Abstract

Organic radicals with fluorescence from doublet-spin energy manifolds circumvent efficiency limits from singlet–triplet photophysics in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). The singly occupied molecular orbital (SOMO) in radicals enables the higher potential performance. The SOMO also presents sub...
