Abstract: | Two phosphorescent iridium complexes (psbi)2Ir(acac) and (ppbi)2Ir(acac) (psbi = 1-phenyl-2-styryl-1H-benzod]imidazole, ppbi = 1-phenyl-2-(1-phenylprop-1-en-2-yl)-1H-benzod]imidazole, acac = acetylacetonate) were synthesized, and their photophysical, electrochemical and electroluminescent properties were also studied. Organic light-emitting devices with these two complexes as dopant emitters having the structure ITO/NPB (10 nm)/TCTA (20 nm)/x%Ir:CBP (y nm)/BCP (10 nm)/LiF (1 nm)/Al (100 nm) were fabricated. The device based on (psbi)2Ir(acac) exhibited a maximum brightness of 56,162 cd m?2, while the device based on (ppbi)2Ir(acac) gave a maximum brightness of 31,232 cd m?2. At high brightness of 1000 cd m?2 and 10,000 cd m?2, high current efficiencies of 25.7 cd A?1 and 20.7 cd A?1 were achieved, respectively, for the (psbi)2Ir(acac)-based EL device. For the EL device based on (ppbi)2Ir(acac), current efficiencies of 20.1 cd A?1 at 1000 cd m?2 and 14.2 cd A?1 at 10,000 cd m?2 were observed. |
