Development of novel organic compounds represented by General Formulas (G0), (G1), (G2), and (G3), which involve specific aromatic and nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic rings bonded through boron, oxygen, and sulfur atoms to control emission wavelengths, suppress conjugated system expansion, and enhance heat resistance, allowing for efficient light emission with high color purity and simplified synthesis.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Use of energy by moving object
If polycyclic compounds are used in light-emitting layers to achieve high emission efficiency, then emission efficiency is improved, but emission wavelength control and color purity deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent modifies the molecular structure parameters of polycyclic compounds by introducing specific substituents (Ar1-Ar4 aromatic rings or nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic rings) at controlled positions. This allows tuning of the conjugated system length and electronic properties, thereby controlling emission wavelength while maintaining high emission efficiency. The substituent positions and types are precisely adjusted to achieve desired color purity without sacrificing efficiency.
2Length of moving object
If conjugated system expansion is promoted to achieve longer emission wavelength, then emission wavelength is increased, but color purity and spectrum narrowing deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces different types of aromatic rings (Ar1-Ar4) with specific local electronic properties at different positions of the polycyclic core. By selecting aromatic rings with appropriate electron-donating or electron-withdrawing characteristics and placing them at specific locations, the emission wavelength is extended locally without causing excessive broadening of the emission spectrum, thus maintaining color purity.
3Use of energy by moving object
If molecular structure is made more complex to achieve better light emission properties, then emission performance is improved, but synthesis complexity and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the complex light-emitting molecule into modular segments: a polycyclic core structure and separate aromatic ring substituents (Ar1-Ar4). Each segment can be synthesized independently using standard organic synthesis methods, and then assembled through coupling reactions. This modular approach simplifies the overall synthesis process compared to constructing the entire complex molecule in a single sequence, reducing both synthesis complexity and cost while maintaining the desired light emission performance.
