Abstract

Spectroelectrochemical study on a new absorption band of radical cations of4,4’-bis[N-(1-naphthyl)-N-phenyl-amino]-biphenyl (α-NPD) as anelectron-donor hole-transporting material used in organic electronics isreported in this work. UV-visible spectroscopic and cyclic voltammetricproperties for α-NPD in solution are also examined. We find that the resultsare attributed to quenching process for blue fluorescence from α-NPD byexcess α-NPD+ radical cations accumulated in the emission regionin the organic light-emitting devices related to a relatively large overlapbetween the fluorescence spectrum of α-NPD and the absorption spectrum of α-NPD+ radical cations. The band gap energy for α-NPD iscalculated from the UV-visible spectroscopic data.
