1Power
If conventional materials are used in the hole transport region, then the device structure is simple, but the driving voltage is high and efficiency is low
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies parameter changes by modifying the chemical structure of hole transport materials through specific molecular designs (Formula 1 with various substituents R1-R6, Ar1-Ar6 groups). This structural parameter optimization enables lower driving voltage and higher efficiency without fundamentally changing the device architecture.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs composite materials by combining the polycyclic compound of Formula 1 with other functional materials in the hole transport region. This composite approach leverages the synergistic effects of different materials to achieve improved electrical properties while maintaining device simplicity.
