Hot Exciplex Polymers – new solution processable TADF polymers with exceptional emission characteristics

在这个项目中，我们将探索一种新型的热激活延迟荧光（TADF），它通过基于热激子和激基复合物的组合机制工作-我们称之为热激基复合物。为了实现这一点，我们制备由通过蒽桥连接的电子供体和受体组成的单体，并将这些单体聚合形成可溶性聚合物。聚合物材料允许我们研究不同的影响热激基复合物的机制，通过分配给体和受体的骨干或外围，分别。我们将探索这些新型TADF聚合物作为激光增益材料以及在简单OLED器件中的光电性能。

In this project, we will explore a new type of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) working through a combined mechanism based on hot excitons and exciplexes – which we term hot exciplexes. To achieve this, we prepare monomers composed of electron donors and acceptors that are linked via an anthracene bridge and we polymerize these monomers to form soluble polymers. The polymer materials allow us to study different effects to influence the hot-exciplex mechanism, by allocating the donor and acceptor on the backbone or periphery, respectively. We will explore the opto-electronic performance of these novel TADF polymers as laser gain materials as well as in simple OLED devices.
