Abstract
A detailed overview of thermally activated delayed fluorescence conjugated polymers reported from 2015 to present is provided, with a focus on their molecular structures, excited-state properties, and organic light-emitting diode performance. In addition, the rules for regulating the excited-state properties of these TADF conjugated polymers are summarized. By carefully designing the molecular structures of conjugated TADF polymers, their excited-state properties and the energy gaps between the lowest singlet excited states and the lowest triplet excited state can effectively be adjusted. Furthermore, the reverse intersystem crossing rate of conjugated polymers can be increased by enhancing the spin–orbit coupling effect between the triplet and singlet states, and thus optimizing the collection of triplet excitons and improving the device performance, including external quantum efficiency and efficiency roll-off.
期刊介绍:
Materials Chemistry Frontiers focuses on the synthesis and chemistry of exciting new materials, and the development of improved fabrication techniques. Characterisation and fundamental studies that are of broad appeal are also welcome.
This is the ideal home for studies of a significant nature that further the development of organic, inorganic, composite and nano-materials.
