Two new POSS materials with an emissive Ir(iii) complex and carbazole units were successfully synthesized. Their photophysical and electrochemical properties, thermal stabilities and solution processed light-emitting devices were investigated.
A novel multifunctional material TPA-BPhPO has been designed and synthesized to explore its use as the blue emitter and the host material for solution-processed blue electrofluorescent and green electrophosphorescent devices.
