Evaporation‐ and Solution‐Process‐Feasible Highly Efficient Thianthrene‐9,9′,10,10′‐Tetraoxide‐Based Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Emitters with Reduced Efficiency Roll‐Off

Abstract
Two novel evaporation- and solution-process-feasible thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitters, green-light-emission ACRDSO2 and yellow-light-emission PXZDSO2, based on a brand-new electron-acceptor moiety thianthrene-9,9′,10,10′-tetraoxide, are developed for organic light-emitting diodes. The solution-processed devices, without any hole-transport layer, exhibit competitive performance and reduced efficiency roll-off compared with corresponding vacuum-deposited devices.
