Near-infrared electroluminescence based on perylenediimide-doped tris(8-quinolinolato) aluminum

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

For the purpose of exploring near-infrared emission, the photoluminescence (PL) and electro- luminescence (EL) of N,N′-bis(neopentyl)-3,4:9,10-perylenebis(dicarboximide) (BNPTCD): tris(8-quinolinolato)aluminum (Alq3) mixed films were investigated. It was found that BNPTCD:Alq3 mixed films exhibit PL in the near-infrared wavelength region and that organic light-emitting diodes using Alq3 highly doped with BNPTCD as an emitting layer exhibit near-infrared EL with a peak at 805 nm originating from BNPTCD aggregates.
