A Unique Blend of 2-Fluorenyl-2-anthracene and 2-Anthryl-2-anthracence Showing White Emission and High Charge Mobility
White-light-emitting materials with high mobility are necessary for organic white-light-emitting transistors, which can be used for self-driven OLED displays or OLED lighting. In this study, we combined two materials with similar structures—2-fluorenyl-2-anthracene (FlAnt) with blue emission and 2-anthryl-2-anthracence (2A) with greenish-yellow emission—to fabricate OLED devices, which showed unusual solid-state white-light emission with the CIE coordinates (0.33, 0.34) at 10 V. The similar crystal structures ensured that the OTFTs based on mixed FlAnt and 2A showed high mobility of 1.56 cm2V?1s?1. This simple method provides new insight into the design of high-performance white-emitting transistor materials and structures.
Oligo(2,6-anthrylene)s: Acene-oligomer approach for organic field-effect transistors
Oligo(2,6-anthrylene)s 1 and their dihexyl derivatives have been synthesized by Suzuki coupling using palladium catalysts. Organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) of these anthracene oligomers exhibited FET activity, and high hole mobilities up to 0.18 c
