A Theoretical Investigation into the Homo- and Hetero-leptic Cu(I) Phosphorescent Complexes Bearing 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline and bis [2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl]ether Ligand.

ABSTRACT: Cu(I) complexes have received widespread attention as a promising alternative to traditional noble-metal complexes. Herein, we systematically study the properties of Cu(I) complexes from homo- to hetero-ligands, and found the following: (1) hetero-ligands are beneficial to regulate phosphorescent efficiency; (2) when the hetero-ligands in a tetracoordinated Cu(I) complex are 1:1, the ligands coordinate along the d_x2-y2 direction of Cu(I) ion, which can observably suppress structural deformation; (3) unlike the P^P ligand, the N^N ligand can enhance the participation of Cu(I) during the transition process; (4) the addition of an appropriate amount of P^P ligand can effectively raise the energy level of HOMO (highest occupied molecular orbital), enhance the proportion of LLCT (lig
