Medium‐Ring Strategy Enables Multiple Resonance Emitters with Twisted Geometry and Fast Spin‐Flip to Suppress Efficiency Roll‐Off

Suppressing aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect and reducing device efficiency roll-off are both crucial yet challenging for multi-resonance (MR) emitters. Herein, we put forward a medium-ring strategy to design efficient MR emitters that feature heptagonal tribenzo[b,d,f]azepine (TBA) donors. The highly twisted conformation enlarges the intermolecular distances between the MR-emitting cores, and thus suppresses ACQ effect. Meanwhile, the introduction of heptagonal donors enhances spin-orbital coupling, so as to accelerate reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) process. This medium-ring strategy gives rise to the first example of blue MR emitter that simultaneously possesses radiative decay rate as fast as 108 s-1 and RISC rate as fast as 106 s-1 . Accordingly, DTBA-B2N3 enables to assemble high-performance blue organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) with maximum external quantum efficiency (EQEmax ) of 30.9 % and alleviated efficiency roll-off (EQE1000 : 20.5 %).
