Developing efficient "hot exciton" thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials in electroluminescence has always been a significant and challenging issue. Herein, we have designed and synthesized two deuterated yellow emitters BT-2PhCz-d 10 and BT-2PhCz-d 24 based on the commonly designed hot exciton emitter BT-2PhCz to improve the exciton utilization efficiency. Transient absorption (TA) kinetic analysis showed that deuterated BT-2PhCz-d 10 and BT-2PhCz-d 24 possessed shorter delayed lifetimes and a faster high-lying reverse intersystem crossing rate constant (k h-RISC ) than BT-2PhCz. The measured photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and infrared spectrum results also experimentally confirmed that the introduction of C− D bonds played a key role in suppressing nonradiative processes. The optimized organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) based on these hot exciton materials exhibited a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 7.1% for BT-2PhCz, 10.0% for BT-2PhCzd 10 , and 11.8% for BT-2PhCz-d 24 , respectively, corresponding to exciton utilization efficiencies of 39.3−26.2, 50.0−33.3, and 59.4− 39.6%. These results confirm that the deuterated isotope effect realized the regulation of high-energy spin flip processes and nonradiative decay processes, providing a new strategy for designing high-performance hot exciton emitters.
