High‐Efficiency Fluorescent Organic Light‐Emitting Devices Using Sensitizing Hosts with a Small Singlet–Triplet Exchange Energy

Materials with small singlet–triplet splits (ΔESTs) are introduced as sensitizing hosts to excite fluorescent dopants, breaking the trade-off between small ΔEST and high radiative decay rates. A highly efficient orange-fluorescent organic light-emitting diode (OLED) is prepared, showing a maximum external quantum efficiency of 12.2%.
