Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of energy
If conventional phosphorescent materials are used in OLED, then luminous efficiency is improved, but lifetime is shortened
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the molecular weight parameter of the host material to greater than 350 g/mol, which fundamentally alters the material properties to achieve both high luminous efficiency and extended lifetime, resolving the trade-off between these two parameters
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs composite host materials comprising multiple compounds with specific molecular weights and structures, creating a synergistic system that maintains high luminous efficiency while significantly extending device lifetime through improved thermal and electrochemical stability
2Stability of the object's composition
If host material with high molecular weight is used, then thermal stability is improved, but ease of deposition is worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The patent optimizes the molecular weight parameter to a specific range (greater than 350 g/mol) that balances thermal stability requirements with deposition feasibility, ensuring materials can be effectively deposited while maintaining high thermal stability
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces specific functional groups and molecular structures at particular positions within the host material molecules, creating local regions with optimized properties that facilitate deposition while the overall molecular weight ensures thermal stability
3Ease of manufacture
