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.
