Extremely efficient sky-blue organic electroluminescence with external quantum efficiency of ≈37% is achieved in a conventional planar device structure, using a highly efficient thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitter based on the spiroacridine-triazine hybrid and simultaneously possessing nearly unitary (100%) photoluminescence quantum yield, excellent thermal stability, and strongly horizontally oriented emitting dipoles (with a horizontal dipole ratio of 83%).

Article Synopsis
  • Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) seek to achieve near 100% quantum efficiency (QE) by utilizing excitons, but creating effective organic materials can be slow.
  • A new approach involves adding inorganic quantum dots, which serve as charge generation centers, to the organic luminescent layer, allowing unlimited exciton formation.
  • Using Silicon quantum dots (SiQDs), researchers showed significant improvements in external QE and electron transfer times, paving the way for wider applications across different colors and materials.

Pure organic thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials hold great promise for efficient organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), yet developing high-performance blue TADF materials that integrate short delayed lifetime with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties remains a significant challenge. In this study, we developed three highly-efficient blue TADF emitters (32clCBP, 32clCXT and 32PclCXT) featuring AIE character by integrating rigid π-extended donors with different acceptors. Notably, the doped 32PclCXT film achieved an exceptionally high photoluminescence quantum efficiency of up to 99% and a short delayed lifetime of 1.

Metal halide perovskites and perovskite-related organic metal halide hybrids (OMHHs) have recently emerged as a new class of luminescent materials for light emitting diodes (LEDs), owing to their unique and remarkable properties, including near-unity photoluminescence quantum efficiencies, highly tunable emission colors, and low temperature solution processing. While substantial progress has been made in developing monochromatic LEDs with electroluminescence across blue, green, red, and near-infrared regions, achieving highly efficient and stable white electroluminescence from a single LED remains a challenging and under-explored area. Here, a facile approach to generating white electroluminescence is reported by combining narrow sky-blue emission from metal halide perovskites and broadband orange/red emission from zero-dimensional (0D) OMHHs.

A unique class of tridentate diaryltriazine ligand-containing gold(III) complexes with thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) and/or thermally stimulated delayed phosphorescence (TSDP) properties has been designed and synthesized. With a simple structural modification on the coordination of carbazole moiety in the monodentate ligand, a large spectral shift of ∼160 nm (ca. 4900 cm) spanning from sky blue to red emissions has been demonstrated in solid-state thin films.

Thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF)-based electroluminescence (EL) devices adopting a host/guest strategy in their emitting layer (EML) are capable of realizing high efficiency. However, TADF emitters composed of donor and acceptor moieties as guests dispersed in organic host materials containing a donor and/or an acceptor are subject to donor-acceptor (D-A) interactions. In addition, electron delocalization between neighboring emitter molecules could form different species of aggregates.
