For more than two decades a great deal of research effort worldwide has been devoted to the development of light-emitting and transport materials for organic light-emitting diode (OLED) devices. Despite the tremendous progress achieved to date, the preparation of highly efficient and long-lived multilayer solution processed OLED devices still has challenges that need to be overcome. Some of the most important issues encountered in this area are thermal and morphological stability, solubility and film-forming ability of materials employed. We will discuss our recent progress in designing polymeric hole transport materials for the use in solution processed OLED devices that combine the high OLED device performance demonstrated by small-molecules with the solution processing advantages offered by polymers.
