Organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs) have attracted extensive attention throughout the world due to their potential advantages in full-color flat-panel displays such as low voltage, weight, high efficiency and fast response, etc. The development of devices and materials has attracted more attention. According to different electroluminescent mechanism, the materials of OLEDs include fluorescent materials and phosphorescent materials. Recently, blue fluorescent materials become a hot spot in research and play an important role in the developing of OLEDs and possess much more superiority than phosphorescent materials. In this article, we described and summarized recent progress of blue delayed fluorescent materials. The trend and development were finally prospected.
- blue fluorescent materials,
- organic light-emitting diodes,
- thermally activated delayed fluorescence
