Rational design of methacrylate monomers containing oxadiazole moieties for single‐layer organic light emitting devices

Methacrylate derived monomers functionalized with pendant oxadiazole moieties were synthesized and copolymerized with carbazole containing monomers to form polymers with electron and hole transporting fragments in the same molecule. Substituents on the oxidazole moiety were varied with the purpose of bandgap tuning and performance optimization when employed in single‐layer organic light emitting devices (OLED). Quantum mechanical calculations of the HOMO‐LUMO levels of the oxidazole derivatives were used to down‐select promising candidates for chemical synthesis and testing in single‐layer OLEDs. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Peculiarities of resonant interaction in paired impurity centers of 2-fluoronaphthalene in naphthalene

Abstract

Fluorescence and absorption spectra of the 2-fluoronaphthalene admixtures in naphthalene were studied at low temperature (T?=?4.2 К). Two types of pairwise impurity centers were formed at admixture concentrations of more than 1?wt%. Polarization of absorption bands was detected; these spectra were determined by resonance interactions between molecules of the impurity center. Resonant splitting of electronic levels for the translationally nonequivalent molecules in the unit cell of the naphthalene crystal was analyzed for the case, when one molecule was in the similar phase with the incident light wave and the other one was in antiphase.
