Abstract: | A novel host material featuring the characteristics of bipolarity and thermally activated delayed fluorescence, 10-(4-(5,5-dimethylbenzofuro[3,2-c]acridin-13(5H)-yl)phenyl)-10-phenylanthracen-9(10H)-one (DphAn-5BzAc), has been designed and synthesized. By employing this material as the host of green emitter Ir(ppy)2acac, we have fabricated phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PhOLEDs) with two hosting schemes, which are the single host system consisting of DhAn-5BzAc and the co-host system with 1,3-bis(carbazolyl)benzene (mCP). We found that the co-host based PhOLED achieved very low energy consumption values at high brightnesses, which were only 0.5, 5.9 and 94.0 mW m−2 at 100, 1000 and 10 000 cd m−2, respectively. The extremely low energy consumption for DhAn-based PhOLEDs were attributed to the excellent bipolar transport properties and thermally activated delayed fluorescence characteristics.A bipolar host material 10-(4-(5,5-dimethylbenzofuro[3,2-c]acridin-13(5H)-yl)phenyl)-10-phenylanthracen-9(10H)-one (DphAn-5BzAc) with TADF properties, has been synthesized. |
