Abstract

The C3 meta-position of fluorene is utilized to construct high-triplet energy compounds. Incorporating a spiroacridine structure, two new host materials SAFDPA and SAFCz were facilely obtained. Their thermal and photophysical properties are fully investigated. The best efficiencies of 19.4%/21.5% of blue/white devices are achieved by SAFCz.
