Tetraaryl‐Substituted Benzo[1,2‐b:4,5‐b′]dipyrroles: Synthesis, Properties, and Applications to Hole‐Injection Materials in OLED Devices

Authors:

Abstract
Yes, HIMs can! A series of 2,3,6,7‐tetraarylbenzo[1,2‐b:4,5‐b′]dipyrroles (BDPs) were synthesized using zinc‐mediated double cyclization. Organic light‐emitting diodes consisting of BDP:PPB as a hole‐injection layer could be driven at a lower voltage than a PEDOT:PSS‐based device. Correlation of the IP values with the driving voltage shed some light on the mechanism of hole‐injection processes. magnified image
