Abstract:
Compared with the classical boron/nitrogen (B/N) doped ones, multiple-resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) emitters embedded with B-N covalent bond behave a significantly blue-shifted narrowband TADF, and thus show a greater potential in ultrapure blue organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). As a proof of concept, herein a peripheral substitution engineering is demonstrated based on such a B‒N embedded parent core. The simple approach is found to ensure easy synthesis via a one-pot lithium-free borylation-annulation, manipulate the excited states through different electronic coupling between core and substituent, and introduce the steric hindrance to minimize the unwanted spectral broadening. Impressively, ultrapure blue OLEDs are realized to give a high external quantum efficiency of 20.3% together with Commission Internationale de l'Éclairage coordinates of (0.152, 0.046). The performance is well competent with those of B/N doped MR-TADF emitters, clearly highlighting that the B‒N embedded framework is a novel promising paradigm towards efficient BT.2020 blue standard.

03:02Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
01:16Biasing of P-N Junction
In equilibrium, no external voltage is applied across the p-n junction. The depletion region is formed at the junction interface due to the diffusion of carriers, which leaves behind charged dopants, acceptors on the p-side, and donors on the n-side. These immobile charges create an electric field that prevents further diffusion of carriers. The related energy band...

In the PNP configuration, the emitter is heavily doped with positive charge carriers (holes), while the base is lightly doped with negative carriers (electrons). This setup allows for a forward bias across the emitter-base junction,...
