We investigated efficient hybrid white organic light emitting diodes (WOLEDs) apply to triplet harvesting (TH) concept based on three complementary colors by mixing containing blue fluorescent emitter with phosphorescent emitters. The TH is to transfer these triplet excitons from a fluorescence to a phosphorescence, where they can decay radiatively. We fabricated several hybrid WOLEDs, having various emitting layer structures with blue fluorescent emitter and red, green phosphorescent emitter. The WOLED exhibited maximum luminous efficiency of 9.02 cd/A, and a maximum external quantum efficiency of 4.17%. The WOLED showed a highly color-stable white emission with the Commission International de L'Éclairage chromaticity of (0.38, 0.36) at 1,000 cd/m2.

Donor-acceptor dyads are promising materials for improving triplet-sensitized photon upconversion due to faster intramolecular energy transfer (ET), which unfortunately competes with charge transfer (CT) dynamics. To circumvent the issue associated with CT, we propose a novel purely organic donor-acceptor dyad, where the CT character is confined within the donor moiety. In this work, we report the synthesis and characterization of a stable organic radical donor-triplet acceptor dyad () consisting of the acceptor perylene () linked to the donor (4--carbazolyl-2,6-dichlorophenyl)-bis(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)methyl radical ().

Photoswitchable materials are of significant interest for diverse applications from energy and data storage to additive manufacturing and soft robotics. However, the absorption profile is often a limiting factor for practical applications. This can be overcome using indirect excitation complementary photophysical pathways, such as triplet sensitisation or photon upconversion.

Long-lived triplet excitons are kingmakers to generate high efficiency optoelectronic OLEDs. However, it is difficult to produce matrix-free solid state emissive room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) from carbon dots (CDs). In the present work, limited rotation of the two naphthol rings in (R)-1,1-Bi-2-naphthol (R-Binol) has been used to synthesize CDs aimed to obtain emission in the aggregated and RTP states.

Article Synopsis
  • Photon-upconversion (PUC) processes, such as triplet-triplet upconversion and hot-band absorption, are emerging for better energy harvesting but need improvements in efficiency and energy loss.* -
  • The proposed PUC mechanism utilizes a combination of a triplet sensitizer and thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) molecules to efficiently transfer energy, resulting in an emission with an anti-Stokes energy of 0.18 eV.* -
  • The efficiency of this energy transfer is influenced by the radiative decay rate of TADF molecules and the Gibbs energy difference between the donor and acceptor, providing insight valuable for future applications like optical cooling systems.*

Solid state photon upconversion by triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA), particularly near-infrared (NIR)-to-blue upconversion, holds instant promise for enhancing optoelectronic and photochemical applications. Despite extensive studies, NIR-to-blue upconversion has remained particularly challenging and elusive due to inherent multiple energy-downhill processes in TTA upconversion. In this study, using atomically thin two dimensional (2D) monolayer semiconductor as a triplet sensitizer, we demonstrate an efficient and robust solid-state NIR-to-blue photon upconversion system.
