First, several donor:acceptor-based TADF systems forming exciplex states were investigated. Afterwards, a TADF emitter that shows intramolecular charge transfer states but also forms exciplex states with a proper donor molecule was studied. The primary experimental technique was electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), in particular the advanced methods electroluminescence detected magnetic resonance (ELDMR), photoluminescence detected magnetic resonance (PLDMR) and electrically detected magnetic resonance (EDMR). Additional information was gathered from time-resolved and continuous wave photoluminescence measurements.}, subject = {Elektronenspinresonanz}, language = {en} }
