Charge-transfer-featured materials—promising hosts for fabrication of efficient OLEDs through triplet harvesting via triplet fusion

Abstract

A charge-transfer-featured naphthalimide derivative with a small exchange energy but a lower lying (3)ππ* state than (3)CT state is found to contribute to triplet harvesting through a P-type rather than an E-type delayed fluorescence, and could act as a quite promising host to achieve highly efficient OLEDs.
