摘要

Abstract

Numerous hybrid white organic light-emitting diodes (WOLEDs) have recently been developed. However

their efficiency is not comparable to that of their best all-phosphorescent WOLED counterparts

and the structures are usually complicated

restricting their further development. Herein

a novel concept is used to achieve a hybrid WOLED

whose crucial feature is the exploitation of double multifunctional blue emitting layers. The three-organic-layer WOLED exhibits a total efficiency of 89.3 and 65.1 lm W

–1

at 100 and 1000 cd m

–2

respectively

making it the most efficient hybrid WOLED reported in the literature so far. Significantly

the efficiencies of hybrid WOLEDs have

for the first time

been demonstrated to be comparable to those of the best all-phosphorescent WOLEDs. In addition

the device exhibits the lowest voltages among hybrid WOLEDs (i.e.

2.4

2.7 and 3.1 V for 1

100 and 1000 cd m

–2

respectively). Such remarkable performance achieved from such an ultrasimplified structure opens a new path toward low-cost commercialization.
