Synthesis and characterization of blue light emitting polymers based on arylene vinylene

Abstract

New blue polymers having poly(arylenevinylene) derivatives composed of biphenylene-vinylene-m-(tbutylated)phenylene-vinylene and terphenylene-vinylene-m-(t-butylated)phenylene-vinylene in the main chain were synthesized by nickel catalyzed Yamamoto coupling and palladium-catalyzed Suzuki coupling reactions. The polymers showed good solubility in a common organic solvent and weight average molecular weights of 11,100 to 9,800 with a polydispersity index of 1.46-1.2. The polymers with a highly twisted structure exhibited deep blue emission with (λ max =465 for the homopolymer and λ max =457 nm for copolymer) as well as good thermal stability.Double layer light emitting diode devices fabricated using the obtained polymers as emitters showed blue emission with a maximum brightness of 18-225 cd/m 2 .

Synthesis and electroluminescence property of new hexaphenylbenzene derivatives including amine group for blue emitters

“…Intensive studies have been conducted on organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) as they have a great potential to be applied to large full-color displays and mobile displays [1-3]. Most of the conjugated organic molecules have been reported as red, green, and blue electroluminescence (EL) [4].…”

A Benzodithiophene-based Semiconducting Polymer for Organic Thin Film Transistor

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6] The OTFTs have been developed for large-area and low-cost electronics using liquid patterning and deposition techniques has fueled active research in printed electronics. [7][8][9][10] Organic semiconductors can be used as active layer by simple solution process, most of the reported devices were fabricated using a spin-coated polymer.…”
