Several strategies have been made to minimize intermolecular interactions of polyfluorenes, such as longer and branched side chains or bulky substituents, copolymerization techniques, dendrimer attachment, end-capping with bulky groups, cross-linking, oligomer and hyperbranched structure approaches. Among them hyperbranched structures are one of the most versatile and promising ways to develop electroluminescent polymers with diminished intermolecular interactions and added functional groups. In this dissertation, we synthesized a series of totally new tri-functional branching monomers for the preparation of copolyfluorenes, such as 3,4,5-tris(4-bromo- phenyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole (A), 3-(3,5-dibromophenyl)-5- (4-bromophenyl)-4-(4-(hexyloxy) phenyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole (B), 2,4,7-tris(bromo- methyl)-9,9-dihexyl-fluorene (D), 2,4,7- tris[methylene(triphenyl-phosphonium bromide)]-9,9-dihexylfluorene (E) and 2-bromo- 5,7-divinyl-9,9-dihexylfluorene (F). Furthermore, the corresponding bi-functional monomers: 3-(3-bromophenyl)-5-(4-bromophenyl)-4-(4-(hexyloxy)phenyl)-4H-1,2,4- triazole (C), 2,7-bis(bromomethyl)-9,9-dihexylfluorene (D’), 2,7-bis[methylene(triphenyl- phosphonium bromide)]-9,9-dihexylfluorene (E’) and 2-bromo-7-vinyl-9,9- dihexylfluorene (F’) were also synthesized for the preparation of model linear polyfluorenes. All hyperbranched polymers were synthesized conveniently via a one-step polymerization by A3 + A’2 + B2, A3 + B2, A3, and AB2 approaches. All monomers and polymers were identified by 1H NMR, FT-IR and elemental analysis. The thermal properties of these polymers were analyzed with thermogravimetric analysis. The optical, electrochemical and electroluminescent properties of these polymers were investigated in detail to elucidate the branched structure-property relationship.
In chapters 4~5, in order to suppress the interchain interaction, hyperbranched polyfluorenes HPFA (4%~22%) and HPFB (5%~13%) were polymerized by an A3 + A’2 + B2 approach via Suzuki coupling reaction. These polymers contain A (4~22 mol%) and B (4.8~13.3 mol%) as branch units. Model linear polyfluorenes LPFA0%, LPFB0% and LPFC (4%~13%) were also prepared for comparative studies. The hyperbranched polymers showed good solubility in common organic solvents such as CHCl3, toluene, and CH2Cl2 and exhibited excellent thermal stability with decomposition temperatures higher than 432oC. From optical absorption analysis, an interesting linear relationship between 1/λmax and 1/(1-ntriazole) were correlated for both HPFAs (4%~22%) and HPFBs (5%~13%), which was not observed in linear LPFC (4%~13%). The hyperbranched structures of HPFA4%~HPFA22% and HPFB13% suppress detrimental excimer formation (~550 nm) effectively during thermal annealing process. For HPFA6%~HPFA22%, however, a novel PL emission (~520 nm) was appeared after thermal annealing that had been attributed to complexes formed between triazole and pendant carbazole chromophores. The maximal brightness (current efficiency) of the electroluminescent devices (ITO/PEDOT:PSS/HPFB5%~HPFB13%/Ca/Al) was improved from 828 cd/m2 (0.19 cd/A) to 2054 cd/m2 (0.46 cd/A) with increasing triazole concentration. The results suggest that incorporation of aromatic 1,2,4-triazole branch units is effective in improving thermal stability and EL performance of polyfluorenes.
In chapters 6~8, another series of novel hyperbranched structures (polymers and oligomer) HPFV0.04~HPFV0.17, HPFPPV-oxa and HOFV were synthesized using D, E and F as branching monomers, respectively. The HPFV0.04~HPFV0.17 were prepared by an A3 approach via the Gilch reaction, while HPFPPV-oxa was prepared by an A3 + B2 approach using the Wittig reaction followed by end-capping with oxadiazole compound. The HOFV was prepared by an AB2 approach using the Heck reaction. Linear model polymers LPFV0.17, LPFPPV-oxa and LOFV were also prepared for comparison. An interesting linear relationship between degree of branch (DB) and feed concentration ratio had been correlated for HPFV0.04~HPFV0.17. The HPFPPV-oxa showed energy funnel effect and enhanced fluorescence efficiency owing to hyperbranched structure. Electrochemical results and semi-empirical MNDO calculation for HPFV0.04~HPFV0.17, HOFV and HPFPPV-oxa revealed that reduction started from the dendritic unit and oxadiazole compound, respectively. The cross-linkable terminal vinyl groups of HOFV led to cured HOFV-cured after thermal treatment, which was confirmed by IR, DSC, absorption spectra, NMR, AFM and SEM. Furthermore, the electroluminescent performance of the devices (ITO/PEDOT:PSS/polymer/Ca/Al) were investigated and correlated with hyperbranched structures.
