Complex 1 (7.4 wt %), trimethylolpropane, carbamate with xylylene diisocyanate (available from Aldrich Chemicals Inc., catalog number 408778), trimethylolpropane (available from Aldrich Chemicals Inc., catalog number 239747), and tetraethylammonium hexafluorophosphate (9.2 wt %) were mixed in acetonitrile (1 mL) and sonicated for 1 h and then spin coated on an ITO plate (0.8 × 2.5 cm). After thermal curing at 50 °C under vacuum for 1 h, a film with a thickness of 0.58 μm was formed.
