Organophosphorus Compounds in Organic Electronics

Abstract

This Minireview describes recent advances of organophosphorus compounds as opto-electronic materials in the field of organic electronics. The progress of (hetero-) phospholes, unsaturated phosphanes, and trivalent and pentavalent phosphanes since 2010 is covered. The described applications of organophosphorus materials range from single molecule sensors, field effect transistors, organic light emitting diodes, to polymeric materials for organic photovoltaic applications.

Keywords: OLED; organic electronics; organophosphorus; phosphine oxide; phosphole; phosphorus.
