Anisotropic 1D nanostructures with high surface-area-to-volume ratio display the enhanced optoelectronic properties of light-emitting compounds compared to bulk or 2D systems. To study the effect of nanometer-constrained space on photoluminescent behavior of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) polymeric emitters, electrospinning technique is used to produce nanofibers of TADF emitters. Herein, two TADF polymer (P1 and P3) nanofibers with 90% polyacrylonitrile (PAN) are fabricated and their photophysical properties are studied and compared with their spin-coated film counterparts. The distinguishing polarized photoluminescencent properties of P1/PAN or P3/PAN electrospun nanofibers are obtained due to high orientation degree and superior molecular arrangement. Moreover, the better TADF properties in nanofibers can be observed comparing with their spin-coated films, including longer-lived excited states, higher photoluminescence quantum efficiency, lower internal conversion decay rate, and higher reverse intersystem crossing rate constant.
