In this study, TADF compounds with a D-A-type fused-ring core skeleton are developed. The challenging compatibility between a planarized D-A arrangement and the TADF property is achieved through linking the D and A moieties with two oxygen atoms within a six membered ring. These fused-ring compounds show higher performance in terms of photoluminescence spectra and electroluminescent devices.
Nowadays, thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) compounds with a fused-ring core skeleton are getting increasing research interest because of their use in high-performance organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). In this study, TADF compounds featuring a D-A-type fused-ring core skeleton are developed. The challenging compatibility of a planarized D-A arrangement and the TADF property is achieved through linking the D and A moieties with two oxygen atoms within a six membered ring. Compared with a single-oxygen analogue possessing a flexible skeleton and a twisted D-A arrangement, these fused-ring compounds with higher skeleton rigidity show higher photoluminescence quantum yields and narrower emission spectra in toluene and in doped thin films. Their electroluminescent devices achieve high external quantum efficiencies (up to 19.4%), suggesting the potential of rarely achieved D-A-type fused-ring TADF systems to serve as high-performance emitters of OLEDs.
