The effect of the phosphor doping concentration on the optoelectronic characteristics of white phosphorescence organic light emitting diodes (PHOLEDs) was studied. A high efficiency white PHOLED was achieved using the unique efficiency properties of the red-emitting Osmium complex ([fptz = 3-trifluoromethyl-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole, PPh2Me = phosphineligand]; Os(fptz)(2)(PPh2Me)(2)) combined with a well known efficient blue-emitting Iridium complex (bis[(4,6-difluorophenyl)-pyridinate-N,C2'; FIrpic]). The results demonstrate that with 2 wt% Os(fptz)(2)(PPh2Me)(2) co-doped into the blue-emitting layer (10 wt% FIrpic doped into the host), the device can achieve a luminance efficiency of up to 40.4 cd/A (25.6 lm/W) with a good corresponding CIE coordinate (0.39, 0.40). The doping concentrations of the red-emitting and blue-emitting phosphors were adjusted to obtain a pure white light with a CIE coordinate of (0.368, 0.366). A high efficiency white PHOLED was achieved by optimizing the doping concentration of the red-emitting and blue-emitting complexes. (C) 2011 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
