Abstract
The impact of metal atom on the photophysical properties of luminescent organometallic carbene-metal-amide complexes exhibiting through-space charge transfer is investigated. The substitution of copper atom with gold alters the excited state energy level configuration of the emitter. While in the copper-based emitters the lowest triplet excited state (T1) is related to a through-space charge transfer between the carbazolide donor and carbene-bound phenylsulphonyl acceptor, in the gold-bearing structural analogue T1 level is accompanied by an additional closely situated triplet state T2, which features a charge transfer between the carbazolide donor and imidazolidine carbene acceptor. Because of a significant spin-orbit coupling provided by Au atom T2 state exhibits relatively fast phosphorescence rate of 8×104 s-1. Consequently, the emissive process for the gold-functionalized compound can be characterized with a co-occurring thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) and phosphorescence, in contrast to the copper-based structural analogues, where only TADF is observed.
