At doping ratios ranging from 1 to 12 wt%, the BN-S and BN-Se-based sensitizer-free OLEDs exhibited nearly unchanged EL spectra with small FWHMs of 27–30 nm and EQEmax of 36.4–43.1%. The BN-Se-based...
Check out our latest in @ChemRxiv ( https://t.co/Ap3q289iWT) highlighting the advantage of placement of chalcogenophenes in improving RISC while maintaining high #PLQY and narrowband emission, leading to outstanding performance in #oleds in collaboration with the group of Ping Lu.
