The controllable tuning of the excited states in a series of phosphine‐oxide hosts ( DPExPOCzn ) was realized through introducing carbazolyl and diphenylphosphine‐oxide (DPPO) moieties to adjust the frontier molecular orbitals, molecular rigidity, and the location of the triplet excited states by suppressing the intramolecular interplay of the combined multi‐insulating and meso linkage. On increasing the number of substituents, simultaneous lowering of the first singlet energy levels (S1) and raising of the first triplet energy levels (T1, about 3.0 eV) were achieved. The former change was mainly due to the contribution of the carbazolyl group to the HOMOs and the extended conjugation. The latter change was due to an enhanced molecular rigidity and the shift of the T1 states from the diphenylether group to the carbazolyl moieties. This kind of convergent modulation of excited states not only facilitates the exothermic energy transfer to the dopants in phosphorescent organic light‐emitting diodes (PHOLEDs), but also realizes the fine‐tuning of electrical properties to achieve the balanced carrier injection and transportation in the emitting layers. As the result, the favorable performance of blue‐light‐emitting PHOLEDs was demonstrated, including much‐lower driving voltages of 2.6 V for onset and 3.0 V at 100 cd m?2, as well as a remarkably improved E.Q.E. of 12.6 %. 相似文献
1‐(3‐amino‐4‐thia‐1,2‐diazaspiro[4.11]hexadec‐2‐en‐1‐yl)ethan‐1‐one was synthesized and experimentally characterized by using FT‐IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and UV–Vis spectroscopy. The structure of the compound was confirmed by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. In the crystal structure, the molecules are linked by pairs of N‐H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming centrosymmetric dimers with the graph‐set motif. The water molecule also plays an important role in the stabilization of the crystal structure, bridging the dimers to form a two‐dimensional supramolecular network. The molecular geometry, frontier molecular orbitals, vibrational frequencies, electronic properties, and molecular electrostatic potential were calculated using density functional theory (DFT) with the B3LYP/6‐311G(d,p) basis set. Geometric parameters, vibrational assignments, and electronic properties such as calculated energies, excitation energies, and oscillator strengths were compared with the experimental data, and it was seen that the theoretical results support the experimental parameters. 相似文献
The purpose of this paper is to provide an in‐depth investigation of the electronic and optical properties of two series of carbazole‐based blue light‐emitting dendrimers, including 1 – 6 six oligomers. These materials show great potential for application in organic light‐emitting diodes as efficient blue‐light and red‐light emitting materials due to the tuning of the optical and electronic properties by the use of different electron donors (D) and electron acceptors (A). The geometric and electronic structures of these compounds in the ground state are calculated using density functional theory (DFT) and the ab initio HF, whereas the lowest singlet excited states were optimized by ab initiosingle excitation configuration interaction (CIS). All DFT calculations are performed using the B3LYP functional on 6‐31G* basis set. The outcomes show that the highest occupied molecular orbitals (HOMOs), lowest occupied molecular orbitals (LUMOs), energies gaps, ionization potentials, electron affinities and reorganization energies of each molecular are affected by different D and A moieties and different substitute positions. 相似文献
The effect of ylide substitution at the α position to the carbene carbon (Cc) atom on the stability and σ‐donating ability of a number of cyclic carbenes has been studied theoretically. The stabilities of all of the carbenes were investigated from an evaluation of their singlet–triplet energy gaps and stabilization energies. All carbenes were found to have a stable singlet state. The energy of the σ‐symmetric lone‐pair orbital at the Cc atom increases as a result of the introduction of ylide centers near to the Cc atom. This indicates an enhanced σ‐donating ability of the ylide‐containing carbenes. The calculated carbonyl‐stretching frequencies of the corresponding rhodium complexes, proton affinities, and nucleophilicity index values correlate well with the σ basicity of the carbenes. 相似文献
The synthesis, isomeric studies, and photophysical characterization of a series of multifunctional cyclometalated iridium(III) complexes containing a fluoro‐ or methyl‐substituted 2‐[3‐(N‐phenylcarbazolyl)]pyridine molecular framework are presented. All of the complexes are thermally stable solids and highly efficient electrophosphors. The optical, electrochemical, photo‐, and electrophosphorescence traits of these iridium phosphors have been studied in terms of the electronic nature and coordinating site of the aryl or pyridyl ring substituents. The correlation between the functional properties of these phosphors and the results of density functional theory calculations was made. Arising from the propensity of the electron‐rich carbazolyl group to facilitate hole injection/transport, the presence of such a moiety can increase the highest‐occupied molecular orbital levels and improve the charge balance in the resulting complexes relative to the parent phosphor with 2‐phenylpyridine ligands. Remarkably, the excited‐state properties can be manipulated through ligand and substituent effects that allow the tuning of phosphorescence energies from bluish green to deep red. Electrophosphorescent organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) with outstanding device performance can be fabricated based on these materials, which show a maximum current efficiency of approximately 43.4 cd A?1, corresponding to an external quantum efficiency of approximately 12.9 % ph/el (photons per electron) and a power efficiency of approximately 33.4 Lm W?1 for the best device. The present work provides a new avenue for the rational design of multifunctional iridium–carbazolyl electrophosphors, by synthetically tailoring the carbazolyl pyridine ring that can reveal a superior device performance coupled with good color‐tuning versatility, suitable for multicolor‐display technology. 相似文献
The pi‐nature of a CF3 group can be understood through analysis of its bond orbitals (BOs) mixed into the pi‐type molecular orbitals of CF3‐substituted Ir(ppy)2MDPA+ complexes (ppy=2‐phenyl‐pyridine and MDPA=methylated 2,2′‐dipyridyl amine). It has been found that, through this natural bond orbital analysis, the parent’s molecular orbitals (MOs) can be stabilized by χρ*CF BO via negative hyperconjugation and, simultaneously, destabilized by electron lp(F) BO. Since these two competing pi‐effects are virtually counterbalanced as indicated by the vanishing values of crystal orbital overlap populations, the chemical substitution strategy originated from lowering of HOMO by using this electron‐withdrawing CF3 group has been found effective in color‐tuning to blue region. Based on reduced shielding effect due to de‐ creased χρ‐electron density, the reported position dependent CF3‐substitution effects on pi‐type MOs can also be understood through HOMO/LUMO wavefunction analysis. 相似文献
Several pyrene‐based polyphenylene dendrimers (PYPPDs) with different peripheral chromophores (PCs) are synthesized and characterized. Deep blue emissions solely from the core are observed for all of them in photoluminescence spectra due to good steric shielding of the core and highly efficient surface‐to‐core Förster resonant energy transfers (FRETs). Device performances are found in good correlation with the energy gaps between the work function of the electrodes and the frontier molecular orbital (FMO) levels of the PCs. Pure blue emission, luminance as high as 3700 cd m−2 with Commission Internationale de l'Éclairage 1931 (CIExy) = (0.16, 0.21), and a peak current efficiency of 0.52 cd A−1 at CIExy = (0.17, 0.20) are achieved. These dendrimers are among the best dendritic systems so far for fluorescent blue light‐emitting materials.
In order to study the Kohn-Sham frontier molecular orbital energies in the complete basis limit, a comparative study between localized functions and plane waves, obtained with the local density approximation exchange-correlation functional is made. The analyzed systems are ethylene and butadiene, since they are theoretical and experimentally well characterized. The localized basis sets used are those developed by Dunning. For the plane-waves method, the pseudopotential approximation is employed. The results obtained by the localized basis sets suggest that it is possible to get an estimation of the orbital energies in the limit of the complete basis set, when the basis set size is large. It is shown that the frontier molecular orbital energies and the energy gaps obtained with plane waves are similar to those obtained with a large localized basis set, when the size of the supercell and the plane-wave expansion have been appropriately calibrated. 相似文献
The novel fluorinated distyrylarylene, 4,4'-bis(2,2-di(4-fluorophenyl)vinyl)biphenyl (DFPVBi), was synthesized and fully characterized. The structure was confirmed with IR, 1↑H NMR, 13↑C NMR, 19↑F NMR and MS analyses. Its electronic and photoluminescence properties were investigated by UV-Vis absorption, cyclic voltammetry and fluorescence spectroscopy. The energy levels of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) are --5.77 and --2.75 eV, respectively. The electroluminescence proper- ties of the organic light-emitting diode fabricated by DFPVBi were also studied. The device exhibits a pure blue emission peaked at 454 nm, which indicates a maximum luminance of 5872 cd/m
^2 at 14.2 V and a maximum current efficiency of 2.82 cd/A at 10V, respectively. 相似文献
A series of green butterfly‐shaped thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters, namely PXZPM , PXZMePM , and PXZPhPM , are developed by integrating an electron‐donor (D) phenoxazine unit and electron‐acceptor (A) 2‐substituted pyrimidine moiety into one molecule via a phenyl‐bridge π linkage to form a D –π–A–π–D configuration. Changing the substituent at pyrimidine unit in these emitters can finely tune their emissive characteristics, thermal properties, and energy gaps between the singlet and triplet states while maintaining frontier molecular orbital levels, and thereby optimizing their optoelectronic properties. Employing these TADF emitters results in a green fluorescent organic light‐emitting diode (OLED) that exhibits a peak forward‐viewing external quantum efficiency (EQE) close to 25 % and a slow efficiency roll‐off characteristic at high luminance. 相似文献
