Abstract Three novel host materials 9-(4-(5-(4-(9-phenyl-9H-fluoren-9-yl)phenyl)-1H-indol-1-yl)phenyl)-9H-carbazole ( C1 ), 9-(4-(9,9-diphenyl-9H-fluoren-4-yl)-1H-indol-1-yl)-9-phenyl-9H-carbazole ( C2 ) and 9-(4-(5-(9,9-diphenyl-9H-fluoren-2-yl)-1H-indol-1-yl)phenyl)-9H-carbazole ( C3 ) based on spirofluorene, indole and carbazole derivatives have been designed and synthesized. Their thermal, photophysical and electrochemical properties were fully investigated. The OLED devices with C1 – C3 as host were fabricated to investigate their electroluminescent properties. Compound C3 obtained the best device performances with the maximum current efficiency of 45.2 cd A −1 and the maximum power efficiency of 23.2 lm W −1 for green phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes.
