Design of new anchored p-dopants for high power efficiency OLEDs
Organic Light Emitting Materials and Devices XIII(2009)
摘要
Conductivity doping of charge transporting layers is becoming increasingly attractive for improving power efficiency in
OLEDs. However, the number of commercially available organic molecular p-dopants is limited. The electron
acceptor 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8,-tetracyanoquinodimethane (F4-TCNQ) is the most utilized p-dopant. F4-TCNQ can
be used as a dopant for most hole transporting materials (HTM), but it is very volatile, which makes it difficult for
vacuum processing, and has a low sticking coefficient. Here we present the design of novel anchored molecular dopants
based on the TCNQ core. We first review how the reduction potential of TCNQ core is affected by substitution with
alkyl groups of different electronic properties. Electron donating groups have negative effect on the reduction potential
of the acceptor. However, attaching electron withdrawing groups such as halogens counteracts the effect of electron
donating groups. Using gas phase theoretical calculations we determined that trifluorinated TCNQ can be anchored
through a σ-coupled alkyl chain to an inert molecular anchor without sacrificing the electron affinity.
