Abstract:

Provided is a new composition of matter for phosphorescent emitters containing a chelating ligand including five or more fused carbocyclic or heterocyclic rings that form two bonds to a metal forming a 7-membered chelate. This fused ring structure provides added rigidity to the molecule for enhanced stability in an OLED device and improve photophysical properties.
