Abstract
In this talk, we will discuss recent innovations in organic light-emitting materials and devices. First, we will report on organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) based on thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF). We will show that devices based on the emitter 4CzIPN doped in a novel ambipolar host can yield a current efficacy of 81 cd/A and a maximum external quantum efficiency of 26.5%. These devices exhibit a low turn-on voltage of 3.2 V at 10 cd/m2, as well as reduced efficiency roll-off at high current densities. The performance of these devices is comparable to that of electrophosphorescent devices based on organic-metallic compounds that contain precious metals such as Iridium. In a second part we will report on highly efficient green-emitting organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) fabricated on shape memory polymer (SMP) substrates for flexible electronic applications. SMPs are a class of mechanically active materials that can change and store shape upon activation by a stimulus. The combination of the unique properties of SMP substrates with the light-emitting properties of OLEDs pave to the way for new applications, including conformable smart skin devices, minimally invasive biomedical devices, and flexible lighting/display technologies. Finally, we will present OLEDs fabricated on substrates made from cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) and discuss how such substrates can reduce the environmental footprint of printable organic electronics.
