32BFCz/3,5‐bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)‐1,3,4‐oxadiazol‐2‐yl)benzene as donor/acceptor groups, respectively. They all exhibited green emission with peak value ranging from 532 to 540 nm. Through rationally tuning the donor/acceptor properties to reduce the distance between positive and negative charges, the ground state dipole moments decline from 8.93, 6.18 to 5.30 Debye, which further induced sequentially reduced singlet‐triplet energy splits (ΔESTs), increased photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs), enhanced reverse intersystem crossing rate (kRISCs) and diminished delayed fluorescence lifetime from 32BFCzA, mCF3BFCzOXD to dCF3BFCzOXD. Therefore, gradually increased external quantum efficiency (EQE) is accordingly achieved when employing them as emitters for TADF OLEDs. dCF3BFCzOXD with the mostly optimized donor/acceptor structures demonstrates the highest efficiency with maximum EQE to 21.4%. Our work provides guidelines on the design of high‐efficiency D‐A type TADF materials.

Polymerized Thermally Activated Delayed‐Fluorescence Small Molecules: Long‐Axis Polymerization Leads to a Nearly Concentration‐Independent Luminescence

AbstractNowadays numerous thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) polymers have been developed for PLEDs to realize high device performance and tunable emission colors. However, they often possess a strong concentration dependence on their luminescence including aggregation‐caused quenching (ACQ) and aggregation‐induced emission (AIE). Herein, we first report a nearly concentration‐independent TADF polymer based on the strategy of polymerized TADF small molecules. It is found that when a donor‐acceptor‐donor (D‐A‐D) type TADF small molecule is polymerized through its long‐axis direction, the triplet state is distributed along the polymeric backbone to effectively suppress the unwanted concentration quenching. Unlike the short‐axis one with an ACQ effect, the photoluminescent quantum yield (PLQY) of the resultant long‐axis polymer remains almost unchanged with the increasing doping concentration. Accordingly, a promising external quantum efficiency (EQE) up to 20 % is successfully achieved in a whole doping control window of 5–100 wt. %.

Multiple Resonance Organoboron OLED Emitters with High Efficiency and High Color Purity via Managing Long‐ and Short‐Range Charge‐Transfer Excitations

AbstractMultiple resonance (MR) type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters are very promising in the high‐resolution and high‐efficiency displays, due to their narrow and highly efficient optical emissions. Early MR‐TADF cores that show only short‐range charge‐transfer (CT) electronic excitations hardly afford ideal performances (e.g., show low efficiencies) in organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs). This work thus designs and synthesizes two MR‐TADF emitters (TCzBN‐BP and TCzBN‐FP), where the same MR core TCzBN is chemically modified by the acceptor fragments benzophenone/9‐fluorenone (BP/FP) to incorporate long‐range CT excitations in the two molecules. OLEDs exploiting TCzBN‐BP as emitter, in which short‐range CT excitation is dominant in the first singlet (S1) excited state, achieve a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 35.6% and a narrow emission bandwidth of 35 nm. In contrast, OLEDs exploiting TCzBN‐FP with an overloaded long‐range CT excitation in the S1 state exhibit a maximum EQE of 27.2% and a broadened emission bandwidth of 56 nm. This work not only shows the importance of careful management of long‐ and short‐range CT excitations, but also provides a new insight into the structure–property relationship in the MR‐TADF emitters, which thus promotes the design of more novel MR‐TADF emitters with high efficiencies and high color purity.

Deep red donor-acceptor type thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitter with o-carborane as an acceptor

o-Carborane is a strong acceptor having a three-dimensional structure of 10 borons and 2 carbons. Thus, this study explores the potential of using o-carborane as a new acceptor in designing donor-acceptor (D-A) type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials. Accordingly, a D-A type TADF emitter was designed using o-carborane as an acceptor and 9,9-dimethyl-9,10-dihydroacridine as a donor. The TADF emitter exhibited deep red emission with a peak wavelength of 642 nm as proven by delayed fluorescence in the transient photoluminescence analysis. Deep red emission with a peak wavelength of 651 nm was also observed in both doped and non-doped devices, as demonstrated using electroluminescence devices. Finally, the maximum external quantum efficiency of DMAC-oCB devices was found to be 5.2% in the doped device and 2.1% in the non-doped device.

Strategy for Modulating Dihedral Angle Distribution for Enhanced Anti-Kasha TADF Behavior

D–A type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) have attracted extensive research interest for their intense emission and high quantum yield in aggregated state. Herein, TADF molecules with vertical twisted structures are achieved by the methylation strategy which effectively separated the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO). With the increase of the dihedral angle, 18 times enhancement of the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) is realized in the aggregated state. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations demonstrate that these TADF molecules exhibit excellent photophysical properties in violation of Kasha’s rule: fluorescence originates from the higher energy electronic excited state (S2) rather than the S1 state.

Hyperbranched Conjugated Polymer with Multiple Charge Transfer Enables High-Efficiency Nondoped Red Electroluminescence with Low Driving Voltage

Conjugated polymers featuring thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) attract tremendous attention in both academic and industry communities due to their easy solution processing for fabricating large-area and low-cost high-performance polymer light-emitting diodes (PLEDs). However, current nondoped solution-processed PLEDs frequently encounter significant efficiency roll-offs and unreasonably high operating voltages at high brightness, especially for red-emitting polymers. Herein, we design hyperbranched conjugated polymers (HCPs) with D-A-D type TADF characteristics for high-performance red-emitting PLEDs. Multiple intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) channels induced by quasi-equivalent donors of the TADF core strongly boost the reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) process and singlet excitons radiative transition. Coupling with the efficient energy transfer process generated by structure advantages of HCPs, the strongly electron-withdrawing oxygen atoms located on the TADF cores further accelerate hole transportation from the host chains to the TADF cores. Under a rational regulation of the TADF core ratio, the related nondoped red-emitting device performs an outstanding performance with an EQEmax of 8.39% and exhibits no roll-off while the luminance is less than 100 cd/m2 and only 3.3% decrease at 500 cd/m2. Simultaneously, the EQE can maintain 7.4% under 1000 cd/m2. Furthermore, the corresponding nondoped device exhibits a low turn-on voltage of around 2.5 V and achieves a luminance of 500 cd/m2 at 3.5 V and even 1000 cd/m2 at 3.9 V. To our knowledge, this is the best performance among all nondoped red PLEDs with high brightness obtained at low operating voltage.
