Abstract: A metered volume microfluidic device can include fluid flow microfluidics. The fluid flow microfluidics can include an inflow channel, a metered volume chamber positioned to receive working fluid from the inflow channel, a metered volume outflow channel positioned to receive and direct a metered volume of the working fluid when discharged from the metered volume chamber, and a capillary check valve.

Abstract: Described are multi-resonance-thermally-activated delay-fluorescence compounds containing (i) a polycyclic aromatic/heteroaromatic ligand in which a plurality aromatic/heteroaromatic rings are linked by boron and nitrogen atoms and (ii) an N-heterocyclic carbene ligand, with both ligands coordinated to a metal atom/ion that has a high spin-orbit coupling. The use of the high spin-orbit coupling of metals and/or metal ions facilitates the intersystem crossing and/or reversed intersystem crossing processes of MR-TADF emitters, thereby largely accelerating the rate of TADF and substantially shortening the lifetime of deleterious triplet excitons. The MR-TADF emitters can be used to fabricate blue to green emitting OLEDs.
