Abstract

Light-Emitting Electrochemical Cells (LECs) with a simple device structure ITO/Ru complex/Ga: In were prepared by using heteroleptic ruthenium(II) complexes containing 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1(4-bromophenyl)-1h-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10] phenanthroline (hpbpip) as the pi-extended ligand. After ancillary ligand modification, the Ru(hpbpip)(dmbpy)(2)(2) complex shows a deep red electro-luminescence emission (2250 cd m(-2) at 6 V) centered at 685 nm, 65 nm red-shifted compared to the Ru(bpy)(3)(2) benchmark red-emitter at a very low turn voltage (2.6 V), demonstrating its potential for low-cost deep-red light sources. Moreover, the PL quantum yield of the Ru(hpbpip)(bpy)(2)(2) complex was revealed to be higher (0.121) than the benchmark standard Ru(bpy)(3) (0.095).

OLED

An organic light-emitting diode (OLED), also known as organic electroluminescent (organic EL) diode, is a light-emitting diode (LED) in which the emissive electroluminescent layer is a film of organic compound that emits light in response to an electric current. This organic layer is situated between two electrodes; typically, at least one of these electrodes is transparent. OLEDs are used to create digital displays in devices such as television screens, computer monitors, and portable systems such as smartphones and handheld game consoles.

Quantum dot

Quantum dots (QDs) – also called semiconductor nanocrystals, are semiconductor particles a few nanometres in size, having optical and electronic properties that differ from those of larger particles as a result of quantum mechanics. They are a central topic in nanotechnology and materials science. When the quantum dots are illuminated by UV light, an electron in the quantum dot can be excited to a state of higher energy. In the case of a semiconducting quantum dot, this process corresponds to the transition of an electron from the valence band to the conductance band.

Ligand

In coordination chemistry, a ligand is an ion or molecule with a functional group that binds to a central metal atom to form a coordination complex. The bonding with the metal generally involves formal donation of one or more of the ligand's electron pairs, often through Lewis bases. The nature of metal–ligand bonding can range from covalent to ionic. Furthermore, the metal–ligand bond order can range from one to three. Ligands are viewed as Lewis bases, although rare cases are known to involve Lewis acidic "ligands".
