Definitions
- This disclosure relates to organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), and more particularly to OLEDs with emissive layers including phosphorescent and fluorescent emitters.
- OLEDs Organic light emitting devices
- LCDs liquid crystal displays
- OLEDs have shown promise as next generation solid state white lighting, use in medical devices, and as infrared emitters for communication applications.
- the use of organic materials presents a number of unique benefits including: compatibility with flexible substrates, capabilities for large scale production, and simplified tuning of the emission properties through molecular modification.
- FIG. 1 depicts a cross-sectional view of an OLED 100 .
- OLED 100 includes substrate 102 , anode 104 , hole-transporting material(s) (HTL) 106 , light processing material (EML) 108 , electron-transporting material(s) (ETL) 110 , and a metal cathode layer 112 .
- Anode 104 may be indium tin oxide (ITO).
- Light processing material 108 may be an emissive material (EML) including an emitter and a host.
- a typical OLED device includes at least one transparent electrode through which light is emitted.
- OLEDs that emit through the bottom substrate typically contain a transparent conductive oxide material, such as indium tin oxide, as an anode, while at the cathode a reflective metal is typically used.
- a transparent conductive oxide material such as indium tin oxide
- devices may emit from the top through a thin metal layer as the cathode while having an either opaque or transparent anode layer. In this way it is possible to have dual emission from both top and bottom if such a device is so desired and furthermore it is possible for these OLEDs to be transparent.
- Sandwiched between the electrodes is typically a multilayer organic stack.
- a multilayer organic stack typically includes a single layer of hole-transporting materials (HTL), a single layer of emissive materials (EML) including emitters and hosts, a single layer of electron-transporting materials (ETL) and a layer of metal cathode, as depicted in FIG. 1 .
- HTL hole-transporting materials
- EML emissive materials
- ETL electron-transporting materials
- metal cathode a layer of metal cathode
- the emissive layer may be composed of a single emissive material, a single emissive material dispersed in a host matrix material, multiple emissive materials dispersed in a host matrix, or any number of emissive materials dispersed in multiple host materials.
- the host materials are typically chosen carefully to not quench the excited state of the emitter as well as to provide appropriate distribution of charges and excitons within the emissive layer.
- the emission color of the OLED is determined by the emission energy (optical energy gap) of emitters.
- emission from the singlet state can be very rapid and consequently very efficient. Nevertheless, statistically there is only 1 singlet exciton for every 3 triplet excitons formed. There are very few fluorescent emitters which exhibit emission from the triplet state at room temperature, so 75% of the generated excitons are wasted in most fluorescent emitters.
- emission from the triplet state can be facilitated through spin orbit coupling which incorporates a heavy metal atom in order to perturb the triplet state and add in some singlet character to and achieve a higher probability of radiative relaxation.
- Some efficient emitters include heavy metals such as Ir, Pt, Pd, Au, Os, Rh, and Ru, which can emit efficiently across the visible spectrum.
- phosphorescent OLEDs i.e. OLEDs with phosphorescent materials as emitters
- Recently, reports of OLEDs with electron to photon conversion efficiencies near 100% across the visible spectrum have been demonstrated.
- efficient phosphorescent emissive materials that also demonstrate long operational stability in a device setting, particularly in the blue region.
- Fluorescent OLEDs i.e., OLEDs with fluorescent materials as emitters
- fluorescent emitters typically do not contain precious metals and are not affected by triplet-triplet annihilation which degrades device performance at high current densities.
- a light emitting device in a general aspect, includes a first electrode, a hole transporting layer in contact with the first electrode, a second electrode, an electron transporting layer in contact with the second electrode; and an emissive layer between the hole transporting layer and the electron transporting layer.
- the emissive layer includes a phosphorescent emitter, a fluorescent emitter, and a host, and the phosphorescent emitter harvests electrogenerated excitons and transfers energy to the fluorescent emitter.
- the emissive layer is a single layer including the host, the phosphorescent emitter, and the fluorescent emitter.
- the phosphorescent emitter may include a luminophore with a six-membered chelation ring.
- Each emitter layer may be adjacent to at least one donor layer.
- Light emitting devices described herein may be fluorescent organic light emitting devices.
- the disclosed light emitting devices generally redistribute the excited states to primarily reside on known stable fluorescent emitters to achieve high device operational stability but maintain the high efficiency characteristic of phosphorescent OLEDs.

- independent substituents it is meant that each R substituent can be independently defined. For example, if in one instance R n(a) is halogen, then R n(b) is not necessarily halogen in that instance.
- R, R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , etc. are made in chemical structures and moieties disclosed and described herein. Any description of R, R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , etc. in the specification is applicable to any structure or moiety reciting R, R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , etc. respectively.
- OLEDs described herein use phosphorescent platinum complexes as efficient exciton harvesters while emitting primarily from stable fluorescent emitters in order to enhance the device operational lifetime.
- both phosphorescent platinum complexes and fluorescent emitters must be present in the EML, and energy transfer between the phosphorescent and fluorescent materials is necessary.
- Dexter energy transfer is a short range transport which consists of consecutive hopping of excitons between neighboring molecules and depends on the orbital overlap between the molecules.
- FRET is a long range transport process in which dipole coupling between an excited donor molecule (D) and a ground state acceptor molecule (A) leads to a long range non-radiative transfer. This process depends on the overlap between the emission profile of D and the absorption of A. This transfer mechanism requires an allowed relaxation transition of the donor molecule and an allowed excitation mechanism of the acceptor molecules. As such, FRET typically occurs between singlet excitons. However, if the phosphorescent emission process of the donor molecule is efficient, transfer between the triplet of the donor molecule and the singlet of the acceptor molecule is also possible.
- triplet emitters are less stable than singlet emitters with the same emission energy
- the relocation of exciton from triplet emitters to known stable blue singlet emitters may improve the device operational stability. This may be achieved by harvesting the electrogenerated excitons with a phosphorescent material, then transferring the energy to a fluorescent emitter through a FRET mechanism. This process may be achieved by OLEDs with different designs, including: 1) a single emissive layer containing both the phosphorescent emitter and the fluorescent emitter doped into a host matrix, as depicted in FIG. 3 ; and 2) an emissive layer containing alternating fluorescent and phosphorescent doped layers, as depicted in FIG. 4 . In both cases, there are constraints on the suitable materials.
- the emission spectrum of the phosphorescent emitter must have spectral overlap with the absorption spectrum of the fluorescent emitter in order for the FRET process to occur. Additionally, the photoluminescent quantum yield of the phosphorescent material must be high enough to ensure that the dipole relaxation in the FRET process can occur with high efficiency. Similarly, the photoluminescent quantum yield of the fluorescent emitter must be high enough to ensure efficient emission.
- the first case includes OLED device 300 .
- Device 300 includes substrate 302 , anode 304 , HTL 306 , emissive layer 308 , ETL 310 , and metal cathode 312 .
- the anode may be ITO.
- Emissive layer 308 typically includes a phosphorescent sensitizer (emitter) and a fluorescent emitter dispersed within a host matrix. When both the phosphorescent and fluorescent materials exist within the same layer, care must be taken to avoid direct formation of excitons on the fluorescent emitter (which can only harvest singlet excitons) to ensure that most or all (e.g., 100%) of the electrogenerated excitons are utilized.
- the concentration of the fluorescent emitter must be high enough for there to close proximity between the phosphorescent material and the fluorescent emitter so that rapid transfer from the phosphorescent emitter to the fluorescent emitter can be achieved and direct phosphorescent emission or triplet-triplet annihilation can be avoided.
- the second case includes OLED device 400 .
- Device 400 includes substrate 402 , anode 404 , HTL 406 , phosphorescent sensitizer (emitter) layer 408 , fluorescent emitter layer 410 , phosphorescent sensitizer (emitter) layer 412 , ETL 414 , and metal cathode 416 .
- Anode 404 may be ITO.
- Phosphorescent and fluorescent emitter layers 408 , 410 , and 412 form the emissive layer (EML).
- EML emissive layer
- FIG. 4 a space is depicted between layers 408 and 410 for clarity.
- Fluorescent emitter layer 410 and phosphorescent emitter layer 412 alternate and may be present in pairs (e.g., n pairs, where n is an integer such as 1, 2, 3, or the like).
- the thickness and location of the layers is typically tuned to ensure that exciton formation primarily occurs in the region that is doped with the phosphorescent material. Furthermore, the region that contains the fluorescent doped layer should be close enough to the exciton formation zone so that the fluorescent emitters are within the distance for FRET to occur.

Description
- This application claims priority to U.S. Ser. No. 62/040,470 entitled “ORGANIC LIGHT-EMITTING DIODES WITH FLUORESCENT AND PHOSPHORESCENT EMITTERS” and filed on Aug. 22, 2014, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
- This invention was made with government support under DE-EE0005075 awarded by the Department of Energy. The government has certain rights in the invention.
- This disclosure relates to organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), and more particularly to OLEDs with emissive layers including phosphorescent and fluorescent emitters.
- Organic light emitting devices (OLEDs) are typically multilayer devices which upon an applied voltage are capable emitting light from the radiative relaxation of an excited state located on an organic material. OLEDs have found widespread application as an alternative to liquid crystal displays (LCDs) for handheld devices or flat panel displays. Furthermore, OLEDs have shown promise as next generation solid state white lighting, use in medical devices, and as infrared emitters for communication applications. The use of organic materials presents a number of unique benefits including: compatibility with flexible substrates, capabilities for large scale production, and simplified tuning of the emission properties through molecular modification.

FIG. 1 depicts a cross-sectional view of anOLED 100. OLED 100 includessubstrate 102,anode 104, hole-transporting material(s) (HTL) 106, light processing material (EML) 108, electron-transporting material(s) (ETL) 110, and ametal cathode layer 112.Anode 104 may be indium tin oxide (ITO).Light processing material 108 may be an emissive material (EML) including an emitter and a host. A typical OLED device includes at least one transparent electrode through which light is emitted. For example, OLEDs that emit through the bottom substrate typically contain a transparent conductive oxide material, such as indium tin oxide, as an anode, while at the cathode a reflective metal is typically used. Alternatively, devices may emit from the top through a thin metal layer as the cathode while having an either opaque or transparent anode layer. In this way it is possible to have dual emission from both top and bottom if such a device is so desired and furthermore it is possible for these OLEDs to be transparent. Sandwiched between the electrodes is typically a multilayer organic stack. A multilayer organic stack typically includes a single layer of hole-transporting materials (HTL), a single layer of emissive materials (EML) including emitters and hosts, a single layer of electron-transporting materials (ETL) and a layer of metal cathode, as depicted inFIG. 1 . - For each of the transport layers, care must be taken to optimize the separate process of facilitating charge injection, having efficient charge transport, and confining the charges and excitons in a specified emissive region (typically the emissive layer). Such a process can be achieved through either a single material or through a multilayer stack which may separate the injection, transport, charge confining, and exciton confining tasks. The emissive layer may be composed of a single emissive material, a single emissive material dispersed in a host matrix material, multiple emissive materials dispersed in a host matrix, or any number of emissive materials dispersed in multiple host materials. The host materials are typically chosen carefully to not quench the excited state of the emitter as well as to provide appropriate distribution of charges and excitons within the emissive layer. The emission color of the OLED is determined by the emission energy (optical energy gap) of emitters.
- Light is generated in OLEDs through the formation of excited states from separately injected electrons and holes to form an exciton, located on the organic material. Due to the uncorrelated nature of the injected charges, excitons with total spin of 0 and 1 are possible.
Spin 0 excitons are denoted singlets, while spin 1 excitons are denoted triplets, reflecting their respective degeneracies. Due to the selection rules for radiative transitions, the symmetry of the excited state and the ground state must be the same. Since the ground state of most molecules are antisymmetric, radiative relaxation of the symmetric triplet excited state is typically disallowed. As such, emission from the triplet state, called phosphorescence, is very slow and the transition probability is very low. However emission from the singlet state, called fluorescence, can be very rapid and consequently very efficient. Nevertheless, statistically there is only 1 singlet exciton for every 3 triplet excitons formed. There are very few fluorescent emitters which exhibit emission from the triplet state at room temperature, so 75% of the generated excitons are wasted in most fluorescent emitters. However, emission from the triplet state can be facilitated through spin orbit coupling which incorporates a heavy metal atom in order to perturb the triplet state and add in some singlet character to and achieve a higher probability of radiative relaxation. - Some efficient emitters include heavy metals such as Ir, Pt, Pd, Au, Os, Rh, and Ru, which can emit efficiently across the visible spectrum. Thus, due to their typically high efficiencies, phosphorescent OLEDs (i.e. OLEDs with phosphorescent materials as emitters) have been a mainstay in OLED development. Recently, reports of OLEDs with electron to photon conversion efficiencies near 100% across the visible spectrum have been demonstrated. However, there remains a deficit of efficient phosphorescent emissive materials that also demonstrate long operational stability in a device setting, particularly in the blue region. Fluorescent OLEDs (i.e., OLEDs with fluorescent materials as emitters), on the other hand, have found widespread use in devices with long operational lifetime. Furthermore, fluorescent emitters typically do not contain precious metals and are not affected by triplet-triplet annihilation which degrades device performance at high current densities.
- In a general aspect, a light emitting device includes a first electrode, a hole transporting layer in contact with the first electrode, a second electrode, an electron transporting layer in contact with the second electrode; and an emissive layer between the hole transporting layer and the electron transporting layer. The emissive layer includes a phosphorescent emitter, a fluorescent emitter, and a host, and the phosphorescent emitter harvests electrogenerated excitons and transfers energy to the fluorescent emitter.
- Certain implementations may include one or more of the following features. In some cases, the emissive layer is a single layer including the host, the phosphorescent emitter, and the fluorescent emitter. The phosphorescent emitter may include a luminophore with a six-membered chelation ring. In certain cases, the emissive layer includes n emitter layers including the host and the fluorescent emitter, and m donor layers including the host and the phosphorescent emitter, where n and m are integers ≥1. n and m may be equal. In some cases, n=m+1 or m=n+1. Each emitter layer may be adjacent to at least one donor layer.
- Light emitting devices described herein may be fluorescent organic light emitting devices. The disclosed light emitting devices generally redistribute the excited states to primarily reside on known stable fluorescent emitters to achieve high device operational stability but maintain the high efficiency characteristic of phosphorescent OLEDs.

These symbols can be any substituent, not limited to those disclosed herein, and when they are defined to be certain substituents in one instance, they can, in another instance, be defined as some other substituents.
- The term “alkyl” as used herein is a branched or unbranched saturated hydrocarbon group of 1 to 24 carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, s-butyl, t-butyl, n-pentyl, isopentyl, s-pentyl, neopentyl, hexyl, heptyl, octyl, nonyl, decyl, dode cyl, tetradecyl, hexadecyl, eicosyl, tetracosyl, and the like. The alkyl group can be cyclic or acyclic. The alkyl group can be branched or unbranched. The alkyl group can also be substituted or unsubstituted. For example, the alkyl group can be substituted with one or more groups including, but not limited to, alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkoxy, amino, ether, halide, hydroxy, nitro, silyl, sulfo-oxo, or thiol, as described herein. A “lower alkyl” group is an alkyl group containing from one to six (e.g., from one to four) carbon atoms.
- Throughout the specification “alkyl” is generally used to refer to both unsubstituted alkyl groups and substituted alkyl groups; however, substituted alkyl groups are also specifically referred to herein by identifying the specific substituent(s) on the alkyl group. For example, the term “halogenated alkyl” or “haloalkyl” specifically refers to an alkyl group that is substituted with one or more halide, e.g., fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine. The term “alkoxyalkyl” specifically refers to an alkyl group that is substituted with one or more alkoxy groups, as described below. The term “alkylamino” specifically refers to an alkyl group that is substituted with one or more amino groups, as described below, and the like. When “alkyl” is used in one instance and a specific term such as “alkylalcohol” is used in another, it is not meant to imply that the term “alkyl” does not also refer to specific terms such as “alkylalcohol” and the like.
- This practice is also used for other groups described herein. That is, while a term such as “cycloalkyl” refers to both unsubstituted and substituted cycloalkyl moieties, the substituted moieties can, in addition, be specifically identified herein; for example, a particular substituted cycloalkyl can be referred to as, e.g., an “alkylcycloalkyl.” Similarly, a substituted alkoxy can be specifically referred to as, e.g., a “halogenated alkoxy,” a particular substituted alkenyl can be, e.g., an “alkenylalcohol,” and the like. Again, the practice of using a general term, such as “cycloalkyl,” and a specific term, such as “alkylcycloalkyl,” is not meant to imply that the general term does not also include the specific term.

Alternatively, the amino group can be attached to the backbone of the alkyl group. The nature of the group(s) that is (are) selected will determine if the first group is embedded or attached to the second group.
- Compounds described herein may contain “optionally substituted” moieties. In general, the term “substituted,” whether preceded by the term “optionally” or not, means that one or more hydrogens of the designated moiety are replaced with a suitable substituent. Unless otherwise indicated, an “optionally substituted” group may have a suitable substituent at each substitutable position of the group, and when more than one position in any given structure may be substituted with more than one substituent selected from a specified group, the substituent may be either the same or different at every position. Combinations of substituents envisioned by this disclosure are preferably those that result in the formation of stable or chemically feasible compounds. In is also contemplated that, in certain aspects, unless expressly indicated to the contrary, individual substituents can be further optionally substituted (i.e., further substituted or unsubstituted).
- In some aspects, a structure of a compound can be represented by a formula:
- which is understood to be equivalent to a formula:
- wherein n is typically an integer. That is, Rn is understood to represent up to five independent non-hydrogen substituents, Rn(a), Rn(b), Rn(c), Rn(d), Rn(e). By “independent substituents,” it is meant that each R substituent can be independently defined. For example, if in one instance Rn(a) is halogen, then Rn(b) is not necessarily halogen in that instance.
- Several references to R, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, etc. are made in chemical structures and moieties disclosed and described herein. Any description of R, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, etc. in the specification is applicable to any structure or moiety reciting R, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, etc. respectively.
- OLEDs described herein use phosphorescent platinum complexes as efficient exciton harvesters while emitting primarily from stable fluorescent emitters in order to enhance the device operational lifetime. To achieve this, both phosphorescent platinum complexes and fluorescent emitters must be present in the EML, and energy transfer between the phosphorescent and fluorescent materials is necessary. Two major mechanisms to exciton transport exist, namely the Dexter energy transfer and Förster resonant energy transfer (FRET) mechanisms. Dexter energy transfer is a short range transport which consists of consecutive hopping of excitons between neighboring molecules and depends on the orbital overlap between the molecules. FRET is a long range transport process in which dipole coupling between an excited donor molecule (D) and a ground state acceptor molecule (A) leads to a long range non-radiative transfer. This process depends on the overlap between the emission profile of D and the absorption of A. This transfer mechanism requires an allowed relaxation transition of the donor molecule and an allowed excitation mechanism of the acceptor molecules. As such, FRET typically occurs between singlet excitons. However, if the phosphorescent emission process of the donor molecule is efficient, transfer between the triplet of the donor molecule and the singlet of the acceptor molecule is also possible.
- The stability of blue phosphorescent OLEDs has remained as a great technical challenge for OLED displays and lighting applications. If triplet emitters are less stable than singlet emitters with the same emission energy, the relocation of exciton from triplet emitters to known stable blue singlet emitters may improve the device operational stability. Thus, a process may occur, such as that depicted in
FIG. 2 , in which excitons are formed on a phosphorescent emitter, which can then transfer via FRET to a fluorescent donor material and emit with high efficiency. Such a process may maintain the efficient (e.g., 100% utilization) of electrogenerated excitons while emitting primarily from the fluorescent emitter to achieve high stability and avoid triplet-triplet annihilation. As an added benefit, the color quality of EL spectra of devices may also improve if the emission originates solely from the narrow band fluorescent emitters. - If triplet emitters are less stable than singlet emitters with the same emission energy, the relocation of exciton from triplet emitters to known stable blue singlet emitters may improve the device operational stability. This may be achieved by harvesting the electrogenerated excitons with a phosphorescent material, then transferring the energy to a fluorescent emitter through a FRET mechanism. This process may be achieved by OLEDs with different designs, including: 1) a single emissive layer containing both the phosphorescent emitter and the fluorescent emitter doped into a host matrix, as depicted in
FIG. 3 ; and 2) an emissive layer containing alternating fluorescent and phosphorescent doped layers, as depicted inFIG. 4 . In both cases, there are constraints on the suitable materials. First, the emission spectrum of the phosphorescent emitter must have spectral overlap with the absorption spectrum of the fluorescent emitter in order for the FRET process to occur. Additionally, the photoluminescent quantum yield of the phosphorescent material must be high enough to ensure that the dipole relaxation in the FRET process can occur with high efficiency. Similarly, the photoluminescent quantum yield of the fluorescent emitter must be high enough to ensure efficient emission. - The first case, depicted in
FIG. 3 , includesOLED device 300.Device 300 includessubstrate 302,anode 304,HTL 306,emissive layer 308,ETL 310, andmetal cathode 312. The anode may be ITO.Emissive layer 308 typically includes a phosphorescent sensitizer (emitter) and a fluorescent emitter dispersed within a host matrix. When both the phosphorescent and fluorescent materials exist within the same layer, care must be taken to avoid direct formation of excitons on the fluorescent emitter (which can only harvest singlet excitons) to ensure that most or all (e.g., 100%) of the electrogenerated excitons are utilized. On the other hand, the concentration of the fluorescent emitter must be high enough for there to close proximity between the phosphorescent material and the fluorescent emitter so that rapid transfer from the phosphorescent emitter to the fluorescent emitter can be achieved and direct phosphorescent emission or triplet-triplet annihilation can be avoided. - The second case, depicted in
FIG. 4 , includesOLED device 400.Device 400 includessubstrate 402,anode 404,HTL 406, phosphorescent sensitizer (emitter)layer 408,fluorescent emitter layer 410, phosphorescent sensitizer (emitter)layer 412,ETL 414, andmetal cathode 416.Anode 404 may be ITO. Phosphorescent and fluorescent emitter layers 408, 410, and 412 form the emissive layer (EML). InFIG. 4 , a space is depicted betweenlayers Fluorescent emitter layer 410 andphosphorescent emitter layer 412 alternate and may be present in pairs (e.g., n pairs, where n is an integer such as 1, 2, 3, or the like). - In some implementations, the emissive layer includes n emitter layers including the host and the fluorescent emitter, and m donor layers including the host and the phosphorescent emitter, where n and m are integers ≥1. In certain implementations, n=m. In other implementations, n=m+1 or m=n+1. Each emitter layer may be adjacent to at least one donor layer.
- In
device 400, the thickness and location of the layers is typically tuned to ensure that exciton formation primarily occurs in the region that is doped with the phosphorescent material. Furthermore, the region that contains the fluorescent doped layer should be close enough to the exciton formation zone so that the fluorescent emitters are within the distance for FRET to occur. - Emitters described herein include six-membered emitters. As used herein, a “six-membered emitter” refers to an emitter with a luminophore (i.e., a portion of the emitter responsible for its luminescent properties) including a six-membered chelation ring. In one example, a six-membered phosphorescent emitter has a luminophore including a six-membered chelation ring.

- Device Fabrication: TAPC (di-[4-(N,N-di-toylyl-amino)-phyenyl]cyclohexane), TrisPCz (9,9′,9″-triphenyl-9H,9′H,9″H-3,3′:6′3″-tercarbazole), 26mCPy (2,6-bis(N-carbazolyl) pyridine), DPPS (diphenyl-bis[4-(pyridin-3-yl)phenyl]silane), BmPyPB (1,3-bis[3,5-di(pyridin-3-yl)phenyl]benzene), and BPyTP (2,7-di(2,2′-bipyridin-5-yl)triphenylene) were all synthesized by methods known in the art. HATCN (1,4,5,8,9,11-hexaazatriphenylene-hexacarbonitrile), NPD (N,N′-diphyenyl-N,N′-bis(1-naphthyl)-1,1′-biphenyl-4,4″-diamine), BAlq bis(2-methyl-8-quinolinolato)(biphenyl-4-olato)aluminum, mCBT (9,9′-(2,8-dibenzothiophenediyl)bis-9H-carbazole), mCBP (3,3-di(9H-carbazol-9-yl)biphenyl), and TBPe (2,5,8,11-tetra-tert-butylperylene) were obtained from commercial suppliers. Prior to use all materials were purified via thermal gradient sublimation under high vacuum (10−5-10−6 Torr). Devices were deposited on pre-patterned ITO substrates cleaned by sonication in deionized water, acetone, and isopropanol. The devices were fabricated by vacuum thermal evaporation at a pressure of less than 10−7 Torr. Organic layers were deposited at rates of 0.5 to 1.5 Å/s, and the Al cathode was deposited through a shadow mask without breaking vacuum, defining device areas of 0.04 cm2. The current-voltage-luminance characteristics were measured using a Keithley 2400 SourceMeter in conjunction with a Newport 818 Si Photodiode. Electroluminescent spectra were measured with an Horiba Jobin Yvon FluoroLog-3 spectrometer at a driving current of 1 mA/cm2.
- Devices A-C. TBPe, a t-butyl-perylene based fluorescent emitter, and PtNON, a phosphorescent platinum emitter, both shown below, were used in this example. These materials were selected due to the high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) for each and favorable overlap between the PtNON emission spectrum, with emission onset as low as 430 nm, and the absorption spectrum of TBPe. Furthermore, the advantage of the emission onset of PtNON at a much higher energy than the room temperature peak emission wavelength (˜500 nm) and the small stokes shift in the TBPe emitters will result in an emission primarily from the fluorescent emitter that is bluer than that of the phosphorescent emitter alone.
- OLEDs were fabricated with each general structure depicted
FIGS. 3 and 4 . For the first case (FIG. 3 ) devices were fabricated in the structure ITO/HATCN (10 nm)/NPD (40 nm)/TAPC (10 nm)/26mCPy:10% PtNON:x % TBPe (25 nm)/DPPS (10 nm)/BmPyPB (40 nm)/LiF/Al, where HATCN is 1,4,5,8,9,11-hexaazatriphenylene-hexacarbonitrile, NPD is N,N′-diphenyl-N,N′-bis(1-naphthyl)-1,1′-biphenyl-4,4″-diamine, TAPC is di-[4-(N,N-di-tolyl-amino)-phenyl]cyclohexane, 26mCPy is 2,6-bis(N-carbazolyl) pyridine, DPPS is diphenyl-bis[4-(pyridin-3-yl)phenyl]silane, and BmPyPB is 1,3-bis[3,5-di(pyridin-3-yl)phenyl]benzene. -
FIGS. 5A-5C show external efficiency vs. luminance, current-voltage characteristics, and electroluminescent spectra, respectively, for PtNON Devices A-C having the general structure depicted inFIG. 5D (ITO/HATCN/NPD/TAPc/EML/DPPS/BmPyPB/LiF/Al), where the EML for Devices A-C were (1) 10% PtNON:26mCPy; (2) 10% PtNON:1% TBPe:26mCPy; and (3) 10% PtNON:2% TBPe:26mCPy, respectively. -
Plots FIG. 5A show external quantum efficiency (EQE) versus luminance for Devices A-C, respectively. The moderate EQE of 10-15% indicate that a large portion of the electrogenerated excitons are being harvested (assuming a 100% electron to photon conversion efficiency corresponds to an EQE of 20-30% due to outcoupling losses).Plots FIG. 5B show current voltage characteristics of Devices A-C, respectively.Plots FIG. 5C show electroluminescent spectra of Devices A-C, respectively. The emission from Devices B and C originated nearly exclusively from the fluorescent emitter. When considering these results, it is understood that excitons are being formed on the phosphorescent PtNON molecules, as evidenced by the high efficiencies, which then transfer to the fluorescent TBPe emitter via FRET as evidenced by the nearly exclusive fluorescent emission. It also appears that precise control of TBPe concentration is important since the device efficiencies vary with the change of fluorescent emitter concentration. This may be due at least in part to the direct formation of excitons on the fluorescent dopant, possibly due to charge trapping as suggested by the change in current-voltage characteristics, although other mechanisms for losses may exist. -

The general structure depicted inFIG. 6D was used to circumvent the potential tradeoff between high FRET efficiency and efficiency losses from direct exciton formation on TBPe molecules. Device D was fabricated with the structure ITO/HATCN (10 nm)/NPD (40 nm)/TAPC (10 nm)/26mCPy:10% PtNON (4 nm)/26mCPy:2% TBPe (2 nm)/26mCPy:10% PtNON (4 nm)/26mCPy:2% TBPe (2 nm)/26mCPy:10% PtNON (4 nm)/DPPS (10 nm)/BmPyPB (40 nm)/LiF/Al, with alternating phosphorescent and fluorescent doped layers. - Plot 600 in

As shown inFIGS. 6A-6C , Device D exhibited an efficiency of over 20% while still exhibiting emission primarily originating from the fluorescent emitter, thereby demonstrating the capability to manipulate the emission spectrum and emit nearly exclusively from fluorescent emitters while maintaining a high efficiency. - As depicted in
FIG. 6D ,Device 630 includessubstrate 632,anode 634,layers % PtNON 642,layers % TBPe 644,layers cathode 658. This order was selected with the recombination zone located on the PtNON doped layer so that the majority of the excitons are formed on the PtNON molecules, thereby allowing harvest of 100% of the electrogenerated excitons. The layer thicknesses were also kept low so that there was a sufficiently small distance between the phosphorescent material and the fluorescent emitters to allow rapid FRET to occur. - Devices 1-2. PtNON can be used to harvest triplet excitons with and subsequently transfer the energy to a fluorescent emitter with high emission energy.
