Construction of Circular Polarized Luminescence Molecules for Intense Near Infrared OLEDs

Abstract The exploration of organic near‐infrared (NIR) luminescence, along with circularly polarized luminescence (CPL), is of vital importance due to its significance in medical and optoelectronic applications. Integrating a chiral unit into a D–A molecular structure in this research realized emission peaks at 744 nm, exhibiting a dissymmetric factor of −1.67 × 10⁻³. The introduced chiral TPA derivative not only imparts aggregation‐induced emission properties and CPL capabilities but also induces a redshift in the emission spectrum. Consequently, the fabricated NIR organic light‐emitting devices (OLEDs), achieve maximum electroluminescent peaks at 748 nm in nondoped devices with the external quantum efficiency of 13.7% in doped devices. This pioneering research provides inspiration for the design of NIR molecules possessing CPL properties in the future, particularly in promoting the application of intense NIR‐OLEDs.
