Color-stable, high-efficiency fluorescent pure-white organic light-emitting diodes were fabricated using an electroluminescence-efficient blue host 2-(N,N-diphenylamino)-6-[4-(N,N-diphenylamino)styryl]naphthalene and yellow 5,6,11,12–tetra-phenylnaphthacene in a single emissive layer. The resultant power efficiency, at 100cd∕m2, for example, was 9.5lm∕W, and its emission changed from (0.321, 0.357) to (0.315, 0.344) for brightness increasing from 100to10000cd∕m2. The high color stability may be attributed to the device structure enabling the generation of excitons on host so that lesser excitons would form on guest, preventing exciton-quenching-caused blueshift.
A relatively high‐efficiency, fluorescent pure‐white organic light‐emitting diode was fabricated using a polysilicic acid (PSA) nanodot‐embedded polymeric hole‐transporting layer (HTL). The diode employed a mixed host in the single emissive layer, which comprised 0.5 wt % yellow 5,6,11,12‐tetra‐phenylnaphthacene doped in the mixed host of 50 % 2‐(N,N‐diphenyl‐amino)‐6‐[4‐(N,N‐diphenylamino)styryl]naphthalene and 50 % N,N′‐bis‐(1‐naphthyl)‐N,N′‐diphenyl‐1,10‐biphenyl‐4‐4′‐diamine. By incorporating 7 wt % 3 nm PSA nanodot into the HTL of poly(3,4‐ethylene‐dioxythiophene)‐poly‐(styrenesulfonate), the efficiency at 100 cd m–2 was increased from 13.5 lm W–1 (14.7 cd A–1; EQE: 7.2 %) to 17.1 lm W–1 (17.6 cd A–1; EQE: 8.3 %). The marked efficiency improvement may be attributed to the introduction of the PSA nanodot, leading to a better carrier‐injection‐balance.
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.
