基于界面激基复合物作为主体的主-客体型有机发光二极管(organic light emitting diodes, OLEDs)的外量子效率已经突破36%, 但其主-客体间能量传递过程还有待深入研究. 本文提出一种基于客体Rubrene热激子反向系间窜越(T2,Rub → S1,Rub)的特征磁响应探测界面激基复合物型OLEDs中能量传递过程的实验策略. 具体通过表征主、客体材料的光物理特性, 证明了主-客体单重态激子间的Förster共振能量传递过程; 通过研究界面激基复合物型器件的磁电致发光响应曲线, 可视化了主-客体三重态激子间的Dexter能量传递过程, 且该过程有效发生对于器件电致发光具有不可忽视的促进作用. 本研究不仅为探测OLEDs中Dexter能量传递过程提供切实可行的理论方法, 还为进一步设计高性能热激子型OLEDs提供新的实验参考.

The maximum external quantum efficiency of the host-guest-type organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) with interface exciplex as the host has been over 36%. However, studies about the energy transfer processes occurring from the host to guest remain lacking. Herein, a strategy is proposed to probe the energy transfer processes in interface-type OLEDs by utilizing the characteristic magneto-electroluminescence (MEL) response from the hot exciton reverse intersystem crossing (T2,Rub → S1,Rub) of rubrene. Specifically, a donor/spacer/accepter (D/S/A)-type interface exciplex device and a D/spacer:x% Emitter/A (D/S:3% Rubrene/A)-type Rubrene-doped device are fabricated. The Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) process occurring between the singlet state of the exciplex-host and the singlet state of Rubrene-guest is demonstrated by characterizing the photophysical properties of the donor, accepter, and guest materials. The Dexter energy transfer (DET, T1,Host → T2,Rub) process between the triplet state of the host and the triplet state of guest is visualized by the comparative studying of the current- and temperature-dependent MEL response curves of D/S/A and D/S:3% Rubrene/A devices, respectively. More importantly, the occurrence of the DET process greatly promotes the electroluminescence intensity of the D/S:3% Rubrene/A device. Furthermore, we also investigate the differences in the electroluminescence performance of devices at low temperature to demonstrate again the co-existence of FRET and DET process in the D/S:3% Rubrene/A system. Obviously, this work not only provides a promising strategy for probing the DET process in OLEDs, but also paves a new way for designing high-performance “hot exciton” type OLEDs.[1] Gu J N, Tang Z Y, Guo H Q, Chen Y, Xiao J, Chen Z J, Xiao L X 2022 J.
