Highly efficient electrophosphorescent polymer light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with saturated red emission(Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage chromaticity coordinates exactly at x = 0.67, y = 0.33) areachieved by blending a novel neutral Osmium complex into a single-component bipolar polymer hostthat possesses balanced hole- and electron-transporting ability. By using a tetraphenylenebiphenyldiamine(TPD)-based cross-linkable hole-transport layer as well as a layer of 1,3,5-tris(N-phenylbenzimidazol-2-yl)benzene (TPBI) as an electron-transport layer, a device structure with both effective hole/electroninjection and efficient carriers/excitons blocking or confinement at both electrode sides is constituted. Inthis way, external quantum efficiency 12.8% is reached the first time with an organometallic complexwith heavy metal core other than iridium.
