Abstract: A new iridium pyrazine complex, [Ir(dphp)2(acac)] (dphp=2, 3 diphenylpyrazine, acac=acetylacetone), was synthesized by reaction of diphenylpyrazine with iridium trichloride hydrate. The complex was characterized by elemental analysis, 1H NMR, and mass spectroscopy. The UV Vis absorption and photoluminescence of the complex were investigated. The complex shows strong 1MLCT(singlet metal to ligand charge transfer) and 3MLCT(triplet metal to ligand charge transfer) absorption at 393 and 528 nm, respectively. Organic light emitting diodes(OLEDs) with a configuration of ITO/NPB(30 nm)/NPB∶8% [Ir(dphp)2(acac)] (25 nm)/PBD(10 nm)/Alq3(30 nm)/Mg∶Ag(mass ratio 9∶1)(130 nm) were fabricated by using this complex as the triplet emissive dopant in NPB. The diodes showed an external quantum efficiency of 13.85% at 6.5 V and brightness of 11 478 cd/m2 at 10 V. The power efficiency of the device was 15.54 lm/W at 6.5 V, indicating that this complex is a promising electrophosphorescent materials.
