Noncovalent functionalization of boron nitride nanotubes using poly(2,7-carbazole)s

To fully actualize the potential of boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs), it is necessary to overcome the inherent insolubility of this nanomaterial. Drawing on the successes realized in the analogous carbon nanotube field, noncovalent functionalization with conjugated polymers offers a simple, scalable route toward the production of stable dispersions of BNNTs. 2,7-carbazoles were chosen as our core monomer based on density functional theory (DFT) predictions, which suggest superior interactions with BNNTs when compared to fluorene-BNNT interactions. Homo poly(2,7-carbazole)s and copolymers with fluorenes were synthesized and used successfully to disperse BNNTs into organic solvents. Thermogravimetric analysis and atomic force microscopy results confirm the proficiency of these polymers to disperse large amounts (> 80% by weight) of individualized BNNTs. Analysis of absorbance data shows that the choice of solvent is critical, with stability enhanced in THF compared to CHCl₃ due to the more efficient planarization of polymer chains on the surface of BNNTs, particularly for the homopolymers. The utility of these highly-soluble poly(2,7-carbazole)-BNNT complexes for printed electronics and transparent composites was demonstrated by the fabrication of simple capacitors and incorporation into poly(methyl methacrylate) composites, respectively.

Synthesis and properties of nitrogen‐linked poly(2,7‐carbazole)s as hole‐transport material for organic light emitting diodes

A novel class of carbazole polymers, nitrogen‐linked poly(2,7‐carbazole)s, was synthesized by polycondensation between two bifunctional monomers using the palladium‐catalyzed amination reaction. The polymers were characterized by ¹H NMR, Infrared, Gel permeation chromatography, and MALDI‐TOF MS and it was revealed that the combination of the monomer structures is important for producing high molecular weight polymers. Thermal analysis indicated a good thermal stability with high glass transition temperatures, e.g., 138 °C for the higher molecular weight polymer P2 . To pursue the application possibilities of these polymers, their optical properties and energy levels were investigated by UV‐Vis absorption and fluorescence spectra as well as their electrochemical characteristics. Although the blue light emission was indeed observed for all polymers in solution, the quantum yields were very low and the solid films were not fluorescent. On the other hand, the HOMO levels of the polymers estimated from the onset potentials for the first oxidation in the solid thin films were relatively high in the range of ?5.12 to ?5.20 eV. Therefore, light emitting diodes employing these polymers as a hole‐transport layer and iridium(III) complex as a triplet emitter were fabricated. The device of the nitrogen‐linked poly(2,7‐carbazole) P3 with p,p′‐biphenyl spacer, which has a higher HOMO level and a higher molecular weight, showed a much better performance than the device of P2 with m‐phenylene spacer. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and characterization of blue light-emitting poly(aryl ether)s containing pyrimidine-incorporated oligofluorene pendants with bipolar feature

Novel blue light-emitting poly(aryl ether)s comprising of bipolar oligofluorene pendants as chromophores have been designed and synthesized,in which pyrimidine and arylamine moieties are utilized as the electron acceptor and electron donor,respectively.Through varying π bridge length from monofluorene to bifluorene and end-cappers from hydrogen to carbazole and diphenylamine,the emission color of the resulting polymers covers from deep blue to greenish blue,and their HOMO and LUMO levels can be modulated to facilitate charge injection to improve the device performance.Polymer lightemitting diodes(PLEDs) are fabricated with the device structure of ITO/poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonic acid)(PEDOT:PSS)(50 nm)/polymer(80 nm)/Ca(10 nm)/Al(200 nm).Among these polymers,P2Cz5F-Py with bifluorene bridge and carbazole end-capper shows excellent trade-off between the efficiency and emission wavelength,having a peak luminous efficiency as high as 1.26 cd/A and Commission Internationale de L’Eclairage(CIE) coordinates of(0.17,0.17).     

Toward a rational design of poly(2,7-carbazole) derivatives for solar cells

On the basis of theoretical models and calculations, several alternating polymeric structures have been investigated to develop optimized poly(2,7-carbazole) derivatives for solar cell applications. Selected low band gap alternating copolymers have been obtained via a Suzuki coupling reaction. A good correlation between DFT theoretical calculations performed on model compounds and the experimental HOMO, LUMO, and band gap energies of the corresponding polymers has been obtained. This study reveals that the alternating copolymer HOMO energy level is mainly fixed by the carbazole moiety, whereas the LUMO energy level is mainly related to the nature of the electron-withdrawing comonomer. However, solar cell performances are not solely driven by the energy levels of the materials. Clearly, the molecular weight and the overall organization of the polymers are other important key parameters to consider when developing new polymers for solar cells. Preliminary measurements have revealed hole mobilities of about 1 x 10(-3) cm2 x V(-1) x s(-1) and a power conversion efficiency (PCE) up to 3.6%. Further improvements are anticipated through a rational design of new symmetric low band gap poly(2,7-carbazole) derivatives.     

High‐efficiency,electrophosphorescent polymers with porphyrin–platinum complexes in the conjugated backbone: Synthesis and device performance

A series of soluble, conjugated, electrophosphorescent copolymers with (meso‐tetraphenylporphyrinato‐κ⁴N)platinum(II) (PtTPP) complexes incorporated into the polymer main chain were synthesized through the copolymerization of narrow‐band‐gap monomeric porphyrin–platinum(II) complexes and wide‐band‐gap dialkyl‐substituted fluorene monomers by a modified Suzuki coupling reaction. The study of the photoluminescence decay indicated that poly[2,7‐(9,9‐dioctylfluorene)‐co‐2,12‐((meso‐tetraphenylporphyrinato‐κ⁴N)platinum(II))] (PFO–PtTPP) was a triplet emitter. The electroluminescence emission from the fluorene segment was completely quenched for copolymers with PtTPP contents as low as 0.5 mol %. The PFO–PtTPP copolymers emitted deep red light. The device based on the porphyrin–platinum(II) copolymer PFO–5PtTPP (with 5 mol % PtTPP in the copolymer) showed the highest external quantum efficiency of 1.95% with an emission peak at 684 nm in an indium tin oxide/poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene)/polyvinylcarbazole (PVK)/70:30 (w/w) PFO–5PtTPP: 2‐(biphenyl‐4‐yl)‐5‐(4‐tert‐butylphenyl)‐1,3,4‐oxadiazole/Ba/Al device configuration. In comparison with the PFO–PtTPP copolymers synthesized via a postpolymerization metalation route, copolymerization from Pt metal complexes proved to be a more efficient synthetic route for high‐efficiency electrophosphorescent polymers. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Enhanced photovoltaic performance of quasi-solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells via incorporating quaternized ammonium iodide-containing conjugated polymer into PEO gel electrolytes

In this study, a series of gel electrolytes prepared from blends of alternating conjugated polymer electrolytes (CPEs)/poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) were developed for use in quasi-solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The alternating CPEs poly[(N-(3′-((N,N-dimethyl)-N-ethylammonium)propyl)-3,6-carbazole)-alt-(9,9-dioctyl-2,7-fluorene)]diiodide, poly[(N-(3′-((N,N-dimethyl)-N-ethylammonium)propyl)-3,6-carbazole)-alt-(9,9-bis(2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl)-2,7-fluorene)]diiodide (MPCFO-E), and poly[(N-(3′-((N,N-dimethyl)-N-ethylammonium)propyl)-3,6-carbazole)-alt-(siloxane substituted-2,7-fluorene)]diiodide (MPCFS-E) were synthesized through copolymerization of carbazole units (featuring quaternized ammonium iodide groups) and fluorene units featuring flexible side chains (9,9-dioctylfluorene, ethylene oxide-substituted fluorene, and siloxane-substituted fluorene, respectively). The MPCFO-E/PEO-based and MPCFS-E/PEO-based DSSCs exhibited lower electrochemical resistances, superior photovoltaic (PV) properties, and improved PV stabilities relative to those of the corresponding PEO-based DSSC. Among the studied systems, the DSSC based on the MPCFO-E (0.5 wt.%)/PEO blend electrolyte exhibited the best PV performance, with a short current density of 4.97 mA cm⁻² and a photoenergy conversion efficiency of 1.17%.
