In this work, we propose a novel concept to develop two fluorophores 2-(10 H-phenothiazin-10-yl)thianthrene 5,5,10,10-tetraoxide (PTZ-TTR) and 2-(4-(10 H-phenothiazin-10-yl)phenyl)thianthrene 5,5,10,10-tetraoxide (PTZ-Ph-TTR) showing dual conformations for highly efficient single-emitter white organic light-emitting diodes (WOLEDs). Both molecules exist in two stable conformations. Their nearly orthogonal forms own lower energy levels and show thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) characteristics, whereas their nearly planar conformers possess higher energy levels and show only prompt fluorescence. These dual conformers were exploited for fabricating WOLEDs with complementary emission colors contributed by the two conformations. Moreover, the originally wasted triplet energy on the nearly planar conformation can be transferred to the nearly orthogonal one and then harvested via the TADF channel, realizing full exciton utilization. A PTZ-TTR-based single-emitter device exhibits standard white emission with a CIE coordinate of (0.33, 0.33) and a high color rendering index value of 92. On the other hand, the PTZ-Ph-TTR-based single-emitter device realizes an emission approaching warm white light and a high maximum external quantum efficiency of 16.34%. These results demonstrate an alternative approach for designing high-performance WOLEDs based on single TADF emitters.

Highly efficient deep-red organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) are indispensable for developing high-performance red-green-blue (RGB) displays and white OLEDs (WOLEDs). However, the shortage of deep-red emitters with high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) and balanced charge injection/transport abilities has severely restricted the performance of deep-red OLEDs. Herein, we design and synthesize four efficient emitters by combining the isoquinoline group with the thianthrene 5,5,10,10-tetraoxide group. Benefited from the introduction of the thianthrene 5,5,10,10-tetraoxide group, these Ir(III) complexes show improved electron-injection/-transport abilities. By enhancing the contribution of the triplet metal-to-ligand charge transfer (3MLCT) in emissions, the asymmetric configuration endows the related deep-red Ir(III) complexes with high PLQYs of 0.45-0.50 in solutions. More importantly, PLQYs of these Ir(III) complexes in doped host films increase up to 0.91, which is much higher than PLQYs reported for conventional deep-red Ir(III) complexes with impressive electroluminescent performance. As a result, solution-processed OLEDs based on these Ir(III) complexes exhibit deep-red emissions with Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIE x, y) coordinates very close to the National Television System Committee (NTSC)-recommended standard red CIE coordinates of (0.67, 0.33). Furthermore, a deep-red OLED using the asymmetric Ir(III) complex SOIrOPh as the emitter shows outstanding performance with a peak external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 25.8%, which is the highest EQE reported for solution-processed deep-red OLEDs. This work sheds light on the great potential of utilizing the thianthrene 5,5,10,10-tetraoxide group to develop phosphorescent emitters for highly efficient OLEDs.
