A new carbazole derivative with two carbazole moieties on the C3 and C6 positions of carbazole and triphenylsilane directly linked to the N of carbazole is successfully used as a highly efficient blue phosphorescent host in an organic light-emitting diode (PhOLED). The blue PhOLED, with this new host, gives an extremely high external quantum efficiency.
In this paper, we report on our progress on developing heavy metal free (or Cdfree) QD-LEDs for all three colors. With improvement in synthesis, we have developed high quantum yield heavy metal free quantum dots (more than 95% for red and green and more than 80% for blue), with peak wavelengths suitable for BT.2020. Building upon these high-performance quantum dots and through novel device structure design and optimization we have demonstrated high efficiency heavy metal free QD-LEDs with EQE = 16.9%, 13%, 9% for red, green, and blue, respectively. Specifically, we report a systematic study on the impact of shell thickness to the device efficiency performance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
