Simple‐Structure and Anti‐Quenching Deep‐Blue Multi‐Resonance TADF Emitters Enable High‐Efficiency OLEDs with BT.2020 Blue Gamut

Abstract Developing highly efficient pure‐blue organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) that meet the stringent BT.2020 standard by using multi‐resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR‐TADF) materials has long been a formidable challenge. In this study, a strategy is demonstrated for high‐performance blue MR‐TADF emitters by gradually decorating the MR framework with alkyl groups, and subsequently introducing a diarylamino group at the para ‐position of boron atom. The proof‐of‐concept molecule, IPrBN‐mCP, exhibits a narrowband deep‐blue emission peaking at 452 nm, with a very narrow full‐width at half maximum (FWHM) of 19 nm in solution, and a remarkably high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) approaching unity in doped films. As a result, OLEDs based on IPrBN‐mCP achieve not only a high maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE max ) of 33.4% but also ultrapure blue emission with a Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIE) y value of 0.046, fully satisfying the BT.2020 blue standard. This represents the first OLED example fully meeting the rigorous color requirements of the BT.2020 blue standard while simultaneously achieving an EQE exceeding 30%.

Abstract

Abstract Developing highly efficient pure‐blue organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) that meet the stringent BT.2020 standard by using multi‐resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR‐TADF) materials has long been a formidable challenge. In this study, a strategy is demonstrated for high‐performance blue MR‐TADF emitters by gradually decorating the MR framework with alkyl groups, and subsequently introducing a diarylamino group at the para ‐position of boron atom. The proof‐of‐concept molecule, IPrBN‐mCP, exhibits a narrowband deep‐blue emission peaking at 452 nm, with a very narrow full‐width at half maximum (FWHM) of 19 nm in solution, and a remarkably high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) approaching unity in doped films. As a result, OLEDs based on IPrBN‐mCP achieve not only a high maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE max ) of 33.4% but also ultrapure blue emission with a Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIE) y value of 0.046, fully satisfying the BT.2020 blue standard. This represents the first OLED example fully meeting the rigorous color requirements of the BT.2020 blue standard while simultaneously achieving an EQE exceeding 30%.
