Recent progress in molecularly tailored organic hole transporting materials for highly efficient perovskite solar cells Over the last decade, perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have made remarkable progress, with power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of single junction devices now surpassing >26%. A key component of this adv...

Singlet–triplet gaps for evaluating thermally activated delayed fluorescence: which one is the (b)EST? The singlet–triplet energy gap (ΔEST) serves as a central screening parameter for new thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials, and is a valuable indicator of eventual OLED performance. Surprisingly though, various measurement methodologies and reporting standards for ΔEST persist across the resear
