Abstract

The use of triplet excitons harvesting and short exciton lifetime organic emitters is important to improve the exciton utilization in organic semiconductor laser diodes. In this study, a hybridized local and charge-transfer (HLCT)-type molecule, 11-(3-(10-(4-(1-phenyl-1H-phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazol-2-yl)phenyl)anthracen-9-yl)phenyl)-11H-benzofuro[3,2-b]carbazole (PhAnMBf), is used as an emitter for blue-emitting organic solid-state lasers (OSSLs). The short exciton lifetime and high photoluminescence quantum yield of the PhAnMBf emitter allowed the fabrication of an organic laser with an emission wavelength of 453 nm, a small full width at half-maximum of 1.2 nm, and a threshold of 105 nJ/pulse, corresponding to 44 μJ/cm2, on the distributed feedback substrate. The anthracene-based PhAnMBf material showed the potential of the HLCT emitter as an OSSL.
