Highly efficient deep-blue OLEDs based on hybridized local and charge-transfer emitters bearing pyrene as the structural unit†
Abstract
A new family of hybridized local and charge-transfer (HLCT) emitters bearing a pyrene structural unit has been developed. Deep-blue OLEDs based on them achieved high brightness over 10 000 cd m−2, high maximum external quantum efficiency over 10.5%, and high maximum exciton utilization efficiency approaching 100%, with CIE coordinates of (0.152, 0.065).
