DETAILED DESCRIPTION
A. Terminology
[0012] Unless otherwise specified, the below terms used herein are defined as follows:
[0013] As used herein, top means furthest away from the substrate, while bottom means closest to the substrate. Where a first layer is described as disposed over a second layer, the first layer is disposed further away from substrate. There may be other layers between the first and second layer, unless it is specified that the first layer is in contact with the second layer. For example, a cathode may be described as disposed over an anode, even though there are various organic layers in between.
[0014] As used herein, solution processable means capable of being dissolved, dispersed, or transported in and/or deposited from a liquid medium, either in solution or suspension form.
[0015] As used herein, and as would be generally understood by one skilled in the art, a first Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital (HOMO) or Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital (LUMO) energy level is greater than or higher than a second HOMO or LUMO energy level if the first energy level is closer to the vacuum energy level. Since ionization potentials (IP) are measured as a negative energy relative to a vacuum level, a higher HOMO energy level corresponds to an IP having a smaller absolute value (an IP that is less negative). Similarly, a higher LUMO energy level corresponds to an electron affinity (EA) having a smaller absolute value (an EA that is less negative). On a conventional energy level diagram, with the vacuum level at the top, the LUMO energy level of a material is higher than the HOMO energy level of the same material. A higher HOMO or LUMO energy level appears closer to the top of such a diagram than a lower HOMO or LUMO energy level.
[0016] As used herein, and as would be generally understood by one skilled in the art, a first work function is greater than or higher than a second work function if the first work function has a higher absolute value. Because work functions are generally measured as negative numbers relative to vacuum level, this means that a higher work function is more negative. On a conventional energy level diagram, with the vacuum level at the top, a higher work function is illustrated as further away from the vacuum level in the downward direction. Thus, the definitions of HOMO and LUMO energy levels follow a different convention than work functions.
[0017] Layers, materials, regions, and devices may be described herein in reference to the color of light they emit. In general, as used herein, an emissive region that is described as producing a specific color of light may include one or more emissive layers disposed over each other in a stack.
[0018] As used herein, a NIR, red, green, blue, yellow layer, material, region, or device refers to a layer, a material, a region, or a device that emits light in the wavelength range of about 700-1500 nm, 580-700 nm, 500-600 nm, 400-500 nm, 540-600 nm, respectively, or a layer, a material, a region, or a device that has a highest peak in its emission spectrum in the respective wavelength region. In some arrangements, separate regions, layers, materials, or devices may provide separate deep blue and light blue emissions. As used herein, the deep blue emission component refers to an emission having a peak emission wavelength that is at least about 4 nm less than the peak emission wavelength of the light blue emission component. Typically, a light blue emission component has a peak emission wavelength in the range of about 465-500 nm, and a deep blue emission component has a peak emission wavelength in the range of about 400-470 nm, though these ranges may vary for some configurations.
[0019] In some arrangements, a color altering layer that converts, modifies, or shifts the color of the light emitted by another layer to an emission having a different wavelength is provided. Such a color altering layer can be formulated to shift wavelength of the light emitted by the other layer by a defined amount, as measured by the difference in the wavelength of the emitted light and the wavelength of the resulting light. In general, there are two classes of color altering layers: color filters that modify a spectrum by removing light of unwanted wavelengths, and color changing layers that convert photons of higher energy to lower energy. For example, a red color filter can be present in order to filter an input light to remove light having a wavelength outside the range of about 580-700 nm. A component of a color refers to a component that, when activated or used, produces or otherwise emits light having a particular color as previously described. For example, a first emissive region of a first color and a second emissive region of a second color different than the first color describes two emissive regions that, when activated within a device, emit two different colors as previously described.
[0020] As used herein, emissive materials, layers, and regions may be distinguished from one another and from other structures based upon light initially generated by the material, layer or region, as opposed to light eventually emitted by the same or a different structure. The initial light generation typically is the result of an energy level change resulting in emission of a photon. For example, an organic emissive material may initially generate blue light, which may be converted by a color filter, quantum dot or other structure to red or green light, such that a complete emissive stack or sub-pixel emits the red or green light. In this case the initial emissive material, region, or layer may be referred to as a blue component, even though the sub-pixel is a red or green component.
[0021] In some cases, it may be preferable to describe the color of a component such as an emissive region, sub-pixel, color altering layer, or the like, in terms of 1931 CIE coordinates. For example, a yellow emissive material may have multiple peak emission wavelengths, one in or near an edge of the green region, and one within or near an edge of the red region as previously described. Accordingly, as used herein, each color term also corresponds to a shape in the 1931 CIE coordinate color space. The shape in 1931 CIE color space is constructed by following the locus between two color points and any additional interior points. For example, interior shape parameters for red, green, blue, and yellow may be defined as shown below:
TABLE-US-00001 Color CIE Shape Parameters Central Red Locus: [0.6270, 0.3725]; [0.7347, 0.2653]; Interior: [0.5086, 0.2657] Central Green Locus: [0.0326, 0.3530]; [0.3731, 0.6245]; Interior: [0.2268, 0.3321 Central Blue Locus: [0.1746, 0.0052]; [0.0326, 0.3530]; Interior: [0.2268, 0.3321] Central Yellow Locus: [0.3731, 0.6245]; [0.6270, 0.3725]; Interior: [0.3700, 0.4087]; [0.2886, 0.4572]

[0049] In yet other instances, the Most Preferred General Substituents are selected from the group consisting of deuterium, alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, and combinations thereof.
[0050] The terms substituted and substitution refer to a substituent other than H that is bonded to the relevant position, e.g., a carbon or nitrogen. For example, when R.sup.I represents mono-substitution, then one R.sup.I must be other than H (i.e., a substitution). Similarly, when R.sup.I represents di-substitution, then two of R.sup.I must be other than H. Similarly, when R.sup.I represents zero or no substitution, R.sup.I, for example, can be a hydrogen for all available valencies of ring atoms, as in carbon atoms for benzene and the nitrogen atom in pyrrole, or simply represents nothing for ring atoms with fully filled valencies, e.g., the nitrogen atom in pyridine. The maximum number of substitutions possible in a ring structure will depend on the total number of available valencies in the ring atoms.
[0051] As used herein, combinations thereof indicates that one or more members of the applicable list are combined to form a known or chemically stable arrangement that one of ordinary skill in the art can envision from the applicable list. For example, an alkyl and deuterium can be combined to form a partial or fully deuterated alkyl group; a halogen and alkyl can be combined to form a halogenated alkyl substituent; and a halogen, alkyl, and aryl can be combined to form a halogenated arylalkyl. In one instance, the term substitution includes a combination of two to four of the listed groups. In another instance, the term substitution includes a combination of two to three groups. In yet another instance, the term substitution includes a combination of two groups. Preferred combinations of substituent groups are those that contain up to fifty atoms that are not hydrogen or deuterium, or those which include up to forty atoms that are not hydrogen or deuterium, or those that include up to thirty atoms that are not hydrogen or deuterium. In many instances, a preferred combination of substituent groups will include up to twenty atoms that are not hydrogen or deuterium.
[0052] The aza designation in the fragments described herein, i.e. aza-dibenzofuran, aza-dibenzothiophene, etc. means that one or more of the CH groups in the respective aromatic ring can be replaced by a nitrogen atom, for example, and without any limitation, azatriphenylene encompasses both dibenzo[fh]quinoxaline and dibenzo[fh]quinoline. One of ordinary skill in the art can readily envision other nitrogen analogs of the aza-derivatives described above, and all such analogs are intended to be encompassed by the terms as set forth herein.
[0053] As used herein, deuterium refers to an isotope of hydrogen. Deuterated compounds can be readily prepared using methods known in the art. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 8,557,400, Patent Pub. No. WO 2006/095951, and U.S. Pat. Application Pub. No. US 2011/0037057, which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties, describe the making of deuterium-substituted organometallic complexes. Further reference is made to Ming Yan, et al., Tetrahedron 2015, 71, 1425-30 and Atzrodt et al., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. (Reviews) 2007, 46, 7744-65, which are incorporated by reference in their entireties, describe the deuteration of the methylene hydrogens in benzyl amines and efficient pathways to replace aromatic ring hydrogens with deuterium, respectively.
[0054] As used herein, any specifically listed substituent, such as, without limitation, methyl, phenyl, pyridyl, etc. includes undeuterated, partially deuterated, and fully deuterated versions thereof. Similarly, classes of substituents such as, without limitation, alkyl, aryl, cycloalkyl, heteroaryl, etc. also include undeuterated, partially deuterated, and fully deuterated versions thereof. Unless otherwise specified, atoms in chemical structures without valences fully filled by H or D should be considered to include undeuterated, partially deuterated, and fully deuterated versions thereof. For example, the chemical structure of implies to include C.sub.6H.sub.6, C.sub.6D.sub.6, CH.sub.3D.sub.3, and any other partially deuterated variants thereof. Some common basic partially or fully deuterated group include, without limitation, CD.sub.3, CD.sub.2C(CH.sub.3).sub.3, C(CD.sub.3).sub.3, and C.sub.6D.sub.5.
[0055] It is to be understood that when a molecular fragment is described as being a substituent or otherwise attached to another moiety, its name may be written as if it were a fragment (e.g. phenyl, phenylene, naphthyl, dibenzofuryl) or as if it were the whole molecule (e.g. benzene, naphthalene, dibenzofuran). As used herein, these different ways of designating a substituent or attached fragment are considered to be equivalent.
[0056] In some instances, a pair of substituents in the molecule can be optionally joined or fused into a ring. The preferred ring is a five to nine-membered carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring, includes both instances where the portion of the ring formed by the pair of substituents is saturated and where the portion of the ring formed by the pair of substituents is unsaturated. In yet other instances, a pair of adjacent substituents can be optionally joined or fused into a ring. As used herein, adjacent means that the two substituents involved can be on the same ring next to each other, or on two neighboring rings having the two closest available substitutable positions, such as 2,2 positions in a biphenyl, or 1,8 position in a naphthalene.

[0301] In such heteroleptic compounds, a sphere having a radius r is defined whose center is the metal M and the radius r is the smallest radius that will allow the sphere to enclose all atoms in the compound that are not part of the substituents R.sup.I, R.sup.II and R.sup.III; and where at least one of D.sup.1, D.sup.2, and D.sup.3 is greater than the radius r by at least 1.5 A. In some embodiments, at least one of DI, D.sup.2, and D.sup.3 is greater than the radius r by at least 2.9, 3.0, 4.3, 4.4, 5.2, 5.9, 7.3, 8.8, 10.3, 13.1, 17.6, or 19.1 A. In some embodiments, at least two of DI, D.sup.2, and D.sup.3 is greater than the radius r by at least 1.5, 2.9, 3.0, 4.3, 4.4, 5.2, 5.9, 7.3, 8.8, 10.3, 13.1, 17.6, or 19.1 A.
[0302] In some embodiments of such heteroleptic compound, the compound has a transition dipole moment axis and angles are defined between the transition dipole moment axis and the vectors V.sub.D1, V.sub.D2, and V.sub.D3, where at least one of the angles between the transition dipole moment axis and the vectors V.sub.D1, V.sub.D2, and V.sub.D3 is less than 40. In some embodiments, at least one of the angles between the transition dipole moment axis and the vectors V.sub.D1, V.sub.D2, and V.sub.D3 is less than 30, 20, 15, or 10. In some embodiments, at least two of the angles between the transition dipole moment axis and the vectors V.sub.D1, V.sub.D2, and V.sub.D3 are less than 20. In some embodiments, at least two of the angles between the transition dipole moment axis and the vectors V.sub.D1, V.sub.D2, and V.sub.D3 are less than 150 or 10.
[0303] In some embodiments, all three angles between the transition dipole moment axis and the vectors V.sub.D1, V.sub.D2, and V.sub.D3 are less than 20. In some embodiments, all three angles between the transition dipole moment axis and the vectors V.sub.D1, V.sub.D2, and V.sub.D3 are less than 150 or 10.
[0304] In some embodiments of such heteroleptic compounds, the compound has a vertical dipole ratio (VDR) of 0.33 or less. In some embodiments of such heteroleptic compounds, the compound has a VDR of 0.30, 0.25, 0.20, or 0.15 or less.
[0305] One of ordinary skill in the art would readily understand the meaning of the terms transition dipole moment axis of a compound and vertical dipole ratio of a compound. Nevertheless, the meaning of these terms can be found in U.S. Pat. No. 10,672,997 whose disclosure is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. In U.S. Pat. No. 10,672,997, horizontal dipole ratio (HDR) of a compound, rather than VDR, is discussed. However, one skilled in the art readily understands that VDR=1-HDR.
[0306] In some embodiments, the compound can be an emissive dopant. In some embodiments, the compound can produce emissions via phosphorescence, fluorescence, thermally activated delayed fluorescence, triplet-triplet annihilation, or combinations of these processes. In some embodiments, the emissive dopant can be a racemic mixture, or can be enriched in one enantiomer. In some embodiments, the present compounds can have different stereoisomers, such as fac and mer. The current compound relates both to individual isomers and to mixtures of various isomers in any mixing ratio. In some embodiments, the compound can be homoleptic (each ligand is the same). In some embodiments, the compound can be heteroleptic (at least one ligand is different from others). When there are more than one ligand coordinated to a metal, the ligands can all be the same in some embodiments. In some other embodiments, at least one ligand is different from the other ligands. In some embodiments, every ligand can be different from every other ligand. This is also true in embodiments where a ligand being coordinated to a metal can be linked with other ligands being coordinated to that metal to form a tridentate, tetradentate, pentadentate, or hexadentate ligands. Thus, where the coordinating ligands are being linked together, all of the ligands can be the same in some embodiments, and at least one of the ligands being linked can be different from the other ligand(s) in some other embodiments.
[0307] In yet another aspect of the present disclosure, a formulation that comprises the novel compound disclosed herein is described. The formulation can include one or more components selected from the group consisting of a solvent, an emitter, a host, a hole injection material, hole transport material, electron blocking material, hole blocking material, and an electron transport material, disclosed herein.
[0308] The present disclosure encompasses any chemical structure comprising the novel compound of the present disclosure, or a monovalent or polyvalent variant thereof. In other words, the inventive compound, or a monovalent or polyvalent variant thereof, can be a part of a larger chemical structure. Such chemical structure can be selected from the group consisting of a monomer, a polymer, a macromolecule, and a supramolecule (also known as supermolecule). As used herein, a monovalent variant of a compound refers to a moiety that is identical to the compound except that one hydrogen has been removed and replaced with a bond to the rest of the chemical structure. As used herein, a polyvalent variant of a compound refers to a moiety that is identical to the compound except that more than one hydrogen has been removed and replaced with a bond or bonds to the rest of the chemical structure. In the instance of a supramolecule, the inventive compound can also be incorporated into the supramolecule complex without covalent bonds. As used in this context, the description that a structure A comprises a moiety B means that the structure A includes the structure of moiety B not including the H or D atoms that can be attached to the moiety B. This is because at least one H or D on a given moiety structure has to be replaced to become a substituent so that the moiety B can be part of the structure A, and one or more of the H or D on a given moiety B structure can be further substituted once it becomes a part of structure A.

[0323] In some embodiments, the organic layer may further comprise a host, wherein the host comprises a metal complex.
[0324] In some embodiments, the emissive layer can comprise two hosts, a first host and a second host. In some embodiments, the first host is a hole transporting host, and the second host is an electron transporting host. In some embodiments, the first host is a hole transporting host, and the second host is a bipolar host. In some embodiments, the first host is an electron transporting host, and the second host is a bipolar host. In some embodiments, the first host and the second host can form an exciplex. In some embodiments, the emissive layer can comprise a third host. In some embodiments, the third host is selected from the group consisting of an insulating host (wide band gap host), a hole transporting host, and an electron transporting host. In some embodiments, the third host forms an exciplex with one of the first host and the second host, or with both the first host and the second host. In some embodiments, the emissive layer can comprise a fourth host. In some embodiments, the fourth host is selected from the group consisting of an insulating host (wide band gap host), a hole transporting host, and an electron transporting host. In some embodiments, the fourth host forms an exciplex with one of the first host, the second host, and the third host, with two of the first host, the second host, and the third host, or with each of the first host, the second host, and the third host. In some embodiments, the electron transporting host has a LUMO less than 2.4 eV, less than 2.5 eV, less than 2.6 eV, or less than 2.7 eV. In some embodiments, the hole transporting host has a HOMO higher than 5.6 eV, higher than 5.5 eV, higher than 5.4 eV, or higher than 5.35 eV. The HOMO and LUMO values can be determined using solution electrochemistry. Solution cyclic voltammetry and differential pulsed voltammetry can be performed using a CH Instruments model 6201B potentiostat using anhydrous dimethylformamide (DMF) solvent and tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate as the supporting electrolyte. Glassy carbon, platinum wire, and silver wire were used as the working, counter and reference electrodes, respectively. Electrochemical potentials can be referenced to an internal ferrocene-ferroconium redox couple (Fc/Fc+) by measuring the peak potential differences from differential pulsed voltammetry. The corresponding highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energies can be determined by referencing the cationic and anionic redox potentials to ferrocene (4.8 eV vs. vacuum) according to literature ((a) Fink, R.; Heischkel, Y.; Thelakkat, M.; Schmidt, H.-W. Chem. Mater 1998, 10, 3620-3625. (b) Pommerehne, J.; Vestweber, H.; Guss, W.; Mahrt, R. F.; Bassler, H.; Porsch, M.; Daub, J. Adv. Mater. 1995, 7, 551).
[0325] In some embodiments, the compound as described herein may be a sensitizer or a component of a sensitizer; wherein the device may further comprise an acceptor that receives the energy from the sensitizer. In some embodiments, the acceptor is an emitter in the device. In some embodiments, the acceptor may be a fluorescent material. In some embodiments, the compound described herein can be used as a phosphorescent sensitizer in an OLED where one or multiple layers in the OLED contain an acceptor in the form of one or more non-delayed fluorescent and/or delayed fluorescence material. In some embodiments, the compound described herein can be used as one component of an exciplex to be used as a sensitizer. As a phosphorescent sensitizer, the compound must be capable of energy transfer to the acceptor and the acceptor will emit the energy or further transfer energy to a final emitter. The acceptor concentrations can range from 0.001% to 99.9%. The acceptor could be in either the same layer as the phosphorescent sensitizer or in one or more different layers. In some embodiments, the acceptor is a thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) material. In some embodiments, the acceptor is a non-delayed fluorescent material. In some embodiments, the emission can arise from any or all of the sensitizer, acceptor, and final emitter. In some embodiments, the acceptor has an emission at room temperature with a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of equal to or less than 50, 45, 40, 35, 30, 25, 20, 15, 10, or 5 nm. Narrower FWHM means better color purity for the OLED display application.
[0326] As used herein, phosphorescence generally refers to emission of a photon with a change in electron spin quantum number, i.e., the initial and final states of the emission have different electron spin quantum numbers, such as from T1 to S0 state. Most of the Ir and Pt complexes currently used in OLED are phosphorescent emitters. In some embodiments, if an exciplex formation involves a triplet emitter, such exciplex can also emit phosphorescent light. On the other hand, fluorescent emitters generally refer to emission of a photon without a change in electron spin quantum number, such as from S1 to S0 state, or from D1 to D0 state. Fluorescent emitters can be delayed fluorescent or non-delayed fluorescent emitters. Depending on the spin state, fluorescent emitter can be a singlet emitter or a doublet emitter, or other multiplet emitter. It is believed that the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of fluorescent OLEDs can exceed the 25% spin statistics limit through delayed fluorescence. There are two types of delayed fluorescence, i.e. P-type and E-type delayed fluorescence. P-type delayed fluorescence is generated from triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA). On the other hand, E-type delayed fluorescence does not rely on the collision of two triplets, but rather on the thermal population between the triplet states and the singlet excited states. Thermal energy can activate the transition from the triplet state back to the singlet state. This type of delayed fluorescence is also known as TADF. E-type delayed fluorescence characteristics can be found in an exciplex system or in a single compound. Without being bound by theory, it is believed that TADF emissions require a compound or an exciplex having a small singlet-triplet energy gap (E.sub.S-T) less than or equal to 400, 350, 300, 250, 200, 150, 100, or 50 meV. There are two major types of TADF emitters, one is called donor-acceptor type TADF, the other one is called multiple resonance (MR) TADF. Often, single compound donor-acceptor TADF compounds are constructed by connecting an electron donor moiety such as amino- or carbazole-derivatives and an electron acceptor moiety such as N-containing six-membered aromatic rings or cyano-substituted aromatic rings. Donor-acceptor exciplexes can be formed between a hole transporting compound and an electron transporting compound. Examples of MR-TADF materials include highly conjugated fused ring systems. In some embodiments, MR-TADF materials comprises boron, carbon, and nitrogen atoms. Such materials may comprise other atoms, such as oxygen, as well. In some embodiments, the reverse intersystem crossing time from T1 to Si of the delayed fluorescent emission at 293K is less than or equal to 10 microseconds. In some embodiments, such time can be greater than 10 microseconds and less than 100 microseconds.
[0327] In some embodiments, the OLED may comprise an additional compound selected from the group consisting of a non-delayed fluorescence material, a delayed fluorescence material, a phosphorescent material, and combination thereof.
[0328] In some embodiments, the inventive compound described herein is a phosphorescent material.
[0329] In some embodiments, the phosphorescent material is an emitter which emits light within the OLED. In some embodiments, the phosphorescent material does not emit light within the OLED. In some embodiments, the phosphorescent material energy transfers its excited state to another material within the OLED. In some embodiments, the phosphorescent material participates in charge transport within the OLED. In some embodiments, the phosphorescent material is a sensitizer or a component of a sensitizer, and the OLED further comprises an acceptor. In some embodiments, the phosphorescent material forms an exciplex with another material within the OLED, for example a host material, an emitter material.
[0330] In some embodiments, the non-delayed fluorescence material or the delayed fluorescence material is an emitter which emits light within the OLED. In some embodiments, the non-delayed fluorescence material or the delayed fluorescence material does not emit light within the OLED. In some embodiments, the non-delayed fluorescence material or the delayed fluorescence material energy transfers its excited state to another material within the OLED. In some embodiments, the non-delayed fluorescence material or the delayed fluorescence material participates in charge transport within the OLED. In some embodiments, the non-delayed fluorescence material or the delayed fluorescence material is an acceptor, and the OLED further comprises a sensitizer.
[0331] In some embodiments of the OLED, the delayed fluorescence material comprises at least one donor group and at least one acceptor group.

In some embodiments, the fluorescence material comprises at least one chemical group selected from the group consisting of naphthalene, anthracene, phenalene, phenanthrene, fluorene, pyrene, chrysene, perylene, and azulene.

In some embodiments, the first emissive region comprises a first number of emissive layers that are deposited one over the other if more than one; and the second emissive region comprises a second number of emissive layers that is deposited one over the other if more than one; and the first number is different from the second number. In some embodiments, both the first emissive region and the second emissive region comprise a phosphorescent materials, which may be the same or different. In some embodiments, the first emissive region comprises a phosphorescent material, while the second emissive region comprises a fluorescent material. In some embodiments, both the first emissive region and the second emissive region comprise a fluorescent materials, which may be the same or different.
[0335] In some embodiments, the at least one pixel of the OLED or emissive regions includes a total of N subpixels; wherein the N subpixels comprises the first subpixel and the second subpixel; wherein each of the N subpixels comprises an emissive region; wherein the total number of the emissive regions within the at least one pixel is equal to or less than N-1. In some embodiments, the second emissive region is exactly the same as the first emissive region; and each subpixel of the at least one pixel comprises the same one emissive region as the first emissive region. In some embodiments, the full-color pixel arrangements can have a plurality of pixels comprising a first pixel region and a second pixel region; wherein at least one display characteristic in the first pixel region is different from the corresponding display characteristic of the second pixel region, and wherein the at least one display characteristic is selected from the group consisting of resolution, cavity mode, color, outcoupling, and color filter.
[0336] In some embodiments, the OLED is a stacked OLED comprising one or more charge generation layers (CGLs). In some embodiments, the OLED comprises a first electrode, a first emissive region disposed over the first electrode, a first CGL disposed over the first emissive region, a second emissive region disposed over the first CGL, and a second electrode disposed over the second emissive region. In some embodiments, the first and/or the second emissive regions can have the various device characteristics as described above for the pixelated device.

For example, the first emissive region is comprised in a sensitizing device, while the second emissive region is not comprised in a sensitizing device; in some instances, both the first and the second emissive regions are comprised in sensitizing devices.
[0337] In some embodiments, the OLED can emit light having at least 1%, 5%, 10, 30%, 50%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 99%, or 100% from the plasmonic mode. In some embodiments, at least one of the anode, the cathode, or a new layer disposed over the organic emissive layer functions as an enhancement layer. The enhancement layer comprises a plasmonic material exhibiting surface plasmon resonance that non-radiatively couples to the emitter material and transfers excited state energy from the emitter material to non-radiative mode of surface plasmon polariton. In some embodiments, the enhancement layer is provided no more than a threshold distance away from the organic emissive layer, wherein the emitter material has a total non-radiative decay rate constant and a total radiative decay rate constant due to the presence of the enhancement layer. A threshold distance is where the total non-radiative decay rate constant is equal to the total radiative decay rate constant. Another threshold distance is the distance at which the total radiative decay rate constant divided by the sum of the total non-radiative decay rate constant and total radiative decay rate constant is equal to the photoluminescent yield of the emissive material without the enhancement layer present.
[0338] In some embodiments, the OLED further comprises an outcoupling layer. In some embodiments, the outcoupling layer is disposed over the enhancement layer on a side opposite the organic emissive layer. The outcoupling layer scatters the energy from the surface plasmon polaritons. In some embodiments this energy is scattered as photons to free space. In other embodiments, the energy is scattered from the surface plasmon mode into other modes of the device such as but not limited to the organic waveguide mode, the substrate mode, or another waveguiding mode. In some embodiments, one or more intervening layer can be disposed between the enhancement layer and the outcoupling layer. The examples for intervening layer(s) can be dielectric materials, including organic, inorganic, perovskites, oxides, and may include stacks and/or mixtures of these materials.
[0339] The enhancement layer modifies the effective properties of the medium in which the emitter material resides resulting in any or all of the following: a decreased rate of emission, a modification of emission line-shape, a change in emission intensity with angle, a change in the stability of the emitter material, a change in the efficiency of the OLED, and a reduced efficiency roll-off of the OLED device. Placement of the enhancement layer on the cathode side, anode side, or on both sides, or the enhancement layer itself being as the CGL, results in OLED devices which take advantage of any of the above-mentioned effects. In addition to the specific functional layers mentioned herein and illustrated in the various OLED examples shown in the figures, the OLEDs according to the present disclosure may include any of the other functional layers often found in OLEDs.

In some embodiments, the enhancement layer is provided as a planar layer. In other embodiments, the enhancement layer has wavelength-sized features that are arranged periodically, quasi-periodically, or randomly, or sub-wavelength-sized features that are arranged periodically, quasi-periodically, or randomly.
[0341] In some embodiments, the outcoupling layer has wavelength-sized or sub-wavelength sized features that are arranged periodically, quasi-periodically, or randomly. In some embodiments, the outcoupling layer may be composed of a plurality of nanoparticles. In some embodiments, the outcoupling layer is composed of a plurality of nanoparticles disposed over a material. In these embodiments the outcoupling layer may be tunable by at least one of: varying a size of the plurality of nanoparticles, varying a shape of the plurality of nanoparticles, changing a material of the plurality of nanoparticles, adjusting a thickness of the material, changing the refractive index of the material, adding an additional layer disposed on the plurality of nanoparticles, varying a thickness of the enhancement layer, or varying the material of the enhancement layer. The plurality of nanoparticles of the device may be formed from at least one of metal, dielectric material, semiconductor materials, an alloy of metal, a mixture of dielectric materials, a stack or layering of one or more materials, and/or a core of one type of material and that is coated with a shell of a different type of material. In some embodiments, the outcoupling layer is composed of at least metal nanoparticles wherein the metal is selected from the group consisting of Ag, Al, Au, Ir, Pt, Ni, Cu, W, Ta, Fe, Cr, Mg, Ga, Rh, Ti, Ru, Pd, In, Bi, and Ca, alloys or mixtures of these materials, and stacks of these materials. In some embodiments the outcoupling layer is formed by lithography.
[0342] In some embodiments of plasmonic device, the emitter, and/or host compounds used in the emissive layer has a vertical dipole ratio (VDR) of 0.33 or more. In some such embodiments, the emitter, and/or host compounds have a VDR of 0.40, 0.50, 0.60, 0.70, or more.
[0343] In yet another aspect, the present disclosure also provides a consumer product comprising an organic light-emitting device (OLED) having an anode; a cathode; and an organic layer disposed between the anode and the cathode, wherein the organic layer may comprise a compound or a formulation of the compound as disclosed in the above compounds section of the present disclosure.
[0344] In some embodiments, the consumer product comprises an OLED having an anode; a cathode; and an organic layer disposed between the anode and the cathode, wherein the organic layer may comprise the compound as described herein.
[0345] Generally, an OLED comprises at least one organic layer disposed between and electrically connected to an anode and a cathode. When a current is applied, the anode injects holes and the cathode injects electrons into the organic layer(s). The injected holes and electrons each migrate toward the oppositely charged electrode. When an electron and hole localize on the same molecule, and an exciton, which is a localized electron-hole pair having an excited energy state, is formed. Light is emitted when the exciton relaxes via a photoemissive mechanism. In some cases, the exciton may be localized as an excimer or an exciplex. Non-radiative mechanisms, such as thermal relaxation, may also occur, but are generally considered undesirable.
