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.
