Selected Abstracts1,3-Diphenyl-5-(9-phenanthryl)-2-pyrazoline(DPPhP): An Excellent Hole-Transport Material for Use in Organic Light-Emitting DiodesCHINESE JOURNAL OF CHEMISTRY, Issue 10 2002Chang-Qi Ma Abstract An excellent hole-transport material, 1, 3-diphenyil-5-(9-phenanthryl)-2-pyrazoline (DPPhP) for OLEDs was studied. This compound not only offers high glass transition temperature (Tg = 96 °C), good film forming ability, and high HOMO energy level, but also displays excellent hole-transport property. The electroluminescent device with a simple structure of ITO/DPPhP (60 nm)/AlQ (60 nm)/LiF (0.8 nm)/Al shows an external quantum efficiency as high as 1.6%. [source] The Role of Transition Metal Oxides in Charge-Generation Layers for Stacked Organic Light-Emitting DiodesADVANCED FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS, Issue 11 2010Sami Hamwi Abstract The mechanism of charge generation in transition metal oxide (TMO)-based charge-generation layers (CGL) used in stacked organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) is reported upon. An interconnecting unit between two vertically stacked OLEDs, consisting of an abrupt heterointerface between a Cs2CO3 -doped 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline layer and a WO3 film is investigated. Minimum thicknesses are determined for these layers to allow for simultaneous operation of both sub-OLEDs in the stacked device. Luminance,current density,voltage measurements, angular dependent spectral emission characteristics, and optical device simulations lead to minimum thicknesses of the n-type doped layer and the TMO layer of 5 and 2.5,nm, respectively. Using data on interface energetic determined by ultraviolet photoelectron and inverse photoemission spectroscopy, it is shown that the actual charge generation occurs between the WO3 layer and its neighboring hole-transport material, 4,4',4"-tris(N -carbazolyl)-triphenyl amine. The role of the adjacent n-type doped electron transport layer is only to facilitate electron injection from the TMO into the adjacent sub-OLED. [source] An Organic Light-Emitting Diode with Field-Effect Electron Transport,ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS, Issue 1 2008S. Schols Abstract We describe an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) using field-effect to transport electrons. The device is a hybrid between a diode and a field-effect transistor. Compared to conventional OLEDs, the metallic cathode is displaced by one to several micrometers from the light-emitting zone. This micrometer-sized distance can be bridged by electrons with enhanced field-effect mobility. The device is fabricated using poly(triarylamine) (PTAA) as the hole-transport material, tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq3) doped with 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl-6-(julolindin-4-yl-vinyl)-4H-pyran (DCM2) as the active light-emitting layer, and N,N,-ditridecylperylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic diimide (PTCDI-C13H27), as the electron-transport material. The obtained external quantum efficiencies are as high as for conventional OLEDs comprising the same materials. The quantum efficiencies of the new devices are remarkably independent of the current, up to current densities of more than 10 A cm,2. In addition, the absence of a metallic cathode covering the light-emission zone permits top-emission and could reduce optical absorption losses in waveguide structures. These properties may be useful in the future for the fabrication of solid-state high-brightness organic light sources. [source] Synthesis and properties of nitrogen-linked poly(2,7-carbazole)s as hole-transport material for organic light emitting diodesJOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE (IN TWO SECTIONS), Issue 15 2009Tsuyoshi Michinobu Abstract A novel class of carbazole polymers, nitrogen-linked poly(2,7-carbazole)s, was synthesized by polycondensation between two bifunctional monomers using the palladium-catalyzed amination reaction. The polymers were characterized by 1H NMR, Infrared, Gel permeation chromatography, and MALDI-TOF MS and it was revealed that the combination of the monomer structures is important for producing high molecular weight polymers. Thermal analysis indicated a good thermal stability with high glass transition temperatures, e.g., 138 °C for the higher molecular weight polymer P2. To pursue the application possibilities of these polymers, their optical properties and energy levels were investigated by UV-Vis absorption and fluorescence spectra as well as their electrochemical characteristics. Although the blue light emission was indeed observed for all polymers in solution, the quantum yields were very low and the solid films were not fluorescent. On the other hand, the HOMO levels of the polymers estimated from the onset potentials for the first oxidation in the solid thin films were relatively high in the range of ,5.12 to ,5.20 eV. Therefore, light emitting diodes employing these polymers as a hole-transport layer and iridium(III) complex as a triplet emitter were fabricated. The device of the nitrogen-linked poly(2,7-carbazole) P3 with p,p,-biphenyl spacer, which has a higher HOMO level and a higher molecular weight, showed a much better performance than the device of P2 with m -phenylene spacer. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

[source] Theoretical design study on multifunctional triphenyl amino-based derivatives for OLEDsJOURNAL OF PHYSICAL ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 11 2009Lu-Yi Zou Abstract The use of triphenyl amino-based derivatives in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) can significantly improve their efficiency and stability and especially their electroluminescence characteristics , most of the new hole-transport materials have this feature. In this study, a series of triphenyl amino-based compounds were computed, including two newly designed molecules. They can function as charge transport materials and emitters with high efficiency and stability. To reveal the relationship between the properties and structures of these bifunctional and multifunctional electroluminescent materials, the ground and excited state geometries were optimized at the B3LYP/6-31G(d), HF/6-31G(d), TD-B3LYP/6-31G(d), and CIS/6-31G(d) levels, respectively. The ionization potentials (IPs) and electron affinities (EAs) were computed. The lowest excitation energies, the maximum absorption, and emission wavelengths of these compounds were calculated by employing the time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) method. Also, the mobilities of holes and electrons were studied computationally based on the Marcus electron transfer theory. The CH2Cl2 solvent effect on the absorption spectra of N,N,-di-1-naphthyl- N,N,-diphenylbenzidine (NPB) was considered by polarizable continuum model (PCM). The results obtained for these compounds are in good agreement with the experimental values. These data show that the proposed compounds 1 and 2 (N,B-di-1-naphthyl-N,B-diphenylbenzidine and Mes2N[p-4,4,-biphenyl-NPh(1-naphthyl)]), are multifunctional and bifunctional materials similar to Mes2B[p -4,4,-biphenyl-NPh(1-naphthyl)] (BNPB) and NPB, respectively.
