Insight into effect of deuterium isotopes on organic near‐IR (NIR) emitters was explored by the use of self‐assembled Pt(II) complexes H‐3‐f and HPh‐3‐f, and their deuterated analogues D‐3‐f and DPh‐3‐f, respectively (Scheme 2). In vacuum deposited thin film, albeit having nearly identical emission spectral feature maximized at ~810 nm, H‐3‐f and D‐3‐f exhibit remarkable difference in photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of 29 % and 50 %, respectively. Distinction in PLQY is also observed for HPh‐3‐f (800 nm, 50 %) and DPh‐3‐f (798 nm, 67 %). We then elucidated the theoretical differences in the impact on near‐infrared (NIR) luminescence between Pt(II) complexes and organic small molecules upon deuteration. The results establish a general guideline for the deuteration on NIR emission efficiency. From a perspective of practical application, NIR OLEDs based on D‐3‐f and DPh‐3‐f emitters attain EQEmax of 15.5 % (radiance 31,287 mW Sr−1 m−2) and 16.6 % (radiance of 32,279 mW Sr−1 m−2) at 764 nm and 796 nm, respectively, both of which set new records for NIR OLEDs of >750 nm.
