Abstract:
Experimental studies to reveal the cooperative relationship between spin, energy, and polarization through intermolecular charge‐transfer dipoles to harvest nonradiative triplets into radiative singlets in exciplex light‐emitting diodes are reported. Magneto‐photoluminescence studies reveal that the triplet‐to‐singlet conversion in exciplexes involves an artificially generated spin‐orbital coupling (SOC). The photoinduced electron parametric resonance measurements indicate that the intermolecular charge‐transfer occurs with forming electric dipoles (D +• →A −• ), providing the ionic polarization to generate SOC in exciplexes. By having different singlet‐triplet energy differences (Δ E ST ) in 9,9′‐diphenyl‐9 H ,9′ H ‐3,3′‐bicarbazole (BCzPh):3′,3′″,3′″″‐(1,3,5‐triazine‐2,4,6‐triyl)tris(([1,1′‐biphenyl]‐3‐carbonitrile)) (CN‐T2T) (Δ E ST = 30 meV) and BCzPh:bis‐4,6‐(3,5‐di‐3‐pyridylphenyl)‐2‐methyl‐pyrimidine (B3PYMPM) (Δ E ST = 130 meV) exciplexes, the SOC generated by the intermolecular charge‐transfer states shows large and small values (reflected by different internal magnetic parameters: 274 vs 17 mT) with high and low external quantum efficiency maximum, EQE max (21.05% vs 4.89%), respectively. To further explore the cooperative relationship of spin, energy, and polarization parameters, different photoluminescence wavelengths are selected to concurrently change SOC, Δ E ST , and polarization while monitoring delayed fluorescence. When the electron clouds become more deformed at a longer emitting wavelength due to reduced dipole (D +• →A −• ) size, enhanced SOC, increased orbital polarization, and decreased Δ E ST can simultaneously occur to cooperatively operate the triplet‐to‐singlet conversion.
