Abstract

Two new platinum(II) porphyrins have been synthesized and their luminescent properties have been studied. The platinum porphyrins exhibited strong phosphorescence in the red with narrow line widths. When they were doped into aluminum(III) tris(8-hydroxyquinolate) (AlQ3) in the electron-transporting and -emitting layer of an organic light-emitting device, energy transfer occurred between the host AlQ3 and the platinum porphyrin. Bright saturated red emission with high efficiency at low to moderate current density has been achieved. In the high current regime, the electroluminescence efficiency decreased and the perceived emission color blue shifted as a result of mixed emission from the platinum porphyrin and AlQ3. This current dependence was due to the saturation of triplet emissive sites, because of the long-lived phosphorescence state of the platinum porphyrin complex.
