Color-Stable White Organic Light-Emitting Diodes Utilizing a Blue-Emitting Electron-Transport Layer.

ABSTRACT: We have fabricated efficient and color-stable white organic light-emitting diodes (WOLEDs) based on a simple double-layer device structure consisting of a blue-emitting oligoquinoline electron-transport layer and a poly(N-vinyl carbazole) layer doped with phosphorescent green and red iridium emitters. Pure white color with the CIE coordinates from (0.30, 0.31) to (0.34, 0.37) in the whole operating bias voltage range and luminous efficiency higher than 7 cd/A at a brightness up to 12?000 cd/m² was achieved. These results demonstrate a new strategy to realizing easily processable, highly efficient, and color-stable WOLEDs with a simple structure.

Color-stable highly luminescent sky-blue perovskite light-emitting diodes.

Project description:Perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) have shown excellent performance in the green and near-infrared spectral regions, with high color purity, efficiency, and brightness. In order to shift the emission wavelength to the blue, compositional engineering (anion mixing) and quantum-confinement engineering (reduced-dimensionality) have been employed. Unfortunately, LED emission profiles shift with increasing driving voltages due to either phase separation or the coexistence of multiple crystal domains. Here we report color-stable sky-blue PeLEDs achieved by enhancing the phase monodispersity of quasi-2D perovskite thin films. We selected cation combinations that modulate the crystallization and layer thickness distribution of the domains. The perovskite films show a record photoluminescence quantum yield of 88% at 477?nm. The corresponding PeLEDs exhibit stable sky-blue emission under high operation voltages. A maximum luminance of 2480?cd?m-2 at 490?nm is achieved, fully one order of magnitude higher than the previous record for quasi-2D blue PeLEDs.

Spectra stable blue perovskite light-emitting diodes.

Project description:Device performance and in particular device stability for blue perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) remain considerable challenges for the whole community. In this manuscript, we conceive an approach by tuning the 'A-site' cation composition of perovskites to develop blue-emitters. We herein report a Rubidium-Cesium alloyed, quasi-two-dimensional perovskite and demonstrate its great potential for pure-blue PeLED applications. Composition engineering and in-situ passivation are conducted to further improve the material's emission property and stabilities. Consequently, we get a prominent film photoluminescence quantum yield of around 82% under low excitation density. Encouraged by these findings, we finally achieve a spectra-stable blue PeLED with the peak external quantum efficiency of 1.35% and a half-lifetime of 14.5 min, representing the most efficient and stable pure-blue PeLEDs reported so far. The strategy is also demonstrated to be able to generate efficient perovskite blue emitters and PeLEDs in the whole blue spectral region (from 454 to 492 nm).

Color-Stable Blue Light-Emitting Diodes Enabled by Effective Passivation of Mixed Halide Perovskites.

Project description:Bandgap tuning through mixing halide anions is one of the most attractive features for metal halide perovskites. However, mixed halide perovskites usually suffer from phase segregation under electrical biases. Herein, we obtain high-performance and color-stable blue perovskite LEDs (PeLEDs) based on mixed bromide/chloride three-dimensional (3D) structures. We demonstrate that the color instability of CsPb(Br1-xClx)3 PeLEDs results from surface defects at perovskite grain boundaries. By effective defect passivation, we achieve color-stable blue electroluminescence from CsPb(Br1-xClx)3 PeLEDs, with maximum external quantum efficiencies of up to 4.5% and high luminance of up to 5351 cd m-2 in the sky-blue region (489 nm). Our work provides new insights into the color instability issue of mixed halide perovskites and can spur new development of high-performance and color-stable blue PeLEDs.

Blue emitting exciplex for yellow and white organic light-emitting diodes.

Project description:White organic light-emitting diodes (WOLEDs) have several desirable features, but their commercialization is hindered by the poor stability of blue light emitters and high production costs due to complicated device structures. Herein, we investigate a standard blue emitting hole transporting material (HTM) N,N'-bis(naphthalen-1-yl)-N,N'-bis(phenyl)benzidine (NPB) and its exciplex emission upon combining with a suitable electron transporting material (ETM), 3-(biphenyl-4-yl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-4-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole (TAZ). Blue and yellow OLEDs with simple device structures are developed by using a blend layer, NPB:TAZ, as a blue emitter as well as a host for yellow phosphorescent dopant iridium (III) bis(4-phenylthieno[3,2-c]pyridinato-N,C2')acetylacetonate (PO-01). Strategic device design then exploits the ambipolar charge transport properties of tetracene as a spacer layer to connect these blue and yellow emitting units. The tetracene-linked device demonstrates more promising results compared to those using a conventional charge generation layer (CGL). Judicious choice of the spacer prevents exciton diffusion from the blue emitter unit, yet facilitates charge carrier transport to the yellow emitter unit to enable additional exciplex formation. This complementary behavior of the spacer improves the blue emission properties concomitantly yielding reasonable yellow emission. The overall white light emission properties are enhanced, achieving CIE coordinates (0.36, 0.39) and color temperature (4643 K) similar to daylight. Employing intermolecular exciplex emission in OLEDs simplifies the device architecture via its dual functionality as a host and as an emitter.

Multi-color carbon dots for white light-emitting diodes.

Project description:Heteroatom doped carbon dots (CDs) with color adjustable properties have attracted extensive attention. The doping of elements can effectively tune the surface chemical properties of CDs, thus resulting in its multi-functional applications such as in bio-imaging, photocatalysis, and photothermal conversion. The facile preparation of single metal-doped CDs with color-tunable properties has been rarely reported yet. Herein, we report a one-step solvothermal method to synthesize CDs with different fluorescent emission varying from red to purple to blue. The luminescence characteristic of CDs can be tuned by simply controlling the ratio of precursors, with the emission wavelength correspondingly adjusted from 610 nm to 390 nm. XPS investigation further demonstrated that the color variation is mainly due to the doping of zinc, which will increase the degree of surface oxidation in the as-prepared CDs. For blue emission CDs, the content of graphitic carbon gradually decreases with the rising of zinc chloride addition, while oxygen content remains around 20%, compared with red emission CDs of which the oxygen content is only 4.42%. We also demonstrated with theoretical simulations that the Zn dopant and the functional groups including -C[double bond, length as m-dash]O, -C-OH, -NH2, and pyrrolic N, play an important role in color change. Furthermore, the synthesized CDs have been successfully used into the fabrication of white LEDs. More than that, we produced a sensitive sensor from the prepared CDs for the effective detection of a variety of colorless transparent organic solvents utilizing the robust fluorescence properties of CDs, showing their great potential as fluorescent probes for chemical sensing.

Efficient perovskite light-emitting diodes based on a solution-processed tin dioxide electron transport layer.

Project description:To achieve high-performance perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs), an appropriate functional layer beneath the perovskite emissive layer is significantly important to modulate the morphology of the perovskite film and to facilitate charge injection and transport in the device. Herein, for the first time, we report efficient n-i-p structured PeLEDs using solution-processed SnO2 as an electron transport layer. Three-dimensional perovskites, such as CH(NH2)2PbI3 and CH3NH3PbI3, are found to be more chemically compatible with SnO2 than with commonly used ZnO. In addition, SnO2 shows good transparency, excellent morphology and suitable energy levels. These properties make SnO2 a promising candidate in both three- and low-dimensional PeLEDs, among which a high external quantum efficiency of 7.9% has been realized. Furthermore, interfacial materials that are widely used to improve the device performances of ZnO-based PeLEDs are also applied on SnO2-based PeLEDs and their effects have been systematically studied. In contrast to ZnO, SnO2 modified by these interfacial materials shows detrimental effects due to photoluminescence quenching.

Mechanism study on highly efficient polymer light-emitting diodes utilizing double-layered alkali halide electron injection layer.

Project description:Enhancing the injection of electron is an effective strategy to improve the performance of polymer light-emitting diodes (PLEDs). In this work, we reported a 286% improvement in current efficiency (CE) of PLEDs by using double-layered alkali halide electron injection layer (EIL) NaCl/LiF instead of LiF. A significant enhancement of electron injection was observed after inserting the NaCl layer. To understand the mechanism of such improvement, the devices with KBr/LiF and CsF/LiF as EILs were also investigated. Experimental results show that metal cation migrated under the effect of built-in electric field (Vbi), which plays the main role on the improvement of electron injection in PLEDs.

Enhancing the performance of blue quantum-dot light-emitting diodes through the incorporation of polyethylene glycol to passivate ZnO as an electron transport layer.

Project description:The balance between charge transport and charge injection is always a key factor in enhancing the performance of quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (QD-LEDs), particularly for the blue QDs due to their large optical band gap and relatively low valence band level compared with their green and red counterparts. High performance blue QD-LEDs have been demonstrated by blending polyethylene glycol (PEG) into solution-processed ZnO nanocrystals as the electron transport layer. PEG can effectively tune the electron mobility of ZnO and simultaneously passivate its surface defect states. As a result, the maximum current efficiency (CE) and external quantum efficiency (EQE) of the blue QD-LEDs increased from 4.33 cd A-1 and 9.98% for pure ZnO to 8.03 cd A-1 and 14.84% for 4% PEG blended into ZnO, respectively. Furthermore, operational lifetime of the device is also significantly improved from 8.95 h to 25.06 h. This result indicates that PEG is a promising material for regulating the charge balance of the blue QD-LEDs.

All solution-processed stable white quantum dot light-emitting diodes with hybrid ZnO@TiO₂ as blue emitters.

Project description:White quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QD-LEDs) have been a promising candidate for high-efficiency and color-saturated displays. However, it is challenging to integrate various QD emitters into one device and also to obtain efficient blue QDs. Here, we report a simply solution-processed white QD-LED using a hybrid ZnO@TiO₂ as electron injection layer and ZnCdSeS QD emitters. The white emission is obtained by integrating the yellow emission from QD emitters and the blue emission generated from hybrid ZnO@TiO₂ layer. We show that the performance of white QD-LEDs can be adjusted by controlling the driving force for hole transport and electroluminescence recombination region via varying the thickness of hole transport layer. The device is demonstrated with a maximum luminance of 730 cd/m(2) and power efficiency of 1.7 lm/W, exhibiting the Commission Internationale de l'Enclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.33, 0.33). The unencapsulated white QD-LED has a long lifetime of 96 h at its initial luminance of 730 cd/m(2), primarily due to the fact that the device with hybrid ZnO@TiO₂ has low leakage current and is insensitive to the oxygen and the moisture. These results indicate that hybrid ZnO@TiO₂ provides an alternate and effective approach to achieve high-performance white QD-LEDs and also other optoelectronic devices.

Effect of Air Exposure of ZnMgO Nanoparticle Electron Transport Layer on Efficiency of Quantum-Dot Light-Emitting Diodes.

Project description:We demonstrate the effect of air exposure on optical and electrical properties of ZnMgO nanoparticles (NPs) typically exploited as an electron transport layer in Cd-based quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs). We analyze the roles of air components in modifying the electrical properties of ZnMgO NPs, which reveals that H2O enables the reduction of hole leakage while O2 alters the character of charge transport due to its ability to trap electrons. As a result, the charge balance in the QDs layer is improved, which is confirmed by voltage-dependent measurements of photoluminescence quantum yield. The maximum external quantum efficiency is improved over 2-fold and reaches the value of 9.5% at a luminance of 104 cd/m2. In addition, we investigate the problem of electron leakage into the hole transport layer and show that trap-mediated electron transport in the ZnMgO layer caused by adsorbed O2 ensures a higher leakage threshold. This work also provides an insight into the possible disadvantages of device contact with air as well as problems and challenges that might occur during open-air fabrication of QLEDs.
