Abstract

Achieving high efficiencies in simple device configurations is a long-standing and meaningful target for organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs). Herein, by utilizing an efficient blue-violet fluorophor (CzS1) that has a high triplet energy of 2.62 eV, the significance of effective confinement of the green triplets in fluorescence/phosphorescence hybrid white devices (F/P-WOLEDs) that have highly simplified emission layers (EMLs) containing only RGB emitters was demonstrated. The non-p-i-n warm-white device exhibited excellent performance with a maximum forward power efficiency high up to 42.1 lm W(-1), and maintaining at 26.3 lm W(1-) at a practical luminance of 1000 cd m(-2).
