Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence in a Y(3)N@C(80) Endohedral Fullerene: Time‐Resolved Luminescence and EPR Studies

The endohedral fullerene Y(3)N@C(80) exhibits luminescence with reasonable quantum yield and extraordinary long lifetime. By variable‐temperature steady‐state and time‐resolved luminescence spectroscopy, it is demonstrated that above 60 K the Y(3)N@C(80) exhibits thermally activated delayed fluoresc...

Sumario:The endohedral fullerene Y(3)N@C(80) exhibits luminescence with reasonable quantum yield and extraordinary long lifetime. By variable‐temperature steady‐state and time‐resolved luminescence spectroscopy, it is demonstrated that above 60 K the Y(3)N@C(80) exhibits thermally activated delayed fluorescence with maximum emission at 120 K and a negligible prompt fluorescence. Below 60 K, a phosphorescence with a lifetime of 192±1 ms is observed. Spin distribution and dynamics in the triplet excited state is investigated with X‐ and W‐band EPR and ENDOR spectroscopies and DFT computations. Finally, electroluminescence of the Y(3)N@C(80)/PFO film is demonstrated opening the possibility for red‐emitting fullerene‐based organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs).
