Effect of hybridized local and charge transfer molecules rotation in excited state on exciton utilization

Abstract The fluorescent molecules utilizing hybridized local and charge-transfer (HLCT) state as potential organic light-emitting diodes materials attract extensive attention due to their high exciton utilization. In this work, we have performed the density functional theory method on three HLCT-st...
