Definitions

• OLEDs Organic light emitting diodes
• the current commercial applications for OLEDs are primarily used for display applications and are composed of small molecules as the active materials.
• Manufacture of the small-molecule-based OLEDs relies heavily on vapor deposition processes.
• the next big application space for OLEDs is general lighting.
• low cost manufacturing like a roll-to-roll, newspaper-like printing process is needed.
• Such roll- to-roll manufacturing employs solvent-based processes and thus small-molecules are replaced by good film-forming polymers. Processes that use successive solvent-based deposition steps suffer from the potential problem that the solvent used to apply layer two will remove polymer layer one.
• the first polymer based OLEDs were simple three-layer devices, limited to a cathode, an anode and an emissive layer, so as to minimize the issue of polymer removal by solvent. Naturally there has been a need to improve device performance thus necessitating the need for additional layers in the OLED.
• a second strategy for preparation of OLEDs with multiple layers deposited by solvents is to render each layer insoluble prior to application of the next layer.
• the second strategy can be divided into two types.
• a solvent soluble layer can be combined with a cross-linkable monomer like an acrylate.
• the desired layer and monomer is then subjected to conditions that cross-link the monomer, typically UV- irradiation.
• the result of the irradiation of the polymer layer and acrylate monomer is formation of an interpenetrating layer, rendering the solvent-deposited layer insoluble.
• a more elegant way to render a solvent-deposited layer insoluble is to custom- synthesize the layer of choice so that it contains a cross-linkable site; no added monomers are necessary. After deposition of the solvent-deposited layer, heat or light renders the layer insoluble.
