Abstract:
Thermally activated delayed fluorescent (TADF) materials have drawn widespread attentions due to their great potential for practical applications in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Deep understanding of the structure-excited state-photophysical property relationships is a key to rationally design TADF emitters. Herein, two new TADF molecules, TBP-DPXZ and TBQ-DPXZ, which consist of locked (triptycene-fused dibenzophenazine) and unlocked (triptycene-fused 2, 3-diphenylquinoxaline) electron-acceptors respectively and phenoxazine electron donors are reported. The comparative study reveals that the lock/unlock strategy could substantially manipulate the lowest locally excited (LE) and charge transfer (CT) states of these emitters via changing the acceptor strength, structural rigidity, and conjugation length, and in turn lead to significantly different photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) performance. It is notable that the unlocked molecule TBQ-DPXZ emits efficient green fluorescence with photoluminescence quantum yield of 91% and TADF lifetime of 3.6 mu s in doped film. The doped OLED based on TBQ-DPXZ achieves an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 25.1%, a current efficiency (CE) of 79.7 cd/ A, a power efficiency (PE) of 80.0 lm/W, and a maximum luminance of 18400 cd/m(2), which are better than those of the TBP-DPXZ-based device and are among the best results reported so far for green TADF-OLEDs.
