Abstract:
Current research on organic light emitters which utilize multiple resonance-induced thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) materials is gaining significant interest because of the materials' ability to efficiently generate color-pure blue emission. However, the underlying reasons for high color purity remain unclear. It is shown here that these emitters share a common electronic basis, which is deduced from resonance structure considerations following Clar's rule, and which is termed as "poly-heteroaromatic omni-delocalization" (PHOD). The simple and clear design rules derived from the PHOD concept allow extending the known chemical space by new structural motifs. Based on PHOD, a set of novel high-efficiency color-pure emitters with brilliant deep-blue hue is specifically designed.
