Solution Approach 1:

The patent modifies the molecular structure parameters of the light emitting material by introducing specific substituents (carbazole groups, phenyl groups, and fluorine atoms) at defined positions in the polycyclic compound framework. This structural parameter change optimizes the HOMO-LUMO energy levels and improves charge carrier transport properties, directly enhancing luminous efficiency while the stable polycyclic core structure ensures long operational lifespan

Solution Approach 2:

The patent employs composite material strategy by combining the polycyclic compound (Formula 1) with specific host materials and dopants in the light emitting layer. The compound is used at controlled concentrations (0.1-10 wt%) within a host matrix, creating a composite system that leverages the high efficiency of the dopant while the host material provides structural stability and extended lifespan through efficient energy transfer and reduced degradation
