Abstract:
A significant improvement in the stability of a light emitting electrochemical cell was achieved by utilizing a novel iridium(III) complex: 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline-bis(2-phenylpyridine)iridium(III) hexafluorophosphate. The enhanced device stability is correlated by means of DFT studies to be related to a more efficient shielding of the reactive LUMO of the complex.
