Multilayered organic electroluminescent device using a novel starburst molecule, 4,4′,4″-tris(3-methylphenylphenylamino)triphenylamine, as a hole transport material

Abstract
A novel π‐conjugated starburst molecule, 4,4’,4‘‐tris(3‐methylphenylphenylamino)triphenylamine (m‐MTDATA), which forms a stable amorphous glass, functions as an excellent hole transport material for organic electroluminescent devices. An electroluminescent device consisting of double hole transport layers of m‐MTDATA and 4,4’‐bis(3‐methylphenylphenylamino)biphenyl and an emitting layer of tris(8‐quinolinolato)aluminum exhibits a high luminance efficiency and significant durability.
