Blue Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence from a Biphenyl Difluoroboron ?-Diketonate.

ABSTRACT: Optical properties of biphenyl difluoroboron ?-diketonates were studied in poly(lactic acid) (PLA) blends. Increased conjugation lowered the emission energy, decreased the singlet-triplet energy gap and yielded blue thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF). The properties of these biphenyl dyes may inform organic light emitting diode (OLED) and bioimaging agent design.

High-Efficiency Diphenylpyrimidine Derivatives Blue Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Organic Light-Emitting Diodes.

Project description:Organic light-emitting diodes with thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitter have been developed with highly twisted donor-acceptor configurations and color-pure blue emitters. Synthesized 4-(4-(4,6-diphenylpyrimidin-2-yl)phenyl)-10H-spiro[acridine-9,9'-fluorene] (4,6-PhPMAF) doped device with spiroacridine as a donor unit and diphenylpyrimidine as acceptor exhibits the device characteristics such as the luminescence, external quantum efficiencies, current efficiencies, and power efficiencies corresponding to 213 cd/m2, 2.95%, 3.27 cd/A, and 2.94 lm/W with Commission International de l'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.15, 0.11) in 4,6-PhPMAF-doped DPEPO emitter. The reported 10-(4-(2,6-diphenylpyrimidin-4-yl)phenyl)-10H-spiro[acridine-9,9'-fluorene] (2,6-PhPMAF) doped device exhibit high device performance with 1,445 cd/m2, 12.38%, 19.6 cd/A, and 15.4 lm/W, which might be originated from increased internal quantum efficiency by up-converted triplet excitons to the singlet state with relatively smaller ?E ST of 0.17 eV and higher reverse intersystem crossing rate (k RISC) of 1.0 ×108/s in 2,6-PhPMAF than 0.27 eV and 3.9 ×107/s in 4,6-PhPMAF. Despite low performance of 4,6-PhPMAF doped device, synthesized 4,6-PhPMAF has better color purity as a deep-blue emission with y axis (0.11) than reported 2,6-PhPMAF with y axis (0.19) in CIE coordinate. The synthesized 4,6-PhPMAF has higher thermal stability of any transition up to 300°C and decomposition temperature with only 5% weight loss in 400°C than reported 2,6-PhPMAF. The maximum photoluminescence emission of 4,6-PhPMAF in various solvents appeared at 438 nm, which has blue shift about 20 nm than that of 2,6-PhPMAF, which contributes deep-blue emission in synthesized 4,6-PhPMAF.

Teaching an Old Poly(arylene ether) New Tricks: Efficient Blue Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence.

Project description:Polymer light-emitting diodes are attractive for optoelectronic applications owing to their brightness and ease of processing. However, often metals have to be inserted to increase the luminescence efficiency, and producing blue emitters is a challenge. Here we present a strategy to make blue thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) polymers by directly embedding a small molecular blue TADF emitter into a poly(aryl ether) (PAE) backbone. Thanks to the oxygen-induced negligible electronic communication between neighboring TADF fragments, its corresponding blue delayed fluorescence can be inherited by the developed polymers. These polymers are free from metal catalyst contamination and show improved thermal stability. Through device optimization, a current efficiency of 29.7 cd/A (21.2 lm/W, 13.2%) is realized together with Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage coordinates of (0.18, 0.32). The value is competitive with blue phosphorescent polymers, highlighting the importance of the PAE backbone in achieving high-performance blue delayed fluorescence at a macromolecular level.

Pyrazine-Based Blue Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Materials: Combine Small Singlet-Triplet Splitting With Large Fluorescence Rate.

Project description:Metal-free thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters have emerged as promising candidate materials for highly efficient and low-cost organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Here, a novel acceptor 2-cyanopyrazine is selected for the construction of blue TADF molecules via computer-assisted molecular design. Both theoretical prediction and experimental photophysical data indicate a small S1-T1 energy gap (ΔE ST) and a relative large fluorescence rate (k F) in an o-phenylene-bridged 2-cyanopyrazine/3,6-di-tert-butylcarbazole compound (TCzPZCN). The k F value of 3.7 × 107 s-1 observed in a TCzPZCN doped film is among the highest in the TADF emitters with a ΔE ST smaller than 0.1 eV. Blue TADF emission is observed in a TCzPZCN doped film with a short TADF lifetime of 1.9 μs. The OLEDs using TCzPZCN as emitter exhibit a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 7.6% with low-efficiency roll-off. A sky-blue device containing a derivative of TCzPZCN achieves an improved EQE maximum of 12.2% by suppressing the non-radiative decay at T1.

Optimizing the Intralayer and Interlayer Compatibility for High-Efficiency Blue Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Diodes.

Project description:A series of phosphine oxide hosts, 4,6-bis(diphenylphosphoryl) dibenzothiophene (DBTDPO) and 4- diphenylphosphoryldibenzothiophene (DBTSPO), and electron transporting materials (ETM), 2-(diphenylphosphoryl)dibenzothiophene sulfone (2DBSOSPO), 3-(diphenylphosphoryl)dibenzothiophene sulfone (3DBSOSPO) and 4-(diphenylphosphoryl)dibenzothiophene sulfone (4DBSOSPO) were developed to support blue thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) devices with high performance through optimizing intralayer and interlayer compatibility of emissive layers. On the basis of the triplet energy of ~3.0?eV for the hosts and ETMs, excitons can be effectively confined on DMAC-DPS. Compared to DBTSPO, DBTDPO can support the excellent distribution uniformity to blue TADF dye bis[4-(9,9-dimethyl-9,10-dihydroacridine) phenyl] sulfone (DMAC-DPS), owing to their configuration similarity; while 3DBSOSPO and 4DBSOSPO are superior in compatibility with the hosts due to the similar molecular polarity or configuration. Through adjusting the molecular configuration, the electrical performance of ETMs can be feasibly tuned, including the excellent electron mobility (?e) by the order of 10(-3)?cm(2)?V(-1)?s(-1). As the result, DBTDPO and 4DBSOSPO endowed their four-layer blue TADF devices with the maximum current efficiency of 33.5?cd A(-1) and the maximum external quantum efficiency more than 17%, which are impressive among the best blue TADF devices. It is showed that intralayer compatibility determines the maximum efficiencies, while interlayer compatibility influences efficiency stability.

Narrowband Deep-Blue Multi-Resonance Induced Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence: Insights from the Theoretical Molecular Design.

Project description:Multi-resonance thermal activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) has been promising with large oscillator strength and narrow full width at half maxima of luminescence, overcoming the compromise of emission intensity and energy criteria of traditional charge transfer TADF frameworks. However, there are still limited theoretical investigations on the excitation mechanism and systematic molecular manipulation of MR-TADF structures. We systematically study the highly localized excitation (LE) characteristics based on typical blue boron-nitrogen (BN) MR-TADF emitters and prove the potential triangular core with theoretical approaches. A design strategy by extending the planar π-conjugate core structure is proposed to enhance the multiple resonance effects. Moreover, several substituted groups are introduced to the designed core, achieving color-tunable functions with relatively small energy split and strong oscillator strength simultaneously. This work provides a theoretical direction for molecular design strategy and a series of potential candidates for highly efficient BN MR-TADF emitters.

Mechanofluorochromism of a Difluoroboron-β-Diketonate Derivative at the Nanoscale.

Project description:Mechanofluorochromic nanoparticles have been prepared from a difluoroboron β-diketonate complex, and their behavior has been investigated at the nanoscale using atomic force microscopy (AFM) coupled with fluorescence spectroscopy. Two types of nanoparticles were observed, associated with green and yellow emission, reflecting the crystalline polymorphism of this material. While the green-emitting nanoparticles are mechanically insensitive under our conditions, the yellow-emitting ones display a marked hypsochromic shift upon shearing with the AFM tip. At the macroscopic level, the grinding of the bulk material is attributed to the amorphization of the crystalline powder. On the contrary, the marked mechanofluorochromism observed at the nanoscale is attributed to a crystal-to-crystal phase transition. This specific behavior at the nanolevel is extremely promising for applications such as nanoprobes of local mechanical stress.

An Alternative Host Material for Long-Lifespan Blue Organic Light-Emitting Diodes Using Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence.

Project description:It has been challenging to find stable blue organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) that rely on thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF). Lack of stable host materials well-fitted to the TADF emitters is one of the critical reasons. The most popular host for blue TADF, bis[2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl] ether oxide (DPEPO), leads to unrealistically high maximum external quantum efficiency. DPEPO is however an unstable material and has a poor charge transporting ability, which in turn induces an intrinsic short OLED operating lifespan. Here, an alternative host material is introduced which educes the potential efficiency and device lifespan of given TADF emitters with the appropriateness of replacing the most popular host material, DPEPO, in developing blue TADF emitters. It simultaneously provides much longer device lifespan and higher external quantum efficiency at a practical brightness due to its high material stability and electron-transport-type character well-fitted for hole-transport-type TADF emitters.

Blue organic light-emitting diodes realizing external quantum efficiency over 25% using thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitters.

Project description:Improving the performance of blue organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) is needed for full-colour flat-panel displays and solid-state lighting sources. The use of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) is a promising approach to efficient blue electroluminescence. However, the difficulty of developing efficient blue TADF emitters lies in finding a molecular structure that simultaneously incorporates (i) a small energy difference between the lowest excited singlet state (S1) and the lowest triplet state (T1), ΔE ST, (ii) a large oscillator strength, f, between S1 and the ground state (S0), and (iii) S1 energy sufficiently high for blue emission. In this study, we develop TADF emitters named CCX-I and CCX-II satisfying the above requirements. They show blue photoluminescence and high triplet-to-singlet up-conversion yield. In addition, their transition dipole moments are horizontally oriented, resulting in further increase of their electroluminescence efficiency. Using CCX-II as an emitting dopant, we achieve a blue OLED showing a high external quantum efficiency of 25.9%, which is one of the highest EQEs in blue OLEDs reported previously.

Highly Efficient Blue Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Emitters Based on Multi-Donor Modified Oxygen-Bridged Boron Acceptor.

Project description:The employment of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters is one of the most promising ways to realize the external quantum efficiency (EQE) of over 25% for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). In addition, the TADF emitter based on oxygen-bridged boron (BO) fragment can maintain blue emission with high color purity. Herein, we constructed two blue TADF emitters, 3TBO and 5TBO, for OLEDs application. Both emitters consist of three donors linked at the oxygen-bridged boron acceptor. OLED devices based on 3TBO and 5TBO exhibited both high excellent device efficiency and high color purity with a maximum EQE; full-width at half-maximum (FWHM); and CIE coordinates of 17.3%, 47 nm, (0.120, 0.294), and 26.2%, 57 nm, (0.125, 0.275), respectively.

Persistent Dimer Emission in Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Materials.

Project description:We expose significant changes in the emission color of carbazole-based thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters that arise from the presence of persistent dimer states in thin films and organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Direct photoexcitation of this dimer state in 1,2,3,5-tetrakis(carbazol-9-yl)-4,6-dicyanobenzene (4CzIPN) reveals the significant influence of dimer species on the color purity of its photoluminescence and electroluminescence. The dimer species is sensitive to the sample preparation method, and its enduring presence contributes to the widely reported concentration-mediated red shift in the photoluminescence and electroluminescence of evaporated thin films. This discovery has implications on the usability of these, and similar, molecules for OLEDs and explains disparate electroluminescence spectra presented in the literature for these compounds. The dimerization-controlled changes observed in the TADF process and photoluminescence efficiency mean that careful consideration of dimer states is imperative in the design of future TADF emitters and the interpretation of previously reported studies of carbazole-based TADF materials.
