Abstract
Two triphenylamine or 4,4'-di(tert-butyl)triphenylamine groups are introduced at the 1,8-positions of 3,6-di(tert-butyl)-9-(4-(4,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)phenyl)carbazole to yield two emitters containing a cofacial donor-acceptor-donor chromophore, which exhibit strong TADF characteristics dominated by through-space charge-transfer. The solution-processed OLEDs achieve maximum external quantum efficiencies of up to 17.4% and 24.3% with small efficiency roll-off rates.
