Abstract

The construction of high color purity and high resolution organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) is facilitated by the development of highly-efficient organic luminescent materials with narrow-band emission. Herein, in order to address the problem of broad emission spectra of organic luminescent materials, an effective molecular design strategy is presented to reduce the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of emission by integrating the steric hindrance effect in the pyrene system. As the bulky group was introduced into the 2-position, compounds 5 not only show a relative high quantum yield (>0.31) in the solid state, but also can suppress the molecular rotation of triphenylamine (TPA) at the 3-position to narrow the FWHM in the solid state compared to that in solution. Compound 5c containing biphenyl units exhibits a maximum emission peak at 484 nm with a quantum yield of 0.38 and FWHM value of 49 nm in the solid state.
