“…It is well demonstrated that the thermal stability or glass-state durability of organic compounds could be greatly improved upon incorporation of a carbazole or fused aromatic moiety in the core structure (Kuwabara et al, 1994;Koene et al, 1998;O'Brien et al, 1998). Furthermore, the carbazole moiety can be easily functionalized at its 3-, 6-, or 9-positions and covalently linked to other molecular moieties (Joule, 1984), such as alkyl, phenyl, diarylamine, pyrenyl, etc. Similarly, the fluorene molecule can also be easily functionalized at its 2-, 7-, and 9-positions (Lee et al, 2001;Zhao et al, 2006).…”
