Abstract

We report low voltage driving and highly efficient blue phosphorescence organic light emitting diodes (PHOLEDs) fabricated by soluble process. A soluble small molecule mixed host system consisting of hole transporting 4,4',4'' tris(N-carbazolyl)triphenylamine (TCTA) and bipolar carrier transporting 2,6-bis(3-(carbazol-9-yl)phenyl)pyridine (26DCzPPy) exhibits high solubility with smooth surface properties. Moreover, this small molecule host shows the smoothest morphological property similar to a vacuum deposited amorphous film. A low driving voltage of 5.4 V at 1000 cd/m2 and maximum external quantum efficiency 14.6% obtained in the solution processed blue PHOLEDs are useful for large area low cost manufacturing.
