New Blue-Light Emitting Materials in White OLED Based on Solution and Vacuum Methods

New host material of 2-tert-butyl-9,10-bis(3′′,5′′-diphenylbiphenyl-4′-yl)anthracene [T-TAT] substituted t-butyl group was investigated in solution process WOLED device compared with 9,10-bis (3′′,5′′-diphenylbiphenyl-4’-yl) anthracene [TAT]. A two-color WOLED of a co-host system using solution process method was demonstrated. The device configuration was ITO / PEDOT:PSS (40 nm) / emitting layer (50 nm) / TPBi (20 nm) / LiF (1 nm) / Al. The emitting layer consisted of TAT or T-TAT, NPB, DPAVBi (blue dopant), and rubrene (yellow dopant). NPB was used to help hole carrier transport as well as blue host role. The device using the T-TAT compound as a co-host showed a luminance efficiency of 2.73 cd/A, which is 77% higher than TAT device of 1.54 cd/A at 20 mA/cm².     

Improved performance of organic light-emitting devices with plasma treated ITO surface and plasma polymerized methyl methacrylate buffer layer

Transparent indium-tin-oxide (ITO) anode surface was modified using O₃ plasma and organic ultra-thin buffer layers were deposited on the ITO surface using 13.56 MHz rf plasma polymerization technique. A plasma polymerized methyl methacrylate (ppMMA) ultra-thin buffer layer was deposited between the ITO anode and hole transporting layer (HTL). The plasma polymerization of the buffer layer was carried out at a homemade capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) equipment. N,N′-Diphenyl-N,N′-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1′-diphenyl-4,4′-diamine (TPD) as HTL, Tris(8-hydroxy-quinolinato)aluminum (Alq₃) as both emitting layer (EML)/electron transporting layer (ETL), and aluminum layer as cathode were deposited using thermal evaporation technique. Electroluminescence (EL) efficiency, operating voltage and stability of the organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) were investigated in order to study the effect of the plasma surface treatment of the ITO anode and role of plasma polymerized methyl methacrylate as an organic ultra-thin buffer layer.     

Cross‐Linked Alq3‐Containing Polymers with Improved Electroluminescence Efficiency Used for OLEDs

Summary: Homopolymers and a series of copolymers with tris‐8‐hydroxyquinoline aluminum (Alq₃) as the cross‐links are synthesized. All these polymers show improved electroluminescence (EL) efficiency over their previously reported counterparts. Among them, the copolymers containing Alq₃ and carbazole groups show higher EL efficiency than that of the homopolymers. We also demonstrate the feasibility of generating patterns using the homopolymers via photopolymerization. The cross‐linked nature, selectivity of patterning, high thermal stability, and EL efficiency might render these polymers a promising material in fabricating large‐scaled multilayered sub‐pixellation organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs).

A Water‐Soluble π‐Conjugated Polymer with up to 100 mg · mL−1 Solubility

A cationic water‐soluble polyfluorene (P2) containing a high density of tetraalkylammonium side chains in polymer backbone was synthesized and characterized. The polymer shows excellent water solubility up to 100 mg · mL⁻¹ as well as high photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield of 44% in water. The relatively high cationic density and appropriate side chain length of the polymer are the key factors to achieve such high water solubility. The reduction potential of P2 is decreased as compared with its neutral polymer, reflecting the enhanced electron injection abilities. The standard NPB/Alq₃ device using such a polymer as the electron injection layer shows nearly three‐fold enhancement in the electroluminescence (EL) efficiency.

The synthesis of 2-(2-arylvinyl)- and 2,6-di(2-arylvinyl)dibenzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]furan derivatives for application in optoelectronics is described. Wittig reaction of the triphenylphosphonium bromides derived from diethyl 2,6-dimethylbenzofuro[5,6-b]furan-3,7-dicarboxylate with aryl aldehydes gave the products in 70-99% yield. The corresponding products derived from furfural and cinnamic aldehyde were also obtained. The prepared products reveal UV-Vis fluorescence with quantum yields, varying from 1% to 100%, and may be used as organic small molecule materials for organic light-emitting devices (OLED).     

Effect of gold nanoparticles on the performances of the phosphorescent organic light-emitting devices

Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) on the performance of the phosphorescent organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) were investigated. The green phosphorescent OLEDs with GNPs incorporated in hole transporting layer (HTL) or hole blocking layer (HBL) were fabricated using thermal evaporation technique. The results indicated that the performance of the OLEDs with GNPs were dependent on the position of the GNPs. The optimized device with GNPs in HBL shows enhanced current efficiency and reduced efficiency roll-off. However, the efficiency of the device with GNPs in HTL was decreased. The detailed physical mechanism is investigated in order to unveil such difference.
