  • HOLE TRANSPORT POLYMERS
    Publication number: 20080097076
    Abstract: Cross-linkable hole transport polymers comprising at least one first monomer comprised of an arylamine and at least one second monomer comprised of a fluorene, carbazole, diphenylsilicon or fused heterocyclic derivative are provided. In some embodiments, the hole transport polymers also comprise at least one third monomer, different from the second monomer, and comprised of a fluorene, carbazole, diphenylsilicon or fused heterocyclic derivative. Electronic devices made with the polymeric materials are also provided.

  • Compositions comprising novel compounds and electronic devices made with such compositions
    Publication number: 20050187411
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel compounds and compositions comprising novel oligomers and polymers, and electronic device comprising at least one layer containing the compositions. The novel oligomers and polymers can be solubilized, and can be used in solution to form electronic devices. The compounds can function as monomers, and copolymers can be formed from such monomers, such copolymers comprising, as polymerized units, a plurality of units of the compounds.
