Abstract
Currently reported circularly polarized luminescent devices are primarily based on rare earth and noble metal complexes or lead perovskite materials. Reports on electroluminescent devices employing eco-friendly luminescent materials are notably scarce. In this study, we strategically designed and synthesized manganese complexes featuring Binapo as the chiral ligand. The complex structure reveals a tetrahedral coordination configuration, with the R/S configurations exhibiting a mirror relationship. Leveraging the strong ligand field and chiral structural characteristics of Binapo, the enantiomers display red emission and exhibit significant circularly polarized luminescence with a circularly polarized luminescence asymmetric factor (g lum) of 5.1 × 10-3. The circularly polarized electroluminescent performance was investigated by using a solution processing method and host-guest doping strategy. Our efforts resulted in device performance with an external quantum efficiency (EQE) exceeding 4%, and its electroluminescent asymmetric factor (g EL) reached an impressive -8.5 × 10-3. This surpasses the performance of most devices relying on platinum (Pt) and iridium (Ir) metal complexes and perovskite related materials. Our work establishes a pathway for the development of cost-effective and environmentally friendly chiral electroluminescent materials and devices.

Tunable circularly polarized luminescence behaviors caused by the structural symmetry of achiral pyrene-based emitters in chiral co-assembled systems. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 669:561-568. [PMID: 38729004 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.05.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2024] [Revised: 04/14/2024] [Accepted: 05/04/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024]
Abstract
The regulation of circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) behavior is of great significance for practical applications. Herein, we deliberately designed three achiral pyrene derivatives (Py-1, Py-2, and Py-3) with different butoxy-phenyl substituents and the chiral binaphthyl-based inducer (R/S-B) with anchored dihedral angle to construct chiral co-assemblies, and explored their induced CPL behaviors. Interestingly, the resulting co-assemblies demonstrate tunable CPL emission behaviors caused by the structural symmetry effect of achiral pyrene-based emitters during the chiral co-assembly process. And in spin-coated films, the dissymmetry factor (gem) values were 9.1 × 10-3 for (R/S-B)1-(Py-1)10, 5.6 × 10-2 for (R/S-B)1-(Py-2)7, and 8.6 × 10-4 for (R/S-B)1-(Py-3)1, respectively. The strongest CPL emission (|gem| = 5.6 × 10-2, λem = 423 nm, QY = 34.8 %) was detected on (R/S-B)1-(Py-2)7 due to the formation of regular and ordered helical nanofibers through the strong π-π stacking interaction between the R/S-B and the achiral Py-2 emitter. The strategy presented here provides a creative approach for progressively regulating CPL emission behaviors in the chiral co-assembly process.

Abstract
Chiral conjugated polymer has promoted the development of the efficient circularly polarized electroluminescence (CPEL) device, nevertheless, it remains a challenge to develop chiral polymers with high electroluminescence performance. Herein, by the acceptor copolymerization of axially chiral biphenyl emitting skeleton and benzophenone, a pair of axially chiral conjugated polymers namely R-PAC and S-PAC are synthesized. The target polymers exhibit obvious thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) activities with high photoluminescence quantum yields of 81%. Moreover, the chiral polymers display significant circularly polarized luminescence features, with luminescence dissymmetry factor (|glum|) of nearly 3 × 10-3. By using the chiral polymers as emitters, the corresponding circularly polarized organic light-emitting diodes (CP-OLEDs) exhibit efficient CPEL signals with electroluminescence dissymmetry factor |gEL| of 3.4 × 10-3 and high maximum external quantum efficiency (EQEmax) of 17.8%. Notably, considering both EQEmax and |gEL| comprehensively, the device performance of R-PAC and S-PAC is the best among all the reported CP-OLEDs with chiral conjugated polymers as emitters. This work provides a facile approach to constructing chiral conjugated TADF polymers and discloses the potential of axially chiral conjugated luminescent skeletons in architecting high-performance CP-OLEDs.

Abstract
The intrinsic helical π-conjugated skeleton makes helicenes highly promising for circularly polarized electroluminescence (CPEL). Generally, carbon helicenes undergo low external quantum efficiency (EQE), while the incorporation of a multi-resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) BN structure has led to an improvement. However, the reported B,N-embedded helicenes all show low electroluminescence dissymmetry factors (gEL), typically around 1×10-3. Therefore, the development of B,N-embedded helicenes with both a high EQE and gEL value is crucial for achieving highly efficient CPEL. Herein, a facile approach to synthesize B,N-embedded hetero[9]helicenes, BN[9]H, is presented. BN[9]H shows a bright photoluminescence with a maximum at 578 nm with a high luminescence dissymmetry factor (|glum|) up to 5.8×10-3, attributed to its inherited MR-TADF property and intrinsic helical skeleton. Furthermore, circularly polarized OLED devices incorporating BN[9]H as an emitter show a maximum EQE of 35.5 %, a small full width at half-maximum of 48 nm, and, more importantly, a high |gEL| value of 6.2×10-3. The Q-factor (|EQE×gEL|) of CP-OLEDs is determined to be 2.2×10-3, which is the highest among helicene analogues. This work provides a new approach for the synthesis of higher helicenes and paves a new way for the construction of highly efficient CPEL materials.

Abstract
Boosting the circularly polarized luminescence of small organic molecules has been a stubborn challenge because of weak structure rigidity and dynamic molecular motions. To investigate and eliminate these factors, here, we carried out the structure-property relationship studies on a newly-developed axial chiral scaffold of bidibenzo[b,d]furan. The molecular rigidity was finely tuned by gradually reducing the alkyl-chain length. The environmental factors were considered in solution, crystal, and polymer matrix at different temperatures. As a result, a significant amplification of the dissymmetry factor glum from 10-4 to 10-1 was achieved, corresponding to the situation from (R)-4C in solution to (R)-1C in polymer film at room temperature. A synergistic strategy of increasing the intramolecular rigidity and enhancing the intermolecular interaction to restrict the molecular motions was thus proposed to improve circularly polarized luminescence. The though-out demonstrated relationship will be of great importance for the development of high-performance small organic chiroptical systems in the future.

Abstract
Metal nanoclusters are excellent electrochemiluminescent luminophores owing to their rich electrochemical and optical properties. However, the optical activity of their electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is unknown. Herein, we achieved, for the first time, the integration of optical activity and ECL, i.e., circularly polarized electrochemiluminescence (CPECL), in a pair of chiral Au9Ag4 metal nanocluster enantiomers. Chiral ligand induction and alloying were employed to endow the racemic nanoclusters with chirality and photoelectrochemical reactivity. S-Au9Ag4 and R-Au9Ag4 exhibited chirality and bright-red emission (quantum yield = 4.2%) in the ground and excited states. The enantiomers showed mirror-imaged CPECL signals at 805 nm owing to their highly intense and stable ECL emission in the presence of tripropylamine as a co-reactant. The ECL dissymmetry factor of the enantiomers at 805 nm was calculated to be ±3 × 10-3, which is comparable with that obtained from their photoluminescence. The obtained nanocluster CPECL platform shows the discrimination of chiral 2-chloropropionic acid. The integration of optical activity and ECL in metal nanoclusters provides the opportunity to achieve enantiomer discrimination and local chirality detection with high sensitivity and contrast.

Abstract
Despite significant achievements in the field of chiroptical organic materials, the full utilization of both the excited state and ground state chiroptical properties in a single supramolecular system is still rarely disclosed. Here, we report that the rational combination of the charge-transfer (CT) interaction with the spacer effect and controlled protonation of π-histidine leads to chiroptical organic π-materials with both circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) and the supramolecular chirality-directed chiroptical photothermic effect. Three pyrene-conjugated histidine derivatives with varied acyl linkers (PyHis, PyC1His, and PyC3His) were designed to coassemble with electron-deficient 1,2,4,5-tetracyanobenzene (TCNB), leading to the formation of supramolecular CT complexes with intense orange to red CPL depending on the linker length. The linker length also affected the protonation-induced CPL responsiveness of the corresponding CT assemblies. Upon protonation of the histidine moiety, PyC3His/TCNB CT assemblies exhibited an inverted CPL signal, while PyHis/TCNB pairs gave quenched CPL due to the disassembly. The protonation-controlled PyC3His/TCNB CT assemblies at varied pH values showed different chiroptical photothermic effects (CPEs) for the same incident chiral light despite the molecular chirality of PyC3His remaining unchanged, supporting an interesting supramolecular chirality-directed photothermic effect.

Abstract
Circularly polarized electroluminescence (CP-EL) is generally produced in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) based on special CP luminescent (CPL) materials, while common achiral luminescent materials are rarely considered to be capable of direct producing CP-EL. Herein, near ultraviolet CPL materials with high photoluminescence quantum yields and good CPL dissymmetry factors are developed, which can induce blue to red CPL for various achiral luminescent materials. Strong near ultraviolet CP-EL with the best external quantum efficiencies (ηext s) of 9.0 % and small efficiency roll-offs are achieved by using them as emitters for CP-OLEDs. By adopting them as hosts or sensitizers, commercially available yellow-orange achiral phosphorescence, thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) and multi-resonance (MR) TADF materials can generate intense CP-EL, with high dissymmetry factors and outstanding ηext s (30.8 %), demonstrating a simple and universal avenue towards efficient CP-EL.

Abstract
It is well-known that high-performance circularly polarized organic light-emitting diodes (CP-OLEDs) remain a formidable challenge to the future application of circularly polarized luminescent (CPL)-active materials. Herein, the design of a pair of AIE-active chiral enantiomers (L/D-HP) is described to construct chiral co-assemblies with an achiral naphthalimide dye (NTi). The resulting co-assemblies emit an inverted CPL signal compared with that from the L/D-HP enantiomers. After thermal annealing at 120 °C, the inverted CPL signal of this kind of L/D-HP-NTi with a 1:1 molar ratio shows regular and ordered helical nanofibers arranged through intermolecularly ordered layered packing and is accompanied with a further amplified effect (|gem | = 0.032, λem = 535 nm). Significantly, non-doped CP-OLEDs based on a device emitting layer (EML) of L/D-HP-NTi exhibits a low turn-on voltage (Von ) of 4.7 V, a high maximum brightness (Lmax ) of 2001 cd m-2 , and moderate maximum external quantum efficiency (EQEmax ) of 2.3%, as well as excellent circularly polarized electroluminescence (CP-EL) (|gEL | = 0.023, λem = 533 nm).

Abstract
Two chiral binaphthyl polymers (R/S-P1 and R/S-P2) with different dihedral angles of the binaphthyl moiety were chosen as chiral inducers to construct chiral co-assemblies with an achiral pyrene-naphthalimide dye (NPy) and then acted as the emitting layer (EML) of circularly polarized electroluminescence (CP-EL) devices. The anchored dihedral angle of R/S-P2 not only exhibited the enhanced chirality signal, but also had a strong chirality-inducing effect on the achiral NPy dye in the chiral co-assembly (R/S-P2)0.6 -(NPy)0.4 . After annealing at 120 °C, the CPL signal (|gem |) of ordered helical nano-fibers (R/S-P2)0.6 -(NPy)0.4 was amplified to 5.6×10-2 , which was about 6-fold larger than that of (R/S-P1)0.6 -(NPy)0.4 . The amplified gem value of (R/S-P2)0.6 -(NPy)0.4 was due to the formation of a helical co-assembly through the strong π-π stacking interaction between the R/S-P2 and the achiral NPy. This kind of ordered helical nano-fibers (R/S-P2)0.6 -(NPy)0.4 acted as the EML of CP-OLEDs, and achieved an excellent CP-EL performance (|gEL |=4.8×10-2 ).

Abstract
Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) that can simultaneously achieve narrowband emission, high efficiency, and circularly polarized luminescence remain a formidable challenge. In this study, a simple strategy is developed to address this challenge. A chiral exciplex-forming co-host is first designed by employing a chiral donor and an achiral acceptor molecule. The chiral exciplex host enables an achiral green multiple-resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitter to achieve high-performance circularly polarized electroluminescence (CP-EL) with a high external quantum efficiency of 33.2%, large electroluminescence dissymmetry factor of 2.8 × 10-3 , and a small full-width at half-maximum of 42 nm. This work provides a general approach for realizing CP-EL using easily available achiral emitters and can significantly extend the scope of circularly polarized OLEDs.

Abstract
The combination of circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) and pure-organic room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) potentially facilitates the construction of organic chiroptical optoelectronics and display materials, which however are challenging to use in realizing smart control of luminescent colors and switchable chiroptical properties. Here, we show a host-guest strategy to fabricate color-tunable RTP-based circularly polarized phosphorescence. Napthalimides were conjugated directly to chiral segments, of which supramolecular chirality and CPL activities in solid-states could be triggered by substituting bromine atoms on amines. Introducing tetracyanobenzene as an achiral host matrix via simple grinding would allow for the intersystem crossing to trigger red RTP and corresponding CPL by excitation lower than 320 nm, with a large Stokes shift more than 300 nm. The critical excitation wavelength of the RTP switch is determined by the absorbance of tetracyanobenzene. When the excitation wavelength was larger than 320 nm, blue fluorescence dominated with turned off RTP and CPL. The excitation wavelength-dependent RTP and CPL switch allows for detecting ultraviolet (UV) light, showing distinguishable red-blue luminescent color transition, accompanied by on/off RTP. Changing the host matrix from tetracyanobenzene to tricyanobenzene or dicyanobenzene could adjust the critical detecting wavelength limit from 320 to 300 nm. This work establishes a strategy to realize color-tunable, UV light detectable RTP and CPL under smart control.

Abstract
Planar chiral organic fluorescent materials that exhibit high chiral stability, high efficiency and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) currently remain an unresolved issue despite their promising applications in optical encryption and 3D-display. Herein, a pair of new donor-chiral π-acceptor (D-π*-A) type planar chiral thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) enantiomers, namely R/S-PXZ-PT, are developed. Such a D-π*-A type structure completely suppresses the racemisation of the planar chirality, making it possible to prepare circularly polarized organic light-emitting diodes (CP-OLEDs) by vacuum deposition processing. Moreover, this design perfectly integrates the chiral unit into the luminescent unit to achieve intense CPL activity with luminescence asymmetry factors (glum) of ±1.9 × 10-3. Notably, the enantiomer-based devices exhibit a yellow coloured emission with a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 20.1%, and mirror-image circularly polarized electroluminescence signals with electroluminescence dissymmetry factors (gEL) of +1.5 × 10-3/-1.3 × 10-3. This work not only enriches the diversity of chiral TADF molecular design, but also provides a new perspective for the development of highly-efficient CP-OLEDs with stable planar chiral TADF materials.

Abstract
Here, we propose a mechanically interlocked strategy to achieve a 2D chiral polyrotaxane (2D CPR) monolayer with emergent and steerable CPL activity by utilizing β-cyclodextrin as the chiral wheel and a luminescent dynamic covalent organic framework as 2D polymeric axle. Such methodology, integrating host-guest and dynamic covalent chemistry, enabled the direct construction of a delaminated 2D CPR monolayer with extraordinarily large size (up to tens of micrometers) and simultaneously endowed chirality to the extended 2D CPR network to generate CPL activity. Importantly, not only the structure but also the CPL performance of the 2D CPR network can be further regulated by the feeding amount of β-cyclodextrin. This work demonstrated a monolayered 2D CPR with CPL activity for the first time. The insightful structure-property relationship of the induced CPL will be of benefit for a deeper understanding of the excited-state chirality of 2D chiral nanomaterials.

Abstract
A promising strategy of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) sensitized circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) has been proposed for improving the electroluminescence efficiencies of circularly polarized fluorescent emitters. Compared with chiral TADF emitters which suffer from the dilemma of small ΔEST accompanied by small kr , the TADF-sensitized CPL (TSCP) strategy using TADF molecules as sensitizers and CP-FL molecules as emitters might be the most promising method to construct high-performance circularly polarized organic light-emitting diodes (CP-OLEDs). Consequently, by taking advantage of the theoretically 100 % exciton utilization of TADF sensitizers, especially, by designing CP-FL emitters with high PLQY, narrow FWHM and large glum values, TSCP-type CP-OLEDs with excellent overall performances can be realized.

Abstract
A strategy of chiral donor-acceptor copolymerization is proposed to develop chiral nonconjugated polymers with thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF). Based on this strategy, two pairs of chiral polymers (R,R)-/(S,S)-pTpAcDPS and (R,R)-/(S,S)-pTpAcBP were synthesized. The alternating copolymerization of the chiral donors and acceptors could effectively separate the frontier molecular orbitals, which made the polymers show small ΔEST of 0.01-0.03 eV and efficient TADF properties. Moreover, the polymers also showed the quantum yield of up to 92 % and the circularly polarized luminescence. The solution-processed circularly polarized organic light-emitting diodes showed circularly polarized electroluminescence signals with high external quantum efficiencies of up to 22.1 % and maximum luminance of up to 34350 cd m-2 . This is the first report of CP-OLEDs based on chiral TADF polymer, which provides a useful and valuable guidance for the development of high-efficiency CPEL polymers.
