Article Abstract
A novel class of o-carboranyl luminophores, 2CB-BuDABNA (1) and 3CB-BuDABNA (2) is reported, in which o-carborane moieties are incorporated at the periphery of the B,N-doped multi-resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) core. Both compounds maintain the inherent local emission characteristics of their MR-emitting core, exhibiting intense MR-TADF with high photoluminescence quantum yields in toluene and rigid states. In contrast, the presence of the dark lowest-energy charge transfer state, induced by cage rotation in THF, is suggested to be responsible for emission quenching in a polar solvent. Despite the different arrangement of the cage on the DABNA core, both 1 and 2 show red-shifted emissions compared to the parent compound BuDABNA (3). By utilizing 1 as the emitter, high-efficiency blue organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) are achieved with a remarkable maximum external quantum efficiency of 25%, representing the highest reported efficiency for OLEDs employing an o-carboranyl luminophore as the emitter.

The development of high-performance near-ultraviolet organic light-emitting diodes (NUV-OLEDs) remains challenging due to their intrinsic wide-bandgap characteristics. Therefore, this study fully exploits the weak electron-accepting characteristics of the PPI group, combined with its high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and excellent thermal stability. Through a precise molecular structure modulation strategy involving direct introduction of electron-donating diphenylamine groups into the side phenyl ring and systematic integration of donor/acceptor units with tailored electronic properties into the main backbone, effective control of excited-state characteristics and their spatial distribution was successfully achieved.

As a class of functional materials used in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), sensitizers play a crucial role in the improvement of device efficiency, color purity, and stability. In recent years, thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) sensitizers have attracted much attention mainly because of their high exciton utilization efficiency by converting quenched triplet excitons into singlet excitons. Despite the experimental success of sensitization strategies in enhancing OLED performance, the lack of theoretical models for sensitizers continues to hinder further development.

Hexa--hexabenzocoronene (HBC) and its derivatives have emerged as prominent polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) due to their unique structural, electronic, and photophysical properties. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the synthetic strategies employed for the construction of HBC frameworks, ranging from traditional methods to recent advances that offer improved efficiency, regioselectivity, and structural diversity. The molecular architecture of HBCs, characterized by extended π-conjugation and planarity, contributes significantly to their stability and distinctive physical properties, including high charge-carrier mobility and tunable optical absorption.

Achieving both high efficiency and operational stability in solution-processed organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) remains a significant challenge due to charge imbalance and the limited structural robustness of polymeric hole transport layers (HTLs). Herein, we report a sterically engineered polymer HTM, TFPHS, designed by incorporating a bulky 1-methyl-4-phenylnaphthalene side group into a TFB-derived conjugated backbone. This structural modification enhances backbone rigidity, suppresses dihedral torsion, and enables balanced hole and electron transport.

Near-infrared (NIR) fluorophores, characterized by emission wavelengths exceeding 650 nm, have garnered significant attention due to their diverse and advanced applications in fields such as organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), photomicrography, anti-counterfeiting, in vivo/vitro bioimaging, as well as theranostics. In this study, we report the rational design and facile synthesis of a novel NIR fluorescent molecule, AA-TPA, strategically constructed by integrating two twisted triphenylamine (TPA) electron-donating groups with a dibenzo[def,mno]chrysene-6,12-dione (AA) electron-accepting unit. The pronounced donor-acceptor interaction within the non-planar and rigid molecular architecture facilitates NIR emission with a peak at 667 nm, while preserving efficient luminescence with a photoluminescence quantum yield of 46 % in a doped film.
