A multiple resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) molecule with a fused, planar architecture tends to aggregate at high doping ratios, resulting in broad full width half maximum (FWHM), redshifting electroluminescence peaks, and low device efficiency. Herein, we propose mono-substituted design strategy by introducing spiro-9,9'-bifluorene (SBF) units different substituted sites into the MR-TADF system for first time.
