In this study, two series of deep-blue-emitting homoleptic iridium(III) phosphors were synthesized using a different strategy to achieve high yields. The phosphors were examined through various spectroscopic and structural analysis methods, revealing their potential as deep-blue emitters for OLEDs. OLED devices based on these phosphors showed promising external quantum efficiencies and emission characteristics.
In this report, we synthesized two series of deep-blue-emitting homoleptic iridium(III) phosphors bearing 1,2,4-triazol-3-ylidene and 5-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,4-triazol-3-ylidene cyclometalate. Compared with reported synthetic routes using Ag2O as the promoter, herein, we adopted a different strategy to furnish these complexes in high yields. Also, the meridional to facial isomerization was executed in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid. These phosphors were examined using NMR spectroscopies, single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies, and photophysical methods. The results revealed that electron-withdrawing trifluoromethyl substitution on the N-heterocyclic carbene fragment only gave a minor variation of photoluminescence peak wavelengths and a decrease in radiative lifetime but notable reduction in thermal stabilities. The parent 1,2,4-triazol-3-ylidene complexes have been demonstrated to be suitable for use as deep-blue phosphors, with structured emission with the peak max. located at similar to 420 nm and with photoluminescence quantum yields in a range of 34.8-42.5% in degassed THE solution at RT. Fabrication of both the phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and phosphor-sensitized OLEDs (or hyperphosphorescence) was successfully conducted, from which the OLED device based on m-tz1 showed a max. external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 10% with CIEx,y coordinates of 0.15, 0.06, while the corresponding hyperphosphorescent OLED using m-tz2 as a sensitizer and t-DABNA as a terminal emitter afforded a significantly improved max. EQE of 19.7%, EL lambda(max) of 468 nm, and FWHM of 31 nm with CIEx,y coordinates of 0.12, 0.13.
