Materials Science · OLED & Emitter Screening

Screening 400 emitter candidates used to mean — 400 DFT jobs

Without running a separate excited-state calculation for each candidate, without manually inspecting HOMO/LUMO maps, without a DFT queue. Provide SMILES. Get emission wavelength, TADF suitability, and device role classification — in minutes, not days.

“Find me a blue OLED emitter from this library of 400 candidates, ranked by singlet-triplet gap for TADF suitability.”

How it works

01

Provide SMILES

Geometry optimizes via ANI-2x or MACE in milliseconds. No conformer setup, no input file preparation.

02

Frontier orbitals and device classification

predict_frontier_orbitals returns HOMO, LUMO, gap, S1/T1 energies, oscillator strength, and device role — emitter, charge transport, host, or not emissive. 14 OLED-relevant functional-group motifs detected automatically (carbazole, triphenylamine, anthracene, pyrene, oxadiazole, triazine, Ir/Pt complexes).

03

Excited-state ladder for top candidates

run_excited_states returns the full singlet/triplet ladder via sTDA-xTB with oscillator strengths. Screen for TADF suitability (small singlet-triplet gap) or phosphorescent emitters.

Proof

Anthracene S1: 3.249 eV computed vs 3.3 eV experimental (0.05 eV error). T1: 1.805 eV vs 1.8 eV (0.005 eV error).

Carbazole: correctly classified as UV emission / charge transport. Ethanol: correctly returns not_emissive (no OLED motifs).

14 detected motifs: carbazole, triphenylamine, anthracene, pyrene, oxadiazole, triazine, Ir/Pt complexes, and others.
