Abstract

A new electrophosphorescent material, iridium(III)tris(5-(2,4-difluoro- phenyl)-10,10- dimethyl-4-aza-tricycloundeca-2,4,6-triene), Ir (F2 -mppy) 3, has been synthesized and characterized. Ir (F2 -mppy) 3 shows strong blue emission peaking at 475 nm with a high phosphorescent quantum yield (ΦPL) of 0.72 in degassed toluene. Electroluminescent devices with a structure of indium tin oxide (ITO)/NPB (40 nm)Ir (F2 -mppy) 3 (x): CBP (30 nm) /BCP (6 nm) Alq3 (20 nm)Mg:Ag (10:1) and 15% (10%) exhibit a maximum luminous power efficiency of 9.58 lmW (7.68 lmW), CIE coordinates (x=0.18,y=0.36) (x=0.17,y=0.29), and a maximum luminance of ∼9000 cd m2 at 12.5 V (∼6000 cd m2 at 11.5 V). © 2006 American Institute of Physics.
