Photophysics of Pt-porphyrin electrophosphorescent devices emitting in the near infrared

摘要

The triplet annihilation dynamics of near infrared organic light-emitting devices are studied with peak electrophosphorescence at a wavelength of 772 nm using a platinum-porphyrin derivative Pt(Ⅱ)-tetraphenyltetrabenzoporphyrin as dopant. Both the photoluminescent decay transients of the thin films and the quantum efficiency versus current density characteristics of devices using tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum or 4,4'-bis(N-carbazolyl)biphenyl (CBP) as hosts are fitted by a model based on triplet-triplet annihilation. When the phosphor is codoped with Ir(Ⅲ) bis(2-phenyl quinolyl-N,C~(2')) acetylacetonate in CBP, the quantum efficiency is enhanced, and the observed decrease of efficiency at high current densities is explained by field-induced charge pair dissociation. The external quantum efficiency has a maximum of (8.5 ± 0.3)%, decreasing to (5.0±0.3)% at 1 mA/cm~2.
