High‐Performance Circularly Polarized Electroluminescence with Simultaneous Narrowband Emission, High Efficiency, and Large Dissymmetry Factor

Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) that can simultaneously achieve narrowband emission, high efficiency, and circularly polarized luminescence remain a formidable challenge. In this study, a simple strategy is developed to address this challenge. A chiral exciplex-forming co-host is first designed by employing a chiral donor and an achiral acceptor molecule. The chiral exciplex host enables an achiral green multiple-resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitter to achieve high-performance circularly polarized electroluminescence (CP-EL) with a high external quantum efficiency of 33.2%, large electroluminescence dissymmetry factor of 2.8 × 10-3 , and a small full-width at half-maximum of 42 nm. This work provides a general approach for realizing CP-EL using easily available achiral emitters and can significantly extend the scope of circularly polarized OLEDs.
