Abstract

The organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) based on fluorescence have low efficiencies due to the requirement of spin-symmetry conservation. By using the phosphorescent material, the internal quantum efficiency can reach 100 %, compared to 25 % in the case of the fluorescent material. Thus, the phosphorescent OLEDs have recently been extensively studied and showed higher internal quantum efficiencies then the conventional OLEDs. In this study, we investigated the characteristics of the phosphorescent OLEDs, with the green emitting phosphor, Ir(ppy)$_3$ (tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium). The devices with a structure of ITO/TPD/Ir(PPy)$_3$ doped in the host material/BCP/Alq$_3$/Li:Al/Al were fabricated, and its electrical and optical characteristics were studied. By changing the doping concentration of Ir(PPy)$_3$ and the host materials, we fabricated several devices and investigated the device characteristics.
