Abstract:
Multi-resonance induced by boron and nitrogen atoms in opposite resonance positions endows a thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) emitter with a strikingly small full width at half maximum of only 26 nm and excellent photoluminescence quantum yield of up to 97.48 %. The introduction of a carbazole unit in the para position of the B-substituted phenyl-ring can significantly boost up the resonance effect without compromising the color fidelity, subsequently enhancing the performances of the corresponding pure blue TADF-OLED, with an outstanding external quantum efficiency (EQE) up to 32.1 % and low efficiency roll-off, making it one of the best TADF-OLEDs in the blue region to date. Furthermore, utilizing this material as host for a yellow phosphorescent emitter, the device also shows a significantly reduced turn-on voltage of 3.2 V and an EQEmax of 22.2 %.
