Highly phosphorescent perfect green emitting iridium(iii) complex for application in OLEDs.

2007

A novel iridium complex, [bis-(2-phenylpyridine)(2-carboxy-4-dimethylaminopyridine)iridium(III)] (N984), was synthesized and characterized using spectroscopic and electrochemical methods; a solution processable OLED device incorporating the N984 complex displays electroluminescence spectra with a narrow bandwidth of 70 nm at half of its intensity, with colour coordinates of x = 0.322; y = 0.529 that are very close to those suggested by the PAL standard for a green emitter.

Single step deposition of an interacting layer of a perovskite matrix with embedded quantum dots

2016

Hybrid lead halide perovskite (PS) derivatives have emerged as very promising materials for the development of optoelectronic devices in the last few years. At the same time, inorganic nanocrystals with quantum confinement (QDs) possess unique properties that make them suitable materials for the development of photovoltaics, imaging and lighting applications, among others. In this work, we report on a new methodology for the deposition of high quality, large grain size and pinhole free PS films (CH3NH3PbI3) with embedded PbS and PbS/CdS core/shell Quantum Dots (QDs). The strong interaction between both semiconductors is revealed by the formation of an exciplex state, which is monitored by p…

Degradation mechanisms in organic lead halide perovskite light-emitting diodes

2019

Organic–inorganic metal halide perovskites have attracted significant attention for low-cost, high-efficiency, color-pure light-emitting applications. However, as seen in many reports so-far, perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLED) suffer from poor operational lifetime, limiting their practical use. The underlying degradation mechanism is a topic of crucial importance. Here, the degradation mechanisms of methylammonium lead bromide based PeLED are investigated. When the PeLED is electrically biased, there is an initial raise in the luminance followed by a rapid reduction in luminance and current density. Microscopic studies reveal the formation of micrometer-sized spots that are photolumin…

Exploring the effect of the cyclometallating ligand in 2-(pyridine-2-yl)benzo[d]thiazole-containing iridium(III) complexes for stable light-emitting …

2018

The preparation and characterization of a series of iridium(III) ionic transition-metal complexes for application in light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) are reported. The complexes are of the type [Ir(C^N)2(N^N)][PF6] in which C^N is one of the cyclometallating ligands 2-(3-(tert-butyl)phenyl)pyridine (tppy), 2-phenylbenzo[d]thiazole (pbtz), 1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole (ppz) and 1-phenylisoquninoline (piq), and N^N is 2-(pyridine-2-yl)benzo[d]thiazole (btzpy). The variation in the C^N ligands allows the HOMO energy level to be tuned, leading to HOMO–LUMO gaps in the range 2.76–3.01 eV and values of Eox1/2 of 0.81–1.11 V. In solution, the complexes are orange to deep-red emitters (λmax in t…

High Photoluminescence Quantum Yields in Organic Semiconductor-Perovskite Composite Thin Films.

2017

One of the obstacles towards efficient radiative recombination in hybrid perovskites is a low exciton binding energy, typically in the orders of tens of meV. It has been shown that the use of electron-donor additives can lead to a substantial reduction of the non-radiative recombination in perovskite films. Herein, the approach using small molecules with semiconducting properties, which are candidates to be implemented in future optoelectronic devices, is presented. In particular, highly luminescent perovskite-organic semiconductor composite thin films have been developed, which can be processed from solution in a simple coating step. By tuning the relative concentration of methylammonium l…

Efficient Photo- and Electroluminescence by Trap States Passivation in Vacuum-Deposited Hybrid Perovskite Thin Films

2018

Methylammonium lead iodide (MAPI) has excellent properties for photovoltaic applications, although it typically shows low photoluminescence quantum yield. Here, we report on vacuum-deposited MAPI perovskites obtained by modifying the methylammonium iodide (MAI) to PbI2 ratio during vacuum deposition. By studying the excitation density dependence of the photoluminescence lifetime, a large concentration of trap states was deduced for the stoichiometric MAPI films. The use of excess MAI during vacuum processing is capable of passivating these traps, resulting in luminescent films which can be used to fabricate planar light-emitting diodes with quantum efficiency approaching 2%.

2015

Two novel charged organic thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters, 1 and 2, have been synthesized. Their TADF behavior is well-supported by the multiexponential decay of their emission (nanosecond and microsecond components) and the oxygen dependence of the photoluminescence quantum yields. Spin-coated electroluminescent devices have been fabricated to make light-emitting electrochemical cells (LEECs) and organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). The first example of a non-doped charged small organic molecule LEEC is reported and exhibited an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 0.39% using 2. With a multilayer architecture, a solution-processed OLED device using neat 2 as the…

Pyranylidene indene-1,3-dione derivatives as an amorphous red electroluminescence material

2011

The organic light-emitting diode (OLED) has promising applications in flat-panel displays and novel light sources. Thus far, OLED structures have mostly been made by thermal evaporation in vacuum. An alternative approach is to use small molecules that form amorphous (glassy) structures from solutions. Such compounds can be used in ink-jet printing technologies and result in reduced OLED prices. We present an original red fluorescent organic compo- und 2-(2-(4-(bis(2-(trityloxy)ethyl)amino)styryl)-6-methyl-4H-pyran-4-ylidene)-1H-indene-1, 3(2H)-dione (ZWK1), and its derivative 2-(2,6-bis(4-(bis(2-(trityloxy)ethyl) amino)styryl)-4H- pyran-4-ylidene)-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione (ZWK2), where the m…
