초록

Organic electroluminescent devices (OELDs) have received a great deal of attention due to their potential application as full-color displays. Europium complexes are known as excellent red light-emitting materials for OELDs since they show intense photoluminescence at around 612 nm with a narrow spectral bandwidth. In this study, a novel europium complex, $Eu(TTA)_3(TPPO)$ was synthesized and its photoluminescent and electroluminescent characteristics were investigated with a device structure of ITO/TPD/$Eu(TTA)_3(TPPO)$/ $Alq_3$/Al, where sharp emission at the wavelength of 615 nm has been observed. Details on the electrical properties of these structures was also discussed.
