Synthesis and Properties of New Imidazole Derivatives Including Various Chromophore for OLEDs
Two new blue compounds were successfully synthesized by introducing phenanthroimidazole group as a side group into pyrene, a chromophore with good luminous efficiency: 1-(4-(10-(naphthalen-2-yl)anthracen-9-yl)phenyl)-2-(pyren-1-yl)-1H-phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazole (NA-PPI) and 1-(4'-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl)-2-(pyren-1-yl)-1H-phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazole (CP-PPI). The optical and electroluminescence properties of newly synthesized materials were measured. Both materials emit blue or sky-blue photoluminescence in the film state and have a high PLQY value of over 80% in solution state. The synthesized materials were applied as EML in non-doped devices, and high efficiency of 3.51?cd/A and EQE of 2.39% in CP-PPI device were achieved.
