We have fabricated an air stable blue emitting organic electroluminescent devices (OLEDs) with a carbazole based emitting molecule, Bis(3-N-ethylcarbazolyl)terephthalidene (BECP). Our device emits strong blue at 472 nm with the luminance efficiency of near 1 lm/W at a voltage and current density of 8 V and 5.7 mA/cm2, respectively, reaching the brightness up to 5000 cd/m2 at 270 mA/cm2. Finally, in order to tune the emission color from blue to green, we have used Bis(3-N-ethylcarbazolyl)cynoterephthalidene (BECCP), a derivative of BECP by adding cyno group in side chain, and compared the electroluminscence (EL) of OLEDS prepared by BECCP to that of BECP based OLEDs.
