We demonstrate high efficiency solution-processed red phosphorescent OLEDs with small molecule mixed host systems. 2-TNATA (4,4′,4″-tris(N-(2-naphthyl)-N-phenyl-amino)triphenylamine):TPBI (2,2′,2″-(1,3,5-phenylene)tris(1-phenyl-1H-benzimidazole)) and m-MTDATA (4,4′,4″-tri-(N-3-methylphenyl-N-phenylamino)triphenylamine):TPBI host systems are reported as good soluble mixed host systems. A doping level of 3% bis(2-phenylquinoline)(acetylacetonate)iridium (Ir(phq)2acac) dopant in the 2-TNATA:TPBI (1:1 ratio) mixed host produces the best quantum efficiency and driving voltage. This fabricated red phosphorescent OLED has a driving voltage of 5.2 V and maximum current and power efficiencies of 17.8 cd/A and 11.3 lm/W, respectively. Minimal electron or hole trapping in the phosphorescent dopant molecules and prevention of self quenching by the low doping technique appear to be the key reasons for good device performance.
