Multiple Resonance Quasi‐fluorescence from BN‐Doped Aromatic Compounds Modified with “Naphthalene” Units Approaches the BT.2020 Green Light Standard

Developing fluorophores that conform to the Broadcast Service Television 2020 (BT.2020) standard presents a formidable challenge. Here, we propose an innovative approach that integrates two and three-boron/nitrogen (BN2)-embedded [4]helicene subunits with naphthalene, resulting in the synthesis of two novel narrowband bright green quasi-fluorescent emitters, NT-2B and NT-3B for ultra-high-definition displays. These emitters exhibit minimal reorganization energy and Huang-Rhys factor, emitting at 510 and 511 nm in dilute toluene solution with exceptionally narrow full width at half maximum values of 15 and 14 nm, respectively. Notably, NT-2B demonstrates an impressive photoluminescence quantum yield of 92.5 %, rapid radiative decay rate, and slow non-radiative decay rate. Owing to their narrowband emission characteristics and outstanding optoelectronic properties, corresponding OLEDs based on NT-2B demonstrate a high external quantum efficiency of 30.6 %, with an FWHM value of 21.5 nm and a CIEy of 0.74, positioning it as one of the leading narrow-band green emitters.
