Hole-transport photoelectric materials are a special class of semiconductor materials characterized by their ability to efficiently transport holes. In the process of photoelectric conversion, the efficiency of hole transport directly determines the performance of the photoelectric material.
Organic hole‑transport materials containing triphenylamine moieties are among the most widely used functional media in the field of optoelectronic materials. Their core structure features a nitrogen atom at the center, with three aryl groups attached, and their electron‑rich conjugated system endows them with an intrinsic affinity for holes. The triphenylamine units adopt a nonplanar propeller‑like geometry, which effectively suppresses excessive intermolecular π–π stacking, thereby minimizing crystallization issues. When further modified with flexible side chains, these materials exhibit excellent solution processability, making them well suited to wet‑process techniques such as spin coating and spray coating—ideal for fabricating large‑area flexible devices. By fine‑tuning the molecular architecture, the highest occupied molecular orbital energy level can be aligned with a favorable energy‑level gradient relative to most photoactive layers, reducing interfacial barriers to hole injection. Moreover, their inherent electron‑blocking properties help limit nonradiative recombination of excitons at the transport‑layer interfaces, thus decreasing internal charge‑carrier losses. At present, typical triphenylamine‑based hole‑transport derivatives have been deployed on a commercial scale in applications ranging from perovskite solar cells and organic light‑emitting diodes to organic photodetectors. Many studies have introduced electron‑donating substituents, fused‑ring units, or crosslinking groups into the triphenylamine scaffold, progressively raising the glass transition temperature and enhancing the long-term thermal stability of devices. In recent years, un-doped, chemically modified triphenylamine materials have advanced rapidly, addressing the common drawbacks of conventional doped systems—namely hygroscopicity and relatively high cost—and offering additional design options for optoelectronic devices across diverse applications. Nevertheless, there remains considerable room for further exploration in the realm of tailored molecular engineering.
