Blended host ink for solution processing high performance phosphorescent OLEDs.

ABSTRACT: 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.

Effect of TADF Assistance on Performance Enhancement in Solution Processed Green Phosphorescent OLEDs.

Project description:Many methods have been proposed to increase the efficiency of organic electroluminescent materials applied as an emissive layer in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). Herein, we demonstrate enhancement of electroluminescence efficiency and operational stability solution processed OLEDs by employing thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) molecules as assistant dopants in host-guest systems. The TADF assistant dopant (SpiroAC-TRZ) is used to facilitate efficient energy transfer from host material poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) to a phosphorescent Ir(III) emitter. We present the analysis of energy transfer and charge trapping-two main processes playing a crucial role in light generation in host-guest structure OLEDs. The investigation of photo-, electro- and thermoluminescence for the double-dopant layer revealed that assistant dopant does not only harvest and transfer the electrically generated excitons to phosphorescent emitter molecules but also creates exciplexes. The triplet states of formed PVK:SpiroAC-TRZ exciplexes are involved in the transport process of charge carriers and promote long-range exciton energy transfer to the emitter, improving the efficiency of electroluminescence in a single emissive layer OLED, resulting in devices with luminance exceeding 18 000 cd/m2 with a luminous efficiency of 23 cd/A and external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 7.4%.

Enhancing Molecular Aggregations by Intermolecular Hydrogen Bonds to Develop Phosphorescent Emitters for High-Performance Near-Infrared OLEDs.

Project description:Phosphorescent near-infrared (NIR) organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) have drawn increasing attention for their promising applications in the fields such as photodynamic therapy and night-vision readable displays. Here, three simple phosphorescent Pt(II) complexes are synthesized, and their intermolecular interactions are investigated in crystals and neat films by X-ray single crystal diffraction and grazing-incidence wide-angle X-ray scattering, respectively. The photophysical properties, molecular aggregation (including Pt-Pt interaction), molecular packing orientation, and electron transport ability are all influenced by the strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds. Consequently, the nondoped OLEDs based on tBu-Pt and F-Pt show electroluminescent emissions in NIR region with the highest external quantum efficiencies of 13.9% and 16.7%, respectively.

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.

Efficient and stable single-doped white OLEDs using a palladium-based phosphorescent excimer.

Project description:A tetradentate Pd(ii) complex, Pd3O3, which exhibits highly efficient excimer emission is synthesized and characterized. Pd3O3 can achieve blue emission despite using phenyl-pyridine emissive ligands which have been a mainstay of stable green and red phosphorescent emitter designs, making Pd3O3 a good candidate for stable blue or white OLEDs. Pd3O3 exhibits strong and efficient phosphorescent excimer emission expanding the excimer based white OLEDs beyond the sole class of Pt complexes. Devices of Pd3O3 demonstrate peak external quantum efficiencies as high as 24.2% and power efficiencies of 67.9 Lm per W for warm white devices. Furthermore, Pd3O3 devices in a carefully designed stable structure achieved a device operational lifetime of nearly 3000 h at 1000 cd m-2 without any outcoupling enhancement while simultaneously achieving peak external quantum efficiencies of 27.3% and power efficiencies over 81 Lm per W.

Pyrene-Based Blue AIEgen: Enhanced Hole Mobility and Good EL Performance in Solution-Processed OLEDs.

Project description:Organic luminogens with strong solid-state emission have attracted much attention for their widely practical applications. However, the traditional organic luminogens with planar conformations often suffer from the notorious aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect in solid state for the ?-? stacking. Here, a highly efficient blue emitter TPE-4Py with an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect is achieved by combining twisted tetraphenylethene (TPE) core and planar pyrene peripheries. When the emitter was spin-coated in non-doped OLEDs with or without a hole-transporting layer, comparable EL performance was achieved, showing the bifunctional property as both an emitter and a hole-transporting layer. Furthermore, its EL efficiency was promoted in doped OLED, even at a high doping concentration (50%), because of its novel AIE effect, with a current efficiency up to 4.9 cd/A at 484 nm.

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.

Inkjet Printing of Super Yellow: Ink Formulation, Film Optimization, OLEDs Fabrication, and Transient Electroluminescence.

Project description:Inkjet printing technique allows manufacturing low cost organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) in ambient conditions. The above approach enables upscaling of the OLEDs fabrication process which, as a result, would become faster than conventionally used vacuum based processing techniques. In this work, we use the inkjet printing technique to investigate the formation of thin active layers of well-known light emitting polymer material: Super Yellow (poly(para-phenylene vinylene) copolymer). We develop the formulation of Super Yellow ink, containing non-chlorinated solvents and allowing stable jetting. Optimization of ink composition and printing resolution were performed, until good quality films suitable for OLEDs were obtained. Fabricated OLEDs have shown a remarkable characteristics of performance, similar to the OLEDs fabricated by means of spin coating technique. We checked that, the values of mobility of the charge carriers in the printed films, measured by transient electroluminescence, are similar to the values of mobility measured in spin coated films. Our contribution provides a complete framework for inkjet printing of high quality Super Yellow films for OLEDs. The description of this method can be used to obtain efficient printed OLEDs both in academic and in industrial settings.

High Triplet Energy Host Materials for Blue TADF OLEDs-A Tool Box Approach.

Project description:The synthesis of stable blue TADF emitters and the corresponding matrix materials is one of the biggest challenges in the development of novel OLED materials. We present six bipolar host materials based on triazine as an acceptor and two types of donors, namely, carbazole, and acridine. Using a tool box approach, the chemical structure of the materials is changed in a systematic way. Both the carbazole and acridine donor are connected to the triazine acceptor via a para- or a meta-linked phenyl ring or are linked directly to each other. The photophysics of the materials has been investigated in detail by absorption-, fluorescence-, and phosphorescence spectroscopy in solution. In addition, a number of DFT calculations have been made which result in a deeper understanding of the photophysics. The presence of a phenyl bridge between donor and acceptor cores leads to a considerable decrease of the triplet energy due to extension of the overlap electron and hole orbitals over the triazine-phenyl core of the molecule. This decrease is more pronounced for the para-phenylene than for the meta-phenylene linker. Only direct connection of the donor group to the triazine core provides a high energy of the triplet state of 2.97 eV for the carbazole derivative CTRZ and 3.07 eV for the acridine ATRZ. This is a major requirement for the use of the materials as a host for blue TADF emitters.

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.

Benzene-cored AIEgens for deep-blue OLEDs: high performance without hole-transporting layers, and unexpected excellent host for orange emission as a side-effect.

Project description:Great efforts have been devoted to explore efficient fluorescent materials, especially deep-blue luminogens, for organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). In this paper, according to the design idea of creating luminogens with the characteristic of aggregation induced emission (AIE), four new benzene-cored luminogens with very simple structure have been intelligently designed, in which, without an additional hole-transporting layer (such as NPB), 3TPA-CN exhibited deep-blue emission and high performance in a simple nondoped LED device with a current efficiency (CE) of 5.21 cd A-1, external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 3.89%, and CIE coordinates of (0.15, 0.14). Excitingly, as a wonderful side-effect, 3TPA-CN can serve as an excellent host for orange emissive phosphorescent OLEDs (PhOLEDs), with a maximum current and power efficiency of 57.4 cd A-1 and 52.0 lm W-1, respectively, and a corresponding maximum EQE of 18.2%, higher than that of CBP (15.7%), one popular host for orange PhOLEDs, under the same conditions, thus broadening the utilization of AIEgens as host in PhOLEDs.
