Highly Efficient Organic Light-Emitting Diodes Based on Naphthoanthracene Derivatives Containing Different Arylamines

: Herein, we designed and synthesized emitting materials based on naphthoanthracene with the different arylamino-substituents. Organic Light Emitting-Diodes (OLEDs) devices using these materials were fabricated in the following sequence; ITO/N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-(2-napthyl)-(1,1'-phenyl)-4,4'- diamine (NPB) (500 A)/Emitters (400 A)/Alumium quinolate (Alq₃) (150 A)/lithium quinolate (Liq) (20 A)/Al (1000 A). All devices showed efficient emissions. In particular, a device using 4-((5,5-dimethyl-9-phenyl-5H-naphtho[3,2,1-de]anthracen-3-yl)(phenyl)amino)benzonitrile as an emitter exhibited the luminous efficiency, power efficiency, and external quantum efficiency of 9.15 cd/A, 6.36 lm/W, 2.72% at 20 mA/cm², respectively, with the Commission Internationale d'Enclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.30, 0.62) at 6.0 V.
