Abstract
) and high photoluminescence quantum yields. We explore the diverse applications of TADF materials, spanning OLEDs, biomedical imaging, photosensitizers, photocatalysis, UV photodetectors (UVOPDs), electrogenerated chemiluminescence, triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA) sensitizers, organic hybrid microwire radial heterojunctions, multicolor luminescent micelles, mechano-luminescence (ML), light-emitting electrochemical cells (LEECs), and fluorescent probes. The integration of TADF materials in these technologies highlights their potential to enhance performance and efficiency. Through this review, we aim to elucidate the fundamental principles governing TADF behavior and present a forward-looking perspective on the synthetic methodologies and new, versatile applications of materials.
