Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs composite organic materials with specific molecular structures (Chemical Formulas 1 and 2) that combine multiple functional groups (carbazole, triazine, dibenzothiophene, phenyl) to achieve both high efficiency and long lifespan. This composite material approach resolves the contradiction by integrating multiple performance-enhancing features into a unified material system, thereby improving reliability without requiring complex device architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

Solution Approach 2:

The patent modifies molecular parameters such as HOMO/LUMO energy levels, charge mobility, and molecular weight through systematic variation of substituents (R1-R7 groups) and structural parameters (m1-m7 values). By optimizing these parameters within defined ranges, the invention achieves enhanced device lifespan and efficiency while maintaining manageable material complexity.

If organic materials with enhanced efficiency are used, then device performance improves, but material stability may deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces different substituent groups (R1-R7) at specific positions in the molecular structure, where each substituent provides localized functional properties. For example, carbazole groups enhance hole transport, triazine groups adjust energy levels, and dibenzothiophene groups improve electron transport. This local optimization allows the material to achieve high efficiency while maintaining overall stability through balanced functional distribution.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent systematically adjusts molecular parameters including energy levels (HOMO/LUMO), charge mobility, and molecular weight by varying substituent types and positions. By optimizing these parameters within specific ranges, the invention achieves enhanced efficiency while maintaining material stability, resolving the contradiction between performance and durability.

Inventive Principle:

3Productivity

If complex molecular structures are designed to improve charge transport, then efficiency increases, but manufacturing difficulty increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the complex molecular structure into modular functional units (carbazole, triazine, dibenzothiophene, phenyl groups) that can be independently selected and combined. This segmentation allows for systematic optimization of charge transport properties while maintaining relatively simple synthetic routes, as each module can be introduced through standard organic synthesis techniques. The modular approach balances structural complexity with manufacturability.
