Synergistic π‐Extension and Peripheral‐Locking of B/N‐Based Multi‐Resonance Framework Enables High‐Performance Pure‐Green Organic Light‐Emitting Diodes.

Multi‐resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR‐TADF) emitters offer natural advantages for creating power‐efficient, wide‐color‐gamut OLEDs. However, current green MR‐TADF emitters face challenges in simultaneously achieving high color purity and efficient reverse inter‐system crossing (RISC), leading to suboptimal device performance. In this study, we propose a synergistic molecular design approach that combines π‐extension and peripheral locking to address these challenges. This approach allows for the construction of quadruple borylated MR‐TADF emitters that not only deliver precisely tuned pure‐green emission with a narrow full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 15 nm, but also exhibit close‐to‐unity quantum yield, rapid RISC, and optimal horizontal dipole orientation. The resulting sensitizer‐free OLED approaches the BT.2020 standard with CIE coordinates of (0.18, 0.74) and demonstrates impressive external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 36.6 % at maximum and 31.8 % at 1000 cd m−2. Additionally, the device shows good operational stability, with a lifetime (LT80) of 485 hours at an initial luminance of 1000 cd m−2. This study hence offers a promising molecular design strategy that effectively enhances the comprehensive OLED performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
