Fluorescent white organic light-emitting diodes showing high color-rendering indices (CRIs) of up to 81 was demonstrated, with a silicon-cored anthracene derivative (PATSPA) doped with DPAVBi utilized as the deep-blue host and dye materials, and the commercial dyes rubrene and DCM2 utilized as the orange- and red-light-emitting dyes. The devices, consisting of three emissive layers, showed bright-white-light emission, but the ratio of the blue peak to the orange and red peaks changed with the current density and the thickness of the blue emissive layer. A high CRI was achieved with the use of a deep-blue emitter doped in a novel host and by optimizing the blue-layer thickness. The device with a blue-layer thickness of 10 nm showed the Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage (CIE) color coordinate of (0.33, 0.35), a high CRI of 81, and a moderate external quantum efficiency of 2% at a current density of $2.5\;mA/cm^2$.

We investigated the light-emitting performances of blue phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes, known as PHOLEDs, by incorporating an N,N'-dicarbazolyl-3,5-benzen interlayer between the hole transporting layer and emitting layer (EML). We found that the effects of the introduced interlayer for triplet exciton confinement and hole/electron balance in the EML were exceptionally dependent on the host materials: 9-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-3,6-bis(triphenylsilyl)-9H-carbazole, 9-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-3,6-ditrityl-9H-carbazole, and 4,4'-bis-triphenylsilanyl-biphenyl. When an appropriate interlayer and host material were combined, the peak external quantum efficiency was greatly enhanced by over 21 times from 0.79% to 17.1%. Studies on the recombination zone using a series of host materials were also conducted.

We report a new series of blue dopants composed of both electron donating and electron accepting moieties in one molecule, based on nalidixic acid. The EL device derived from the dopant exhibits pure blue light emission (0.15, 0.14) The current efficiency is estimated to be 3.88 cd/A at 100 $cd/m^2$, which shows remarkable enhancement, compared to that of the host itself (2.5 cd/A at 100 $cd/m^2$) under the same conditions. These results demonstrate that the incorporation of a proper guest into the host in a guest-host doped system improves not only the purity of the fluorescent blue emission but also elevates its quantum efficiency, thus improving the OLED performance.

New spiro[fluorene-7,9′-benzofluorene]-based blue host material, 5-phenyl-spiro[fluorene-7,9′-benzofluorene] (BH-1P), was successfully prepared by reacting 5-bromo-spiro[fluorene-7,9′-benzofluorene] (1) with phenyl boronic acid through the Suzuki reaction. 5-(N,N-Diphenyl)amino-spiro[fluorene-7,9′-benzofluorene] (BH-1DPA) and diphenyl-[4-(2-[1,1;4,1]terphenyl-4-yl-vinyl)-phenyl]amine (BD-1) were used as dopant materials. 2,5-Bis-(2',2"- bipyridin-6-yl)-1,1-diphenyl-3,4-diphenylsilacyclopentadiene (ET4) and Alq3 were used as electron transfer materials. Their UV absorption, photoluminescence and thermal properties were examined. The blue OLEDs with the configuration of ITO/DNTPD/$\alpha$-NPD/BH-1P:5% dopant/$Alq_3$ or ET4/LiF-Al prepared from the BH-1P host and BH-1DPA and BD-1 dopants showed a blue EL spectrum at 452 nm at 10 V and a luminance of 923.9 cd/$m^2$ with an efficiency of 1.27 lm/W at a current density of 72.57 mA/$cm^2$.

The blue emitting OLEDs using TMP-BiP[(4'-Benzoylferphenyl-4-yl)phenyl-methanone-Diethyl(biphenyl-4-ymethyl) phosphonate] host and DJNBD-1 dopant have been fabricated and characterized. In the device fabrication, 2-TNATA [4,4',4"-tris(2-naphthylphenyl-phenylamino)-triphenylamine] as a hole injection material and NPB [N,N'-bis(1-naphthyl)N,N'-diphenyl-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine] as a hole transport material were deposited on the ITO(indium tin oxide)/glass substrate by vacuum thermal evaporation method. Followed by the deposition, blue color emission layer was deposited using TMP-BiP as a host material and DJNBD-1 as a dopant. Finally, small molecule OLEDs with structure of $ITO/2-TNATA/NPB/TMP-BiP:DJNBD-l/Alq_3/LiF/Al$ were obtained by in-situ deposition of $Alq_3$, LiF and Al as the electron transport material, electron injection material and cathode, respectively. The effect of dopant into host material of the blue OLEDs was studied. The blue OLEDs with DJNBD-1 dopant showed that the maximum current and luminance were found to be about 34 mA and $8110\;cd/m^2$ at 11 V, respectively. In addition, the color coordinate was x=0.17, y=0.17 in CIE color chart, and the peak emission wavelength was 440 nm. The maximum current efficiency of 2.15 cd/A at 7 V was obtained in this experiment.

A mixed host structure of TCTA and TPBI was used in orange emitting layer and host composition was critical to device performances of PHWOLEDs. PHWOLEDs with TPBI host in orange emitting layer showed high quantum efficiency of 10.3 % at $1000\;cd/m^2$ with little change of CIE coordinates of (0.32, 0.34) from $100\;cd/m^2$ to $10,000\;cd/m^2$.

We have developed a top-emitting white organic electroluminescent device (TWOLED) incorporating a low-reflectivity molybdenum (Mo) anode and doped transport layers as well as a dual-layer architecture of doped blue and yellow emitters with the same blue host. The EL efficiency and operational lifetime of TWOLED can be enhanced by a factor of 1.2 and 3.4 than that of standard TWOLED, respectively, with a co-doping technology in yellow emitter by doping another blue dopant. The enhancement in device performances can be attributed to improve the energy transfer efficiency from blue host to yellow dopant through a blue dopant as medium in yellow emitter.

In this study, Tri(1-phenylpyrazolato)iridium $(Ir(ppz)_3)$ was prepared for the pure blue phosphorescent dopant and various host materials were used for the appropriate energy alignment. Although the luminance was pure blue with the CIE coordinates of x = 0.158, y = 0.139, device efficiencies didn't improve yet. Instead of finding the proper host materials, the alteration of structure of OLEDs affected the improvement of electrical and optical characteristics of the devices. It was worthy that insertion the exciton formation zone with the host material between the emitting zone and the exciton blocking layer. The device with a structure of ITO/NPB/Ir(ppz)3 doped in CBP/CBP for the exciton formation zone/BCP/Liq/Al was fabricated and the characteristics were observed compared with the devices without the exciton formation zone. When CBP was used for the exciton formation zone, the device efficiency reached to over 0.25 cd/A. While the device used CBP only for the host showed the luminous efficiency of under 0.11 cd/A

A novel spiro-type host material, 5-[4-(1-naphthyl)phenyl]-spiro[fluorene-7,9'-benzofluorene] (BH-1PN) and three new dopants, namely, 5-[diphenylamino)phenyl]-spiro[fluorene-7,9'-benzofluorene] (BH-1TPA), 5-[4-(N-phenyl (m-tolyl)amino]-spiro[fluorene-7,9'-benzofluorene] (BH-1MDPA) and 5-[(N-phenyl)-2-naphthyl]amino-spiro[fluorene- 7,9'-benzofluorene] (BH-1NPA) were designed and successfully prepared using the Suzuki or amination reactions. The electroluminescence characteristics of BH-1PN as a blue host material doped with each of the blue dopants were evaluated. The structure of the device is ITO/DNTPD/NPB/BH-1PN:5% dopant/Alq3/Al-LiF. The device obtained from BH-1PN doped with diphenyl-[4-(2-[1,1;4,1]terphenyl-4-yl-vinyl)phenyl]-amine (BD-1) showed good color purity, efficiency, luminance, and current-density characteristics.
