General description

PtOEP is an oxygen-quenchable luminescent dye.

Application

Platinum octaethylporphyrin (PtOEP) may be used as a fluorescent dye in the fabrication of polymer- and silica-based oxygen sensors. It is used as a red triplet emitting material with high external quantum yields for OLEDs. PtOEP is used as a dopant in host materials like CBP and Alq3. Its red emission is near 650 nm depending on host material and processing conditions.

Articles

In this article, we demonstrate that bis-styrylbenzene derivatives show promising characteristics for very low lasing thresholds and discuss the design considerations for organic lasing molecules.

Since their discovery, organic light emitting devices (OLEDs) have evolved from a scientific curiosity into a technology with applications in flat panel displays and the potential to revolutionize the lighting market. During their relatively short history, the technology has rapidly advanced, and device efficiencies have increased more than 20-fold, approaching the theoretical limit for internal quantum efficiencies.
