Structural Geometry Variation of 1,4-Naphthalene-Based Co-Polymers to Tune the Device Performance of PVK-Host-Based OLEDs

Structural Geometry Variation of 1,4-Naphthalene-Based Co-Polymers to Tune the Device Performance of PVK-Host-Based OLEDs

Blue-color-emitting organic semiconductors are of significance for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). In this study, through Suzuki coupling polymerization, three 1,4-naphthalene-based copolymers—namely, PNP(1,4)-PT, PNP(1,4)-TF, and PNP(1,4)-ANT—were designed and synthesized. The variation of c...
