New carbazole derivatives including coumarin moiety, 7-(3-Carbazol-9-yl-phenyl)-chromen-2-one (C-PCa), 7-(9-Phenyl-9H-carbazol-3-yl)-chromen-2-one (PCa-C), 7-[9-(3-Carbazol-9-yl-phenyl)-9H-carbazol-3-yl]-chromen-2-one (PDCa-C) were synthesized by Suzuki reaction. In film state, maximum UV-Vis absorption of three synthesized compounds appeared in the range 331 to 345 nm. PL spectrum of C-PCa, PCa-C and PDCa-C showed miximum emission wavelength of 449, 467 and 467 nm, respectively. C-PCa showed white emission of current efficiency of 1.16 cd/A, power efficiency of 0.59 lm/W and C.I.E of (0.26, 0.33). PCa-C showed current efficiency of 1.13 cd/A, power efficiency of 0.62 lm/W and C.I.E of (0.19, 0.27). PDCa-C showed the highest current efficiency of 1.34 cd/A, power efficiency of 0.62 lm/W and C.I.E of (0.18, 0.23).

4-methyl-7-(10-(pyren-1-yl)anthracen-9-yl)-2H-chromen-2-one (PAC), 7,7’-(anthracene-9,10-diyl)bis(4- methyl-2H-chromen-2-one) (CAC), 7-Anthracen-9-yl-4-methyl-chromen-2-one(AC), and 7-(naphthalen-1-yl)-2Hchromen-2-one (NC) were synthesized through Suzuki aryl-aryl coupling reaction. Optical and electroluminescence (EL) properties were evaluated by UV-visible absorption, photoluminescence (PL) spectra, and EL devices. Synthesized compounds were used as an emitting layer (EML) in non-doped device with the following structures: ITO/2-TNATA (60 nm)/NPB (15 nm)/synthesized compounds (35 nm)/Alq3 (20 nm)/LiF (1 nm)/Al (200 nm). Non-doped devices showed luminance efficiency (L.E.) of 1.38, 1.03, 1.12, and 0.39 cd/A at a current density of 10 mA/cm2.
