9-(10-phenylanthracen-9-yl)-Benzo[b]Fluoreno[3,4-d] Thiophene Derivatives for Blue Organic Light-Emitting Diodes.

In this study, two blue fluorescence materials using phenylanthracene-substituted fluorene derivatives were synthesized and characterized for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). To study their electroluminescent properties, OLED devices were fabricated using these two materials as emissive layer (EML). A device using 7,7-diphenyl-9-(10-phenylanthracen-9-yl)-7H-benzo[b]fluoreno[3,4-d]thiophene in emitting layer showed the highest value of EQE value which is 3.51%. It also showed the luminance efficiency of 3.22 cd/A and power efficiency of 2.89 lm/W with the CIE coordinates (0.15, 0.09).
