  • Fabrication and characterization of double-layer WOLED devices utilizing (E)-CPEY as the single-emitting component.
  • Main Results:

    • Excellent regio- and stereoselectivity achieved in the synthesis of (Z)-CPEY and (E)-CPEY.
    • (E)-CPEY demonstrated efficient white light emission by combining blue emission from isolated molecules and green/orange-red emission from excimers.
    • The (E)-CPEY-based WOLED achieved near-pure white light (CIE coordinates (0.32, 0.33)), high brightness (1395 cd m-2), and good current efficiency (2.07 cd A-1).
    • Remarkable stability of white emission quality across varying driving voltages.

    Conclusions:

    • Organolanthanide catalysts provide an effective route to synthesize carbazole-substituted phenyl enynes with high selectivity.
    • (E)-CPEY is a highly promising single-emitting component for achieving pure white light in WOLEDs.
    • The developed WOLED technology shows significant potential for practical applications due to its performance and stability.
