摘要
Due to the high decay rate of the non-radiative transition of long wavelengths, the molecular design of efficient and stable near-infrared(NIR) electroluminescent materials remains a big challenge. Herein,a new tetradentate cyclometalated platinum(II) complex with an N∧C∧C∧N coordinated framework has been developed and used as a dopant for NIR organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs). The complex exhibited a short-lived(0.5–1.5 μs) metal-to-ligand charge transfer(MLCT) excited state in doped and neat films. The resulting NIR OLEDs(λ_(EL)= 730 nm) achieved maximum external quantum efficiency(EQE_(max))of 5.2% and radiance of 74626 m W sr^(-1)m^(–2). Of note, the device exhibited excellent stability with operational lifetime of 119 h for LT_(90). This work demonstrated the great potential of tetradentate platinum(II)complexes in the field of NIR OLEDs.
