Engineering a low singlet-triplet energy gap ({Delta}EST) is necessary for efficient reverse intersystem crossing (rISC) in delayed fluorescence (DF) organic semiconductors, but results in a small radiative rate that limits performance in LEDs. Here, we study a model DF material, BF2, that exhibits a strong optical absorption (absorption coefficient =3.8x10^5 cm^-1) and a relatively large {Delta}EST of 0.2 eV. In isolated BF2 molecules, intramolecular rISC is slow (260 {mu}s), but in aggregated films, BF2 generates intermolecular CT (inter-CT) states on picosecond timescales. In contrast to the microsecond intramolecular rISC that is promoted by spin-orbit interactions in most isolated DF molecules, photoluminescence-detected magnetic resonance shows that these inter-CT states undergo rISC mediated by hyperfine interactions on a ~24 ns timescale and have an average electron-hole separation of >1.5 nm. Transfer back to the emissive singlet exciton then enables efficient DF and LED operation. Thus, access to these inter-CT states resolves the conflicting requirements of fast radiative emission and low {Delta}EST.
Bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) non-fullerene organic solar cells prepared from sequentially deposited donor and acceptor layers (sq-BHJ) have recently been promising to be highly efficient, environmentally friendly, and compatible with large area and roll
Thermally-activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) enables organic semiconductors with charge transfer (CT)-type excitons to convert dark triplet states into bright singlets via a reverse intersystem crossing (rISC) process. Here, we consider the role o

The maximum efficiency in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) depends on the ratio, $r=k_S/k_T$, where $k_S$ ($k_T$) is the singlet (triplet) exciton formation rate. Several recent experiments found that r increases with increasing oligomer length
