The synthesis and properties of 3,6-bis(triphenylsilyl)carbazole as an effective host material for blue electrophosphorescence are reported. The electrochemically active C3 and C6 sites of carbazole are non-conjugated blocked with the steric, bulky and large-gap triphenylsilyls, the resulting new compound retains the large triplet energy of carbazole yet exhibits much enhanced morphological stability and electrochemical stability in comparison with previous carbazole-based host materials. Using this new host material, blue phosphorescent OLEDs having high efficiencies up to 16%, 30.6 cd/A and 26.7 lm/W are demonstrated.
