Hybridized local and charge transfer dendrimers with near-unity exciton utilization for enabling high-efficiency solution-processed hyperfluorescent OLEDs

Mater. Horiz., 2024, 11,1741-1751
DOI: 10.1039/D3MH01860A, Communication
Yixiao Yin, Songkun Zeng, Chen Xiao, Peng Fan, Dong Jin Shin, Ki Ju Kim, Hyewon Nam, Qian Ma, Huili Ma, Weiguo Zhu, Taekyung Kim, Jun Yeob Lee, Yafei Wang
Two dendrimers, called D-TTT-H and D-TTT-tBu, were prepared, which exhibits both hot exciton process and TADF characteristic simultaneously in solid state. The solution processable OLED showed an EQEmax of 30.88% employing D-TTT-H as a sensitizer.

Time-averaged atomic volume spectrum: locating and identifying vacancies

Mater. Horiz., 2024, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/D4MH00140K, Communication
YongQuan Wu, Hao Wang, JiaHao Fu, BoYang Zhang, Xu Zhao, Kai Zhang
We developed the TAVS method to accurately locate and fully identify vacancies based on a new concept of the atomic cage enwrapping vacancies. This flexible method is believed to be applicable to any type of vacancy in any type of material.
