  • Patent number: 11539004
    Abstract: Provided are an electroluminescent compound having a structure represented by Formula I, a thermally activated delayed fluorescence material and an application thereof. The electroluminescent compound has TADF characteristics and may be applied to a light emitting layer of an OLED device as a thermally activated delayed fluorescence material. The OLED device includes an anode, a cathode, and at least one organic thin film layer comprising the thermally activated delayed fluorescence material in a light emitting layer between the anode and the cathode. The electroluminescent compound effectively reduces the overlap between HOMO and LUMO through special molecular structure design, so that ?EST is reduced to less than 0.25 eV, which satisfies reverse crossing of energy from a triplet state to a singlet state, effectively improves transmission capacities of two kinds of carriers, improves carrier balance, and thus significantly improves light emitting efficiency of the OLED device.

  • Patent number: 11532793
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a boron heterocyclic compound having a structure represented by a chemical formula 1, wherein L1 and L2 are each independently selected from the group consisting of C6-C30 aryl, C6-C30 fused aryl, C4-C30 heteroaryl, and C4-C30 fused heteroaryl; and R1 and R2 are each independently selected from the group consisting of carbazolyl, a carbazolyl-derived group, acridinyl, an acridinyl-derived group, diarylamino, and a diarylamino-derived group. The double boron heterocyclic structure functions as an electron acceptor and a linker. In the present disclosure, by attaching a group having a large steric hindrance to the boron atom of the boron heterocyclic ring, the molecules the compound are prevented from aggregating, and thus a ?-aggregation or excimer formed by direct accumulation of the conjugate plane is avoided, thereby improving the light-emitting efficiency. The present disclosure further provides a display panel and a display apparatus.
