چکیده

A new heteroleptic iridium complex demonstrated low cytotoxicity and near-infrared excitation (via two-photon absorption) for target-specific in vitro Golgi imaging in various cell lines (HeLa and A549 cells) with two-photon absorption cross section (~350 GM) in DMSO.

Phosphorescent Organic Light-Emitting Devices: Working Principle and Iridium Based Emitter Materials

Even though organic light-emitting device (OLED) technology has evolved to a point where it is now an important competitor to liquid crystal displays (LCDs), further scientific efforts devoted to the design, engineering and fabrication of OLEDs are required for complete commercialization of this technology. Along these lines, the present work reviews the essentials of OLED technology putting sp...

Tuning the electronic and photophysical properties of heteroleptic iridium(III) phosphorescent emitters through ancillary ligand substitution: a theoretical perspective.

The development and application of phosphorescent emitters in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have played a critical role in the push to commercialization of OLED-based display and lighting technologies. Here, we use density functional theory methods to study how modifying the ancillary ligand influences the electronic and photophysical properties of heteroleptic bis(4,6-difluorophenyl) p...

The effect of substituted 1,2,4-triazole moiety on the emission, phosphorescent properties of the blue emitting heteroleptic iridium(III) complexes and the OLED performance: a theoretical study.

A series of neutral heteroleptic mononuclear iridium(III) complexes was investigated using the density functional theory/time-dependent density functional theory approach to determine the effect of the substituted 1,2,4-triazole moiety on the electronic structures, emission, and phosphorescent properties and the organic light emitting diode (OLED) performance. The results reveal that substituti...

Novel, highly efficient blue-emitting heteroleptic iridium(III) complexes based on fluorinated 1,3,4-oxadiazole: tuning to blue by dithiolate ancillary ligands.

Novel blue-emitting phosphorescent iridium(III) complexes with fluorinated 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives as cyclometalated ligands and dithiolates as ancillary ligands have been synthesized and fully characterized; highly efficient OLEDs have been achieved using these complexes in the light-blue to blue-emitting region.
