Abstract
The present invention relates to polymers comprising repeating unit(s) of the formula (I), and their use in electronic devices. The polymers according to the invention have excellent solubility in organic solvents and excellent film-forming properties. In addition, high charge carrier mobilities and high temperature stability of the emission color are observed, if the polymers according to the invention are used in polymer light emitting diodes (PLEDs).
Claims13
A polymer comprising repeating unit(s) of the following formula
- R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 and R6 are independently of each other hydrogen, F, SiR100R101R102, or an organic substituent, or
- R1 and R2, R3 and R4, and/or any of the substituents R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 and/or R6, which are adjacent to each other, together form an aromatic, or heteroaromatic ring, or ring system, which can optionally be substituted,
- m is 0, or an integer of 1, or 2,
- n1 and n2 are 0, or an integer 1, or 2,
- R100R101R102are independently of each other C1-C18alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C6-C18aryl, and
- Ar1 and A2 are each independently of each other a substituted or unsubstituted arylene, or heteroarylene group,
- with the proviso that at least one of R1, R2, R3 and R4 is different from H, and
- wherein the polymers have a weight average molecular weight of 2,000 Daltons or greater.
