New aromatic poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole)s were synthesized having excellent film forming properties due to their solubility in common organic solvents. The investigated new polyoxadiazoles can be used as emission material in single layer LED. The poly- oxadiazoles show an emission in the range of blue to yellow light. The external quantum efficiency as well as the turn-on voltage of the devices are influenced when blends of the polyoxadiazole with hole transport materials are used.
New substituted 2,5-diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles are reported as luminescent materials in light emitting diodes LEDs . The investigated new oxadiazoles show efficient blue and green emission in single layer devices. The combination with a hole transporting and red emitting polythiophene led to a white emission with higher quantum efficiency (QE).
A series of new poly-1,3,4-oxadiazoles has been synthesized by polycondensation reaction of hydrazine sulfate with a mixture of a dicarboxylic acid containing unsaturated bonds and a dicarboxylic acid containing silicon, by using methanesulfonic acid/phosphorus pentoxide as a reaction medium. These polymers were highly thermostable but they were only soluble in strong inorganic acids such as sulfuric or methanesulfonic ones. An alternative way was followed by using the corresponding dihydrazides containing unsaturated bonds and the corresponding diacid chloride containing silicon that reacted in N-methylpyrrolidinone (NMP) to give soluble silicon-containing unsaturated polyhydrazides, which were cyclodehydrated either by thermal or chemical treatment to give the corresponding polyoxadiazoles. Very thin coatings of polyhydrazides and polyoxadiazoles were deposited onto silicon wafers and they showed a very smooth surface, free of pinholes, when studied by atomic force microscopy (AFM). Some polyoxadiazole films showed strong blue photoluminescence.
