Emission Using <i>Adaptable</i> Range Separated Hybrids: Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Emitters as Test Case

In this contribution, we describe how our methodology of tuning adaptable range separated hybrids (RSHs), recently developed to accurately predict absorption energy associated with charge transfer (CT) excitations, can be extended to take into account structural relaxation and used to predict emission in molecular systems. To test our model, we have focused on a series of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters that have been the subject of intense theoretical and experimental investigation. The results obtained for these compounds show the very good accuracy of the adaptive tuning procedure of RSHs also for the prediction of emission energies and their balanced description of triplet and singlet excited states, confirming their potential for the exploration of excited states energy surfaces, including for the design of novel TADF compounds.
