Low threshold amplified spontaneous emission and ambipolar charge transport in non-volatile liquid fluorene derivatives

Chem Commun (Camb). 2016 Feb 21;52(15):3103-6. doi: 10.1039/c5cc08331a.

Abstract

Highly fluorescent non-volatile fluidic fluorene derivatives functionalized with siloxane chains were synthesized and used in monolithic solvent-free liquid organic semiconductor distributed feedback lasers. The photoluminescence quantum yield values, the amplified spontaneous emission thresholds and the ambipolar charge carrier mobilities demonstrate that this class of materials is extremely promising for organic fluidic light-emitting and lasing devices.
