Abstract
This study reports oil the first monodispersed molecular materials embodying the dibenzothiophene-5,5-dioxide core for the achievement of blue electroluminescence. The core has been functionalised in its 2.8- or 3,7-positions with dimethyl-fluorene (2,8-DBTOF and 3,7-DBTOF) or methyl-carbazole (2,8-DBTOC and 3,7-DBTOC) groups. The obtained compounds were characterised by H-1 and C-13 NMR, APCI-MS, thermal analysis (TGA and DSQ and cyclic voltammetry. Their optical and photophysical properties were investigated by UV and PL measurements as well as by time-dependent density-functional theory calculations. The materials were successfully employed as active layers ill blue to purplish blue p-i-n OLED devices. that reached, in the case of 3,7-DBTOC, performances as high as 11 422 cd m(-2) and 3.25 cd A(-1).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
