Abstract: Two hole-transporting materials containing carbazole moieties with TPD- and NPB-like structures, 4,4'-bis[N-(4-carbazolylphenyl)-N-phenylamino]biphenyl(CPB) and 4,4'-bis[N-(4-carbazolylphenyl)-N-(1-naphthyl)amino]biphenyl(CNB), were synthesized via a modified Ullmann reaction. The resulting compounds were thermally stable with high glass transition temperatures ranging from 145 to 147 ℃ and possessed a good electrochemical reversibility and hole-transporting properties. Typical double-layer device evaluation with the structure ITO/CPB(40 nm)/Alq3(60 nm)/LiF/Al demonstrated that they were promising hole-transporting materials with a current efficiency of 5.25 cd/A and a power efficiency of 2.00 lm/W.
