Enhancement of Phosphorescence from Organic Fluorescent Materials $Bebq_2$ and $Alq_3$ by Sensitization

Monomer and aggregate of $Bebq_2$ give fluorescence at 492 and 511 nm at 12 K, respectively. Intense T1 emission with vibronic structure was observed from $Bebq_2$ and $Alq_3$ below 70 K by heavily doping with phosphorescent $Ir(ppy)_3$. Energy transfer from $Ir(ppy)_3$ was clarified by photoluminescence excitation spectra.
