Solution-processed polymer organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) doped with triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA)-upconversion molecules, including 9,10-diphenylanthracene, perylene, rubrene and TIPS-pentacene, are reported. The fraction of triplet-generated electroluminescence approaches the theoretical limit. Record-high efficiencies in solution-processed OLEDs based on these materials are achieved. Unprecedented solid-state TTA-upconversion quantum yield of 23% (TTA-upconversion reaction efficiency of 70%) at electrical excitation well below one-sun equivalent is observed.
报道了掺杂三重态-三重态湮灭(TTA)上转换分子的溶液处理聚合物有机发光二极管(OLED),包括 9,10-二苯基蒽、苝、并五苯和 TIPS-五苯。三重态产生的电致发光的分数接近理论极限。基于这些材料的溶液处理 OLED 实现了创纪录的高效率。在远低于 1 个太阳等效的电激发下,观察到前所未有的固态 TTA 上转换量子产率为 23%(TTA 上转换反应效率为 70%)。
