Аннотация:A series of new lanthanide complexes with electron-donating (triphenylamine-, phenylcarbazole-) and electron-withdrawing (benzoxazole-, methyloxodiazole-, and phenyloxodiazole-) substituted Schiff bases ((E)-N-(2-((2-aryloylhydrazono)methyl)phenyl)-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide), designed to enhance charge carrier mobility, have been synthesized and fully characterized as well as the 2 structures of the compounds were established. Heteroleptic complexes with ligands of both classes were obtained during the mixed-ligand method synthesis. Photoluminescence quantum yield of heteroleptic species in contrast to luminescence lifetime was found to be higher than homoleptic ones – up to 1.65%. An 16% improvement in external current efficiency (ECE) in the same OLED heterostructure was shown (ECE up to 140 μW/W) in comparison with homoleptic ones (ECE up to 120 μW/W). This proves the correctness of the approach to improvement of the electroluminescence of the OLED based on the metal complexes.
