The development of efficient deep-blue emitters is one of the key issues in organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs). As a promising technology that realizes 100% conversion from electrons to photons, thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters have attracted considerable attention. However, only a few efficient deep-blue TADF emitters have been reported to date. Here, we molecularly manipulated the electronic excited state energies of pyrimidine-based TADF emitters to realize deep-blue emission. We then systematically investigate the relationships among the chemical structure and optical properties. The resultant novel pyrimidine emitters called Ac-XMHPMs (X = 1, 2, and 3) contain different numbers of bulky methyl substituents at acceptor moieties, increasing the excited singlet and triplet state energies. Among them, Ac-3MHPM, with a high triplet state energy of 2.95 eV exhibits a high peak external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 18% and an EQE of 10% at 100 cd/m2 with Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage chromaticity coordinates of (0.16, 0.15). These efficiencies are among the highest values to date for deep-blue TADF-OLEDs.
