New fluorescent D-A-D dyes containing 9-(p-tolyl)-2,3,4,4a,9,9a-hexahydro-1H-carbazole as a donor unit and 2,1,3-benzochalcogenadiazoles as an electron-withdrawing group were synthesized. The photoluminescent and electroluminescent properties of novel dyes for fluorescent OLED application were investigated. It was demonstrated that the replacement of lightweight heteroatoms by heavier ones enables the fine tuning of the maximum emission without significantly reducing the luminescence quantum yield. The maximum quantum yield value of 62.6% for derivatives based on 2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (1a) in cyclohexane was achieved. Two devices with the architecture of glass/ITO/PEDOT-PSS/poly-TPD/EML/TPBi/LiF/Al (EML = emitting layer) were fabricated to check the suitability of the synthesized compounds as a single active emission layer in OLED. These OLEDs exhibited clear red electroluminescence of the dyes with the maximum current efficiency of 0.85 Cd/A.

Solution-processed blue phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PHOLEDs) based on a single emission layer with small-molecule hole-transport materials (HTMs) are demonstrated. Various HTMs have been readily incorporated by solution-processing to enhance hole-transport properties of the polymer-based emission layer. Poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK)-based blue emission layer with iridium(III) bis(4,6-(di-fluorophenyl)pyridinato-N,C2′)picolinate (FIrpic) triplet emitter blended with solution-processed 1,1-bis[(di-4-tolylamino)phenyl]cyclohexane (TAPC) gave luminous efficiency of 21.1 cd/A at a brightness of 6220 cd/m2 with an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 10.6%. Blue PHOLEDs with solution-incorporated HTMs turned out to be 50% more efficient compared to the reference device without HTMs. The high hole mobility, high triplet energy of HTM, and favorable energy transfer between HTM blended PVK host and FIrpic blue dopant were found to be important factors for achieving high device performance. The results are instructive to design and/or select proper hole-transport materials in solution-processed single emission layer.

ABSTRACTOrganic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) are developing into a competitive alternative to conventional light sources. Nevertheless, OLEDs need further improvement in terms of efficiency and color rendering for lighting applications. Fluorescent blue emitters allow deep blue emission and high stability, while phosphorescent blue emitter still suffer from insufficient stability. The concept of triplet harvesting is the key for achieving internal quantum efficiencies up to 100 % and simultaneously benefiting from the advantages of fluorescent blue emitters. Here, we present a stacked OLED consisting of two units comprising four different emitters in total. The first unit takes advantage of the concept of triplet harvesting and combines the light emission of a fluorescent blue and a phosphorescent red emitter. The second unit emits light from a single emission layer consisting of a matrix doped with phosphorescent green and yellow emitters. With this approach, we reach white color coordinates close to the standard illuminant A and a color rendering index of above 75. The presented devices are characterized by high luminous efficacies of above 30 lm/W on standard glass substrates without outcoupling enhancement.

AbstractEnhanced performance has been observed for plastic molecular organic light emitting diodes (MOLEDs) consisting of two to four organic layers sequentially vacuum vapor deposited onto patterned indium-tin oxide (ITO) on polyester films. For all device structures studied, the performance of plastic diodes is comparable to or better than their analogs on glass substrates. At 100 A/m2, a luminous power efficiency of 4.4 lm/W and external quantum yield of 2.7% are measured for a device structure consisting of two hole transport layers, a doped emitting layer and an electron transport layer on a polyester substrate. The same device made on a silica substrate has a luminous power efficiency of 3.5 lm/W and external quantum yield of 2.3%. Electrical and optical performance for comparable device structures has been characterized by current-voltage-luminance measurements and electroluminescence spectra collected normal to the emitting surface. In addition, an integrating sphere was used to collect the total light emitted and to determine the optical output coupling on glass versus plastic substrates.
