Abstract

In this study, solution-processable carbazole-type host materials, 1,3-bis(3-(3,6-di-n-butylcarbazol-9-yl)phenyl)benzene (BCzPPh) and 4,6-bis(3-(3,6-di-n-butylcarbazol-9-yl)phenyl)pyrimidine (BCzPPm), were synthesized for use in phosphorescent organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs). Both host materials possess a high solubility in common organic solvents and high triplet energy to confine excitons to the phosphorescent emitter. The two nitrogen atoms in the central pyrimidine ring of BCzPPm have a profound effect on the photoluminescence properties and the electron-accepting capability. When doped with the green phosphorescent emitter tris(2-(4-tolyl)phenylpyridine)iridium (III), BCzPPh exhibited power efficiencies and external quantum efficiencies above 30lm/W and 13%, respectively, in a simple bilayer OLED.
