Abstract
Two Schiff base mixed ligand 4-[(N(2-hydroxy-1-naphthalidene)amino)antipyrine]zinc and 1,10 phenanthroline mixed ligand Schiff base zinc complexes were synthesized and characterized using 1H and 13C NMR, mass spectroscopy, elemental analysis, IR and UV–vis spectra. The thermal stability of compounds was characterized by TGA and its glass transition temperature was determined by the DSC method. Photoluminescence spectra show the emission peaks of both complexes lie in the 450–550 nm blue-green region. These two zinc complexes were used as a dopant material for mixed host materials with a concentration of 8 %. A series of devices having mixed host materials (mCPx:TPBI1-x) with the concentration of x = 0,1/4,1/2 and 3/4 have been developed. The concentration of both host materials was equal. The maximum luminance, current and power efficiency of the devices with zinc complex Zn(L) can reach up to 5516 cd/m2, 4.4 cd/A and 3.52 lm/W which are improved by introducing phenanthroline mixed ligand in the zinc complex Zn(phen). These results show that by changing the concentration of host material and introducing mixed ligand in the zinc complex can broaden the recombination zone and also balance the charge carrier in the emissive layer.
期刊介绍:
Optical Materials has an open access mirror journal Optical Materials: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.
The purpose of Optical Materials is to provide a means of communication and technology transfer between researchers who are interested in materials for potential device applications. The journal publishes original papers and review articles on the design, synthesis, characterisation and applications of optical materials.
OPTICAL MATERIALS focuses on:
• Optical Properties of Material Systems;
• The Materials Aspects of Optical Phenomena;
• The Materials Aspects of Devices and Applications.
Authors can submit separate research elements describing their data to Data in Brief and methods to Methods X.
