Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of luminescent materials technology, and particularly relates to a fluorene-based aromatic hydrocarbon nanopolymer, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Since the advent of the first polymer-based organic light-emitting diode (PLED) in the 1990s, PLEDs have increasingly become an important development direction in the display technology field due to their significant advantages in flexible displays, energy efficiency, response speed, color performance, and cost-effectiveness. Compared with traditional liquid crystal display technology, PLED displays are particularly flexible, which provides endless possibilities for the design of new wearable devices and foldable electronic products. In addition, the wide variety of organic materials used in PLED technology provides great flexibility for customizing displays with specific light-emitting characteristics.

[0003] While organic polymer emissive layers have garnered significant attention in the field of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), several challenges remain, such as the relatively unstable emission behavior of deep blue emissive conjugated polymers. Specifically, severe roll-off in emission efficiency and uncontrollable emission color purity occur over extended periods. Due to the inherent wide bandgap of deep blue polymers, they are prone to attracting narrow bandgap defect "guest" emission centers, including chemical (structural changes) and physical (aggregates, excimers, foreign impurities) defects, thus negatively impacting emission efficiency and color purity. Furthermore, energy level matching between the charge transport layer and the emissive layer in deep blue PLEDs remains a technical challenge. This mismatch can lead to an imbalance in charge injection and transport, resulting in charge accumulation. These issues adversely affect device performance and stability, limiting their practical application. Therefore, ensuring relatively superior charge transport behavior while pursuing single-emissive chromophore emission behavior is crucial. Adding to the complexity, when devices are exposed to adsorbed water and oxygen, excitons located in easily conjugated segments cause a significant performance degradation, which has become one of the obstacles to the commercialization of organic polymer emissive devices.

[0004] As a typical representative of organic wide-bandgap semiconductors, fluorene-based luminescent materials are among the most popular blue or sky-blue luminescent materials, possessing excellent photoelectric properties and multi-site modification characteristics. Polyfluorene exhibits excellent thermal stability, high photoluminescence quantum efficiency, and good charge transport properties, making it one of the most promising blue polymer materials in the OLED field. However, polyfluorene materials also suffer from luminescence instability, such as reduced color purity and decreased luminescence stability. The large bandgap also leads to lower carrier density and charge transport capacity in its amorphous state, affecting its luminescence efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention proposes a fluorenyl ligand nanopolymer, its preparation method, and its applications. The fluorenyl ligand nanopolymer of this invention exhibits excellent performance in improving carrier mobility, spectral stability, and morphological stability. This invention utilizes a seed covalent quantization-driven method to directly self-assemble a lattice framework into a photonic crystal microstructure, providing a new approach for cross-scale morphology-guided molecular design in the fields of organic mechatronics and intelligence. Simultaneously, by modulating multilayer cracks using molecular super-resistance etching technology, it successfully achieved efficient emission of deep blue random laser, which also provides a device structure-level approach for realizing organic electro-pumped lasers.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] One of the technical solutions of the present invention:

[0008] This invention provides a fluorene-based chromatophore nanopolymer (PLG-Cz), the structural formula of which is as follows:

[0009]

[0010] The number-average molecular weight (Mn) of the PLG-Cz is 36003, and the molecular weight distribution index (PDI) is 1.66. The Mn and PDI were obtained by GPC testing.

[0011] In conjugated polymers, the planarity and conjugation length of the chain segments are crucial to the photoelectric properties of the material. When polymer chains deviate from their planar conjugated structure due to twisting or entanglement, it can lead to changes in the band structure. The luminescence of conjugated polymers mainly originates from π-π* transitions, while chain twisting or entanglement can lead to the generation of additional energy levels, resulting in luminescence different from that of normal conjugated segments. The PLG-Cz of this invention has a smaller cell backbone, exhibiting excellent thermal and ozone stability, which provides strong support for its practical applications. Simultaneously, the carrier mobility of the fluorene-based chromatophore nanopolymer PLG-Cz, which employs a conjugated design strategy, is significantly higher than that of the non-conjugated PG-Cz. The efficiency of PLG-Cz is 2.2 times that of lattice-based nanopolymers with high carrier mobility (n is a positive integer from 3 to 100), which provides a reliable reference for the design of subsequent high carrier mobility lattice-based nanopolymers. PLG-Cz not only possesses excellent stability but is also an excellent laser gain medium (ASE threshold of 20.04 μJ·cm⁻¹). -2 This discovery provides a new molecular design strategy for the realization of organic electrically pumped lasers, and is expected to drive progress in the field.

[0051] This invention synthesizes fluorene-based chromatophore nanopolymers (PLG-Cz), which are conjugated chromatophore nanopolymers, using diarylfluorene as the smallest basic unit cell in the backbone. Three different synthetic strategies were employed to synthesize IDF-DBr, and the performance of these strategies in terms of synthesis difficulty, yield, and synthesis cycle was comprehensively evaluated. Ultimately, the optimal IDF-Br synthesis route (Method 1) was determined using iodobromo-tert-ol as the starting material. This strategy cleverly utilizes the difference in reactivity between bromine and iodine to achieve precise and efficient synthesis of monosubstituted borate esters. Subsequently, IDF-Br was synthesized in high yield via the Suzuki reaction (coupling reaction) without organic solvent involvement. This synthetic route not only exhibits significantly high yield and reusability but also demonstrates environmental friendliness, providing a solid foundation for the large-scale production of building blocks and paving the way for the industrialization of chromatophore nanopolymers. PLG-Cz was successfully prepared using Yamamoto polymerization.

[0055] The fourth technical solution of the present invention:

[0056] The present invention also provides an electroluminescent thin film prepared from the above-mentioned fluorene-based aromatic hydrocarbon nanopolymer.

[0057] For example, the electroluminescent thin film is prepared by drop casting, solvent casting, solvothermal annealing or spin coating.

[0058] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and technical effects:

[0059] In the preparation of the conjugated lattice aromatic hydrocarbon nanopolymer PLG-Cz in this invention, the Suzuki reaction using water as a solvent was employed to prepare its monomers, demonstrating excellent environmental friendliness and green properties. The target polymer product PLG-Cz was successfully synthesized via a Yamamoto coupling reaction, and its stability was compared with that of the previously synthesized lattice-based nanopolymer PG-Cz under different conditions. PLG-Cz exhibited excellent thermal and ozone stability, providing strong support for its practical applications. Furthermore, the carrier mobility of the lattice-based nanopolymer PLG-Cz, designed using a conjugated strategy, was 2.2 times that of the non-conjugated PG-Cz, providing a reliable reference for the design of subsequent high-carrier-mobility lattice-based nanopolymers. In addition to its excellent stability, PLG-Cz is also an excellent laser gain medium (ASE threshold of 20.04 μJ·cm⁻¹). -2 This discovery provides a new molecular design strategy for the realization of organically electrically pumped lasers, and is expected to drive progress in this field. Furthermore, the thin film assembled from PLG-Cz exhibits excellent photonic crystal properties. The PLED using it as the emitting layer demonstrates superior electroluminescence efficiency compared to spin-coated films, and effectively suppresses efficiency roll-off. Its unique multi-scale structural order endows the thin film with high tunability of photoelectric properties, providing new directions and ideas for the design and control of optoelectronic materials.

Detailed Implementation

[0073] Various exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail. This detailed description should not be considered as a limitation of the present invention, but rather as a more detailed description of certain aspects, features, and embodiments of the present invention.

[0074] It should be understood that the terminology used in this invention is merely for describing particular embodiments and is not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, with respect to numerical ranges in this invention, it should be understood that each intermediate value between the upper and lower limits of the range is also specifically disclosed. Every smaller range between any stated value or intermediate value within a stated range, and any other stated value or intermediate value within said range, is also included in this invention. The upper and lower limits of these smaller ranges may be independently included or excluded from the range.

[0075] Unless otherwise stated, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. While only preferred methods and materials have been described herein, any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein may be used in the implementation or testing of this invention. All references to this specification are incorporated by way of citation to disclose and describe methods and / or materials associated with those references. In the event of any conflict with any incorporated reference, the content of this specification shall prevail.

[0076] Various modifications and variations can be made to the specific embodiments described in this specification without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention, as will be apparent to those skilled in the art. Other embodiments derived from this specification will also be readily apparent to those skilled in the art. This specification and embodiments are merely exemplary.

[0077] The terms “include,” “including,” “have,” “contain,” etc., used in this article are all open-ended terms, meaning that they include but are not limited to.

[0078] Unless otherwise specified, the room temperature in this invention is 25±2℃.

[0079] All raw materials and reagents used in the embodiments of this invention were purchased commercially.

[0080] The synthetic route of the fluorene-based chromatophore nanopolymer PLG-Cz of this invention is as follows:

[0081]

[0082] (a) K2CO3 / KF, Pd(PPh3)4, 85℃, 24h; (b) BF3·OEt2, CH2Cl2, 24h; (c) Bipyridine, Ni(COD)2, 1,5-cyclooctadiene, toluene / DMF, 85℃, 6 days.

[0083] As an example, the method for preparing electroluminescent thin films using the drop casting method is as follows: PLG-Cz is mixed with toluene to make the concentration of the PLG-Cz toluene solution 5-10 mg / mL. -1 To ensure the appropriate polymer concentration in the solution, the solution should not be too viscous due to excessive concentration, affecting the uniformity of the coating, nor too thin, affecting subsequent experimental observation and performance testing. Drop casting is performed in a dust-free, room-temperature environment to avoid contamination from dust and other impurities, while also facilitating solvent evaporation and film formation. 100 μL of PLG-Cz toluene solution is measured using a pipette and applied to a 1.5 cm × 1.5 cm quartz plate. At room temperature, the toluene solvent completely evaporates after 15 minutes, leaving a uniform PLG-Cz film. This drop-cast film (i.e., the PLG-Cz film) is used for subsequent optical performance testing, structural characterization, and other studies.

[0084] As an example, the method for preparing electroluminescent thin films using solvent casting is as follows: PLG-Cz is mixed with toluene solvent to form a homogeneous PLG-Cz toluene solution with a concentration of 2–10 mg·mL⁻¹. -1 The prepared PLG-Cz toluene solution is transferred to a suitable sample vial or other vessel, and the cap is placed on top to prevent rapid evaporation of the toluene. The vessel is then placed at room temperature to allow the toluene solvent to evaporate slowly; this process typically takes 3 to 7 days, depending on the initial amount of solvent, the size of the vessel, and environmental conditions. As the solvent gradually evaporates, PLG-Cz gradually deposits at the bottom of the vessel, forming a large-area continuous film. This film formation process is bottom-up, ensuring the uniformity and consistency of the film. Once the solvent has completely evaporated, the film is essentially formed, but it may still be relatively soft and fragile. To improve the film's stability and mechanical strength, it is dried at 80°C. This step removes any residual solvent molecules from the film and strengthens its internal structure, making it more robust and durable.

[0085] As an example, the method for preparing electroluminescent thin films using solvothermal annealing is as follows: PLG-Cz is dissolved in DCE, and the concentration is controlled at 0.2–5 mg / mL. -1Ethanol was added to the above solution, and the mixture was heated to 75°C and stirred continuously for 30 minutes. PLG-Cz molecules gradually aggregated to form tiny spherical structures, i.e., nanospheres. The mixture was then left to stand at room temperature. During this process, the nanospheres continued to grow and aggregate. After 5 minutes, the solution changed from clear to emulsified. This emulsion was formed by the dispersion of PLG-Cz nanospheres in the solvent and has special optical properties and surface activity. The emulsion was left to stand for another 2 to 3 days, and the nanospheres gradually deposited at the bottom of the container, forming a uniform nanosphere film (also called a microsphere film). The nanosphere film was then placed in a closed environment filled with a good solvent (toluene) for 2 days of fumigation treatment. During this process, the vapor of the good solvent interacted with the nanosphere film, causing the polymer molecules in the film to rearrange and pack tightly, thereby improving the crystallinity and stability of the film.

[0086] As an example, the steps of spin coating film formation are as follows: Prepare a PLG-Cz solution with a concentration of 10 mg / mL (solvent is toluene), and use a pipette to draw 80 μL and drop it onto a quartz plate. Set the spin coating time to 30 seconds and the rotation speed to 1200 rpm / s. Long spin coating time helps the solution to spread fully on the substrate and form a uniform film.

[0087] It should be noted that any aspects not described in detail in this invention are conventional practices in the field and are not the focus of this invention.

[0088] The technical solution of the present invention will be further illustrated by the following embodiments.

Inject a small amount of 4-n-octyloxybromobenzene (3.70 g, 0.010 mmol) and THF (20 mL) into the reactor using a syringe, and initiate the reaction by blowing hot air. Then, place the reaction apparatus in an ice-water bath and slowly add THF (20 mL) and the remaining 4-n-octyloxybromobenzene (30.23 g, 0.106 mol). Place the reaction system at 60 °C for 3 h.

[0095] b. In another dried apparatus, 14.63 g (0.038 mol) of 2-bromo-7-iodo-9-fluorenone was added, followed by evacuation and nitrogen protection. The mixture was then heated to 85 °C, and THF (80 mL) and the reaction solution from reaction a were slowly added. The mixture was stirred for 24 h to obtain a solution containing I-FOH-Br. After cooling to room temperature, the solution was quenched with saturated NH4Cl solution, extracted with water and dichloromethane, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and separated by column chromatography using petroleum ether:dichloromethane = 4:1 (volume ratio, the same below) as the eluent, yielding 18.37 g of a viscous liquid (i.e., I-FOH-Br), with a yield of 81.7%. The I-FOH-Br... 1 H NMR (400MHz, CDCl3): δ (ppm) 7.71-7.63 (m, 2H), 7.49 (s, 2H), 7.43-7.36 (m, 2H), 7.26-7.23 (t, J = 12Hz, 2H), 6.82-6.80 (d, J = 8 Hz,2H),3.94-3.91(t,J=12Hz,2H),2.43(s,1H),1.79-1.72(m,2H),1.45-1.28(m,10H),0.90-0.86(t,J=16Hz,3H).I-FOH-Br 13 C NMR (100MHz, CDCl3): δ (ppm) 158.61, 152.26, 151.99, 138.23, 138.04, 137.45, 134.07, 133.49, 132.29, 128.22, 126.47, 122 .66,121.84,121.60,114.44,94.03,83.03,68.09,31.88,29.42,29.32,29.26,26.09,22.75,14.24.HRMS(ESI,m / z):calcd for C 27 H 28 BrIO2:590.03; found:590.02.

[0097] Synthesis of the target product Bpin-FOH-Br:

[0098] I-FOH-Br (1.32 g, 2.23 mmol), pinacol diboronate (0.850 g, 3.345 mmol), palladium acetate (10 mg, 0.045 mmol), CuI (85 mg, 0.45 mmol), PPh3 (12 mg, 0.45 mmol), and Cs2CO3 (1.09 g, 2.23 mmol) were placed in a dried three-necked reaction flask, and the mixture was purged under nitrogen protection. 10 mL of deoxygenated acetonitrile was added, and the reaction was carried out at room temperature for 12 h. The mixture was extracted with dichloromethane, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the solvent was removed by rotary evaporation. The crude product containing I-FOH-Br was used directly in subsequent reactions.

[0099] Synthesis of the target product IDF-DBr:

[0100] I-FOH-Br (0.650 g, 1.1 mmol), Bpin-FOH-Br (crude product, 0.875 g), and Pd(PPh3)4 (0.058 g, 0.05 mmol) were placed in a dried three-necked reaction flask, and the mixture was then purged under nitrogen protection. A K2CO3 / KF aqueous solution (4 M, 15 mL) pre-bubbled for 2 h was injected into the flask, and the reaction was carried out at 85 °C for 24 h. The mixture was quenched with water, extracted with dichloromethane, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and separated by column chromatography using petroleum ether:dichloromethane:ethyl acetate = 8:1:0.3, yielding 613 mg of a white solid (IDF-DBr), yield: 60%.

[0101] To confirm that the final product of the above method was IDF-DBr, the 1H NMR spectra of 2-bromo-7-iodo-9-fluorenone, I-FOH-Br, and IDF-DBr were tested (see [link to NMR spectra]). Figure 2 From this, we can see that in I-FOH-Br 1 The presence of hydrogen signals from alkoxy groups (3.91–3.94 ppm) and hydroxyl groups (2.43 ppm) in the 1H NMR spectrum confirmed the synthesis of I-FOH-Br. In IDF-DBr... 1 The 1H NMR spectrum still shows hydrogen signals of hydroxyl peak (2.43 ppm) and alkoxy chain (3.91-3.94 ppm), and the number of hydrogen integrals is double. After integrating and summing the 1H NMR spectrum, the total number is 56, which is equal to the theoretical number of hydrogens. In summary, the synthesis of IDF-DBr is confirmed.

After the reaction was complete, the reaction mixture was transferred to a chromatography column pre-packed with 35 cm of neutral alumina. Purification was performed under pressure using THF as the eluent. The eluted solution was concentrated and reprecipitated with methanol. The reprecipitated product was filtered and collected. After Soxhlet extraction for 5 days, the final product was dried under vacuum to obtain a pale yellow solid, PLG-Cz. GPC (gel permeation chromatography) analysis (PS system) determined the Mn of the obtained PLG-Cz to be 36003 and the PDI to be 1.66.

Inject deoxygenated K2CO3 / KF aqueous solution (4 M, 10 mL) and tetrahydrofuran / toluene solution (1:1, 40 mL), and react at 85 °C for 24 h. After cooling to room temperature, add deionized water, extract three times with dichloromethane, concentrate and dry the extract under vacuum, and recrystallize from ethanol during the purification stage to obtain 609 mg of white solid (i.e., DMDB-QPD), yield: 78.3%.

[0134] The NMR spectra of biphenylboronic acid diester, methyl 2-iodo-5-bromobenzoate, and the final product were analyzed by superimposed 1H NMR spectra. Figure 7 As can be seen, the methoxy group in methyl 2-iodo-5-bromobenzoate appears in the proton NMR spectrum of the final product, and the number of hydrogen atoms is twice that of the total hydrogen atoms, confirming that the final product has a two-sided structure with two methoxy groups. Furthermore, by integrating the number of hydrogen atoms in the NMR spectrum, the total number of hydrogen atoms is found to be 20, thus confirming the successful synthesis of DMDB-QPD.

[0135] Synthesis of the target product BFOD-DBr:

[0136] DMDB-QPD (577 mg, 1 mmol) was added to 50.0 mL of 80 wt.% H2SO4 (prepared from 10.0 mL H2O and 40.0 mL concentrated (99.99 wt.%) H2SO4) and stirred at 120 °C for 12 h. During this period, the white solid turned dark brown. The reaction mixture was poured into ice water and filtered to collect the brown powder. The collected product was washed with sodium bicarbonate solution and water until the filtrate was neutral. The filter cake was dried and used directly for the next step of the reaction.

[0138] Taking the PLG-Cz prepared in Example 1 as an example, performance tests were conducted as follows:

[0139] The redox electrochemical tests of PLG-Cz were performed using the voltammetric characteristic method, and the results are as follows: Figure 8 As shown, the band gap of PLG-Cz was determined to be 3.36 eV by analyzing the current-voltage characteristic curve using the tangent method. This value is significantly larger than that of PG-Cz (3.33 eV), which not only reveals the unique electronic structure characteristics of PLG-Cz, but also indicates its promising application prospects as a blue light-emitting polymer material in the optoelectronic field, providing a solid theoretical basis for the fabrication of PLG-Cz in PLED devices.

[0140] The TGA spectrum (a) and DSC spectrum (b) of PLG-Cz are as follows: Figure 9 As shown, the thermal decomposition temperature of polymer PLG-Cz exceeding 5% is 332℃, exhibiting a high thermal decomposition temperature and good heat resistance. No obvious endothermic or exothermic peaks were found in the DSC curve, therefore there is no significant glass transition temperature or melting point between 25 and 260℃. PLG-Cz not only demonstrates excellent thermal stability (T... d With a fluorescence lifetime of 332℃ and blue light emission (CIE coordinates (0.16, 0.08)), PLG-Cz effectively mitigates the fluorescence quenching effect caused by molecular aggregation due to its large steric hindrance. Simultaneously, its short fluorescence lifetime indicates that PLG-Cz is a potential laser gain medium. Furthermore, PLG-Cz exhibits excellent aging resistance in ozone environments, with significantly better stability than other materials. Regarding ultraviolet light stability, PLG-Cz shows minimal spectral changes, indicating that photo-oxidation stability can be effectively improved through rational molecular design.

[0141] The film-forming properties of organic light-emitting materials during solution processing are crucial for manufacturing high-performance organic optoelectronic devices. Good film-forming properties ensure the formation of uniform, continuous, and defect-free thin films during preparation, which is essential for achieving efficient charge injection and transport, improving device luminous efficiency, and ensuring device stability and lifespan. In PLED devices, defects and inhomogeneities in the thin film lead to inconsistent light-emitting areas, thereby reducing overall luminous efficiency. Furthermore, in industrial production, film-forming properties determine whether organic light-emitting materials can be efficiently coated onto large-area substrates, which is significant for cost reduction and commercial production. Therefore, this invention simultaneously investigated the film-forming properties of PLG-Cz using theoretical calculations and film roughness analysis: 5 mg of PLG-Cz was dissolved in 1 mL of toluene and ultrasonically cleaned for 1 minute to ensure complete dissolution in the toluene solvent. 90 μL was then pipetted onto a substrate and maintained at 1200 rpm / min for 30 seconds until the solvent in the film completely evaporated. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) revealed that the height difference of the PLG-Cz film was only 6.5 nm, exhibiting a uniform and flat surface. Furthermore, the surface roughness of the PLG-Cz film was only 2.86 nm, further confirming the superior surface smoothness of PLG-Cz.

[0142] Three types of thin films were prepared by drop casting, solvent casting, and solvent thermal annealing, respectively, and are designated as drop-cast film, solvent-cast film, and solvent thermal annealed film. The reflectance spectrum of the solvent thermal annealed film was studied by angle-resolved reflectance spectroscopy. Figure 10 It was found that its reflection spectrum exhibits a series of interference fringes with significant periodicity, and these interference fringes at θ i The range of (incident angle) is generally present from 0° to 60°, and with θ i As the wavelength increases, the interference fringes gradually shift towards shorter wavelengths, exhibiting clear angle-resolved characteristics. The solvothermal annealed film displays typical one-dimensional photonic crystal properties. In contrast, other films of PLG-Cz do not show periodic interference fringes; instead, they exhibit random peak shapes and lack angle-dependent spectral shift characteristics. The reflectivity in the microsphere film arises solely from disordered light scattering caused by the rough surface (it should be noted that during testing, areas with rainbow fringes should not be selected, as this results in uniform thickness interference due to extreme film thickness inhomogeneity, preventing the presence of layered structures). The effective refractive index of PLG-Cz is: n eff = 1.754 (λ = 745–603 nm), 1.805 (λ = 609–550 nm), 1.858 (λ = 559–508 nm), and 1.931 (λ = 519–474 nm), where, when λ = 483.58–437.61 nm, n eff=2.01, almost reaching the highest level for conjugated polymers (n≈2). These results indicate that the solvothermal annealed film possesses a high refractive index, and this n... eff The value is higher than that of polyfluorene films with β-phase (refractive index (n) = 1.7~1.8), so PLG-Cz can achieve high-efficiency LED and ASE emission by modulating photon confinement and population inversion.

[0143] This invention fabricates a hole-dominated device (ITO / PEDOT:PSS / Polymer / MoO3 / Al) to study the transmission capability of PLG-Cz. Figure 11 Spin-coated film devices of PG-Cz and PLG-Cz were prepared using toluene solution. For electric field E... 1 / 2 In 700-1100 (V cm) -1 ) 1 / 2 Within the specified range, the hole mobility of both polymers is at 10. -6 ~10 -5 cm 2 V -1 s -1 Among them, PLG-Cz exhibited the highest hole mobility at 948 (V cm⁻¹). -1 ) 1 / 2 At that time, the carrier mobility was 6.4 × 10⁻⁶. -6 cm 2 V - 1 s -1 This high hole mobility suggests that PLG-Cz may possess excellent electroluminescence properties. At 707 (V cm⁻¹) -1 ) 1 / 2 At that time, the hole mobility of PLG-Cz was about 2.2 times that of PG-Cz, which indicates that the lattice-based conjugated structure design helps to improve carrier mobility.

[0144] To investigate its efficiency in a practical device (PLED), an undoped solution-processed device was fabricated, with the device structure from bottom to top as follows: ITO / PEDOT:PSS (40nm) / PLG-Cz (40nm) / TPBi (40nm) / LiF (1nm) / Al (100nm).

[0145] In electroluminescence (EL) spectroscopy, spin-coated PLEDs exhibit an EL peak at 428 nm and display low-energy emission, resulting in poor color purity. Figure 12 (a)). In contrast, the EL spectrum of the PLG-Cz self-assembled PLED exhibits stable deep blue emission and high color purity. The spin-coated PLED has an on-time of approximately 6.2 V and a maximum luminance of 364.8 cd·m. -2The maximum current efficiency is 0.50 cd·A. -1 The maximum power efficiency is 0.18 lm·W. -1 Meanwhile, compared to spin-coated PLEDs, the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of the self-assembled device increased from 0.27% to 0.48%. Figure 12 In (b), the efficiency roll-off was effectively suppressed. Therefore, this self-assembly shows a significant improvement in electroluminescence efficiency, which may be due to the mesoscale order driven by nanolattice structure, resulting in lower optical loss.

[0146] One-dimensional photonic crystal films (with reflection spectra satisfying the Bragg-Snell diffraction equation) were fabricated using a solvothermal annealing method. The optical waveguide properties of the photonic crystal film demonstrate its ability to effectively guide light propagation within the material, increasing the external quantum efficiency (EQE) of PLEDs from 0.27% to 0.48% and suppressing efficiency roll-off. Furthermore, the waveguide properties of PLG-Cz, combined with its spontaneous emission characteristics, offer possibilities for realizing high-performance laser devices. These research results not only contribute to enhancing the status of PLG-Cz in the field of optoelectronics but also provide new directions and possibilities for the development of future organic optoelectronic devices.
