Enhance efficiency of blue and white organic light emitting diodes with mixed host emitting layer using TCTA and 3TPYMB

Abstract

A mixed host emitting layer consisting of TCTA and 3TPYMB can greatly increase the efficiency of blue and white organic light emitting diodes (OLED). The hole transport material TCTA can be used as a buffer layer and a hole-transport host emitting layer. Combining TCTA with electron-transport 3TPYMB produces a mixed host emitting layer that can effectively confine the charge carrier within luminous layer. The electron transport layer 3TPYMB reduces electronic injection energy barriers, improves charge balance, and reduces drive voltage to 4.38 V with proper adjustment to optimum thickness. The luminous efficiency of blue light OLED mixed with FIrpic can reach 36.0 cd/A, 27.5 lm/W, and luminous efficiency of white light OLED mixed with Os tangerine adulterant can reach 36.1 cd/A, 26.4 lm/W.
