To explore the effect of red phosphorescent dopant on the color rendering index （CRI）, the authors investigate the wavelength position of the maximum emission peak from three phosphorescent dopants. The CRI and luminous efficiency of white PHOLED in which Ir（pq）2（acac） acts as the red phosphorescent dopant are found to be greater than those of devices prepared using Ir（piq）3 and Ir（btp）2（acac） as the emission spectrum has a relatively high intensity near the human perception of blue, red, and green wavelengths. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the performance of the three dopants is related to the absorption characteristics of the red phosphorescent dopant. With a maximum emission peak at 600 nm, Ir（pq）2（acac） has a higher intensity in the concave section between 550 and 600 nm seen for red and blue dopants. In addition, the long metal-to-ligand charge transfer （MLCT） absorption tail of Ir（pq）2（acac） overlaps with the emission spectra of the green dopant, enhancing emission. Such energy transfer mechanisms are confirmed to optimize white emission in the single emissive white PHOLEDs.展开更多
