Abstract

In this study, we developed a donor-π-acceptor-π-donor-type thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitter (NyDPAc) using 1,5-naphthyridine as a core moiety. NyDPAc exhibited a high horizontal dipole ratio and thus a high external quantum efficiency (20.9%) even at a relatively low photoluminescence quantum yield (57%). 1,5-naphthyridine as an electron acceptor represents a promising core moiety for efficient TADF materials.
