Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing organic electroluminescent materials, particularly heat activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials, have limited choices and performance, which hinders their application in organic optoelectronic devices due to high production costs and limited luminous efficiency.
Innovation Solution
Development of a new organic electroluminescent material with a specific chemical formula (I) that includes a chemical group A and B, allowing for a narrow energy difference between singlet and triplet excited states, enabling efficient reverse intersystem crossing and TADF properties without the use of expensive metal complexes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If existing TADF materials are used, then production cost is reduced compared to phosphorescent materials, but luminous efficiency and performance remain limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the molecular structure parameters of TADF materials by introducing specific chemical groups (formula I) and adjusting the energy difference between singlet and triplet excited states to be 0.01-0.30 eV, thereby improving luminous efficiency while maintaining the cost advantage of metal-free materials
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates composite TADF materials combining electron-donating group A (formulas III or IV) with electron-accepting group B (formula II) to achieve both low cost and high performance through synergistic molecular design
2Productivity
If the energy difference between singlet and triplet excited states is reduced to enable efficient reverse intersystem crossing, then TADF performance is improved, but the material design becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the TADF material into two functional parts: electron-donating group A (formulas III or IV) and electron-accepting group B (formula II), which can be independently designed and optimized to achieve the desired energy difference without overwhelming structural complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality by designing specific chemical structures with defined electron-donating and electron-accepting characteristics at different molecular locations, creating push-pull systems that precisely control the energy gap between excited states
