The invention relates to a
blue light ionic type
iridium complex as well as a preparation method and application thereof. The complex takes an
iridium complex as a luminescent center and is formed bythe coordination of a main ligand and an auxiliary ligand. The complex takes
iridium as a luminescent center, is formed by the coordination of a main ligand and an auxiliary ligand, and has a generalstructural formula shown in formula 1 (as described in the specification), wherein the structure of D is shown in formula 2; the auxiliary ligand N^N may independently be one of tetrabutylammonium
cyanide,
pyridine, 2,2'-
bipyridine, and 1,10-
phenanthroline; (as described in the specification), wherein n is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 20, and is a natural number; and * is a connection position. The
blue light ionic type iridium complex provided by the invention is simple in material preparation, easy in control of a reaction process, easy in purification and separation ofa product, and high in yield and purity. This kind of material has good
solubility and can be used to prepare efficient organic light-emitting diodes and organic light-emitting
electrochemical cell devices by a solution method; and the obtained devices show good
thermal stability and film-forming stability and have a potential application value in the aspect of organic light-emitting devices.
