Abstract

Abstract Pure green emitters are essential for realizing an ultrawide color gamut in next‐generation displays. Herein, by fusing the difficult‐to‐access aza‐aromatics onto B (boron)–N (nitrogen) skeleton, a hybridized multi‐resonance and charge transfer (HMCT) molecule AZA‐BN was successfully synthesized through an effective one‐shot multiple cyclization method. AZA‐BN shows pure green fluorescence with photoluminance quantum yield of 99.7 %. The corresponding green device exhibits a maximum external quantum efficiency and power efficiency of 28.2 % and 121.7 lm W −1 , respectively, with a full width half maximum (FWHM) of merely 30 nm and Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage (CIE) coordinate y of 0.69, representing the purest green bottom‐emitting organic light‐emitting diode.
