A charge trapping host structure was developed to improve the light-emitting efficiency of green phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes. N, N'-dicarbazolyl-3,5-benzene(mCP) and a spirobifluorene based triplet host(PHl) were co-deposited as hosts in the emitting layer and the device performance was examined according to the composition mCP and PH1. The results showed that the quantum efficiency could be improved by 30 % using a mixed host of mCP and PH1.

To improve the performance of blue fluorescent and green phosphorescent organic light-emitting diode devices, Merck developed novel green phosphorescent host and electron-transporting materials. The newly developed electron-transporting material improves the external quantum efficiency of blue fluorescent devices up to 8.7%, with an excellent lifetime. In combination with the newly developed host materials, the efficiency of green phosphorescent devices can be improved by a factor of 1.7, and the lifetime by a factor of 7.

We have investigated the effect of host on the device charactistics of green phosphorescent organic light emitting devices consising of mCP, CBP and TPBi. Electrons were confined within the device by inserting hole transport layer between the electro transport and the emitting layer. When the appropriate interlayers were added, the device with TPBI host layer performances were found to be dramatically enhanced, with current efficiency and lifetime of 18cd/A and 18hour.

New green host materials, 9-phenyl-3-(4-(1-phenyl-1H-benzo[d] imidazol-2-yl)phenyl)-9H-carbazole (3a) and 9-(naphthyl-2-yl)-3-(4-(1-phenyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)phenyl)-9H-carbazole (3b), have been designed and synthesized by attaching the electron transporting benzimidazole moiety to the hole transporting carbazole unit. These compounds have similar HOMO, LUMO levels and band-gap characteristics compared with CBP (4,4'-di(N-carbazolyl)biphenyl). The fabricated green phosphorescent OLED with this 3a host shows much better device performances compared to CBP-based one. The current and power efficiency is enhanced at least by 60 percent at a given constant luminance of 1000 cd/$m^2$.

A polymeric host for triplet emitters composed of N-alkylcarbazole and tetramethylbenzene units was successfully synthesized. Efficient energy transfer was observed between this polymeric host and green phosphorescent dyes. The device fabricated using 5 wt% green 1 in the polymeric host as the emitting layer showed the best performance. Thin films of this host-guest system, exhibiting clear stripe patterns could be prepared through the LITI process. The patterned films were then used to fabricate electrophosphorescent devices, which show performance characteristics similar to those of spin-coated devices. The new host material is a good candidate to be used in polymer-based full-color electrophosphorescent light-emitting displays.

We have developed transparent OLED with green phosphorescent doped layer using transparent metal cathode deposited by thermal evaporation technique. Phosphorescent guest molecule, $Ir(ppy)_3$, was doped in host mCP for the green phosphorescent emission. Ca/Ag double layers were used as a cathode material of transparent OLED. The turn-on voltage of OLED was 5.2 V. The highest efficiency of the device reachs to 31 cd/A at 2 mA/$cm^2$.

In order to improve the performance in green phosphorescent OLED devices, Merck has developed novel host and electron blocking materials. The newly developed host materials improve the device lifetime by a factor of 3. The newly developed electron blocking materials having not only electron but also exciton barrier properties increase the efficiency of the device by a factor of 1.4. Comparable results were achieved in phosphorescent red systems with further host materials.

The organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) based on fluorescence have low efficiencies due to the requirement of spin-symmetry conservation. By using the phosphorescent material, the internal quantum efficiency can reach 100 %, compared to 25 % in the case of the fluorescent material. Thus, the phosphorescent OLEDs have recently been extensively studied and showed higher internal quantum efficiencies then the conventional OLEDs. In this study, we investigated the characteristics of the phosphorescent OLEDs, with the green emitting phosphor, Ir(ppy)$_3$ (tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium). The devices with a structure of ITO/TPD/Ir(PPy)$_3$ doped in the host material/BCP/Alq$_3$/Li:Al/Al were fabricated, and its electrical and optical characteristics were studied. By changing the doping concentration of Ir(PPy)$_3$ and the host materials, we fabricated several devices and investigated the device characteristics.

Two series of new green phosphorescent polymers bearing a bis(2-phenyl-pyridine)iridium(III)(dibenzoylmethane) [$(ppy)_2Irdbm$] complex were designed and synthesized. Poly-carbazole (PCbz) derivative or polyfluorene with pendant carbazole groups (PFCbz) were employed as host polymers for the iridium complex. The iridium complex monomer was copolymerized with the host monomers using varying monomer ratios via a Yamamoto coupling reaction. Efficient energy transfer from host to dopant unit was observed by increasing the ratio of the iridium guest in the copolymers. Electroluminescent devices with the configuration ITO/PEDOT:PSS/polymer/BmPyPB/LiF/Al were fabricated and characterized. The phosphorescent polymers composed of the iridium complex guest and polyfluorene with carbazole pendants as a host performed better than the polymers composed of the same guest and the main chain polycarbazole host. A maximum external quantum efficiency of 0.73%, a luminous efficiency of 1.21 cd/A, and a maximum luminance of 372 $cd/m^2$ were obtained from a device fabricated using one of the synthesized copolymers.
