Abstract:
After 20 years of development, significant progress has been made in the development of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), which can be fabricated via both vacuum deposition and solution processes. Recently, solution processed small molecular OLEDs are drawing more and more research attention, as such a technology combines advantages of the facile synthesis of small molecules and the low-cost solution process like polymers. In addition, small molecular materials can be more clearly gives the structure-activity relationships between the molecular structure and photoelectric properties. This review presents some recent developments in the design, synthesis and applications of organic solution-processable small materials, and discusses the challenge and solutions of achieving all-solution process small molecular OLEDs.
