Solution-Processed White Circularly Polarized Organic Light-Emitting Diodes Based on Chiral Binaphthyl Emitters.

By combining the blue and orange CPL or functionalized bis-benzoxanethones emitters (S-/R-BN-tCz and S-/R-BN-PXZ), warm white CP-OLEDs were fabricated using solution-processed single emitting layer strategy. The successful realization of white CP-EL benefited from the same stable binaphthyl chirality and similar rigid structure of the two emissive CPL emitters. The devices exhibited the low turn-on voltage of ≈4.3 V, maximum luminance of ≈10200 cd m and maximum current efficiency of ≈2.0 cd A . Most significantly, the devices with CIE coordinates of (0.32, 0.45) displayed intense CP-EL signals in the spectral range of 450 to 650 nm, and showed stable g values of ≈10 as the luminance increased from 100 to 6000 cd m . To the best of our knowledge, this work provides for the first time a simple and feasible strategy to fabricate solution-processed white CP-OLEDs based on the co-doping of the CPL emitters.
