The optimal brightness of the device is 69932 cd/m2 at a voltage of 13 V, and the Commission Internationale de l’Eclairage （CIE） chromaticity coordinates are almost constant during a large voltage change of 6–12 V. Furthermore, a current efficiency of 15.3 cd/A at an illumination-relevant brightness of 1000 cd/m2 is obtained, which rolls off slightly to 13.0 cd/A at an ultra high brightness of 50000 cd/m2. We attribute this great performance to wisely selecting an appropriate spacer together with effectively utilizing the combinations of exciton-harvested orange-phosphorescence/blue-fluorescence in the device. Undoubtedly, this is one of the most exciting results in two-wavelength HWOLEDs up to now.展开更多

The opti- mized blue device exhibits a high power efficiency of 40 lm/W, external quantum efficiency of 19.2% and current efficiency of 37.7cd/A. More importantly, the device exhibits a low efficiency roll-off at 1000 cd/m^2. In addition, the white homogenous PhOLEDs only exhibits the efficiency roll-off 5.6% and 17.5%, corresponding to the brightness of 1000 and 5000cd/m^2 respectively. These interesting results demonstrate that the simple unilateral homogenous device structure is a promising way to enhance the device efficiency and reduce the efficiency roll-off.展开更多

The phosphorescent organic lightemitting device （PHOLED） based on this novel TADF host material displays a stable red phosphorescence region, a peak external quantum efficiency （EQE） value of 12.9% and a low EQE roll-off of 38.8%at a luminance of 10000 cd/m2, which is benefited from the reverse intersystem crossing （RISC） of TADF host and less populated triplet exitons. Notably, the red device based on the TADF host DMBFrX exhibits superior electroluminescence performance and reduced efficiency roll-offcompared with the one hosted by commercially available host 1,3-bis（9-carbazolyl）benzene （mCP）, illustrating the high potential of employing the TADF host material with small energy gap to reduce efficiency roll-off in PHOLED.展开更多

The geometries, electronic structures, and the lowest-lying excited states of （DBQ）2Ir（acac） and （MDQ）2Ir（acac） were investigated via density functional theory-based approaches. A series of designed models of （DBQ）2Ir（dpis）, （DBQ）2Ir（tpip）, （MDQ）2Ir（dpis） and （MDQ）2Ir（tpip） was also calculated for comparison. The structures in the ground and excited states were optimized via B3LYP method. The lowest absorptions and emissions spectra were evaluated via TD-B3LYP and TD-PBE1PBE methods, The computational results reveal that the emission peaks of the designed complexes are at around 585-640 nm, which belong to the orange-yellow wavelength. The frontier molecular orbital properties indicate that the Ir（Ⅲ） complexes have low efficiency roll-off.展开更多
