Simultaneously Realizing High Efficiency and High Color Rendering Index for Hybrid White Organic Light-Emitting Diodes by Ultra-Thin Design of Delayed Fluorescence Sensitized Phosphorescent Layers

© 2023 Wiley-VCH GmbH..

In consideration of energy economization and light quality, concurrently attaining high external quantum efficiency (ηext ) and high color rendering index (CRI) is of high significance for the commercialization of hybrid white organic light-emitting diodes (WOLEDs) but is challenging. Herein, a blue luminescent molecule (2PCz-XT) consisting of a xanthone acceptor and two 3,6-diphenylcarbazole donors is prepared, which exhibits strong delayed fluorescence, short delayed fluorescence lifetime, and excellent electroluminescence property, and can sensitize green, orange, and red phosphorescent emitters efficiently. By employing 2PCz-XT as sensitizer and phosphorescent emitters as dopants, efficient two-color and three-color WOLED architectures with ultra-thin phosphorescent emitting layers (EMLs) are proposed and constructed. By incorporating a thin interlayer to modulate exciton recombination zone and reduce exciton loss, high-performance three-color hybrid WOLEDs are finally achieved, providing a high ηext of 26.8% and a high CRI value 83 simultaneously. Further configuration optimization realizes a long device operational lifetime. These WOLEDs with ultra-thin phosphorescent EMLs are among the state-of-the-art hybrid WOLEDs in the literature, demonstrating the success and applicability of the proposed device design for developing robust hybrid WOLEDs with superb efficiency and color quality.
