The characterization of electroplex generated from the interface between 2-(4-trifluoromethyl-2-hydroxyphenyl)benzothiazole] zinc and N,N′-diphenyl-N,N′- bis(1-naphthyl)-(1,1′-biphenyl)-4,4′-diamine

摘要

The electroplex between (2-(4-trifluoromethyl-2-hydroxyphenyl)benzothiazole) zinc [Zn(4-TfmBTZ)₂] as an electron-acceptor and N,N′-diphenyl-N,N′-bis(1-naphthyl)-(1,1′-biphenyl)-4,4′-diamine (NPB) as an electron-donor was characterized by bilayer, blend, and multilayer quantum-well (MQW) device, respectively. The blend composition and quantum-well number are effective parameters for tuning electroluminescence color. White light with high color purity and color rendering index (CRI) was observed from these devices based on Zn(4-TfmBTZ)₂/NPB. Moreover, the blend and MQW devices all exhibit high operation stability, hence excellent color stability. For the device with 5 mol% NPB in blend layer, its Commission International Del’Eclairage (CIE) coordinate region is x=0.28–0.31, y=0.33–0.35 and CRI is 83.3–91.2 at 5–9 V. For MQW structure device with NPB of 60 nm thickness, its CIE coordinate region is x=0.29–0.32, y=0.31–0.34 and CRI=87.9–92.5 at 10–15 V. Such high color stability and purity and CRI, being close to ideal white light, are of current important for white OLED.
