Popis: Despite concerted efforts to cyclometalated Ir(III)-complexes towards reliable vacuum-deposited/solution-processed deep-red organic/polymer light-emitting diodes (OLEDs/PLEDs), the realization of their all-solution-processed ones with desirable lower-cost, is challenging and rarely reported. In this work, using the Hdpqx (2,3-diphenylquinoxaline) as the C^N main ligand and the asymmetric π-donor HL1/HL2 (HL1 = (2-(4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)phenol); HL2 = 2-(1,4,5-triphenyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)phenol)) as the N^OH ancillary ligand, two C1-[Ir(C^N)2(N^O)]-heteroleptic Ir(III)-complexes [Ir(dpqx)2(L1)] (1) and [Ir(dpqx)2(L2)] (2) with efficient deep-red phosphorescence (λem = 662–665 nm and ΦPL = 0.34–0.42) were molecularly designed. Meanwhile, based on the all-solution-processed fabrication, their reliable all-solution-processed deep-red PLEDs with the attractive electroluminescent performance (ηcMax = 0.51–0.58 cd/A, ηpMax = of 0.11–0.13 lm/W and ηEQEMax = 2.08–2.16%; weak (ca. 26–27%) efficiency-roll-offs) were realized.
