Recent Applications of Interfacial Exciplex as Ideal Host of Power-Efficient OLEDs.

ABSTRACT: Currently, exploring the applications of intermolecular donor-acceptor exciplex couple as host of OLEDs with phosphorescence, thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) or fluorescence emitter as dopant is a hot topic. Compared to other host strategies, interfacial exciplex has the advantage in various aspects, such as barrier-free charge injection, unimpeded charge transport, and the energy-saving direct exciton formation process at the "Well"-like heterojunction interface region. Most importantly, due to a very fast and efficient reverse intersystem-crossing (RISC) process, such a host is capable of regulating singlet/triplet exciton populations in itself as well as in the dopant emitters both under photoluminescent (PL) and electroluminescent (EL) driving conditions. In this mini-review, we briefly summarize and comment on recent applications of this ideal host in OLEDs (including both thermal-evaporation OLEDs and solution-processed OLEDs) with diverse emitters, e.g., fluorescence, phosphorescence, delayed fluorescence, or others. Special attention is given to illustrate the peculiar achievement of high overall EL performance with superiorities of low driving voltages, slow roll-off rate, high power efficiencies and satisfied device lifetime using this host strategy, which is then concluded by personal perspectives on the relevant next-step in this field.

Highly efficient red OLEDs using DCJTB as the dopant and delayed fluorescent exciplex as the host.

Project description:In this manuscript, we demonstrated a highly efficient DCJTB emission with delayed fluorescent exciplex TCTA:3P-T2T as the host. For the 1.0% DCJTB doped concentration, a maximum luminance, current efficiency, power efficiency and EQE of 22,767 cd m(-2), 22.7 cd A(-1), 21.5 lm W(-1) and 10.15% were achieved, respectively. The device performance is the best compared to either red OLEDs with traditional fluorescent emitter or traditional red phosphor of Ir(piq)3 doped into CBP host. The extraction of so high efficiency can be explained as the efficient triplet excitons up-conversion of TCTA:3P-T2T and the energy transfer from exciplex host singlet state to DCJTB singlet state.

Development of Red Exciplex for Efficient OLEDs by Employing a Phosphor as a Component.

Project description:Exciplexes are ideal candidates as effective thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters. However, efficient orange and red TADF exciplexes have been reported seldomly, because their significant non-radiative (NR) decay of excited states lead to unavoidable energy loss. Herein, we propose a novel strategy to construct efficient red TADF exciplexes by introducing phosphor as one component. Due to the strong spin-orbit coupling of heavy metal (e.g., Ir, Pt, et al.) ion cores, the NR decays will be evidently decreased for both singlet and triplet excitons, reducing the undesired exciton waste. Moreover, compared with the conventional exciplexes, phosphorescence plays an important role for such novel exciplexes, further improving the exciton utilization. Based on this strategy, we fabricated a red exciplex containing 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyl)tris(benzene-3,1-diyl)tris(diphenylphosphine oxide) (PO-T2T) and tris(2-phenylpyridine) iridium(III) (Ir(ppy)3) as components and realize a red emission with a peak at 604 nm, a CIE coordinate of (0.55, 0.44), and a high maximum external quantum efficiency of 5% in organic light-emitting device. This efficiency is 2.6 times higher than that of the device based on the conventional red exciplex emitter, proving the superiority of our novel strategy to construct TADF exciplexes with phosphors.

<i>N</i>-Benzoimidazole/Oxadiazole Hybrid Universal Electron Acceptors for Highly Efficient Exciplex-Type Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence OLEDs.

Project description:Recently, donor/acceptor type exciplex have attracted considerable interests due to the low driving voltages and small singlet-triplet bandgaps for efficient reverse intersystem crossing to achieve 100% excitons for high efficiency thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) OLEDs. Herein, two N-linked benzoimidazole/oxadiazole hybrid electron acceptors were designed and synthesized through simple catalyst-free C-N coupling reaction. 24iPBIOXD and iTPBIOXD exhibited deep-blue emission with peak at 421 and 459 nm in solution, 397 and 419 nm at film state, respectively. The HOMO/LUMO energy levels were -6.14/-2.80 for 24iPBIOXD and -6.17/-2.95 eV for iTPBIOXD. Both compounds could form exciplex with conventional electron donors such as TAPC, TCTA, and mCP. It is found that the electroluminescent performance for exciplex-type OLEDs as well as the delayed lifetime was dependent with the driving force of both HOMO and LUMO energy offsets on exciplex formation. The delayed lifetime from 579 to 2,045 ns was achieved at driving forces close to or larger than 1 eV. Two TAPC based devices possessing large HOMO/LUMO offsets of 1.09-1.34 eV exhibited the best EL performance, with maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 9.3% for 24iPBIOXD and 7.0% for iTPBIOXD acceptor. The TCTA containing exciplex demonstrated moderate energy offsets (0.88-1.03 eV) and EL efficiency (~4%), while mCP systems showed the poorest EL performance (EQE <1%) and shortest delayed lifetime of <100 ns due to inadequate driving force of 0.47-0.75 eV for efficient exciplex formation.

Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence in Commercially Available Materials for Solution-Process Exciplex OLEDs.

Project description:Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have developed rapidly in recent years. Thermally activated delayed fluorescent (TADF) molecules open a path to increase exciton collection efficiency from 25% to 100%, and the solution process provides an alternative technology to achieve lower cost OLEDs more easily. To develop commercial materials as exciplex hosts for high-performance and solution-processed OLEDs, we attempted to use 4,4'-cyclohexylidenebis[N,N-bis(4-methylphenyl)benzenamine (TAPC), poly(9-vinylcarbazole) (PVK), N,N'-Di(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl-(1,1'-biphenyl)-4,4'-diamine (NPB), and poly(N,N'-bis-4-butylphenyl-N,N'-bisphenyl)benzidine (Poly-TPD) as the donors and 2,4,6-tris[3-(diphenylphosphinyl)phenyl]-1,3,5-triazine (POT2T) as the acceptor to obtain the TADF effect. All donors and the acceptor were purchased from chemical suppliers. Our work shows that excellent TADF properties and high-efficiency exciplex OLEDs with low turn-on voltage and high luminance can be achieved with a simple combination of commercial materials.

Pyridinyl-Carbazole Fragments Containing Host Materials for Efficient Green and Blue Phosphorescent OLEDs.

Project description:Pyridinyl-carbazole fragments containing low molar mass compounds as host derivatives H1 and H2 were synthesized, investigated, and used for the preparation of electro-phosphorescent organic light-emitting devices (PhOLEDs). The materials demonstrated high stability against thermal decomposition with the decomposition temperatures of 361-386 °C and were suitable for the preparation of thin amorphous and homogeneous layers with very high values of glass transition temperatures of 127-139 °C. It was determined that triplet energy values of the derivatives are, correspondingly, 2.82 eV for the derivative H1 and 2.81 eV for the host H2. The new derivatives were tested as hosts of emitting layers in blue, as well as in green phosphorescent OLEDs. The blue device with 15 wt.% of the iridium(III)[bis(4,6-difluorophenyl)-pyridinato-N,C2']picolinate (FIrpic) emitter doping ratio in host material H2 exhibited the best overall characteristics with a power efficiency of 24.9 lm/W, a current efficiency of 23.9 cd/A, and high value of 10.3% of external quantum efficiency at 100 cd/m2. The most efficient green PhOLED with 10 wt% of Ir(ppy)3 {tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium(III)} in the H2 host showed a power efficiency of 34.1 lm/W, current efficiency of 33.9 cd/A, and a high value of 9.4% for external quantum efficiency at a high brightness of 1000 cd/m2, which is required for lighting applications. These characteristics were obtained in non-optimized PhOLEDs under an ordinary laboratory atmosphere and could be improved in the optimization process. The results demonstrate that some of the new host materials are very promising components for the development of efficient phosphorescent devices.

Achieving efficient power generation by designing bioinspired and multi-layered interfacial evaporator.

Project description:Water evaporation is a natural phase change phenomenon occurring any time and everywhere. Enormous efforts have been made to harvest energy from this ubiquitous process by leveraging on the interaction between water and materials with tailored structural, chemical and thermal properties. Here, we develop a multi-layered interfacial evaporation-driven nanogenerator (IENG) that further amplifies the interaction by introducing additional bionic light-trapping structure for efficient light to heat and electric generation on the top and middle of the device. Notable, we also rationally design the bottom layer for sufficient water transport and storage. We demonstrate the IENG performs a spectacular continuous power output as high as 11.8 μW cm-2 under optimal conditions, more than 6.8 times higher than the currently reported average value. We hope this work can provide a new bionic strategy using multiple natural energy sources for effective power generation.

Power-efficient low-temperature woven coiled fibre actuator for wearable applications.

Project description:A fibre actuator that generates a large strain with high specific power represents a promising strategy to develop novel wearable devices and robotics. We propose a new coiled-fibre actuator based on highly drawn, hard linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) fibres. Driven by resistance heating, the actuator can be operated at temperatures as low as 60 °C and uses only 20% of the power consumed by previously coiled fibre actuators when generating 20 MPa of stress at 10% strain. In this temperature range, 1600 W kg-1 of specific work (8 times that of a skeletal muscle) at 69 MPa of tensile stress (230 times that of a skeletal muscle) with a work efficiency of 2% is achieved. The actuator generates strain as high as 23% at 90 °C. Given the low driving temperature, the actuator can be combined with common fabrics or stretchable conductive elastomers without thermal degradation, allowing for easy use in wearable systems. Nanostructural analysis implies that the lamellar crystals in drawn LLDPE fibres are weakly bridged with each other, which allows for easy deformation into compact helical shapes via twisting and the generation of large strain with high work efficiency.

Efficient Magneto-Luminescent Nanosystems based on Rhodamine-Loaded Magnetite Nanoparticles with Optimized Heating Power and Ideal Thermosensitive Fluorescence.

Project description:Nanosystems that simultaneously contain fluorescent and magnetic modules can offer decisive advantages in the development of new biomedical approaches. A biomaterial that enables multimodal imaging and contains highly efficient nanoheaters together with an intrinsic temperature sensor would become an archetypical theranostic agent. In this work, we have designed a magneto-luminescent system based on Fe3O4 NPs with large heating power and thermosensitive rhodamine (Rh) fluorophores that exhibits the ability to self-monitor the hyperthermia degree. Three samples composed of highly homogeneous Fe3O4 NPs of ∼25 nm and different morphologies (cuboctahedrons, octahedrons, and irregular truncated-octahedrons) have been finely synthesized. These NPs have been thoroughly studied in order to choose the most efficient inorganic core for magnetic hyperthermia under clinically safe radiofrequency. Surface functionalization of selected Fe3O4 NPs has been carried out using fluorescent copolymers composed of PMAO, PEG and Rh. Copolymers with distinct PEG tail lengths (5-20 kDa) and different Rh percentages (5, 10, and 25%) have been synthesized, finding out that the copolymer with 20 kDa PEG and 10% Rh provides the best coating for an efficient fluorescence with minimal aggregation effects. The optimized Fe3O4@Rh system offers very suitable fluorescence thermosensitivity in the therapeutic hyperthermia range. Additionally, this sample presents good biocompatibility and displays an excellent heating capacity within the clinical safety limits of the AC field (≈ 1000 W/g at 142 kHz and 44 mT), which has been confirmed by both calorimetry and AC magnetometry. Thus, the current work opens up promising avenues toward next-generation medical technologies.

Management of Exciton Distribution for High-Performance Organic Light-Emitting Diodes Based on Interfacial Exciplex Architecture.

Project description:Interfacial exciplex has recently been adopted as an effective host to achieve phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) with high efficiencies and low driving voltages. However, a systematic understanding of exciton recombination behavior in either host of interfacial exciplex is still deficient. Herein, the strategic design rule of interfacial exciplex host is proposed to overcome the negative effects of direct trapping recombination by systematically investigating exciton recombination behavior in interfacial exciplex hosts. As a result, blue and orange phosphorescent devices acquire peak external quantum efficiencies of 23.5% and 29.2% with low turn-on voltages. These results provide a simple method to realize highly efficient OLEDs aiming for general lighting and display applications.

Blended host ink for solution processing high performance phosphorescent OLEDs.

Project description:In order to solve the interface issues in solution deposition of multilayer OLED devices, a blended host concept was developed and applied to both spin-coating and inkjet printing of phosphorescent OLEDs. The blended host consists of 1,3-bis(carbazolyl)benzene (mCP) and1,3,5-tri(phenyl-2-benzimidazoly)-benzene (TPBi). Maximum current efficiency (CE) of 24.2 cd A-1 and external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 7.0% have been achieved for spin-coated device. Maximum CE and EQE of 23.0 cd A-1 and 6.7% have been achieved for inkjet printed device. The films deposited by printing and spin-casting were further researched to explore the effect of those different processing methods on device performance.
