The characteristics of the electroluminescent devices using Ir$(ppy)_3$

Ir$(ppy)_3$를 발광물질로 이용한 EL소자의 특성분석

The internal quantum efficiency of EL devices using fluorescent organic materials is limited within 25% because of the triplet excitons which can hardly emit light. So there has been considerable interest in finding ways to obtain light emission from triplet excitons. One approach has been to add phosphorescent compounds to one of the layers in an EL device. Then triplet excitons can transfer to these phosphorescent molecules and emit light. In this study, multilayer organic light-emitting devices with phosphorescent emitter, tris (2-phenylpyridine)iridium ($Ir(ppy)_3$) were prepared. The device exhibited power luminous efficiency of 1.07 1m/W at the luminance of $61.6\;cd/m^2$ diriven at the voltage of 9 V and current density of $1.9mA/cm^2$. At the luminance of $100\;cd/m^2$, the luminous efficiency was obtained 1.05 lm/W with the voltage of 9.5 V and the corrent density of $2.8\;mA/cm^2$.
