Red Polymer Electrophosphorescent Devices Based on Iridium Complex with Reduced Self-quenching Effect
A highly efficient red-emitting phosphorescent polymer light-emitting diode (Ph-PLED) with a new iridium complex of bis(2-benzo thiophen-2-yl-5-trifluoromethyl-pyridinato-N
C
3
) iridium(Ⅲ) (acetylacetonate) using poly (n-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) as host material was demonstrated. The PLED offers a maximum external quantum efficiency of 4.5% with an emission peak of 648 nm. The CIE coordinates are (0.71
0.29) and independent from driving current density
indicating an efficient reduction of self-quenching effect at high doping concentrations.
