Abstract
- Efficient solution-processible yellow/orange emissive phosphors are highly required in solution-processed phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes ( s -PhOLEDs). With respect to phenyl pyridine (ppy)-type Ir(III) complexes, 2-(9,9-diethylfluoren-2-yl)pyridine (Flpy)-type Ir(III) complexes have huge potential in yellow/orange s -PhOLEDs due to their extended conjugation and excellent solubility in common organic solvents. Herein, a new series of phosphorescent Ir(III) complexes, i.e. Ir(Flpy) 2 pic-N O, Ir(Flpy-CF 3 ) 2 pic-N O, Ir(Flpy-CF 3 ) 2 dbm and Ir(Flpy-CF 3 ) 2 acac, based on Flpy main ligand and picolinic N-oxide (pic-N O), acetylacetone (acac), and dibenzoyl methane (dbm) ancillary ligands are synthesized. The photophysical, electrochemical, and electroluminescent (EL) properties of these phosphorescent Ir(III) complexes are investigated in details. By introducing the CF 3 group in Flpy ligand and varying the ancillary ligands, the emission spectra of these phosphorescent complexes are tuned in a large range with EL emission peaks from 544 nm to 588 nm. The s -PhOLEDs employing these phosphors show promising EL performance with maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) from 15.4% to 23.7% and high power efficiency from 61.9 l m W −1 to 80.4 l m W −1 . These highly efficient phosphorescent Ir(III) complexes may serve as ideal chromaticity components in solution-processed full-color displays and lighting devices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
