Top-emitting thermally activated delayed fluorescence organic light-emitting devices with weak light-matter coupling.

ABSTRACT: Resonance interaction between a molecular transition and a confined electromagnetic field can lead to weak or strong light-matter coupling. Considering the substantial exciton-phonon coupling in thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials, it is thus interesting to explore whether weak light-matter coupling can be used to redistribute optical density of states and to change the rate of radiative decay. Here, we demonstrate that the emission distribution of TADF emitters can be reshaped and narrowed in a top-emitting organic light-emitting device (OLED) with a weakly coupled microcavity. The Purcell effect of weak microcavity is found to be different for TADF emitters with different molecular orientations. We demonstrate that radiative rates of the TADF emitters with vertical orientation can be substantial increased in weakly coupled organic microcavity. These observations can enhance external quantum efficiencies, reduce efficiency roll-off, and improve color-purities of TADF OLEDs, especially for emitters without highly horizontal orientation.

Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Host for High Performance Organic Light-Emitting Diodes.

Project description:Thermally activated delayed florescence (TADF) materials can be an efficient host in organic LED (OLED). It is because it is possible to couple energetically the emission energy level of a dopant to the energy levels in the TADF material. In this work fluorescent emitters 2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1,1,7,7,-tetramethyl-1H,5 H,11H-10-(2-benzothiazolyl)quinolizino-9,9a,1gh coumarin (c545t) and 5,6,11,12-tetraphenyltetracene (rubrene) were used as dopants in a blended TADF host; tris(4-carbazoyl-9-ylphenyl)amine (TCTA) with 2,4,6-tris(3'-(pyridin-3-yl)biphenyl-3-yl)-1,3,5-triazine (Tm3PyBPZ). The blended TADF host has an energy difference between the singlet and triplet excited states (ΔEST) around 27 meV with the yield of reverse intersystem crossing (ФRISC) nearly 100%. This high ФRISC yield enhances the OLED performance with the c545t doped OLED having 11.9% external quantum efficiency and 10% for the rubrene doped OLED.

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.

Polymer Featuring Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence as Emitter in Light-Emitting Electrochemical Cells.

Project description:Semiconducting polymers that feature thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) can deliver a much desired combination of high-efficiency and metal-free electroluminescence and cost-efficient solution-based fabrication. A TADF polymer is thus a very good fit for the emitting compound in light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) because the commonly employed air-stabile and few-layer LEC architecture is well suited for such solution-based fabrication. Herein we report on the first LEC device based on a TADF polymer as the emitting species, which delivers a luminance of 96 cd m-2 at 4 V and a current efficacy of 1.4 cd A-1 and >600 cd m-2 at 6 V, which is competitive with the performance of multilayer organic light-emitting diodes based on the same TADF polymer. We further utilize the established sensitivity of the emission of the TADF polymer to its environment to draw conclusions on the exciton populations in host-guest and host-free TADF LEC devices.

Isomeric thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitters for highly efficient organic light-emitting diodes.

Project description:The isomeric strategy is an important design concept in molecular design that has a non-negligible influence on molecular properties. Herein, two isomeric thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters (NTPZ and TNPZ) are constructed with the same skeleton consisting of an electron donor and electron acceptor but different connection sites. Systematic investigations show that NTPZ exhibits a small energy gap, large up-conversion efficiency, low non-radiative decay, and high photoluminescence quantum yield. Further theoretical simulations reveal that the excited molecular vibrations play a key role in regulating the non-radiative decays of the isomers. Therefore, an NTPZ based OLED achieves better electroluminescence performances, such as a higher external quantum efficiency of 27.5% compared to a TNPZ based OLED (18.3%). This isomeric strategy not only provides an opportunity to deeply understand the relationship between substituent locations and molecular properties, but also affords a simple and effective strategy to enrich TADF materials.

Highly efficient carbazolylgold(iii) dendrimers based on thermally activated delayed fluorescence and their application in solution-processed organic light-emitting devices.

Project description:A new class of C^C^N ligand-containing carbazolylgold(iii) dendrimers has been designed and synthesized. High photoluminescence quantum yields of up to 82% in solid-state thin films and large radiative decay rate constants in the order of 105 s-1 are observed. These gold(iii) dendrimers are found to exhibit thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF), as supported by variable-temperature emission spectroscopy, time-resolved photoluminescence decay and computational studies. Solution-processed organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) based on these gold(iii) dendrimers have been fabricated, which exhibit a maximum current efficiency of 52.6 cd A-1, maximum external quantum efficiency of 15.8% and high power efficiency of 41.3 lm W-1. The operational stability of these OLEDs has also been recorded, with the devices based on zero- and second-generation dendrimers showing maximum half-lifetimes of 1305 and 322 h at 100 cd m-2, respectively, representing the first demonstration of operationally stable solution-processed OLEDs based on gold(iii) dendrimers.

Probe exciplex structure of highly efficient thermally activated delayed fluorescence organic light emitting diodes.

Project description:The lack of structural information impeded the access of efficient luminescence for the exciplex type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF). We report here the pump-probe Step-Scan Fourier transform infrared spectra of exciplex composed of a carbazole-based electron donor (CN-Cz2) and 1,3,5-triazine-based electron acceptor (PO-T2T) codeposited as the solid film that gives intermolecular charge transfer (CT), TADF, and record-high exciplex type cyan organic light emitting diodes (external quantum efficiency: 16%). The transient infrared spectral assignment to the CT state is unambiguous due to its distinction from the local excited state of either the donor or the acceptor chromophore. Importantly, a broad absorption band centered at ~2060 cm-1 was observed and assigned to a polaron-pair absorption. Time-resolved kinetics lead us to conclude that CT excited states relax to a ground-state intermediate with a time constant of ~3 µs, followed by a structural relaxation to the original CN-Cz2:PO-T2T configuration within ~14 µs.

Thermally activated delayed fluorescence with 7% external quantum efficiency from a light-emitting electrochemical cell.

Project description:We report on light-emitting electrochemical cells, comprising a solution-processed single-layer active material and air-stabile electrodes, that exhibit efficient and bright thermally activated delayed fluorescence. Our optimized devices delivers a luminance of 120 cd m-2 at an external quantum efficiency of 7.0%. As such, it outperforms the combined luminance/efficiency state-of-the art for thermally activated delayed fluorescence light-emitting electrochemical cells by one order of magnitude. For this end, we employed a polymeric blend host for balanced electrochemical doping and electronic transport as well as uniform film formation, an optimized concentration (<1 mass%) of guest for complete host-to-guest energy transfer at minimized aggregation and efficient emission, and an appropriate concentration of an electrochemically stabile electrolyte for desired doping effects. The generic nature of our approach is manifested in the attainment of bright and efficient thermally activated delayed fluorescence emission from three different light-emitting electrochemical cells with invariant host:guest:electrolyte number ratio.

Promising operational stability of high-efficiency organic light-emitting diodes based on thermally activated delayed fluorescence.

Project description:Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) are attractive for next-generation displays and lighting applications because of their potential for high electroluminescence (EL) efficiency, flexibility and low-cost manufacture. Although phosphorescent emitters containing rare metals such as iridium or platinum produce devices with high EL efficiency, these metals are expensive and their blue emission remains unreliable for practical applications. Recently, a new route to high EL efficiency using materials that emit through thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) was demonstrated. However, it is unclear whether devices that emit through TADF, which originates from the contributions of triplet excitons, are reliable. Here we demonstrate highly efficient, stable OLEDs that emit via TADF by controlling the position of the carrier recombination zone, resulting in projected lifetimes comparable to those of tris(2-phenylpyridinato)iridium(III)-based reference OLEDs. Our results indicate that TADF is intrinsically stable under electrical excitation and optimization of the surrounding materials will enhance device reliability.

Highly effective organic light-emitting diodes containing thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitters with horizontal molecular orientation.

Project description:In this study, we report new thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters, AcPYM (10,10'-(pyrimidine-2,5-diylbis(4,1-phenylene))bis(9,9-dimethyl-9,10-dihydroacridine)) and PxPYM (10,10'-(pyrimidine-2,5-diylbis(4,1-phenylene))bis(10H-phenoxazine)), by employing donor units at the 2,5-positions of the pyrimidine acceptor unit. The donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) units combined in the linear molecular structure of AcPYM or PxPYM enhanced the horizontally oriented alignment, and the horizontal transition dipole moments were realized by up to 87% in the host matrix. Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) containing AcPYM and PxPYM emitters realized external quantum efficiencies (η ext) of 16.8% for blue and green emissions.

Asymmetric Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Materials With Aggregation-Induced Emission for High-Efficiency Organic Light-Emitting Diodes.

Project description:The exploitation of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters with aggregation-induced emission is highly prerequisite for the construction of highly efficient electroluminescent devices in materials science. Herein, two asymmetric TADF emitters of SFCOCz and SFCODPAC with charming aggregation-induced emission are expediently designed and prepared based on highly twisted strong electron-withdrawing acceptor (A) of sulfurafluorene (SF)-modified ketone (CO) and arylamine donor (D) in D1-A-D2 architecture by simple synthetic procedure in high yields. High photoluminescence quantum yields up to 73% and small singlet-triplet splitting of 0.03 eV; short exciton lifetimes are obtained in the resultant molecules. Strikingly, efficient non-doped and doped TADF organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) facilitated by these emitters show high luminance of 5,598 and 11,595 cd m-2, current efficiencies (CEs) of 16.8 and 35.6 cd/A, power efficiencies (PEs) of 9.1 and 29.8 lm/W, and external quantum efficiencies (EQEs) of 7.5 and 15.9%, respectively. This work furnishes a concrete instance in exploring efficient TADF emitter, which is highly conducive and encouraging in stimulating the development of TADF OLEDs with high brightness and excellent efficiencies simultaneously.
