Synthesis and Electro-Optical Property of Green Fluorescent Emitter Based on Anthracene Core and Optimized Side Groups.

New green emitter is designed and synthesized by selecting anthracene having high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and diphenylamine side group substituted methyl and t-butyl group: ,-bis(5-(tert-butyl)-2-methylphenyl)-,-bis(2,4-dimethylphenyl)anthracene-9,10-diamine (3Me-1Bu-TPADA). Photophysical, electrochemical, and electroluminescent (EL) properties of 3Me-1Bu-TPADA were investigated. The maximum photoluminescence (PL) emission wavelengths of 3Me-1Bu-TPADA in solution and in a film were 528 nm and 531 nm, respectively. 3Me-1Bu-TPADA has excellent thermal properties with glass transition temperatures () of 110 °C, melting temperatures () of 217 °C of, and degradation temperature (Td) of 330 °C. 3Me-1Bu-TPADA was used as an emitting layer in non-doped devices: ITO/2-TNATA (60 nm)/NPB (15 nm)/3Me-1Bu-TPADA (30 nm)/Alq₃ (30 nm)/LiF (1 nm)/Al (200 nm). The 3Me-1Bu-TPADA device showed luminance efficiency of 6.05 cd/A, EQE of 2.68% at 10 mA/cm².
