General Approach To Compute Phosphorescent OLED Efficiency
英文摘要：
Phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PhOLEDs) are widely used in the display industry. In PhOLEDs, cyclometalated Ir(III) complexes are the most widespread triplet emitter dopants to attain red, e.g., Ir(piq)3 (piq = 1-phenylisoquinoline), and green, e.g., Ir(ppy)3 (ppy = 2-phenylpyridine), emissions, whereas obtaining operative deep-blue emitters is still one of the major challenges. When designing new emitters, two main characteristics besides colors should be targeted: high photostability and large photoluminescence efficiencies. To date, these are very often optimized experimentally in a trial-and-error manner. Instead, accurate predictive tools would be highly desirable. In this contribution, we present a general approach for computing the photoluminescence lifetimes and efficiencies of Ir(III) complexes by considering all possible competing excited-state deactivation processes and importantly explicitly including the strongly temperature-dependent ones. This approach is based on the combination of state-of-the-art quantum chemical calculations and excited-state decay rate formalism with kinetic modeling, which is shown to be an efficient and reliable approach for a broad palette of Ir(III) complexes, i.e., from yellow/orange to deep-blue emitters.
