title: Luminescent neutral platinum complexes bearing an asymmetric N(^) N(^) N ligand for high-performance solution-processed OLEDs.
abstract: The synthesis and full characterization of new platinum complexes bearing a bulky asymmetric dianionic tridentate ligand is reported. The hindrance of the ligand prevents detrimental intermolecular interactions yielding to highly emitting species in both crystalline state and thin-film. Such properties prompted their successful use in solution-processed OLEDs, showing remarkable external quantum efficiency up to 5.6%.
