Oxadiazole Moiety (oxadiazole + moiety)
Selected AbstractsPoly(methyl methacrylate) copolymers containing pendant carbazole and oxadiazole moieties for applications in single-layer organic light emitting devicesJOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE (IN TWO SECTIONS), Issue 23 2008David D. Evanoff Jr. Abstract Methyl methacrylate derived monomers functionalized with pendant carbazole and oxadiazole moieties were synthesized and could be copolymerized to form a random copolymer. The glass transition temperature of the copolymers could be predicted with a Fox equation and ranged from 140 to 191 °C. The photoluminescent characteristics of the copolymers, both in solution and in solid films, exhibited emission that was a combination of sharp and broad peaks, suggestive of monomeric and chromophore aggregation emission. These trends were also apparent in the electroluminescent response of the copolymers, where the appearance of an electromer emission was evident and was tentatively assigned to the carbazole moieties. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The incorporation of the oxadiazole moiety greatly improves their morphological stability, with Td and Tg in the range of 428,464,°C and 97,133,°C, respectively. The ortho and meta positions of the 2,5-diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole linked hybrids (1 and 3) show less intramolecular charge transfer and a higher triplet energy compared to the para-position linked analogue (2). The four compounds exhibit similar LUMO levels (2.55,2.59,eV) to other oxadiazole derivatives, whereas the HOMO levels vary in a range from 5.55,eV to 5.69,eV, depending on the linkage modes. DFT-calculation results indicate that 1, 3, and 4 have almost complete separation of their HOMO and LUMO levels at the hole- and electron-transporting moieties, while 2 exhibits only partial separation of the HOMO and LUMO levels possibly due to intramolecular charge transfer. Phosphorescent organic light-emitting devices fabricated using 1,4 as hosts and a green emitter, Ir(ppy)3 or (ppy)2Ir(acac), as the guest exhibit good to excellent performance. Devices hosted by o -CzOXD (1) achieve maximum current efficiencies (,c) as high as 77.9,cd A,1 for Ir(ppy)3 and 64.2,cd A,1 for (ppy)2Ir(acac). The excellent device performance may be attributed to the well-matched energy levels between the host and hole-transport layers, the high triplet energy of the host and the complete spatial separation of HOMO and LUMO energy levels.

Oxadiazole monomers with t -butyl or trifluoromethyl groups, 2 and 7, respectively, were used for copolymerization. Photoluminescent measurements of polymers revealed that the formation of the exciplex between triphenylamine and oxadiazole units tends to occur in the order of random copolymers, block copolymers, and polymer blends, implying phase-separated morphologies in block or blend systems. The polymers were applied for OLED devices, and we found that the morphology in the polymer layer critically affected device performance. The block copolymer comprising hole and electron transporting units with the composition of 14/86 showed the highest external quantum efficiency over 10%. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

These polymers show good solubility in common organic solvents, high thermal stability, and strong violet and blue photoluminescence in solution and as films, respectively. Their low-lying highest occupied molecular orbital/lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy levels originate from the electron deficiency of an oxadiazole moiety, and this suggests that they may be useful for blue-emitting and electron-transport/hole-blocking layers in electroluminescent devices. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
