摘要
Recent research has garnered significant attention for exploring highly efficient organic light-emitting diode (OLED) devices that utilize excitons generated in the triplet excited state. In this study, AML23-1 and AML23-2 were successfully synthesized by altering the number of fluorene units used as electron donors in the anthracene-phenanthroimidazole derivative. Detailed photophysical investigations, along with DFT analysis, suggest hybridized local and charge transfer (HLCT) characteristics for both materials. The incorporation of D-pi-A pairs promoted a unique electronic distribution, effectively narrowing the energy gap between the S1 and Tn (n = 2 or 3) states. Additionally, the stable T1 level of anthracene facilitated the transition to triplet-triplet fusion (TTF), enabling the recycling of dark triplet excitons. Finally, five non-doped devices using AML23-1 were fabricated with varying charge balances. The optimized device exhibited a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 4.84 % with low efficiency roll-off and Commission Internationale de l'E<acute accent>clairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.157, 0.296).
