Abstract
The invention is directed to oxidized charge transport materials having hole transport capability in organic light emitting device (OLEDs). A charge transport compound including more than two triarylamine groups, or including at least one triarylamine group and at least one fluorene group, is partly complexed with an oxidant, such as a Lewis acid, preferably present in an amount between 0.2 and 20 percent by weight. The resulting charge transport materials exhibit good hole transport characteristics and film forming properties.
