Abstract

Full color luminogens are constructed from tetraphenylethene, benzo-2,1,3-thiadiazole and thiophene building blocks. OLED fabricated using one of the luminogens exhibits orange-red electroluminescence with high luminance and efficiencies of 8330 cd m(-2), 6.1 cd A(-1) and 3.1%, respectively.
