Highly transparent conductive, aluminum-doped zinc oxide (ZnO:Al) films were deposited on glass substrates by midfrequency magnetron sputtering of metallic aluminum-doped zinc target. ZnO:Al films with surface work functions between 3.7 and 4.4 eV were obtained by varying the sputtering conditions. Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) were fabricated on these ZnO:Al films. A current efficiency of higher than 3.7 cd/A, was achieved. For comparison, 3.9 cd/A was achieved by the reference OLEDs fabricated on commercial indium-tin-oxide substrates
The all‐inorganic nature of CsPbI3 perovskites allows to enhance stability in perovskite devices. Research efforts have led to improved stability of the black phase in CsPbI3 films; however, these strategies—including strain and doping—are based on organic‐ligand‐capped perovskites, which prevent perovskites from forming the close‐packed quantum dot (QD) solids necessary to achieve high charge and thermal transport. We developed an inorganic ligand exchange that leads to CsPbI3 QD films with superior phase stability and increased thermal transport. The atomic‐ligand‐exchanged QD films, once mechanically coupled, exhibit improved phase stability, and we link this to distributing strain across the film. Operando measurements of the temperature of the LEDs indicate that KI‐exchanged QD films exhibit increased thermal transport compared to controls that rely on organic ligands. The LEDs exhibit a maximum EQE of 23 % with an electroluminescence emission centered at 640 nm (FWHM: ≈31 nm). These red LEDs provide an operating half‐lifetime of 10 h (luminance of 200 cd m−2) and an operating stability that is 6× higher than that of control devices.
Aromatic-imide-based thermally activated delayed fluorescent (TADF) enantiomers, (+)-(S,S)-CAI-Cz and (-)-(R,R)-CAI-Cz, were efficiently synthesized by introducing a chiral 1,2-diaminocyclohexane to the achiral TADF unit. The TADF enantiomers exhibited high PLQYs of up to 98 %, small ΔE values of 0.06 eV, as well as obvious temperature-dependent transient PL spectra, thus demonstrating their excellent TADF properties. Moreover, the TADF enantiomers showed mirror-image CD and CPL activities. Notably, the CP-OLEDs with CPEL properties based on the TADF enantiomers not only achieved high EQE values of up to 19.7 and 19.8 %, but also displayed opposite CPEL signals with g values of -1.7×10 and 2.3×10 , which represents the first CP-OLEDs, based on the enantiomerically pure TADF materials, having both high efficiencies and intense CPEL.
A high-efficiency single-emission-layer (EML) hybrid white organic light emitting device is fabricated based on an ideal sky-blue fluorophor, DADBT, using a novel doping concentration regulation strategy, which effectively separates and respectively utilizes the singlet and triplet excitons in the single-EML. The white device shows excellent electroluminescence performance with maximum total efficiencies of 26.6%, 53.5 cd A(-1) and 67.2 lm W(-1) .
Simultaneously increased current density and open circuit voltage were achieved through doping F4-TCNQ into PEDOT:PSS in inverted perovskite solar cells.
The exact hosts for F-P hybrid WOLEDs have been first demonstrated following a new design strategy for blue fluorophors with small singlet-triplet splitting. Two novel compounds DPMC and DAPSF exhibit efficient blue fluorescence, high triplet energies and good conductivities. These merits allow us to use new simplified device designs to achieve high efficiency, slow efficiency roll-off and stable emission color.
A pure blue OLED device with reduced driving voltage has been constructed from an emissive layer of doped 9,10‐bis‐(β‐naphthyl)‐anthrene (see Figure for formula), a hole‐blocking/electron transport layer for carrier and exciton confinement, and a MgAg cathode with a thin LiF film on top to further decrease the driving voltage.
Based on a D-π-A structural
strategy incorporating carbazole
as a mild electron-donor and sulfone as an electron-acceptor with
a π-conjugation-breaking feature, two novel blue-violet emitting
materials (CzS1 and CzS2) were successfully designed and synthesized.
The two compounds exhibit high-efficiency fluorescent emissions of
intramolecular charge-transfer transition type, with impressively
high quantum yields in both solution and film states. CIE
y
below 0.06 and excellent current/power efficiencies
up to 1.89 cd A–1/1.58 lm W–1 were
achieved with their corresponding nondoped devices. These performances
currently represent the best results for OLEDs with CIE
y
< 0.06. Moreover, single-carrier devices were
also fabricated to demonstrate the bipolar characteristics as well
as to understand the different electroluminescence performance of
the two fluorophores.
