Abstract

A series of D–A naphthalimide-substituted fluorene derivatives have been designed to explore their optical, electronic, and charge transport properties as charge transport and/or luminescent materials for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). The frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs) analysis turned out that the vertical electronic transitions of absorption and emission are characterized as intramolecular charge transfer (ICT). The calculated results show that their optical and electronic properties are affected by the substituent groups in fluorene moieties. Our results suggest that all selected candidates are promising as luminescent materials for OLEDs. In addition, all derivatives can be used as promising hole and electron transport materials while derivatives with dibenzothiophene fragment can be used as hole transport material only for OLEDs.
