Popis: Key parameters of exciplex emission energy and efficiency were elucidated by synthesizing two electron donor type hosts derived from carbazole and diphenylamine. The two hosts were mixed with an electron acceptor type host to make exciplexes. Investigation of the exciplex emission characteristics revealed that the distance between the HOMO of the donor type host and the LUMO of the acceptor type host is critical to the emission energy and efficiency. The exciplex which has short intermolecular distance between HOMO and LUMO showed low emission energy and high device efficiency possibly due to strong exciton binding and extensive HOMO-LUMO overlap. Therefore, it was found that intermolecular HOMO and LUMO distance is also a key factor affecting the device performances of exciplexes.
