Abstract

White organic light-emitting devices based on an orange phosphorescent iridium complex, bis(2-(2-fluorphenyl)-1,3-benzothiozolato- N, C2′) iridium (acetylacetonate) [(F-BT)2 Ir (acac)] and blue fluorescent 4, 4′ -bis(2, 2′ -diphenylvinyl)-1, 1′ -biphenyl are reported. By introducing a bipolar transport 4, 4′ N, N′ -dicarbazole-biphenyl layer between the fluorescent and the phosphorescent emission layers, additional light emission from (F-BT)2 Ir (acac) is observed. The authors attributed it to the elimination of the Dexter energy transfer between the two emitters. Pure white emission with Commission Internationale de I'Eclairage coordinates of (0.33, 0.34) and a maximum luminance of 40960 cd m2 were obtained. The maximum current efficiency and the color rendering index of the device are 13.4 cdA and 71, respectively. © 2007 American Institute of Physics.
