“…Recently, this problem is mainly solved by both the introduction of long or big branched side chains into pyrene molecules and co-polymerization with a suitable bulky co-monomer. Very recently, it was reported that pyrene derivatives are useful in OLEDs applications (Otsubo et al, 2002;Thomas et al, 2005;Ohshita et al, 2003;Jia et al, 2004;Moorthy et al, 2007) as hole-transporting materials (Thomas et al, 2005; or host blue-emitting materials (Otsubo et al, 2002;Ohshita et al, 2003;Jia et al, 2004;Moorthy et al, 2007). To date, various pyrene-based light-emitting materials have been disclosed in recent literatures, which can be roughly categorized into three types of materials: (1) Functionalized pyrene-based light-emitting monomers; (2) Functionalized pyrene-based lightemitting dendrimers; and (3) Functionalized pyrene-based light-emitting oligomers and polymers.…”
