摘要
有机发光自由基材料是一类新型的发光材料,从分子轨道的电子排布来看,其发光是区别于传统材料的双线态激子发光.目前具有发光性质的有机自由基材料种类较少,并且大部分分子稳定性差、荧光量子产率低.本文以稳定性较差、荧光量子产率较低的三(2,4,6-三氯代苯基)甲基自由基(TTM)为骨架,在分子外围引入咪唑基团,得到两种改良的发光自由基TTM-Imz2和TTM-Imz3,详细表征了两者的光物理性质和稳定性,并应用于有机电致发光器件(OLEDs).结果表明,两者溶液中的荧光量子产率及稳定性相比于TTM均有大幅提升,并实现了波长较短的橙光发射,其中以TTM-Imz3制备的橙光OLED的最大外量子效率达到2.9%.
Recently organic luminescent radical materials have attracted much attention as a class of novel luminescent materials which can produce doublet emission. Here we report two modified organic luminescent radicals TTM-Imz2 and TTM-Imz3 derived from tris(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)methyl radical (TTM) through introduction of imidazole. Various measuring methods have been carried out to characterize the structure and radical properties of the two products, such as gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and electron paramagnetic resonance spectrometer (EPR). The existence of single electron on two products has been confirmed by the EPR spectra with gffM_imz~=2.0040 and gXTM_imz3=2.0038, which were close to the free electron (g=2.0023). Then, photo- physical properties have been characterized through ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), steady state fluorescence spectroscopy, transient state fluorescence spectroscopy, and so on. Absorption spectra of TTM-Imz2 and TTM-Imz3 both have a strong absorption band at short wavelength and a week absorption band at long wavelength. For TTM-Imz2, its absorption peaks are 2=382 and 552 nm, and for TTM-Imz3, 2=390 and 558 nm. Emission spectra of TTM-Imz2 and TTM-Imz3 in various solvents do not show significant change. The emission peak of TTM-Imz2 is 2=581 nm in hexane, and for TTM-Imz3, 2=584 nm. Compared to the emission peak of TTM, they have bathochromic shift about 20 nm. Using rhodamine 6G in ethanol as a standard, the relative fluorescence quantum yields of TTM-Imz2 and TTM-Imz3 in chloroform have been determined under excitation with A^x=380 nm, which are up to 5.9% and 10.5% respectively. The excited luminescence lifetime (r) of TTM-Imz2 and TTM-Imz3 in chloroform were 12.8 and 16.1 ns respectively determined by transient fluorescence decay. Furthermore, theoretical calculations have been carried out to study the molecular orbitals, electron distribution and the effect of imidazole moiet
