Naphtalimide-Based Bipolar Derivatives Enabling High-Efficiency OLEDs.

ABSTRACT: Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have revolutionized the world of technology, making significant contributions to enhancing our everyday lives. With their exceptional display and lighting capabilities, OLEDs have become indispensable in various industries such as smartphones, tablets, televisions, and automotives. They have emerged as a dominant technology, inspiring continuous advancements, and improvements. Taking inspiration from the remarkable advancements in OLED advancements, we have successfully developed naphtalimide-based compounds, namely RB-08, RB-09, RB-10, and RB-11. These compounds exhibit desirable characteristics such as a wide bandgap, high decomposition temperatures (306-366 °C), and very high glass transition temperatures (133-179 °C). Leveraging these exceptional properties, we have harnessed these compounds as green emitters in the aforementioned devices. Among the various fabricated OLEDs, the one incorporating the RB-11 emitter has exhibited superior performance. This specific configuration achieved maximum power efficacy of 7.7 lm/W, current efficacy of 7.9 cd/A, and external quantum efficiency of 3.3%. These results highlight the outstanding capabilities of our synthesized emitter and its potential for further advancements in the field.
