Organic light emitting diodes(OLEDs) are widely used as one of the information display techniques. We synthesized (1,10-phenanthroline)- (8-hydroxyquinoline) [Zn(Phen)q]. We studied the improvement of OLEDs properties using Zn(phen)q. The Ionization Potential(IP) and the Electron Affinity(EA) of Zn(phen)q investigated using cyclic voltammetry(CV). The IP, EA and Eg were 7.leV, 3.4eV and 3.7eV, respectively. The PL spectrum of Zn(phen)q was yellowish green as the wavelength of 535nm. In this study, we used Zn(phen)q as electron transporting layer(ETL) inserted between emitting layer(EML) and cathode. As a result, Zn(phen)q is useful as electron transporting layer to enhance the performance of OLEDs.

A novel zinc complex, Zn(phen)q, was synthesized from 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) and 8-hydroxyquinoline (q) as organic ligands and its electroluminescent (EL) properties were characterized. The structure of Zn(phen)q was elucidated by FT-IR, UV-Vis and XPS. The complex Zn(phen)q showed thermal stability up to $300^{\circ}C$ under nitrogen flow, which was measured by TGA and DSC. The photoluminescence (PL) of the Zn(phen)q was measured from the THF solution and the solid film on quartz substrate. The PL emission of Zn(phen)q exhibited green light centered at about 505nm. The EL devices were fabricated by the vacuum deposition. The EL devices having the structure of ITO/a-NPD/Zn(phen)q/Li:Al were studied, where 4,4'-bis[N-(1-naphthyl)-N-phenylamino]biphenyl(a-NPD) used as a hole transport layer(HTL). a-NPD has high Tg of $96^{\circ}C$ and thus makes the device thermally stable. The EL emission of Zn(phen)q exhibited also green light centered at 532nm.

We synthesized new electroluminescence materials [(1,10-phenanthroline)(8-hydroxyquinoline)] Zn(phen)q and investigated their electron transport properties. We used Zn(phen)q and $Alq_3$ for the conductive materials and measured their electron transport properties as a function of the organic layer thickness. The difference between Zn(phen)q and $Alq_3$ as electron transporting materials suggests that the electrical properties depends on the carrier injection.

We have synthesized electroluminescence materials. including [2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole] (Zn(HPB)$_2$), [(2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole)(8-hydoxyquinoline)] (Zn(HPB)q) and [(1, 10-phenanthroline)(8-hydroxyquinoline)] Zn(phen)q. The ionization potential (IP) and electron affinity (EA) of each Zn-complex was measured using cyclic-voltammetry (C-V). Basing on the consideration of matched in the energy levels of the materials. We investigated the electron transporting properties of Zn(HPB)q and Zn(phen)q compared with $Alq_3$, and also we investigated the hole blocking properties of Zn(HPB)$_2$, compared with BCP. As a result, we used Zn-complex to enhance the performance of OLED. Therefore, we demonstrate that Zn(HPB)q and Zn(phen)q are useful as an electron transporting material. Zn(HPB)$_2$ is also good a hole blocking material.

Recently, high luminance and high efficiency were realized in OLEDs with multilayer structure including emitting materials such as metal-chelate complexes. New luminescent materials, [2- (2-hydroxyphenyl)-quinoline] (Zn(HPB)q), [(1,10-phenanthroline)- (8-hydroxyquinoline)] Zn(Phen)q was synthesized. Zn-Complexes have low molecular compound and thermal stability. The ionization potential(IP) and electron affinity(EA) of Zn-complexes were measured by cyclic-voltammetry(CV). The fundamental structure of the OLEDs was $ITO/{\alpha}$-NPD/Zn-Complex/Al and then we made device structure rightly in energy band gap. We using Zn(Phen)q as emitting layer and Zn(HPB)q as electron transport layer. We measured current density-voltage, luminance-voltage characteristics.
