Facile Photo‐Crosslinking of Azide‐Containing Hole‐Transporting Polymers for Highly Efficient,Solution‐Processed,Multilayer Organic Light Emitting Devices

A novel framework of azide containing photo‐crosslinkable, conducting copolymer, that is, poly(azido‐styrene)‐random‐poly(triphenylamine) (X‐PTPA), is reported as a hole‐transporting material for efficient solution‐processed, multi‐layer, organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). A facile and energy‐efficient crosslinking process is demonstrated with UV irradiation (254 nm, 2 mW/cm²) at a short exposure time (5 min). By careful design of X‐PTPA, in which 5 mol% of the photo‐crosslinkable poly(azido‐styrene) is copolymerized with hole‐transporting poly(triphenylamine) (X‐PTPA‐5), the adverse effect of the crosslinking of azide moieties is prevented to maximize the performances of X‐PTPA‐5. Since the photo‐crosslinking chemistry of azide molecules does not involve any photo‐initiators, superior hole‐transporting ability is achieved, producing efficient devices. To evaluate the performances of X‐PTPA‐5 as a hole‐transporting/electron‐blocking layer, Ir(ppy)₃‐based, solution‐processable OLEDs are fabricated. The results show high EQE (11.8%), luminous efficiency (43.7 cd/A), and power efficiency (10.4 lm/W), which represent about twofold enhancement over the control device without X‐PTPA‐5 film. Furthermore, micro‐patterned OLEDs with the photo‐crosslinkable X‐PTPA‐5 can be fabricated through standard photolithography. The versatility of this approach is also demonstrated by introducing the same azide moiety into other hole‐transporting materials such as poly(carbazole) (X‐PBC).     

Rational Design of Charge‐Neutral,Near‐Infrared‐Emitting Osmium(II) Complexes and OLED Fabrication

A new series of charge neutral Os(II) isoquinolyl triazolate complexes ( 1 – 4 ) with both trans and cis arrangement of phosphine donors are synthesized, and their structural, electrochemical and photophysical properties are established. In sharp contrast to the cis‐arranged complexes 2 – 4 , the trans derivative 1 , which shows a planar arrangement of chromophoric N‐substituted chelates, offers the most effective extended π‐delocalization and hence the lowest excited state energy gap. These complexes exhibit phosphorescence with peak wavelengths ranging from 692–805 nm in degassed CH₂Cl₂ at room temperature. Near‐infrared (NIR)‐emitting electroluminescent devices employing 6 wt % of 1 (or 4 ) doped in Alq₃ host material are successfully fabricated. The devices incorporating 1 as NIR phosphor exhibit fairly intense emission with a peak wavelength at 814 nm. Forward radiant emittance reaches as high as 65.02 µW cm^?2, and a peak EQE of ～1.5% with devices employing Alq₃, TPBi and/or TAZ as electron‐transporting/exciton‐blocking layers. Upon switching to phosphor 4 , the electroluminescence blue shifts to 718 nm, while the maximum EQE and radiance increase to 2.7% and 93.26 (μW cm^?2) respectively. Their performances are optimized upon using TAZ as the electron transporting and exciton‐blocking material. The OLEDs characterized represent the only NIR‐emitting devices fabricated using charge‐neutral and volatile Os(II) phosphors via thermal vacuum deposition.     

Self‐assembled Electroactive Phosphonic Acids on ITO: Maximizing Hole‐Injection in Polymer Light‐Emitting Diodes

In order to fulfill the promise of organic electronic devices, performance‐limiting factors, such as the energetic discontinuity of the material interfaces, must be overcome. Here, improved performance of polymer light‐emitting diodes (PLEDs) is demonstrated using self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs) of triarylamine‐based hole‐transporting molecules with phosphonic acid‐binding groups to modify the surface of the indium tin oxide (ITO) anode. The modified ITO surfaces are used in multilayer PLEDs, in which a green‐emitting polymer, poly[2,7‐(9,9‐dihexylfluorene)‐co‐4,7‐(2,1,3‐benzothiadiazole)] (PFBT5), is sandwiched between a thermally crosslinked hole‐transporting layer (HTL) and an electron‐transporting layer (ETL). All tetraphenyl‐diamine (TPD)‐based SAMs show significantly improved hole‐injection between ITO and the HTL compared to oxygen plasma‐treated ITO and simple aromatic SAMs on ITO. The device performance is consistent with the hole‐transporting properties of triarylamine groups (measured by electrochemical measurements) and improved surface energy matching with the HTL. The turn‐on voltage of the devices using SAM‐modified anodes can be lowered by up to 3 V compared to bare ITO, yielding up to 18‐fold increases in current density and up to 17‐fold increases in brightness at 10 V. Variations in hole‐injection and turn‐on voltage between the different TPD‐based molecules are attributed to the position of alkyl‐spacers within the molecules.     

Highly Efficient Non‐Doped Blue Organic Light‐Emitting Diodes Based on Fluorene Derivatives with High Thermal Stability

A new series of blue‐light‐emitting fluorene derivatives have been synthesized and characterized. The fluorene derivatives have high fluorescence yields, good thermal stability, and high glass‐transition temperatures in the range 145–193 °C. Organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) fabricated using the fluorene derivatives as the host emitter show high efficiency (up to 5.3 cd A^–1 and 3.0 lm W^–1) and bright blue‐light emission (Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of x = 0.16, y = 0.22). The performance of the non‐doped fluorene‐based devices is among the best fluorescent blue‐light‐emitting OLEDs. The good performance of the present blue OLEDs is considered to derive from: 1) appropriate energy levels of the fluorene derivatives for good carrier injection; 2) good carrier‐transporting properties; and 3) high fluorescence efficiency of the fluorene derivatives. These merits are discussed in terms of the molecular structures.     

Characteristics of Solution‐Processed Small‐Molecule Organic Films and Light‐Emitting Diodes Compared with their Vacuum‐Deposited Counterparts

Although significant progress has been made in the development of vacuum‐deposited small‐molecule organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs), one of the most desired research goals is still to produce flexible displays by low‐cost solution processing. The development of solution‐processed OLEDs based on small molecules could potentially be a good approach but no intensive studies on this topic have been conducted so far. To fabricate high‐performance devices based on solution‐processed small molecules, the underlying nature of the produced films and devices must be elucidated. Here, the distinctive characteristics of solution‐processed small‐molecule films and devices compared to their vacuum‐deposited counterparts are reported. Solution‐processed blue OLEDs show a very high luminous efficiency (of about 8.9 cd A^–1) despite their simplified structure. A better hole‐blocking and electron‐transporting layer is essential for achieving high‐efficiency solution‐processed devices because the solution‐processed emitting layer gives the devices a better hole‐transporting capability and more electron traps than the vacuum‐deposited layer. It is found that the lower density of the solution‐processed films (compared to the vacuum‐deposited films) can be a major cause for the short lifetimes observed for the corresponding devices.     

Fluorene‐Carbazole Dendrimers: Synthesis,Thermal, Photophysical and Electroluminescent Device Properties

Novel hole‐transporting dendrimeric molecules containing dioctylfluorene, spirobi(fluorene) and spiro(cylododecane‐fluorene) as the core unit and different numbers of carbazole and thiophene moieties as the peripheral groups are synthesized. All the dendrimers are characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, FTIR, UV–vis, PL spectroscopy, and MALDI‐TOF. They are thermally stable with high glass transition and decomposition temperatures and exhibit chemically reversible redox processes. They are used as the hole‐transporting layer (HTL) material for multilayer organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) with a low turn‐on voltage of around 2.5 V and a bright green emission with a maximum luminance of around 25400 cd m^?2.     

Creation of Bifunctional Materials: Improve Electron‐Transporting Ability of Light Emitters Based on AIE‐Active 2,3,4,5‐Tetraphenylsiloles

2,3,4,5‐Tetraphenylsiloles are excellent solid‐state light emitters featured aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) characteristics, but those that can efficiently function as both light‐emitting and electron‐transporting layers in one organic light‐emitting diode (OLED) are much rare. To address this issue, herein, three tailored n‐type light emitters comprised of 2,3,4,5‐tetraphenylsilole and dimesitylboryl functional groups are designed and synthesized. The new siloles are fully characterized by standard spectroscopic and crystallographic methods with satisfactory results. Their thermal stabilities, electronic structures, photophysical properties, electrochemical behaviors and applications in OLEDs are investigated. These new siloles exhibit AIE characteristics with high emission efficiencies in solid films, and possess lower LUMO energy levels than their parents, 2,3,4,5‐tetraphenylsiloles. The double‐layer OLEDs [ITO/NPB (60 nm)/silole (60 nm)/LiF (1 nm)/Al (100 nm)] fabricated by adopting the new siloles as both light emitter and electron transporter afford excellent performances, with high electroluminescence efficiencies up to 13.9 cd A^–1, 4.35% and 11.6 lm W^–1, which are increased greatly relative to those attained from the triple‐layer devices with an additional electron‐transporting layer. These results demonstrate effective access to n‐type solid‐state emissive materials with practical utility.     

Ambipolar Conductive 2,7‐Carbazole Derivatives for Electroluminescent Devices

A series of 2,7‐disubstituted carbazole (2,7‐carb) derivatives incorporating arylamines at the 2 and 7 positions are synthesized via palladium‐catalyzed C–N or C–C bond formation. These compounds possess glass transition temperatures ranging from 87 to 217 °C and exhibit good thermal stabilities, with thermal decomposition temperatures ranging from 388 to 480 °C. They are fluorescent and emit in the purple‐blue to orange region. Two types of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) were constructed from these compounds: (I) indium tin oxide (ITO)/2,7‐carb (40 nm)/1,3,5‐tris(N‐phenylbenzimidazol‐2‐yl)benzene (TPBI, 40 nm)/Mg:Ag; and (II) ITO/2,7‐carb (40 nm)/tris(8‐hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq₃, 40 nm)/Mg:Ag. In type I devices, the 2,7‐disubstituted carbazoles function as both hole‐transporting and emitting material. In type II devices, light is emitted from either the 2,7‐disubstituted carbazole layer or Alq₃. The devices appear to have a better performance compared to devices fabricated with their 3,6‐disubstituted carbazole congeners. Some of the new compounds exhibit ambipolar conductive behavior, with hole and electron mobilities up to 10^–4 cm² V^–1 s^–1.     

Crosslinkable TAPC‐Based Hole‐Transport Materials for Solution‐Processed Organic Light‐Emitting Diodes with Reduced Efficiency Roll‐Off

1‐Bis[4‐[N,N‐di(4‐tolyl)amino]phenyl]‐cyclohexane (TAPC) has been widely used in xerography and organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs), but derivatives are little known. Here, a new series of solution‐processable, crosslinkable hole conductors based on TAPC with varying highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energies from ?5.23 eV to ?5.69 eV is implemented in blue phosphorescent OLEDs. Their superior perfomance compared with the well‐known N4,N4,N4′,N4′‐tetraphenylbiphenyl‐4,4′‐diamine (TPDs) analogues regarding hole‐injection and mobility, electron and exciton blocking capabilities, efficiency, and efficiency roll‐off is demonstrated. Overall, the TAPC‐based devices feature higher luminous and power efficiency over a broader range of brightness levels and reduced efficiency roll off. A systematic broadening of the emission zone is observed as the hole‐injection barrier between the anode and the hole‐transporting layer increased.     

Anthracene‐Containing Binaphthol Chromophores for Light‐Emitting Diode (LED) Fabrication

Non‐crystalline anthracene‐containing binaphthol chromophores were synthesized, characterized, and used in the fabrication of organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs). Specifically, the target molecules were 2,2′‐dihexyloxy‐1,1′‐binaphthol‐6,6′‐bisanthracene ( BA1 ) and 2,2′‐dimethoxyy‐1,1′‐binaphthol‐6,6′‐bisanthracene ( BA2 ). Molecules BA1 and BA2 provide amorphous solids, as determined by their glass‐transition temperature (T_g) measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Efficient multilayer OLEDs containing BA1 and BA2 were fabricated by evaporation techniques. Differences in the electroluminescence frequencies of these devices suggests that the degree of alkoxide substitution controls the mobility within the binaphthol material, and therefore the recombination region in the device. Compound BA2 can also be used to dope CBP ((4,4′‐bis(carbazol‐9‐yl)biphenyl)) in the fabrication of highly efficient OLEDs.     

Investigation of TDAPBs as hole‐transporting materials for organic light‐emitting devices (OLEDs)

The performance of organic light‐emitting devices (OLEDs) is strongly influenced by the electronic properties of the employed materials. In order to determine the effect of these materials' parameters, several different hole‐transporting 1,3,5‐tris(4‐diphenylaminophenyl)benzenes (TDAPBs) were synthesised. These TDAPBs contained different substituents, different numbers of substituents and different positions of theses substituents. For the evaluation of the electronic properties, cyclic voltammetry was employed in order to determine the HOMO values, and time‐of‐flight (TOF) measurements to obtain the hole mobilities. OLEDs were prepared consisting of the TDAPBs blended in a polymer matrix, and of Alq₃ as electron‐conducting and light‐emitting layer. These devices were investigated regarding their current density/voltage characteristics, efficiencies, onset voltages for electroluminescence, and lifetimes. For hole‐transporting blend systems an exponential relationship between the current density and the HOMO levels of the TDAPBs was found. However, even though the HOMO values cover a range from −5.09 to −5.35 eV, no effects on the performance of the OLEDs were detected for electroluminescent two‐layer systems. In this case the initial voltage seems to be a determining parameter for the behaviour of the devices during operation. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Spin‐Coated Highly Efficient Phosphorescent Organic Light‐Emitting Diodes Based on Bipolar Triphenylamine‐Benzimidazole Derivatives

A new series of star‐shaped bipolar host molecules, tris(4′‐(1‐phenyl‐1H‐benzimidazol‐2‐yl)biphen‐yl‐4‐yl) amine (TIBN), tris(2′‐methyl‐4′‐(1‐phenyl‐1H‐benzimida zol‐2‐yl)biphenyl‐4‐yl)amine (Me‐TIBN), and tris(2,2′‐dimethyl‐4′‐(1‐phenyl‐1H‐benzimidazol‐2‐yl)biphenyl‐4‐yl)amine (DM‐TIBN), that contain hole‐transporting triphenylamine and electron‐transporting benzimidazole moieties are designed based on calculations using density functional theory and successfully prepared. The theoretical calculation of energy levels of TIBN derivatives affords helpful ideas to design molecules with a favorable localization of highest occupied/lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO/LUMO) levels and a predefined enhancement of the triplet energy gap. The TIBN derivatives are employed as hosts to fabricate phosphorescent organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) by the two methods of spin‐coating and vacuum deposition. Notably, the spin‐coated Me‐TIBN and DM‐TIBN devices exhibit a much better performance than the vacuum‐deposited ones, in which the spin‐coated DM‐TIBN device (47 500 cd m^?2, 27.3 cd A^?1, 7.3 lm W^?1) is outstanding with respect to other seminal work for solution‐processed OLEDs. More importantly, the new concept of localizing HOMO and LUMO levels for bipolar molecules is illustrated, and a facile strategy to tailor the energy levels by breaking the conjugation of hole‐ and electron‐transporting moieties is demonstrated.     

Polymeric Light‐Emitting Diodes Based on Poly(p‐phenylene ethynylene), Poly(triphenyldiamine), and Spiroquinoxaline

In this paper polymeric light‐emitting diodes (LEDs) based on alkoxy‐substituted poly(p‐phenylene ethynylene) EHO‐OPPE as emitter material in combination with poly(triphenyldiamine) as hole transport material are demonstrated. Different device configurations such as single‐layer devices, two‐layer devices, and blend devices were investigated. Device improvement and optimization were obtained through careful design of the device structure and composition. Furthermore, the influence of an additional electron transporting and hole blocking layer (ETHBL), spiroquinoxaline (spiro‐qux), on top of the optimized blend device was investigated using a combinatorial method, which allows the preparation of a number of devices characterized by different layer thicknesses in one deposition step. The maximum brightness of the investigated devices increased from 4 cd/m² for a device of pure EHO‐OPPE to 260 cd/m² in a device with 25 % EHO‐OPPE + 75 % poly(N,N′‐diphenylbenzidine diphenylether) (poly‐TPD) as the emitting/hole‐transporting layer and an additional electron‐transport/hole‐blocking spiro‐qux layer of 48 nm thickness.     

Study of Configuration Differentia and Highly Efficient,Deep‐Blue,Organic Light‐Emitting Diodes Based on Novel Naphtho[1,2‐d]imidazole Derivatives

Two novel naphtho[1,2‐d]imidazole derivatives are developed as deep‐blue, light‐emitting materials for organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs). The 1H‐naphtho[1,2‐d]imidazole based compounds exhibit a significantly superior performance than the 3H‐naphtho[1,2‐d]imidazole analogues in the single‐layer devices. This is because they have a much higher capacity for direct electron‐injection from the cathode compared to their isomeric counterparts resulting in a ground‐breaking EQE (external quantum efficiency) of 4.37% and a low turn‐on voltage of 2.7 V, and this is hitherto the best performance for a non‐doped single‐layer fluorescent OLED. Multi‐layer devices consisting of both hole‐ and electron‐transporting layers, result in identically excellent performances with EQE values of 4.12–6.08% and deep‐blue light emission (Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage (CIE) y values of 0.077–0.115) is obtained for both isomers due to the improved carrier injection and confinement within the emissive layer. In addition, they showed a significantly better blue‐color purity than analogous molecules based on benzimidazole or phenanthro[9,10‐d]imidazole segments.     

Enhanced Hole Injection into Amorphous Hole‐Transport Layers of Organic Light‐Emitting Diodes Using Controlled p‐Type Doping

We demonstrate enhanced hole injection and lowered driving voltage in vacuum‐deposited organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) with a hole‐transport layer using the starburst amine 4,4′,4″‐tris(N,N‐diphenyl‐amino)triphenylamine (TDATA) p‐doped with a very strong acceptor, tetrafluoro‐tetracyano‐quinodimethane (F₄‐TCNQ) by controlled coevaporation. The doping leads to high conductivity of doped TDATA layers and a high density of equilibrium charge carriers, which facilitates hole injection and transport. Moreover, multilayer OLEDs consisting of double hole‐transport layers of thick p‐doped TDATA and a thin triphenyl‐diamine (TPD) interlayer exhibit very low operating voltages.     

Facile Synthesis of Highly Efficient Lepidine‐Based Phosphorescent Iridium(III) Complexes for Yellow and White Organic Light‐Emitting Diodes

Highly efficient lepidine‐based phosphorescent iridium(III) complexes with pentane‐2,4‐dione or triazolpyridine as ancillary ligands have been designed and prepared by a newly developed facile synthetic route. Fluorine atoms and trifluoromethyl groups have been introduced into the different positions of ligand, and their influence on the photophysical properties of complexes has been investigated in detail. All the triazolpyridine‐based complexes display the blueshifted dual‐peak emission compared to the pentane‐2,4‐dione‐based ones with a broad single‐peak emission. The complexes show emission with broad full width at half maximum (FWHM) over 100 nm, and the emissions are ranges from greenish–yellow to orange region with the absolute quantum efficiency (Φ_PL) of 0.21–0.92 in solution, i.e., Φ_PL = 0.92 ( 18 ), which is the highest value among the reported neutral yellow iridium(III) complexes. Furthermore, high‐performance yellow and complementary‐color‐based white organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) have been fabricated. The FWHMs of the yellow, greenish–yellow OLEDs are in the range of 94–102 nm, which are among the highest values of the reported yellow or greenish–yellow‐emitting devices without excimer emission. The maximum external quantum efficiency of monochrome OLEDs can reach 24.1%, which is also the highest value among the reported yellow or greenish–yellow devices. The color rendering indexes of blue and complementary yellow‐based white OLED is as high as 78.     

Solution‐Processed Full‐Color Polymer Organic Light‐Emitting Diode Displays Fabricated by Direct Photolithography

The first full‐color polymer organic light‐emitting diode (OLED) display is reported, fabricated by a direct photolithography process, that is, a process that allows direct structuring of the electroluminescent layer of the OLED by exposure to UV light. The required photosensitivity is introduced by attaching oxetane side groups to the backbone of red‐, green‐, and blue‐light‐emitting polymers. This allows for the use of photolithography to selectively crosslink thin films of these polymers. Hence the solution‐based process requires neither an additional etching step, as is the case for conventional photoresist lithography, nor does it rely on the use of prestructured substrates, which are required if ink‐jet printing is used to pixilate the emissive layer. The process allows for low‐cost display fabrication without sacrificing resolution: Structures with features in the range of 2 μm are obtained by patterning the emitting polymers via UV illumination through an ultrafine shadow mask. Compared to state‐of‐the‐art fluorescent OLEDs, the display prototype (pixel size 200 μm × 600 μm) presented here shows very good efficiency as well as good color saturation for all three colors. The application in solid‐state lighting is also possible: Pure white light [Commision Internationale de l'Éclairage (CIE) values of 0.33, 0.33 and color rendering index (CRI) of 76] is obtained at an efficiency of 5 cd A^–1 by mixing the three colors in the appropriate ratio. For further enhancement of the device efficiency, an additional hole‐transport layer (HTL), which is also photo‐crosslinkable and therefore suitable to fabricate multilayer devices from solution, is embedded between the anode and the electroluminescent layer.     

Optimization of Orange‐Emitting Electrophosphorescent Copolymers for Organic Light‐Emitting Diodes

Orange‐emitting phosphorescent copolymers containing iridium complexes and bis(carbazolyl)fluorene groups in their side chains are employed as the emissive layer in multilayer organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs). The efficiency of the OLED devices is optimized by varying characteristics of the copolymers: the molecular weight, the iridium loading level, and the nature and length of the linker between the side chains and the polymer backbone. A maximum efficiency of 4.9 ± 0.4%, 8.8 ± 0.7 cd A⁻¹ at 100 cd m⁻² is achieved with an optimized copolymer.     

High‐Tg Carbazole Derivatives as Blue‐Emitting Hole‐Transporting Materials for Electroluminescent Devices

A series of dicarbazolyl derivatives bridged by various aromatic spacers and decorated with peripheral diarylamines were synthesized using Ullmann and Pd‐catalyzed C–N coupling procedures. These derivatives emit blue light in solution. In general, they possess high glass‐transition temperatures (T_g > 125 °C) which vary with the bridging segment and methyl substitution on the peripheral amine. Double‐layer organic light‐emitting devices were successfully fabricated using these molecules as hole‐transporting and emitting materials. Devices of the configuration ITO/HTL/TPBI/Mg:Ag (ITO: indium tin oxide; HTL: hole‐transporting layer; TPBI: 1,3,5‐tris(N‐phenylbenzimidazol‐2‐yl)benzene) display blue emission from the HTL layer. The EL spectra of these devices appear slightly distorted due to the exciplex formation at the interfaces. However, for the devices of the configuration ITO/HTL/Alq₃/Mg:Ag (Alq₃ = tris(8‐hydroxyquinoline)aluminum) a bright green light from the Alq₃ layer was observed. This clearly demonstrates the facile hole‐transporting property of the materials described here.     

Tetraphenylimidazole‐Based Excited‐State Intramolecular Proton‐Transfer Molecules for Highly Efficient Blue Electroluminescence

Aiming for highly efficient blue electroluminescence, we have designed and synthesized a novel class of tetraphenylimidazole‐ based excited‐state intramolecular proton‐transfer (ESIPT) molecules with covalently linked charge‐transporting functional groups (carbazole‐ and oxadiazole‐functionalized hydroxyl‐substituted tetraphenylimidazole (HPI), i.e., HPI‐Cbz and HPI‐Oxd, respectively). High T_g (ca. 130 °C) amorphous films of HPI‐Cbz and HPI‐Oxd showed intense and ideal blue‐light emission (λ_max = 462 and 468 nm, Φ_PL = 0.44 and 0.38) with a large Stokes shift of over 160 nm and a narrow full width at half‐maximum of less than 65 nm. Organic light‐emitting devices using HPI‐Cbz and HPI‐Oxd as the emitting layer generated an efficient blue electroluminescence (EL) emission peaking at around 460 nm with excellent CIE coordinates of (x, y) = (0.15, 0.11). A maximum external quantum efficiency of 2.94%, and a maximum brightness of 1 229 cd m⁻² at 100 mA cm⁻², as well as a low turn‐on voltage of 4.8 V were achieved in this work.
