1Productivity

If conventional organic materials are used for charge transport, then device structure is simple, but charge transport is imbalanced and luminous efficiency is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveluminous efficiencyVSAvoidcharge transport balance
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs composite organic compounds containing both electron-transporting and hole-transporting moieties within the same molecular structure. This composite approach enables bipolar charge transport capability, allowing the material to simultaneously transport both electrons and holes effectively, thereby resolving the charge transport imbalance issue while maintaining device structure simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

Solution Approach 2:

The invented organic compounds serve multiple functions: they act as both electron transport materials and hole transport materials within the same material system. This multi-functionality eliminates the need for separate electron-transporting and hole-transporting layers, simplifying device structure while achieving balanced charge transport and improved luminous efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Productivity

If organic materials with high charge transport capability are used, then device efficiency improves, but material crystallinity increases leading to reduced device stability

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevice efficiencyVSAvoiddevice stability
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces bulky substituent groups (such as adamantyl,金刚烷基, or large aromatic groups) at specific positions of the organic compound molecules. These local structural modifications create steric hindrance that prevents close molecular packing and crystallization, thereby maintaining amorphous state while preserving the core charge transport capability. This local quality adjustment resolves the contradiction between efficiency and stability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent modifies molecular parameters by adjusting the steric bulk, molecular weight, and structural rigidity of the organic compounds. By changing these parameters, particularly increasing the steric hindrance through bulky substituents, the material maintains high charge transport efficiency while suppressing crystallinity formation, thus improving device stability without sacrificing efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
