Abstract

A D-A structured thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitter, CyFbCz, was developed. The combination of 4-fluorocyanophenyl acceptor and carbazolyl donor resulted in an appropriate energy gap for efficient blue emitting. The well separated HOMO and LUMO contributed to a small ΔEST (0.09 eV) and effective reverse intersystem crossing from lowest triplet state (T1) to singlet state (S1). The OLED with CyFbCz dopant achieved a maximum luminance of 2526.8 cd/m2, a maximum current efficiency of 6.64 cd/A, and a CIE coordinate of (0.18, 0.13).
