Efficient Deep-Blue Electrofluorescence with an External Quantum Efficiency Beyond 10.

ABSTRACT: The design of blue fluorescent materials combining both deep-blue emission (CIEy<0.06) and high-efficiency climbing over the typically limited exciton production efficiency of 25% is a challenge for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). In this work, we have synthesized two blue luminogens, trans-9,10-bis(2-butoxyphenyl)anthracene (BBPA) and trans-9,10-bis (2,4-dimethoxyphenyl)anthracene with high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) of 89.5% and 87.0%, respectively. Intriguingly, we have proposed a strategy to avoid aggregation-caused quenching, which can effectively reduce the undesirable excimeric emission by introducing two host matrices with twisted molecular structure, 9,10-di(naphth-2-yl) anthracene and 10,10'-bis-(4-fluorophenyl)-3,3'-dimethyl-9,9'-bianthracene (MBAn-(4)-F), in the BBPA emission layer. The device containing the EML of BBPA-doped MBAn-(4)-F exhibited a high external quantum efficiency of 10.27% for deep-blue emission with the Commission International de L'Eclairage CIE coordinates of (0.15, 0.05) via the steric effect. Importantly, this represents an advance in deep-blue-emitting fluorescent OLED architectures and materials that meet the requirements of high-definition display.

Project description:In this study, various diffusers are applied to highly efficient ultra-thin emission layer (EML) structure-based blue phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PHOLEDs) to improve the electroluminescence (EL) characteristics and viewing angle. To achieve highly efficient blue PHOLEDs, the EL characteristics of ultra-thin EML PHOLEDs with the various diffusers having different structures of pattern-shape (hemisphere/sphere), size (4~75 μm), distribution (surface/embedded), and packing (close-packed/random) were systematically analyzed. The diffusers showed different enhancements in the overall EL characteristics of efficiencies, viewing angle, and others. The EL characteristics showed apparent dependency on their structure. The external quantum efficiency (EQE) was enhanced mainly by following the orders of pattern, size, and shape. Following the pattern size, the EQE enhancement gradually increased; the largest-sized diffuser with a 75 μm closed-packed hemisphere (diffuser-1) showed a 1.47-fold EQE improvement, which was the highest. Meanwhile, the diffuser with a ~7 μm random embedded sphere with a low density (diffuser 5) showed the lowest 1.02-fold-improved EQE. The reference device with ultra-thin EML structure-based blue PHOLEDs showed a maximum EQE of 16.6%, and the device with diffuser 1 achieved a maximum EQE of 24.3% with a 5.1% wider viewing angle compared to the reference device without a diffuser. For the in-depth analysis, the viewing angle profile of the ultra-thin EML PHOLED device and fluorescent green OLEDs were compared. As a result, the efficiency enhancement characteristics of the diffusers show a difference in the viewing angle profile. Finally, the application of the diffuser successfully demonstrated that the EL efficiency and viewing angle could be selectively improved. Additionally, we found that it was possible to realize a wide viewing angle and achieve considerable EQE enhancement by further investigations using high-density and large-sized embedded structures of light-extraction film.
