Three yellow-green phosphorescent cationic iridium(III) complexes[(CBT)2Ir(phen)]PF6,[(CBT)2Ir(BCP)]PF6and[(CBT)2Ir(o-phen)]PF6were synthesized (phen: 1,10-phenanthroline,BCP: bathocuproine,o-phen: 2-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-5-(4-(1-ethyl-H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthrolin-2-yl)phenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole,CBT: 2-(9-(2-ethylhexyl)-9H-carbazol-3-yl)benzo[d]thiazole). All of them were successfully applied in polymer light-emitting diodes: ITO/PEDOT: PSS (40 nm)/PVK: PBD: complex (mass ratios 100: 40:x,x= 1.0, 3.0, and 5.0) (80 nm)/CsF (1.5 nm)/Al (100 nm). The maximum luminances were 8733 cd m−2, 8878 cd m−2and 13019 cd m−2, the maximum luminance efficiencies were 13.7 cd A−1, 12.5 cd A−1and 17.5 cd A−1respectively. Because the steric hindrance of two methyls increase the distance between central Ir3+andBCP,and the conjugated plane of 1,10-phenanthroline unit inBCPare distorted by two benzene rings, the flow of electrons are partly hindered,[(CBT)2Ir(BCP)]PF6exhibits the lowest electroluminescent performances. Due to the electron-transporting functional group 2,5-diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole and hole-transporting functional group carbazole providing good bipolar property,[(CBT)2Ir(o-phen)]PF6exhibits the best electroluminescent performances.
