Electroluminescent Performances of Solution-processed Phosphorescent Organic Light-emitting Diodes Based on Cascade Energy Transfer of Ternary Blends增强出版
Phosphorescent metal complexes tend to be quenched at high concentration. The host-guest strategy is usually employed to improve the electroluminescent efficiency. Due to the reverse intersystem crossing, thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials could potentially achieve 100% internal quantum efficiency. To explore the influence of the host on the electroluminescence of the solution-processed organic light-emitting devices, the ternary-blend emitting layers were constructed with a TADF polymer as the sensitizer and a phosphorescent emitter which were hosted by a conventional fluorescent material and a TADF material, respectively. For the phosphorescent emitter with the concentration of 1%, 5% and 50%, the external quantum efficiencies of the devices based on the sky-blue TADF host were respectively higher than those of the devices based on the conventional fluorescent host. With 1 % phosphorescent emitter PO-01-TB doped in the ternary-blend emitting layer, the peak external quantum efficiency of the solution-processed device hosted by the TADF material DMAC-DPS was up to 12.2%, which was 14% higher than that of the device with the fluorescent host (10.7%). This is attributed to efficient cascade energy transfer in the presence of the TADF host with the bipolar property and reverse intersystem crossing, which alleviates the triplet annihilation and quenching effects under high driving current.
