Abstract

Highly efficient light-emitting materials based on phenylquinoline-carbazole derivative has been synthesized for organic-light emitting diodes (OLEDs). The materials form high quality amorphous thin films by thermal evaporation and the energy levels can be easily adjusted by the introduction of different electron donating and electron withdrawing groups on carbazoylphenylquinoline. Non-doped deep-blue OLEDs using Et-CVz-PhQ as the emitter show bright emission (CIE coordinates, x=0.156, y=0.093) with an external quantum efficiency of 2.45 %. Furthermore, the material works as an excellent host material for BCzVBi to get high-performance OLEDs with excellent deep-blue CIE coordinates (x=0.155, y=0.157), high power efficiency (5.98 lm/W), and high external quantum efficiency (5.22 %). Cyclometalated Ir(III) μ-chloride bridged dimers were synthesized by iridium trichloride hydrate with an excess of our developed deep-blue emitter, Et-CVz-PhQ. The Ir(III) complexes were prepared by the dimers with the corresponding ancillary ligands. The chloride bridged diiridium complexes can be easily converted to mononuclear Ir(III) complexes by replacing the two bridging chlorides with bidentate monoanionic ancillary ligands. Among the various types of ancillary ligands, we firstly used picolinic acid N-oxide, including picolinic acid and acetylacetone as an ancillary ligands for Ir(III) complexes. The PhOLEDs also shows reasonably high brightness and good luminance efficiency of 20,000 cd/m² and 12 cd/A, respectively.
