Bright White Organic Light-emitting Device Based on 1,2,3,4,5,6-Hexakis（9,9-diethyl-9H-fluoren-2-yl）benzene

Organic light-emitting devices（OLEDs） with the structure of indium-tin-oxide（ITO）/N,N＇-bis-（1-naphthyl）-N,N＇-diphenyl-（1,1＇-biphenyl）-4,4＇-diamine（NPB）/2,9-dimenthyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline（BCP）/tris（8-hydroxyquinoline）aluminum（Alq3）/Mg：Ag or that of ITO/NPB/1,2,3,4,5,6-hexakis（9,9-diethyl-9H-fluoren-2-yl）benzene（HKEthFLYPh）/Alq3/Mg：Ag were studied.White light emission was achieved with the two devices when the thicknesses of BCP and HKEthFLYPh were 1.5 nm（device B） and 5 nm（device Ⅱ）,respectively.The obvious difference was that the EL spectrum of device Ⅱ was not sensitive to the thickness of HKEthFLYPh compared to that of BCP layer.Moreover,the maximum luminance of device Ⅱ was about 1000 cd/m^2 higher than that of device B at a forward bias of 15 V,and it exhibited a maximum power efficiency of 1.0 lm/W at 5.5 V,which is nearly twice that of device B.The performance of device Ⅱ using a novel star-shaped hexafluorenylbenzene organic material was improved compared with that of BCP.
