A deep-red fluorophore based on naphthothiadiazole as emitter with hybridized local and charge transfer and ambipolar transporting properties for electroluminescent devices.

ABSTRACT: Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of an efficient ambipolar charge-carrier-transporting deep-red fluorophore (TPECNz) based on a donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D)-type molecule and its application as a non-doped emitter in an organic light-emitting diode (OLED). The fluorophore TPECNz contains naphtho[2,3-c][1,2,5]thiadiazole (Nz) as a strong acceptor unit symmetrically functionalized with N-(4-(1,2,2-triphenylvinyl)phenyl)carbazole as a donor and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogen. The experimental (solvatochromic and emission in THF/water mixtures studies) and theoretical investigations prove that TPECNz retains cooperative hybridized local and charge transfer (HLCT) and weak AIE features. Thanks to its D-A-D-type structure with
