Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of organic electroluminescent materials technology, specifically relating to a dendritic narrow-band blue light epoxy resin material. Background Technology
[0002] Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) technology has been widely used in display and lighting fields after decades of development. However, the broad spectral characteristics of traditional fluorescent and phosphorescent materials are difficult to meet the requirements of high color purity, which restricts their application in ultra-high-definition displays. In 2016, Chihaya Adachi's team first reported a narrowband OLED (DABNA-1) based on MR-TADF material, with a blue light emission half-width (FWHM) of only 14 nm and an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 20.5%, which sparked a research boom in narrowband OLEDs. Subsequently, Ma Yuguang's team achieved blue light emission with an FWHM of 19 nm (EQE = 12.2%) through the thermal exciton mechanism, Kim Jang-Joo's team developed a green narrowband OLED (FWHM = 29 nm, EQE = 25.6%) based on AIE material, and Kido Jiro's team reported a red narrowband OLED (FWHM = 28 nm, EQE = 18.3%). In 2022, the team led by Duan Lian at Tsinghua University further optimized the MR-TADF material, achieving deep blue light emission (FWHM = 21 nm, EQE = 32.1%). Despite the significant progress, blue light materials still face challenges such as insufficient efficiency and stability, and high synthesis costs. Summary of the Invention
