Abstract
We report a high power efficiency (PE) of 44.7 ± 0.5 lm/W, high external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 19.7 ± 0.1% at 500 Cd/m^2^, and efficiency roll‐off of only 4% of the peak value at a useful brightness of 1000 Cd/m^2^ from orange‐red emitting, organic light emitting diodes featuring 1,1‐bis[(di‐4‐tolylamino)phenyl]cyclohexane (TAPC) as the hole transport layer/electron blocking layer, an emissive layer consisting of 65% bis[3,5‐bis(2‐pyridyl)‐1,2,4‐triazolato]platinum(II) (Pt(ptp)~2~) doped into 4,4′‐bis(carbazol‐9‐yl)triphenylamine (CBP), and 1,3,5‐tris(phenyl‐2‐benzimidazolyl)‐benzene (TPBI) as the electron transport layer (ETL). Based on a comparison of these structures with devices that did not incorporate an electron/exciton blocker and devices featuring N,N′‐dicarbazolyl‐3,5‐benzene (mCP) as the electron/exciton blocking layer, we ascribe the high efficiency and low efficiency roll‐off to better charge balance, and enhanced confinement of excitons and the recombination zone to the emissive layer.
