Highly efficient deep blue organic light emitting devices have been fabricated with a 4-(styryl)biphenyl-core based fluorescent dopant (SK-1) in the wide band gap 2-methyl-9,10-di(1-naphthyl)anthracene (-MADN) host system which achieved an electroluminescence efficiency of and an external quantum efficiency of 4.2% at with a saturated blue Commission Internationale de l’Eclairage coordinates of (0.15, 0.14) and a half-decay lifetime of at an initial brightness of . The current efficiency and electroluminescent color of SK-1 doped devices have been shown to be essentially immune to drive current density.
