The key role of acceptor moieties on the structural and the electronic properties of thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitters in excited states: A computational study
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract The insight into understanding the effect of acceptor moieties with phenoxazine (PXD) donor and bridging phenyl (Ph) spacer on structural and electronic properties of excited state was theoretically investigated through density functional theory simulations. Di-phenyltriazine (DPhTRZ), di-phenyl pyrimidine (DPhPyM), and di-pyridyl pyrimidine (DPyPyM) were chosen as acceptor moieties for thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters. It was found that planar structure between phenyl spacer and DPhTRZ/DPyPyM was dominantly determined by intramolecular H-bonds at inner side of acceptor moiety. Depending on the acceptor moieties, the adiabatic excitation energy in singlet and triplet state is shifted to higher energies in order: DPyPyM (blue) > DPhPyM (greenish-blue) > DPhTRZ (green). In the perspective of spin conversion, the exact spin flip barrier, defined as total energy barrier for triplet-to-singlet transition, is in order of DPhTRZ
