1Reliability
If a polymer compound obtained by polymerization of 2,7-bis(4-methyl-4'-bromo-diphenylamino)-9,9-dioctylfluorene is used, then the device can operate as an organic EL device, but the hole injection property is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent modifies the chemical structure of the fluorene-based polymer by changing parameters such as substituents on the diphenylamino groups (introducing various R groups including alkyl, aryl, heterocyclic groups) and adjusting the polymerization degree, to optimize hole injection properties while maintaining manufacturability
Solution Approach 2:
The invention creates composite polymer structures combining fluorene backbone with modified diphenylamino side chains, where the combination of specific R groups (such as bulky alkyl groups or electron-donating aryl groups) with the fluorene core produces synergistic effects that improve hole injection beyond what single substituents could achieve
