Synthesis and Characterization of New Phosphorescent Heteroleptic Iridium (III) Complex by Using Tetrazole as an Ancillary Ligand for Organic Light-Emitting Diodes
The yellow emitting tetrazole based heteroleptic iridium(III) complex, bis(diphenylquinoline)iridium(pyridyltetrazole) [(DPQ)(2)Ir(PyTz)], was synthesized and conformed by H-1-,C-13 NMR spectral techniques. The purity was also confirmed by HPLC. The thermal, electrochemical, photophysical and electroluminescent properties were intrinsically investigated. The Ir(III) complex is thermally more stable having thermal decomposition temperature (T-d, 5% weight loss) more than 350 degrees C and it shows very high glass transition temperature T-g-233 degrees C. We have followed the easy and cost effective solution process for (DPQ)(2)Ir(PyTz) device fabrication and achieved better performance yellow phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PhOLEDs), maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 5.68%, luminance efficiency 12.63 cd/A, and CIE coordinate of (0.56, 0.43).
