  • various efforts have been made to improve luminous efficiency by developing and combining newly developed electron transport materials, hole transport materials, luminescent materials, etc. that make up organic electroluminescence elements.
  • organic electroluminescence elements that use delayed fluorescent materials.
  • Delayed fluorescent materials are materials that emit fluorescence when they undergo reverse intersystem crossing from an excited triplet state to an excited singlet state in an excited state, and then return from that excited singlet state to the ground state. Fluorescence from this route is observed later than fluorescence from an excited singlet state that occurs directly from the ground state (normal fluorescence), and is therefore called delayed fluorescence.
  • delayed fluorescence when a luminescent compound is excited by carrier injection, the probability of occurrence of an excited singlet state and an excited triplet state is statistically 25%:75%, so there is a limit to the improvement of luminous efficiency when only the fluorescence from the directly excited singlet state is used.
  • delayed fluorescent materials can use not only the excited singlet state but also the excited triplet state for fluorescence emission via the above-mentioned route via reverse intersystem crossing, resulting in a higher luminous efficiency than normal fluorescent materials.
