摘要: We demonstrate high-efficiency white organic light emitting devices (WOLEDs) employing three adjacent phosphorescent emission layers (3-EMLs). The metal-organic dopants for red, green, and blue emissions are each doped in separate hosts, allowing optimization of the dopant-host material combinations. This structure distributes exciton generation region across hosts to form a stepped progression highest occupied lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals. 3-EML WOLED has color rendering index 81 peak forward-viewing external quantum (EQE) power efficiencies (PE) (16.6±0.8)% 32±1lm∕W, respectively, corresponding total EQE=(28±1)% PE=54±3lm∕W. When an n-doped electron transporting layer is used, PE peaks at 64±3lm∕W, rolls off 34±2lm∕W 1000cd∕m2.
