White organic light-emitting diodes based on a combined electromer and monomer emission in doubly-doped polymers

We report on white organic light-emitting diodes(WOLEDs) based on polyvinylcarbazole(PVK) doped with 1,1-bis((di-4-tolylamino)phenyl)cyclohexane(TAPC) and perylene,and investigate the luminescence mechanism of the devices.The chromaticity of light emission can be tuned by adjusting the concentration of the dopants.White light with the Commission Internationale de L’Eclairage(CIE) coordinates of(0.33,0.34) is achieved by mixing the yellow electromer emission of TAPC and the blue monomer emission of perylene from the device ITO/PVK:TAPC:perylene(100:9:1 in wt.)(100 nm)/tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum(Alq 3)(10 nm)/Al.The device exhibits a maximal luminance of 3727 cd/m2 and a current efficiency of 2cd/A.     

Efficient fluorescent white organic light-emitting devices with a reduced efficiency roll-off based on a blue ambipolar fluorescent emitter

White organic light-emitting devices (WOLEDs) with fluorescent donor-acceptor-substituted spirobifluorene compounds (red 2-diphenylamino-7-(2,2-dicyanovinyl)-9,9′-spirobifluorene and blue 2-diphenylamino-7-(2,2-diphenylvinyl)-9,9′-spirobifluorene) have been fabricated. The optimized WOLEDs shows a maximum current efficiency 5.9 cd/A and very low efficiency roll-off. From the brightness at maximum current efficiency to high brightness of 10000 cd/m², the current efficiency roll-off is only 0.4%. It can be attributed to the ambipolar blue fluorescent emitter with voltage-independnet mobility which makes the device having a broader charge recombination zone and balance of carrier transport.

We report on white organic light-emitting diodes (WOLEDs) based on polyvinylcarbazole (PVK) doped with 1,1-bis((di-4-tolylamino)phenyl)cyclohexane (TAPC) and perylene, and investigate the luminescence mechanism of the devices. The chromaticity of light emission can be tuned by adjusting the concentration of the dopants. White light with the Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.33, 0.34) is achieved by mixing the yellow electromer emission of TAPC and the blue monomer emission of perylene from the device ITO/PVK: TAPC: perylene (100:9:1 in wt.)

Enhancement of Frster energy transfer from thermally activated delayed fluorophores layer to ultrathin phosphor layer for high color stability in non-doped hybrid white organic light-emitting devices

Fluorescence/phosphorescence hybrid white organic light-emitting devices(WOLEDs) based on double emitting layers(EMLs) with high color stability are fabricated.The simplified EMLs consist of a non-doped blue thermally activated delayed fluorescence(TADF) layer using 9,9-dimethyl-9,10-dihydroacridine-diphenylsulfone(DMAC-DPS) and an ultrathin non-doped yellow phosphorescence layer employing bis[2-(4-tertbutylphenyl)benzothiazolato-N,C2']iridium(acetylacetonate)((tbt)_2Ir(acac)).Two kinds of materials of 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline(Bphen) and 1,3,5-tris(2-Nphenylbenzimidazolyl) benzene(TPBi) are selected as the electron transporting layer(ETL),and the thickness of yellow EML is adjusted to optimize device performance.The device based on a 0.3-nm-thick yellow EML and Bphen exhibits high color stability with a slight Commission International de l'Eclairage(CIE) coordinates variation of(0.017,0.009) at a luminance ranging from 52 cd/m~2 to 6998 cd/m~2.The TPBi-based device yields a high efficiency with a maximum external quantum efficiency(EQE),current efficiency,and power efficiency of 10%,21.1 cd/A,and 21.3 lm/W,respectively.The ultrathin yellow EML suppresses hole trapping and short-radius Dexter energy transfer,so that Forster energy transfer(FRET)from DMAC-DPS to(tbt)_2Ir(acac) is dominant,which is beneficial to keep the color stable.The employment of TPBi with higher triplet excited state effectively alleviates the triplet exciton quenching by ETL to improve device efficiency.     

Effect of different spacers for performance enhancement on white organic light-emitting devices based on double emissive layers with homogeneous p-/n-type host

White organic light-emitting devices (WOLEDs) based on phosphorescent blue and yellow emitters were fabricated, while p-type di-(4-(N,N-ditolyl-amino)-phenyl)cyclohexane (TAPC) and n-type 2,2′,2″-(1,3,5-benzenetriyl)-tris(1-phenyl-1-H-benzimidazole) (TPBi) were separately utilized as a homogeneous host for both blue and yellow emissive layers (EMLs). Then, various spacers were inserted between the two EMLs for performance characterization. The results showed that for the TAPC-host devices, a device using 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (Bphen) as the spacer had a maximum current efficiency (CE) of 11.3 cd/A, while stable white light emission with Commission Internationale del’Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.394, 0.435) at a bias of 5 V was observed. Similarly, among the TPBi-host devices, a device using 4,4′-bis(carbazol-9-yl)biphenyl (CBP) as the spacer exhibited a maximum CE of 18.1 cd/A, accompanied by negligible color variation with the CIE coordinates of (0.284,0.333) at 5 V. For the double-EML devices, the improved device efficiency and color stability by introducing proper spacer was attributed to broadened recombination region and efficient energy transfer between the EMLs.     

Solution-processed white organic light-emitting devices based on small-molecule materials

We investigated solution-processed films of 4,4′-bis(2,2-diphenylvinyl)-1,1′-bibenyl (DPVBi) and its blends with N,N′-bis(3-methylphenyl)-(1,1′-biphenyl)-4,4′-diamine (TPD) by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The AFM result shows that the solution-processed films are pin-free and their morphology is smooth enough to be used in OLEDs. We have developed a solution-processed white organic light-emitting device (WOLEDs) based on small-molecules, in which the light-emitting layer (EML) was formed by spin-coating the solution of small-molecules on top of the solution-processed hole-transporting layer. This WOLEDs, in which the EML consists of co-host (DPVBi and TPD), the blue dopant (4,4′-bis[2-(4-(N,N-diphenylamino)phenyl)vinyl]biphenyl) and the yellow dye (5,6,11,12-tetraphenylnaphtacene), has a current efficiency of 6.0 cd/A at a practical luminance of 1000 cd/m², a maximum luminance of 22500 cd/m², and its color coordinates are quite stable. Our research shows a possible approach to achieve efficient and low-cost small-molecule-based WOLEDs, which avoids the complexities of the co-evaporation process of multiple dopants and host materials in vacuum depositions.     

Combined host–guest doping and host-free systems for high-efficiency white organic light-emitting devices

Highly efficient white organic light-emitting devices (WOLEDs) with a four-layer structure were realized by utilizing phosphorescent blue and yellow emitters. The key concept of device construction is to combine host–guest doping system of the blue emitting layer (EML) and the host-free system of yellow EML. Two kinds of WOLEDs incorporated with distinct host materials, namely N,N'-dicarbazolyl-3,5-benzene (mCP) and p-bis(triphenylsilyly)benzene (UGH2), were fabricated. Without using light out-coupling technology, a maximum current efficiency (η_C) of 58.8 cd/A and a maximum external quantum efficiency (η_EQE) of 18.77% were obtained for the mCP-based WOLED; while a maximum η_C of 65.3 cd/A and a maximum η_EQE of 19.04% were achieved for the UGH2-based WOLED. Meanwhile, both WOLEDs presented higher performance than that of conventionally full-doping WOLEDs. Furthermore, systematic studies of the high-efficiency WOLEDs were progressed.
