Abstract

The review is devoted to analysis of photo- and electroluminescent properties of metal complexes (Al, Be, Mg, Ga, In, Zn, and B) based on substituted quinoline derivatives. Literature data shows that changing the substituents in quinoline ligands and the metal complexing agent can affect the color and intensity of photoluminescence in the corresponding metal complexes. OLED devices fabricated based on these complexes have exhibited high brightness and efficient electroluminescence across a broad spectral range from red to blue. Furthermore, these compounds possess excellent electron-transport properties, enabling their utilization as conductive layers in OLEDs.

Univ., 2015; ISBN 978-5-9275-1469-4. This chapter discusses complexes of metals (Al, Be, Mg, Ga, In, Zn, and B) with 8-substituted quinoline ligands, which were used as electroluminescent and electron-transport layers in OLED devices. The photoluminescence and electroluminescence properties of metal complexes are systematically categorized based on the nature of the metal complexing agent and the modification of ligand systems using 8-substituted quinolines.
