Efficient Aggregation-Induced Delayed Fluorescence Luminogens for Solution-Processed OLEDs With Small Efficiency Roll-Off
摘要: Purely organic small molecules with thermally-activated delayed fluorescence have a high potential for application in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), but overcoming severe efficiency roll-off at high voltages still remains challenging. In this work, we design and synthesize two new emitters consisting of electron-withdrawing benzoyl and electron-donating phenoxazine and 9,9-dihexylfluorene. Their electronic structures, thermal stability, electrochemical behaviors, photoluminescence property, and electroluminescence performance are thoroughly investigated. These new emitters show weak fluorescence in dilute solution, but they can emit strongly with prominent delayed fluorescence in the aggregated state, indicating the aggregation-induced delayed fluorescence (AIDF) character. The solution-processed OLEDs based on the two emitters show high external quantum efficiency of 14.69%, and the vacuum-deposited OLEDs can also provide comparable external quantum efficiency of 14.86%. Significantly, roll-offs of the external quantum efficiencies are very small (down to 0.2% at 1,000 cd m?2) for these devices, demonstrating the evidently advanced efficiency stability. These results prove that the purely organic emitters with AIDF properties can be promising to fabricate high-performance solution-processed OLEDs.

Highly efficient non-doped blue fluorescent OLEDs with low efficiency roll-off based on hybridized local and charge transfer excited state emitters
摘要: Designing a donor-acceptor (D-A) molecule with a hybridized local and charge transfer (HLCT) excited state is a very effective strategy for producing an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) with a high exciton utilization efficiency and external quantum efficiency. Herein, a novel twisting D-π-A fluorescent molecule (triphenylamine-anthracene-phenanthroimidazole; TPAAnPI) is designed and synthesized. The excited state properties of the TPAAnPI investigated through photophysical experiments and density functional theory (DFT) analysis reveal that its fluorescence is due to the HLCT excited state. The optimized non-doped blue OLED using TPAAnPI as light-emitting layer exhibits a novel blue emission with an electroluminescence (EL) peak at 470 nm, corresponding to the Commission International de L’Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.15, 0.22). A fabricated device termed Device II exhibits a maximum current efficiency of 18.09 cd A ?1, power efficiency of 12.35 lm W?1, luminescence of ≈29900 cd cm?2, and external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 11.47%, corresponding to a high exciton utilization efficiency of 91%. Its EQE remains as high as 9.70% at a luminescence of 1000 cd m?2 with low efficiency roll-off of 15%. These results are among the best for HLCT blue-emitting materials involved in non-doped blue fluorescent OLEDs. The performance of Device II highlights a great industrial application potential for the TPAAnPI molecule.

High-efficiency near-infrared fluorescent organic light-emitting diodes with small efficiency roll-off based on AIE-active phenanthro[9,10- <i>d</i> ]imidazole derivatives
摘要: The simultaneous realization of high-efficiency and low-cost in fluorescent organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) is still a formidable challenge in deep-red (DR)/near-infrared (NIR) region because of the intrinsic limitation of the energy-gap law and fluorescence quenching effect. Herein, three novel donor-acceptor-donor′ (D-A-D′) fluorophores, PIBz-10-PTZ, PIBz-10P-PTZ and PIBz-3-PTZ, by utilizing phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazole and phenothiazine as the donor, benzothiadiazole as the acceptor are synthesized. Owing to the unilateral steric hindrance between adjacent hydrogen atoms along the horizontal axis, PIBz-3-PTZ possesses a completely planar conformation and fully conjugated structure. PIBz-3-PTZ exhibits a strong DR emission and aggregation induced emission (AIE) property with a high photoluminescence quantum yield of 35% in neat thin film. The nondoped OLEDs achieved a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 2.02% with an emission peak at 672 nm and the brightness of up to 3403 cd m-2. In addition, the device was able to maintain an EQE of 1.69% at high luminance of 100 cd m-2, with a low efficiency roll-off of 16%, suggesting the nondoped device can keep the brightness.

Efficient blue organic light-emitting diodes with low operation voltage by improving the injection and transport of holes
摘要: In this work, we reported the highly efficient organic electroluminescent (EL) devices based on blue phosphorescent material FIr6. By utilizing p-type dopant HAT-CN as hole injection layer material, the injection of holes from the anode was significantly improved. In addition, doping HAT-CN into hole transport layer (HTL) and inserting thin TcTa film between HTL and light-emitting layer (EML) improved the transport of holes. The stepwise energy levels between functional layers reduced the injection barriers of carriers, thus improving the balance of carriers within EML. Finally, highly efficient blue EL device realized the maximum current efficiency, power efficiency, external quantum efficiency (EQE) and brightness up to 39.14 cd/A, 38.68 lm/W, 24.6% and 17201 cd/m2, respectively. Even at the high brightness of 1000 cd/m2 (3.7 V), current efficiency and EQE as high as 36.73 cd/A and 23.1%, respectively, can still be retained by the same device. Our investigation provides an idea for the design of high-performance devices with low operation voltage and slow efficiency roll-off.

Efficient deep blue OLEDs with extremely low efficiency roll-off at high brightness based on phenanthroimidazole derivatives
摘要: Phosphorescent and thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters can break through the spin statistics rules and achieve great success in external quantum efficiency (over 5%). However, maintaining high efficiency at high brightness is a tremendous challenge for applications of organic light emitting diodes. Hence, we reported two phenanthroimidazole derivatives PPI-An-CN and PPI-An-TP and achieved extremely low efficiency roll-off with about 99% of the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQEmax) maintained even at a high luminance of 1000 cd/cm2 based non-doped devices. When doping the two materials in CBP (4,40-bis(N-carbazolyl)-1,10-biphenyl), the doped devices still exhibited excellent stability at high brightness with CIEy ≤ 0.07 and low turn-on voltage of only 2.8 V. The state-of-the-art low efficiency roll-off makes the new materials attractive for potential applications. It is first time that the Fragment Contribution Analysis method has been used to analyze the excited state properties of the molecules in the field of OLEDs, which helps us understand the mechanism more intuitively and deeply.

Investigation on Thermally Induced Efficiency Roll-Off: Toward Efficient and Ultrabright Quantum-Dot Light-Emitting Diodes
摘要: Quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) with high brightness have potential application in lighting and display. The high brightness is realized at high current density (J). However, at high J, the efficiency drops significantly, thereby limiting the achievable brightness. This notorious phenomenon has been known as efficiency roll-off, which is likely caused by the Auger- and/or thermal-induced emission quenching. In this work, we show that the Joule heat generated during device operation significantly affects the roll-off characteristics of QLEDs. To realize ultra-bright and efficient QLEDs, the thermal stability of QDs is improved by replacing the conventional oleic acid ligands with 1-dodecanethiol. By further using a substrate with high thermal conductivity, the Joule heat generated at high J is effectively dissipated. Because of the effective thermal management, thermal-induced emission quenching is significantly suppressed, and consequently, the QLEDs exhibit a high external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 16.6%, which is virtually droop-free over a wide range of brightness (e.g., EQE=16.1% @ 105 cd/m2 and 140 mA/cm2). Moreover, due to the reduced efficiency roll-off and enhanced heat dissipation, the demonstrated QLEDs can be operated at a very high J up to 3885 mA/cm2, thus enabling the devices to exhibit a record-high brightness of 1.6×106 cd/m2 and a lumen density of 500 lm/cm2. Our work demonstrates the significance of thermal management for the development of droop-free and ultra-bright QLED devices for a wide variety of applications including lighting, transparent display, projection display, outdoor digital signage, phototherapy and etc.

Highly Efficient Solution-Processed TADF Bluish-Green and Hybrid White Organic Light-Emitting Diodes Using Novel Bipolar Host Materials
摘要: Two pyridine containing bipolar host materials with high triplet energy, 9,10-dihydro-9,9-dimethyl-10-(3-(6-(3-(9,9-dimethylacridin-10(9H)-yl)phenyl)pyridin-2-yl)phenyl acridin (DDMACPy) and N-(3-(6-(3-(diphenylamino)phenyl)pyridin-2-yl)phenyl)-N-phenylbenzenamine (DTPAPy), are synthesized from modifying the commonly adapted host material 2,6-bis(3-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)phenyl)pyridine (DCzPPy). The HOMO levels of DDMACPy (5.50 eV) and DTPAPy (5.60 eV) are found to be shallower than that of DCzPPy (5.90 eV) that leads to the improvement in hole injection from the hole transport layer PEDOT:PSS (WF = 5.10 eV). These host materials are used in the emitting layer of bluish-green organic light-emitting diode (OLED) with the TADF emitter, 9,9-dimethyl-9,10-dihydroacridine-2,4,6-triphenyl-1,3,5-triazine (DAMC-TRZ), as the guest. The DDMACPy-based device shows the highest performance among them with the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQEmax), current efficiency (CEmax) and power efficiency (PEmax) of 21.0%, 53.1 cd A-1 and 44.0 lm w-1 at CIE (0.17, 0.42), respectively. By further doping with the red emitting phosphor iridium(III) bis(2-phenylquinoline)(2,2,6,6-tetramethylheptane-3,5-ionate) [Ir(dpm)PQ2] and yellow emitting phosphor iridium(III) bis(4-(4-t-butyphenyl) thieno[3,2-c]pyridinato-N,C20)acetylacetonate (PO-01-TB) emitters into the bluish-green emitting layer, a TADF-phosphor hybrid white OLED (T-P WOLED) is obtained with excellent EQEmax, CEmax and PEmax of 17.4%, 48.7 cd A-1 and 44.5 lm w-1 at CIE (0.35, 0.44), respectively. Moreover, both the bluish-green and white OLED show the low efficiency roll-off with external quantum efficiencies at the brightness of 1000 cd m-2 (EQE1000) 18.7% and 16.2% respectively, and are the highest performance records among the solution-processed TADF bluish-green and T-P WOLEDs.

Highly efficient TADF OLEDs with low efficiency roll-off based on novel acridine–carbazole hybrid donor-substituted pyrimidine derivatives
摘要: Dimethyl acridine (Ac) and carbazole (Cz) donors are fused to produce acridine–carbazole hybrid donors, 12AcCz (8,8-dimethyl-5-phenyl-8,13-dihydro-5H-indolo[2,3-c]acridine) and 23AcCz (13,13-dimethyl-7-phenyl-7,13-dihydro-5H-indolo[3,2-b]acridine). By combining TPPM (2,4,6-triphenylpyrimidine) acceptor with the Ac–Cz-fused donors of 12AcCz and 23AcCz, two emitters, 12AcCz-PM (13-(4-(2,6-diphenylpyrimidin-4-yl)phenyl)-8,8-dimethyl-5-phenyl-8,13-dihydro-5H-indolo[2,3-c]acridine) and 23AcCz-PM (5-(4-(2,6-diphenylpyrimidin-4-yl)phenyl)-13,13-dimethyl-7-phenyl-7,13-dihydro-5H-indolo[3,2-b]acridine), are designed and synthesized. The impact of the different fused topologies of the hybrid donors on molecular configuration, photophysical and optoelectrical characters are systematically investigated. For 12AcCz-PM, the large steric hindrance between donor and acceptor compels Ac of 12AcCz to be crooked, which endows it with the relatively planar quasi-axial conformation. No blatant TADF character is observed, but the 12AcCz-PM doped device still presents the ultradeep blue emission with CIEx, y of (0.15, 0.05) and maximum external quantum efficiency (EQEmax) of 6.4%. Whereas, 23AcCz-PM shows quasi-equatorial conformation and possesses notable TADF behavior. The 23AcCz-PM doped device reachs the EQEmax of 28.4% at low dopant concentration and 26.1% at high dopant concentration. Additionally, low efficiency roll-off (EQEs of 24.8% at 1000 cd m-2 and 20.7% at 5000 cd m-2) further confirms its superiorities as a TADF emitter.

Synthesis and Characteristics of New Organic Red Emissive Material Based on Phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazole
摘要: Red emission is one of the three primary colors that are essential for the realization of full-color displays and solid-state lightings. High solid-state efficiency is a crucial factor for the applications in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). In this work, two new donor-acceptor-donor type phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazole (PIM) -based derivatives, (2Z,2'Z)-2,2'-(1,4-phenylene)bis(3-(4-(1-phenyl-1H-phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazol-2-yl)phenyl)acrylonitrile) (PIDSB) and 2,3-bis(4'-(1-phenyl-1H-phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazol-2-yl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl)fumaronitrile (PIDPh), are designed and synthesized. Both of them possess high thermal stabilities. PIDPh shows typical characteristics of aggregation-induced emission enhancement, while PIDSB displays aggregation-caused quenching effect. They both exhibit much red-shifted emissions compared with PIM owing to intramolecular charge transfer. In film state, the emission peaks of PIDSB and PIDPh locate at 538 nm and 605 nm with high photoluminescent quantum yields of 63.82% and 41.26%, respectively. The non-doped OLED using PIDPh as the active layer shows the maximum external quantum efficiency of 2.06% with a very low efficiency roll-off, and exhibits the electroluminescent peak at 640 nm with a Commission Internationale de l'éclairage coordinate of (0.617,0.396), meeting well with the criteria of red OLEDs.
