ABSTRACT
We report an unusual thermal condensation of readily available tetracyanocyclopropanes to tetracyanosubstituted triazaphenalenes, which revealed interesting optoelectronic properties such as strongly pronounced solvatochromism and bright photoluminescence. Optical memory elements and organic light emitting diodes with a deep red electroluminescence were designed using triazaphenalenes, thus highlighting the potential of these compounds as materials for electronic applications.
ABSTRACT
We report the application of a statistical Suzuki-Miyaura polycondensation reaction for synthesis of a family of carbazole-fluorene-TTBTBTT terpolymers with tailored physical and optoelectronic properties. Organic bulk heterojunction solar cells based on the designed materials with optimal fluorene to carbazole ratios yielded reproducible power conversion efficiencies of 6.5-6.7%.
