Abstract

A novel red organic electroluminescent diode based on an ultrathin 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2- t-butyl-6-(1,1,7,7-tetramethyljulolidyl-9-enyl)-4H-pyran (DCJTB) layer has been fabricated. The device with the ultrathin DCJTB layer inserted between N, N′-bis-(1-naphthyl)- N, N′-diphenyl-1,1′-biph-enyl-4,4′- diamine (NPB) and tri-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq 3) layers has an emission from both DCJTB and Alq 3. When utilizing the 5,6,11,12-tetraphenylnaphthacene (Rubrene) bilayer as the emitting-assistant layer in the fabrication of the device, the emission from Alq 3 disappears. We attribute the improvement of color purity to the exciton confinement and energy transfer from the Rubrene molecular. The device with 0.1 nm DCJTB layer has a luminance of 1130 cd/m 2 at 20 mA/cm 2 with an EL efficiency of 5.6 cd/A, and the CIE coordinates was [0.617, 0.379]. The maximum brightness of this device reaches 21,525 cd/m 2.
