Syntheses, photoluminescence and electroluminescence of some new phosphorescent iridium(III)-based materials

Abstract

The research activities inspired us to initiate a systematic study to observe the color tuning of the iridium(III) complexes by choosing a particular cyclometalated ligand with substituents exhibiting different electronic properties. Tuning of maximum emission wavelengths depending upon the extent of conjugation and/or ring size and the effect of hetero atom will also be discussed.
