A novel perfluorinated heteroleptic iridium complex, namely iridium(III)bis[2-(2,5,2?,3?,4?,5?,6?-heptafluoro-biphenyl-4-yl)-pyridinato-N,C2?][3-(pentafluorophenyl)-pyridin-2-yl-1,2,4-triazolate] (Ir-F19), has been synthesized and characterized both in solution and in the solid state. The compound displays blue-green photoluminescence, with emission peaks at 480 and 512 nm and 68% quantum yield, in degassed acetonitrile solution. The use of this phosphor in blue and white organic light emitting devices (WOLEDs) has been investigated. Current efficiency of 8.3 cd/A at 100 cd/m has been recorded for the blue emitting device whereas white electroluminescence with good color rendering index (CRI = 76) and CIE coordinates (0.43, 0.42) have been observed for a WOLED made of two stacked layers based on Ir-F19 and the commercial orange Ir(MDQ)(acac) [bis(2-methyldibenzo[f,h]quinoxaline)(acetylacetonate)iridium(III)]. WOLED luminous efficiency of 10.5 cd/A at 100 cd/m, almost constant (10.1 cd/A) up to 1000 cd/m, indicates that Ir-F19 is a promising blue-green emitting component for white electroluminescence.

Abstract
A novel perfluorinated heteroleptic iridium complex, namely iridium(III)bis[2-(2,5,2?,3?,4?,5?,6?-heptafluoro-biphenyl-4-yl)-pyridinato-N,C2?][3-(pentafluorophenyl)-pyridin-2-yl-1,2,4-triazolate] (Ir-F19), has been synthesized and characterized both in solution and in the solid state. The compound displays blue-green photoluminescence, with emission peaks at 480 and 512 nm and 68% quantum yield, in degassed acetonitrile solution. The use of this phosphor in blue and white organic light emitting devices (WOLEDs) has been investigated. Current efficiency of 8.3 cd/A at 100 cd/m has been recorded for the blue emitting device whereas white electroluminescence with good color rendering index (CRI = 76) and CIE coordinates (0.43, 0.42) have been observed for a WOLED made of two stacked layers based on Ir-F19 and the commercial orange Ir(MDQ)(acac) [bis(2-methyldibenzo[f,h]quinoxaline)(acetylacetonate)iridium(III)]. WOLED luminous efficiency of 10.5 cd/A at 100 cd/m, almost constant (10.1 cd/A) up to 1000 cd/m, indicates that Ir-F19 is a promising blue-green emitting component for white electroluminescence.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
