Abstract
A white organic light-emitting device (WOLED) obtained using blue and yellow complementary colors possesses extremely high optical efficiency. We designed and prepared a completely symmetric D-π-D type efficient blue light small molecule FFA based on octylfluorene as a π bridge, where the undoped device showed efficient blue organic light-emitting device (OLED) performance with a maximum emission wavelength of 428 nm, Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.17, 0.11) and one of the narrowest full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 35 nm. To improve the matching measure of complementary color materials for achieving white light emission, a yellow light small molecule FCzA was prepared by adjusting the conjugation degree of peripheral electron-donating groups based on the same fluorene-based π bridge with FFA. Undoped devices based on FCzA demonstrated an electroluminescence (EL) emission peak at 576 nm with CIE coordinates of (0.43, 0.49) and a relatively wide FWHM of 130 nm. Ultimately, the white OLED device was modulated with CIE coordinates located at (0.33, 0.38) via proportional regulation with a mixture of FFA and FCzA in a ratio of 10 : 3 as the light-emitting layer.
