Recent Progress in Near-Infrared Organic Electroluminescent Materials
Tóm tắt
Near-infrared (NIR) refers to the section of the spectrum from 650 to 2500 nm. NIR luminescent materials are widely employed in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), fiber optic communication, sensing, biological detection, and medical imaging. This paper reviews organic NIR electroluminescent materials, including organic NIR electrofluorescent materials and organic NIR electrophosphorescent materials that have been investigated in the past 6 years. Small-molecule, polymer NIR fluorescent materials and platinum(II) and iridium(III) complex NIR phosphorescent materials are described, and the limitations of the development of NIR luminescent materials and future prospects are discussed.
