Exciton chirality for deep-blue circularly polarized multiple resonance TADF emitter
摘要
Developing chiral thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials with excellent photophysical and chiroptical properties is crucial for advancing circularly polarized organic light-emitting diodes (CP-OLED). To overcome the inherent trade-off relationship between photoluminescent quantum yield (PLQY) and dissymmetry factor (g), a fixed degenerate exciton chirality (FD-EC) strategy based on the multiple resonance TADF chromophore is proposed, exhibiting improved deep-blue emission with the peak at 454 nm and a high PLQY of 0.96, and unique exciton chirality with amplified |gabs| and |gPL| values of 1.0 × 10-3 and 1.6 × 10-3. The CP-OLED, incorporating the chiral blue emitter, exhibits standard blue emission with a narrow full width at half maximum of 30 nm, a superior external quantum efficiency of 27.8%, Commission Internationale de L’Eclairage coordinates of (0.14, 0.08), and distinct circularly polarized electroluminescence.
