Rigid and planar π-conjugated molecules leading to long-lived intramolecular charge-transfer states exhibiting thermally activated delayed fluorescence. Nature Communications, 15, 9611. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-024-53740-1

Intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) occurs when photoexcitation causes electron transfer from an electron donor to an electron acceptor within the same molecule and is usually stabilized by decoupling of the donor and acceptor through an orthogonal...

The efficiency of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) in organic materials relies on rapid intersystem crossing rates and fast conversion of triplet (T) excitons into a singlet (S) state. Heavy atoms such as sulfur or selenium are now fre...

A series of four emissive regio-isomers are synthesized based on the dibenzo[a, c]phenazine-11,12-dicarbonitrile (DBPzCN) acceptor scaffold and a triphenylamine (TPA) donor. Density functional theory is utilized to compare the relative differences in...
