| Abstract: | Most thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters have to be doped in the host for fabricating efficient organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) and always suffer from quick efficiency roll‐off at high brightness, which severely affect their commercial application in display and lighting fields. In the work, a series of the polymers are synthesized by copolymerization of two carbazole monomers and one acridine derivative monomer containing benzophenone acceptor group. The obtained polymers therefore possess a conjugated backbone with carbazole/acridine moieties and benzophenone pendant to form the twisted donor/acceptor structure. Consequently, the TADF features inherited from the acridine derivative are maintained and improved by managing the content of acridine derivative monomer in the polymers. Solution‐processed OLEDs obtained from using neat polymer films exhibit comparable performance with organic TADF small molecules, achieving a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 18.1% and a very slow roll‐off with EQE of 17.8% at the luminance of 1000 cd m?2. |
