Abstract

Read online

OLEDs based on thermally activated delayed fluorescence have shown high fluorescence efficiency but poor lifetime. Herein, Cui et al. demonstrate that the use of n-type host molecules can increase the device lifetime by 30 times and 1000 times for green and blue OLEDs, respectively.
