Abstract

We synthesized new blue and bluish green emitting materials by using fully substituted ethylene moieties. Multi-layered EL devices were fabricated with synthesized materials and evaluated in terms of emission color and luminescence efficiency. BPBAPE[EML 4] having high $T_g$ of $155^{\circ}C$ showed luminance and power efficiency of 10.33cd/A and 4.0 lm/W without any doping agent. BTBPPA[EML 5] exhibited 5cd/A and 1.67lm/W efficiency with blue CIE value of (0.165, 0.195).
