Efficiency roll-off in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) as result of high current densities represents a substantial drawback for technical applications. However, since high brightness is a major request for lighting purposes, high current densities are unavoidable. To identify and analyse the impact of quenching processes on the efficiency, time-resolved spectral measurements on a red phosphorescent OLED with Iridium(III)bis(2-methyldibenzo-[f,h]quinoxaline)(acetylacetonate) (Ir(MDQ)2(acac)) as emitter have been performed. We probe the excited states lifetime after a short laser pulse on top of the steady-state region of a rectangular electrical pulse [1]. By continuously increasing the current density of the electrical pulse, the non-radiative decay becomes more likely and the excited states lifetime decreases. A comparison of the calculated external quantum efficiency (EQE) based on these data with direct EQE measurements reveals the influence and the origin of quenching processes on the efficiency roll-off of the device.
