Highly Efficient Green Phosphorescent Organic Light Emitting Diodes with Improved Efficiency Roll-Off

Abstract

A 10-nm thick 4,4',4''-tris(carbazole-9-yl)tri-phenylamine (TcTa) interlayer effectively confines triplet excitons within the emissive layer (EML) of phosphorescent organic light emitting diodes (PHOLEDs) based on greenemitting Ir(ppy)3 dopant and improves the charge balance in the EML of the device, resulting the higher device efficiencies of 61.7 cd/A, 19.7 %, and 43.2 lm/W with the maximum luminance of 75,310 cd/m2 and highly improved efficiency roll-off (22.2% at 20 mA/cm2) when compared to those (61.1 cd/A, 19.6 %, and 47.2 lm/W with a maximum luminance of 38,350 cd/m2) of the standard device with efficiency roll-off of 62.3 % at 20 mA/cm2.
