Strategies towards rational design of gold(iii) complexes for high-performance organic light-emitting devices
摘要: Gold(iii) complexes are attractive candidates as phosphorescent dopants in organic light-emitting devices for high-luminance full-colour displays. However, no data on the stability of such devices have been reported to date. Through rational molecular design and synthesis, we have successfully generated a new class of cyclometalated gold(iii) C^C^N complexes with tunable emission colours spanning from sky-blue to red. These complexes exhibit high photoluminescence quantum yields of up to 80% in solid-state thin films, excellent solubility and high thermal stability. Solution-processable and vacuum-deposited organic light-emitting devices based on these complexes operate with external quantum efficiencies of up to 11.9% and 21.6%, respectively, and operational half-lifetimes of up to 83,000 h at 100 cd m?2.

Blue-green-emitting cationic iridium complexes with oxadiazole-type counter-anions and their use for highly efficient solution-processed organic light-emitting diodes
摘要: Cationic iridium complexes are promising phosphorescent dopants for solution-processed organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and counter-anion control has emerged as a facile approach to tailor their properties for high-performance devices. A series of oxadiazole-type anions, 3-(5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)benzenesulfonate (OXD-SO3?), 3-(5-(4-(tert-butyl)phenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)benzenesulfonate (tBuOXD-SO3?) and (3-(5-(4-(tert-butyl)phenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)phenyl)trifluoroborate (tBuOXD-BF3?), have been prepared as counter-anions for blue-green-emitting cationic iridium complexes. The photophysical and electrochemical properties of the anions and the complexes have been comprehensively characterized. The anions do not affect the emission properties of the phosphorescent cation and efficiently transfer their energy to the cations in films. Solution-processed, double-layer OLEDs using the complexes as dopants have shown much higher (~1.4) efficiencies than the device using the reference complex with a PF6? counter-anion, owing to the improvement of carrier transport/recombination balance by the electron-trapping effect of oxadiazole-type anions. In particular, the blue-green device using the complex with the OXD-SO3? counter-anion affords a peak current efficiency of 37.6 cd A?1 and a peak external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 15.2%, which is the highest for solution-processed OLEDs based on cationic iridium complexes reported so far.
