| Abstract: | Herein, 9,10‐dihydro‐9,9‐dimethylacridine (Ac) or phenoxazine (PXZ)‐substituted isonicotinonitrile (INN) derivatives, denoted as 2AcINN , 26AcINN , and 26PXZINN , were developed as a series of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters. These emitters showed reasonably high photoluminescence quantum yields of 71–79 % in the host films and high power efficiency organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs). Sky‐blue emitter 26AcINN exhibited a low turn‐on voltage of 2.9 V, a high external quantum efficiency (η ext) of 22 %, and a high power efficiency (η p) of 66 lm W?1 with Commission Internationale de l′Eclairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinates of (0.22, 0.45), whereas green emitter 26PXZINN exhibited a low turn‐on voltage of 2.2 V, a high η ext of 22 %, and a high η p of 99 lm W?1 with CIE chromaticity coordinates of (0.37, 0.58). These performances are among the best for TADF OLEDs to date. |
