Highly efficient blue fluorescent OLEDs with doped double emitting layers based on p-n heterojunctions

We fabricate a kind of novel efficient blue fluorescent organic light emitting device（OLED） based on p-n heterojunctions composed of hole transporting layer（HTL） N,N ＇-bis（naphthalen-1-yl）-N,N ＇-bis（phenyl）-benzidine（NPB） and electron transporting layer（ETL） 4,7-diphnenyl-1,10-phenanthroline（BPhen）,into which a new blue material,DNCA（a derivation of N 6,N 6,N 12,N 12-tetrap-tolylchrysene-6,12-diamine）,is partially doped simultaneously,and double emitting layers are configured.With a turn-on voltage of 2.6 V at 1 cd/m 2,this type of OLED presents a maximum luminance efficiency（η max） of 8.83 cd/A at 5.818 mA/cm 2 and a maximum luminance of over 40000 cd/m 2.Meanwhile,the Commission Internationale De L＇Eclairage（CIE） coordinates of this device change slightly from（0.13,0.27） to（0.13,0.23） as the driving voltage increases from 3 V to 11 V.This improvement in the electroluminescent characteristics is attributed mainly to the ideal p-n heterojunction which can confine and distribute excitons evenly on two sides of the heterojunction interface so as to improve the carrier combination rate and expand the light-emitting region.
