In organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), injected charge carriers can undergo thermal relaxation processes. At low temperatures and high magnetic fields, where the Zeeman energy is comparable with the thermal energy, spin polarization can have a remarkable impact on the spin statistics of the electron-hole recombination process, which is monitored directly by electroluminescence. Here, we sensitize an organic semiconductor with a metal-free phenazine derivative which exhibits simultaneous fluorescence and phosphorescence. This approach allows us to study the impact of spin polarization on spin statistics directly through the ratio of fluorescence and phosphorescence, i.e. in an all-optical manner. Thermal spin polarization leads to an increase in phosphorescence with a concomitant decrease in fluorescence. Besides providing insight into carrier thermalization processes, the approach also offers a route to probing the effect of spin-orbit coupling on spin statistics.
