Vacuum nanohole array embedded phosphorescent organic light emitting diodes.

ABSTRACT: Light extraction from organic light-emitting diodes that utilize phosphorescent materials has an internal efficiency of 100% but is limited by an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 30%. In this study, extremely high-efficiency organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) with an EQE of greater than 50% and low roll-off were produced by inserting a vacuum nanohole array (VNHA) into phosphorescent OLEDs (PhOLEDs). The resultant extraction enhancement was quantified in terms of EQE by comparing experimentally measured results with those produced from optical modeling analysis, which assumes the near-perfect electric characteristics of the device. A comparison of the experimental data and optical modeling results indicated that the VNHA extracts the entire waveguide loss into the air. The EQE obtained in this study is the highest value obtained to date for bottom-emitting OLEDs.

Efficient white phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes using ultrathin emissive layers (<1?nm).

Project description:In this paper, efficient phosphorescent white organic light-emitting diodes (WOLEDs) were fabricated based on ultrathin doping-free emissive layers and mixed bipolar interlayers. The energy transfer processes were proved via the research of WOLEDs with different interlayer thicknesses and transient photoluminescence lifetime. WOLEDs with optimized thickness of doping-free emissive layers show maximum current efficiency of 47.8?cd/A and 44.9?cd/A for three-colors and four-colors WOLEDs, respectively. The Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage coordinates shows a very slight variation of (?±?0.02,?±?0.02) from 5793?cd/m2 to 11370?cd/m2 for three-colors WOLEDs and from 3038?cd/m2 to 13720?cd/m2 for four-colors WOLEDs, respectively. The stability of the spectra is attributed to the stable and sequential energy transfer among the various dyes. The color temperature of four-colors WOLEDs can be obtained from 2659 to 6636 by adjusting the thickness of ultrathin emissive layer.

Hot excited state management for long-lived blue phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes.

Project description:Since their introduction over 15 years ago, the operational lifetime of blue phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PHOLEDs) has remained insufficient for their practical use in displays and lighting. Their short lifetime results from annihilation between high-energy excited states, producing energetically hot states (>6.0?eV) that lead to molecular dissociation. Here we introduce a strategy to avoid dissociative reactions by including a molecular hot excited state manager within the device emission layer. Hot excited states transfer to the manager and rapidly thermalize before damage is induced on the dopant or host. As a consequence, the managed blue PHOLED attains T80=334±5?h (time to 80% of the 1,000?cd?m-2 initial luminance) with a chromaticity coordinate of (0.16, 0.31), corresponding to 3.6±0.1 times improvement in a lifetime compared to conventional, unmanaged devices. To our knowledge, this significant improvement results in the longest lifetime for such a blue PHOLED.

Preferential Orientation of Tetrahedral Silicon-Based Hosts in Phosphorescent Organic Light-Emitting Diodes.

Project description:Vacuum-processed diphenylbis(3-(pyridine-2-yl)phenyl)silane (2PTPS), diphenylbis(3-(pyridine-3-yl)phenyl)silane (3PTPS), and diphenylbis(3-(pyridine-4-yl)phenyl)silane (4PTPS) have been used as electron-transporting host materials combined with tris(4-carbazoyl-9-ylphenyl)amine (TCTA) as the hole-transporting host, which induce balanced charge carrier transport for high-efficiency phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes. The 4PTPS-based organic light-emitting diodes with tris[2-phenylpyridinato-C 2,N]iridium(III) [Ir(ppy)3] dopant showed highest current efficiency and external quantum efficiency of 53.54 cd/A and 15.61%, compared to 2PTPS (40.75 cd/A, 11.84%) and 3PTPS (29.35 cd/A, 8.54%). These results were attributed to the well-aligned structure with preferential horizontal orientation of the emitting material layer by the diffraction intensity distribution as a function of azimuthal angle in two-dimensional grazing incidence X-ray diffraction analysis. The molecular orientation of TCTA:4PTPS material with a narrow azimuthal intensity distribution had better priority to the horizontal direction than the other TCTA:2PTPS and TCTA:3PTPS materials, which is related to the charge transport as well as the device efficiency. We found that the preferential horizontal orientation of the co-host material with a balanced charge carrier was not affected by Ir(ppy)3 dopant with a homoleptic structure and bis-[2-(4,6-difluorophenyl)pyridinato-N,C 2](picolinato)iridium [Firpic] dopant with a heteroleptic structure in the co-host/dopant system.

Phosphine Sulfide-Based Bipolar Host Materials for Blue Phosphorescent Organic Light-Emitting Diodes.

Project description:Three phosphine sulfide-based bipolar host materials, vizCzPhPS, DCzPhPS, and TCzPhPS, were facilely prepared through a one-pot synthesis in excellent yields. The developed hosts exhibit superior thermal stabilities with the decomposition temperatures (Td) all exceeding 350 °C and the melting temperatures (Tm) over 200 °C. In addition, their triplet energy (ET) levels are estimated to be higher than 3.0 eV, illustrating that they are applicable to serve as hosts for blue phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PhOLEDs). The maxima luminance, current efficiency (CE), power efficiency (PE), and external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 17,223 cd m-2, 36.7 cd A-1, 37.5 lm W-1, and 17.5% are achieved for the blue PhOLEDs hosted by CzPhPS. The PhOLEDs based on DCzPhPS and TCzPhPS show inferior device performance than that of CzPhPS, which might be ascribed to the deteriorated charge transporting balance as the increased number of the constructed carbazole units in DCzPhPS and TCzPhPS molecules would enhance the hole-transporting ability of the devices to a large extent. Our study demonstrates that the bipolar hosts derived from phosphine sulfide have enormous potential applications in blue PhOLEDs, and the quantity of donors should be well controlled to exploit highly efficient phosphine sulfide-based hosts.

Influence of vacuum chamber impurities on the lifetime of organic light-emitting diodes.

Project description:We evaluated the influence of impurities in the vacuum chamber used for the fabrication of organic light-emitting diodes on the lifetime of the fabricated devices and found a correlation between lifetime and the device fabrication time. The contact angle of the ITO substrates stored the chamber under vacuum were used to evaluate chamber cleanliness. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was performed on Si wafers stored in the vacuum chamber before device fabrication to examine the impurities in the chamber. Surprisingly, despite the chamber and evaporation sources being at room temperature, a variety of materials were detected, including previously deposited materials and plasticizers from the vacuum chamber components. We show that the impurities, and not differences in water content, in the chamber were the source of lifetime variations even when the duration of exposure to impurities only varied before and after deposition of the emitter layer. These results suggest that the impurities floating in the vacuum chamber significantly impact lifetime values and reproducibility.

Star-Shaped Boron-Containing Asymmetric Host Materials for Solution-Processable Phosphorescent Organic Light-Emitting Diodes.

Project description:Boron-containing compounds have attracted considerable attention because of their electron-accepting properties, and they are widely used in a variety of fields. However, due to the essential requirement to protect the empty pz-orbital of the boron atom using large steric hindrance or rigid groups, borane derivatives generally show poor solubility and are rarely reported as acceptor units to construct bipolar host materials for phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PhOLEDs). Here, a combined star-shaped and asymmetric donor-acceptor molecular design strategy to improve the solubility and fine tune the optical and electronic properties of boron-containing materials is presented. High thermal stability, solvent solubility, solution processability, and triplet energy are achieved simultaneously. With the thus-designed boron-containing bipolar molecules as host materials, the solution-processed PhOLEDs exhibit high device performances, which are comparable to the vacuum-processed counterparts, showing high external quantum efficiencies up to 18.5% and 14.5% in blue and white PhOLEDs, respectively. These results demonstrate the great potential of the star-shaped and symmetry-breaking borane derivatives in solution-processable organic optoelectronic devices.

Solution-Processed Phosphorescent Organic Light-Emitting Diodes with Ultralow Driving Voltage and Very High Power Efficiency.

Project description:To realize power efficient solution-processed phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (s-PhOLEDs), the corresponding high driving voltage issue should be well solved. To solve it, efforts have been devoted to the exploitation of novel host or interfacial materials. However, the issues of charge trapping of phosphor and/or charge injection barrier are still serious, largely restraining the power efficiency (PE) levels. Herein, with the utilization of an exciplex-forming couple 4, 4', 4″-tris[3-methylphenyl(phenyl)amino]triphenylamine (m-MTDATA) and 1,3,5-tri(m-pyrid-3-yl-phenyl)benzene (TmPyPB), the efficient charge injection and transporting, barrier-free hole-electron recombination for the formation of the interfacial exciplex, and elimination of charge traps of phosphors in the emissive layer are realized simultaneously, resulting in a turn-on voltage of 2.36 V, a record high PE of 97.2 lm W(-1), as well as extremely low driving voltage of 2.60 V at 100 cd m(-2), 3.03 V at 1000 cd m(-2) and 4.08 V at 10000 cd m(-2). This report is the first time that the PE performance of s-PhOLED approaches 100 lm W(-1) high level, even superior to the corresponding state-of-the-art performance of the same color vacuum-deposited PhOLED (v-PhOLED) counterpart. We anticipate this report opens a new avenue for achieving power efficient monochromatic and white s-PhOLEDs with simple structures.

Highly efficient and stable organic light-emitting diodes with a greatly reduced amount of phosphorescent emitter.

Project description:Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have been intensively studied as a key technology for next-generation displays and lighting. The efficiency of OLEDs has improved markedly in the last 15 years by employing phosphorescent emitters. However, there are two main issues in the practical application of phosphorescent OLEDs (PHOLEDs): the relatively short operational lifetime and the relatively high cost owing to the costly emitter with a concentration of about 10% in the emitting layer. Here, we report on our success in resolving these issues by the utilization of thermally activated delayed fluorescent materials, which have been developed in the past few years, as the host material for the phosphorescent emitter. Our newly developed PHOLED employing only 1 wt% phosphorescent emitter exhibits an external quantum efficiency of over 20% and a long operational lifetime of about 20 times that of an OLED consisting of a conventional host material and 1 wt% phosphorescent emitter.

Double boron-embedded multiresonant thermally activated delayed fluorescent materials for organic light-emitting diodes.

Project description:The subclass of multi resonant thermally activated delayed fluorescent emitters (MR-TADF) containing boron atoms has garnered significant attention in the field of organic light emitting diode (OLED) research. Among boron-based MR-TADF emitters, double boron-embedded MR-TADF (DB-MR-TADF) emitters show excellent electroluminescence performances with high photoluminescence quantum yields, narrow band emission, and beneficially small singlet-triplet energy levels in all the full-color gamut regions. This article reviews recent progress in DB-MR-TADF emitters, with particular attention to molecular design concepts, synthetic routes, optoelectronic properties, and OLED performance, giving future prospects for real-world applications.

Multi-Resonant Indolo[3,2,1-<i>jk</i>]carbazole-Based Host for Blue Phosphorescent Organic Light-Emitting Diodes.

Project description:In organic light-emitting diodes, positive and negative charge carriers mostly migrate at different rates. This could result in excitons formed in the EML often migrating to the vicinity of the hole transport layer and the electron transport layer. To address this, it is important to design high-quality multi-resonance hosts that can balance the migration rate of carriers. Here, we report two newly developed multi-resonance hosts, m-ICzPBI and o-ICzPBI. The hosts contain an indolo[3,2,1-jk]carbazole (ICz) motif, which functionalized as either a donor or an acceptor unit. The hosts exhibit extremely high molecular rigidity and thermal stability. Devices A and B were constructed using FIrpic as a phosphorescent emitter with m-ICzPBI or o-ICzPBI as a host. Device A achieved high maximum values of EQE, PE and CE of 13.4%, 24.8 lm W-1 and 31.6 cd A-1, respectively, and low efficiency roll-off at 5000 cd m-2 of 8.6%, 10.6 lm W-1 and 20.3 cd A-1, respectively.
