A host material consisting of a phosphinic amide directly linked donor–acceptor structure for efficient blue phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes
“…The similar FMO energy levels of DA n indicated the contributions from the same functional groups to these orbitals, namely aryl amine for the HOMO and naphthyl for the LUMO, in accord with DFT simulation results. Furthermore, according to previous reports,9j, 11 the HOMO and LUMO energy levels of parent molecule DPEPO without aryl amine functional groups were −6.1 and −2.5 eV. Therefore, the incorporation of aryl amine groups in DA n effectively improved the hole‐injecting ability, while the electron‐injecting abilities inherited from their naphthyl and DPPO were comparable.…”
The correspondence between triplet location effect and host-localized triplet-triplet annihilation and triplet-polaron quenching effects was performed on the basis of a series of naphthyldiphenylamine (DPNA)-modified phosphine oxide hosts. The number and ratio of DPNA and diphenylphosphine oxide was adjusted to afford symmetrical and unsymmetrical molecular structures and different electronic environments. As designed, the first triplet (T1 ) states were successfully localized on the specific DPNA chromophores. Owing to the meso- and multi-insulating linkages, identical optical properties and comparable electrical performance was observed, including the same first singlet (S1 ) and T1 energy levels to support the similar singlet and triplet energy transfer and the close frontier molecular orbital energy levels. This established the basis of rational investigation on T1 location effect without interference from other optoelectronic factors.

“…23 This leads to a preoccupation 55 that ternary D-A systems with effective intramolecular electronic coupling can hardly realize high triplet energy approaching to 3.0 eV. [24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] Nevertheless, owing to their superior electrical properties, efficient phosphorescent D-A hosts are emerged in recent years, 32,[35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49] even though their intramolecualr electronic coupling is 60 commonly suppressed by meta-, insulating or twisted linkages; while, only few D-A hosts are reported for blue TADF devices. 50 Nevertheless, there are very few reports about high-energy-gap ternary D-A type hosts without any spacers or linkers involved.…”
“…In addition, the EL spectra show similar profiles to those of film PL. But it should be noted that the 0 / 1 vibrational bands at 434 nm is enhanced in EL spectra, while the 0 / 0 vibrational band dominate the PL spectra, which is probably caused by the influence of the microcavity effect [22]. Furthermore, the EL spectra are found to be independent of the driving voltages, as shown by the spectra of G2F3 based device B as an example in Fig.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
