Synthesis of new hole-transporting molecular glasses with pendant carbazolyl-based hydrazone moieties

Abstract Synthesis, thermal, optical and photoelectrical properties of new hole-transporting molecular glasses with pendant carbazolyl-based hydrazone moieties, linked by aliphatic linking fragments, are reported. Electron photoemission spectra of the synthesized derivatives have been recorded and the ionization potentials have been established. The hole drift mobility values in compositions of the designed structures with bisphenol Z polycarbonate exceed 10 −5  cm 2  V −1  s −1 at an electric field 10 6  V/cm.
