Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a compound, a material for an organic electroluminescent device, an organic electroluminescent device, and an electronic device comprising said organic electroluminescent device. Background Technology

[0002] Generally, an organic electroluminescent device (hereinafter referred to as an "organic EL device") is composed of an anode, a cathode, and an organic layer sandwiched between the anode and the cathode. When a voltage is applied between the two electrodes, electrons from the cathode side and holes from the anode side are injected into the light-emitting region. The injected electrons and holes recombine in the light-emitting region to create an excited state, and light is emitted when the excited state returns to the ground state. Therefore, the development of materials that efficiently transport electrons or holes to the light-emitting region and facilitate the recombination of electrons and holes is important for obtaining high-performance organic EL devices.

[0007] As a result of repeated research on the performance of organic EL devices containing compounds described in patent documents 1 to 4, the inventors discovered that organic EL devices containing compounds represented by the following formula (1) have improved performance.

[0008] In one aspect, the present invention provides a compound represented by the following formula (1).

[0009] [Chemical Formula 1]

[0010]

[0011] [Essence (1),

[0012] N * is the central nitrogen atom.

[0013] R 1 ~R 8 Each is independently a hydrogen atom or an unsubstituted phenyl group.

[0014] R that is not a single bond 1 ~R 8 Two adjacent rings selected from may combine to form one or more substituted or unsubstituted benzene rings, or may not combine to form benzene rings.

[0015] However, R 1 and R 4 One selected from is a single bond that combines with *a.

[0016] R a and R bEach is independently a hydrogen atom or a substituent, and the corresponding substituent is a substituted or unsubstituted C1-20 alkyl group or a substituted or unsubstituted cyclic C6-18 aryl group.

[0017] R a and R b They do not combine with each other and do not form rings.

[0018] L 4 is a single bond, or an unsubstituted cyclic arylene group having 6 to 18 carbon atoms.

[0019] Ar is a substituted or unsubstituted cyclic aryl group having 6 to 30 carbon atoms.

Specific details for implementing the invention

[0032] [definition]

[0033] In this specification, the term hydrogen atom includes isotopes with different numbers of neutrons, namely protium, deuterium, and tritium.

[0034] In this specification, in the chemical structural formula, hydrogen atoms, i.e., light hydrogen atoms, deuterium atoms, or tritium atoms are bonded to the bondable positions where symbols such as "R" or "D" representing a deuterium atom are not specified.

[0035] In this specification, the term "cyclic carbon number" refers to the number of carbon atoms among the atoms constituting the ring itself of a compound having a structure in which atoms are bonded in a ring (e.g., monocyclic compounds, condensed ring compounds, crosslinked compounds, carbon-ring compounds, and heterocyclic compounds). When the ring is substituted by a substituent, the carbons included in the substituent are not included in the cyclic carbon number. The "cyclic carbon number" described below shall be treated as such unless otherwise noted. For example, the benzene ring has a cyclic carbon number of 6, the naphthalene ring has a cyclic carbon number of 10, the pyridine ring has a cyclic carbon number of 5, and the furan ring has a cyclic carbon number of 4. Also, for example, the cyclic carbon number of the 9,9-diphenylfluorenyl group is 13, and the cyclic carbon number of the 9,9'-spirobifluorenyl group is 25.

[0036] In addition, when a benzene ring is substituted with, for example, an alkyl group, the number of carbons of the said alkyl group is not included in the number of carbons forming the ring of the benzene ring. Therefore, the number of carbons forming the ring of the benzene ring substituted with an alkyl group is 6. In addition, when a naphthalene ring is substituted with, for example, an alkyl group, the number of carbons of the said alkyl group is not included in the number of carbons forming the ring of the naphthalene ring. Therefore, the number of carbons forming the ring of the naphthalene ring substituted with an alkyl group is 10.

[0037] In this specification, the number of ring-forming atoms refers to the number of atoms constituting the ring itself of a compound having a structure in which atoms are bonded in a ring (e.g., a single ring, a condensed ring, and a ring assembly) (e.g., a single ring compound, a condensed ring compound, a crosslinked compound, a carbon ring compound, and a heteroring compound). Atoms that do not constitute a ring (e.g., hydrogen atoms terminating the bonds of atoms constituting the ring) or atoms included in the substituents when the ring is substituted by substituents are not included in the number of ring-forming atoms. The same shall apply to the "number of ring-forming atoms" described below unless otherwise noted. For example, the number of ring-forming atoms of a pyridine ring is 6, the number of ring-forming atoms of a quinazoline ring is 10, and the number of ring-forming atoms of a furan ring is 5. For example, hydrogen atoms bonded to the pyridine ring or the number of atoms constituting the substituents are not included in the number of pyridine ring-forming atoms. For this reason, the number of cyclic atoms of the pyridine ring to which hydrogen atoms or substituents are bonded is 6. Also, for example, hydrogen atoms bonded to carbon atoms of the quinazoline ring or atoms constituting substituents are not included in the number of cyclic atoms of the quinazoline ring. For this reason, the number of cyclic atoms of the quinazoline ring to which hydrogen atoms or substituents are bonded is 10.

[0038] In the present specification, in the expression “substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group having XX to YY carbons,” “XX to YY carbons” indicates the number of carbons when the ZZ group is unsubstituted and does not include the number of carbons of the substituent when it is substituted. Here, “YY” is greater than “XX,” “XX” means an integer of 1 or more, and “YY” means an integer of 2 or more.

[0039] In the present specification, in the expression “ZZ group having a number of atoms XX to YY that are substituted or unsubstituted,” “number of atoms XX to YY” represents the number of atoms when the ZZ group is unsubstituted and does not include the number of atoms of the substituent when it is substituted. Here, “YY” is greater than “XX,” “XX” means an integer greater than or equal to 1, and “YY” means an integer greater than or equal to 2.

[0040] In this specification, the term "unsubstituted ZZ group" indicates the case where the "substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" is the "unsubstituted ZZ group," and the term "substituted ZZ group" indicates the case where the "substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" is the "substituted ZZ group."

[0041] In this specification, "non-substituted" in the case of "substituted or non-substituted ZZ group" means that the hydrogen atoms in the ZZ group are not substituted with substituents. The hydrogen atoms in the "non-substituted ZZ group" are light hydrogen atoms, deuterium atoms, or tritium atoms.

[0042] In addition, in the present specification, "substitution" in the case of "substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" means that one or more hydrogen atoms in the ZZ group are substituted with a substituent. Likewise, "substitution" in the case of "BB group substituted with an AA group" means that one or more hydrogen atoms in the BB group are substituted with an AA group.

[0424] · "When combining to form a ring"

[0425] In the present specification, the phrase “one or more of two or more adjacent groups combine to form a substituted or unsubstituted single ring, combine to form a substituted or unsubstituted condensed ring, or do not combine to each other” means the case where “one or more of two or more adjacent groups combine to form a substituted or unsubstituted single ring,” the case where “one or more of two or more adjacent groups combine to form a substituted or unsubstituted condensed ring,” and the case where “one or more of two or more adjacent groups do not combine to each other.”

[0426] In this specification, the cases in which "one or more sets of two or more adjacent groups combine to form a substituted or unsubstituted single ring" and "one or more sets of two or more adjacent groups combine to form a substituted or unsubstituted condensed ring" (hereinafter, these cases are collectively referred to as "combining to form a ring") will be explained below. The case of an anthracene compound represented by the following general formula (TEMP-103), in which the matrix is ​​an anthracene ring, will be explained as an example.

[0427] [Chemical Formula 20]

[0428]

[0429] For example, R 921~ R 930 In the case where "one or more sets of two or more adjacent elements combine to form a ring," the two adjacent elements forming one set refer to R 921 and R 922 of, R 922 and R 923 of, R 923 and R 924 of, R 924 and R 930 of, R 930 and R 925 of, R 925 and R 926 of, R 926 and R 927 of, R 927 and R 928 of, R 928 and R 929 of, and R 929 and R 921 It is the group of.

[0430] The above "one or more sets" means that two or more sets of the above two or more adjacent sets may simultaneously form a ring. For example, R 921 and R 922 A combines with another to form a ring Q AForms, and simultaneously R 925 and R 926 These combine with each other to form the ring Q B In the case where it is formed, the anthracene compound represented by the above general formula (TEMP-103) is represented by the following general formula (TEMP-104).

[0431] [Chemical Formula 21]

[0432]

[0433] The case where "a group consisting of two or more adjacent units" forms a ring includes not only the case where a group consisting of "two" adjacent units combines as in the example above, but also the case where a group consisting of "three or more" adjacent units combines. For example, R 921 and R 922 A combines with another to form a ring Q A Forms, and also R 922 and R 923 These combine with each other to form the ring Q C Forming, three adjacent (R 921 , R 922 and R 923 This refers to the case where groups consisting of ) combine with each other to form a ring and condense onto the anthracene matrix, and in this case, the anthracene compound represented by the above general formula (TEMP-103) is represented by the following general formula (TEMP-105). In the following general formula (TEMP-105), ring Q A and Q C is, R 922 Share.

[0434] [Chemical Formula 22]

[0435]

[0436] The formed "single ring" or "condensed ring" may be a saturated ring or an unsaturated ring, as it is a structure consisting solely of the formed ring. Even if "a set of two adjacent rings" forms a "single ring" or a "condensed ring," said "single ring" or "condensed ring" may form a saturated ring or an unsaturated ring.

[0735] Organic EL device

[0736] An organic EL device of one aspect of the present invention comprises an anode, a cathode, and an organic layer disposed between the anode and the cathode. The organic layer comprises a light-emitting layer, and at least one layer of the organic layer comprises the compound of the invention.

[0737] Examples of organic layers containing the inventive compound include a hole transport band (hole injection layer, hole transport layer, electron blocking layer, exciton blocking layer, etc.) provided between an anode and a light-emitting layer, a light-emitting layer, a space layer, and an electron transport band (electron injection layer, electron transport layer, hole blocking layer, etc.) provided between a cathode and a light-emitting layer, but are not limited thereto. The inventive compound is preferably used as a material for a hole transport band or a light-emitting layer of a fluorescent or phosphorescent EL device, more preferably as a material for a hole transport band, even more preferably as a material for a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, or an exciton blocking layer, and particularly preferably as a material for a hole injection layer or a hole transport layer.

[0738] An organic EL device of one aspect of the present invention may be a monochromatic light-emitting device of the fluorescent or phosphorescent emission type, a white light-emitting device of the fluorescent / phosphorescent hybrid type, a simple type having a single light-emitting unit, or a tandem type having a plurality of light-emitting units, and among these, it is preferable to be a fluorescent light-emitting type device. Here, "light-emitting unit" refers to a minimum unit that includes an organic layer, is composed of a single or multiple layers formed by the organic layer, and at least one layer selected from the group consisting of said single layer and multiple layers is a light-emitting layer, and emits light by the recombination of injected holes and electrons.

[0739] For example, the following device configurations can be cited as representative device configurations of simple organic EL devices.

[0740] (1) Anode / Luminous unit / Cathode

[0741] In addition, the above-mentioned light-emitting unit may be a multilayer type having multiple phosphorescent light-emitting layers or fluorescent light-emitting layers, and in that case, a space layer may be provided between each light-emitting layer for the purpose of preventing excitons generated in the phosphorescent light-emitting layer from diffusing into the fluorescent light-emitting layer. A representative layer configuration of a simple light-emitting unit is shown below. The layers in parentheses are optional.

[0742] (a) (hole injection layer / )hole transport layer / fluorescent emitting layer / electron transport layer( / electron injection layer)

[0743] (b) (hole injection layer / )hole transport layer / first fluorescent emitting layer / second fluorescent emitting layer / electron transport layer( / electron injection layer)

[0744] (c) (hole injection layer / )hole transport layer / phosphorescent emitting layer / space layer / fluorescent emitting layer / electron transport layer( / electron injection layer)

[0745] (d) (hole injection layer / )hole transport layer / first phosphorescent emitting layer / second phosphorescent emitting layer / space layer / fluorescent emitting layer / electron transport layer( / electron injection layer)

[0746] (e) (hole injection layer / )hole transport layer / phosphorescent emitting layer / space layer / first fluorescent emitting layer / second fluorescent emitting layer / electron transport layer( / electron injection layer)

[0747] (f) (hole injection layer / )hole transport layer / electron blocking layer / fluorescent emitting layer / electron transport layer( / electron injection layer)

[0748] (g) (hole injection layer / )hole transport layer / exciton blocking layer / fluorescent emitting layer / electron transport layer( / electron injection layer)

[0749] (h) (hole injection layer / ) first hole transport layer / second hole transport layer / fluorescent emitting layer / electron transport layer( / electron injection layer)

[0750] (h1) (hole injection layer / ) first hole transport layer / second hole transport layer / third hole transport layer / fluorescent emitting layer / electron transport layer( / electron injection layer)

[0751] (i) (hole injection layer / ) first hole transport layer / second hole transport layer / fluorescent emitting layer / first electron transport layer / second electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer)

[0752] (i1) (hole injection layer / ) first hole transport layer / second hole transport layer / third hole transport layer / fluorescent emitting layer / first electron transport layer / second electron transport layer( / electron injection layer)

[0753] (j) (hole injection layer / )hole transport layer / fluorescent emitting layer / hole blocking layer / electron transport layer( / electron injection layer)

[0754] (k) (hole injection layer / )hole transport layer / fluorescent emission layer / exciton blocking layer / electron transport layer( / electron injection layer)

[0755] Each of the above phosphorescent or fluorescent light-emitting layers may exhibit a different light-emitting color. Specifically, the light-emitting unit (d) may include a layer configuration such as a (hole injection layer) hole transport layer, a first phosphorescent light-emitting layer (red light emission) and a second phosphorescent light-emitting layer (green light emission) and a space layer, a fluorescent light-emitting layer (blue light emission) and an electron transport layer.

[0756] Meanwhile, an electron blocking layer may be appropriately provided between each light-emitting layer and a hole transport layer or a space layer. Additionally, a hole blocking layer may be appropriately provided between each light-emitting layer and an electron transport layer. By providing an electron blocking layer or a hole blocking layer, electrons or holes can be trapped within the light-emitting layer, thereby increasing the probability of charge recombination in the light-emitting layer and improving luminous efficiency.

[0757] Representative device configurations of tandem organic EL devices include the following device configurations.

[0758] (2) Anode / First light-emitting unit / Intermediate layer / Second light-emitting unit / Cathode

[0759] Here, the first light-emitting unit and the second light-emitting unit can be selected, for example, independently from the light-emitting units described above.

[0760] The above intermediate layer may utilize a known material composition that is generally referred to as an intermediate electrode, intermediate conductive layer, charge generating layer, electron drawing layer, connection layer, or intermediate insulating layer, and supplies electrons to the first light-emitting unit and holes to the second light-emitting unit.

[0761] In addition, when the hole transport layer is a multilayer structure including two or more hole transport layers, the hole transport layer adjacent to the light-emitting layer in the multilayer structure, for example, the second hole transport layer of the two-layer structure or the third hole transport layer of the three-layer structure, may function as an electron blocking layer. That is, when the hole transport layer is a multilayer structure including two or more hole transport layers, the hole transport layer adjacent to the light-emitting layer in the multilayer structure may be used as an electron blocking layer.

[0762] FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing an example of the configuration of an organic EL device according to one aspect of the present invention. The organic EL device (1) shown in FIG. 1 has a substrate (2), an anode (3), a cathode (4), and a light-emitting unit (10) disposed between the anode (3) and the cathode (4). The light-emitting unit (10) has a light-emitting layer (5). Between the light-emitting layer (5) and the anode (3), there is a hole transport band (6) (hole injection layer, hole transport layer, etc.), and between the light-emitting layer (5) and the cathode (4), there is an electron transport band (7) (electron injection layer, electron transport layer, etc.). Additionally, an electron blocking layer (not shown) may be provided on the anode (3) side of the light-emitting layer (5), and a hole blocking layer (not shown) may be provided on the cathode (4) side of the light-emitting layer (5). By doing so, electrons or holes can be trapped in the light-emitting layer (5), thereby increasing the generation efficiency of excitons in the light-emitting layer (5).

[0763] FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing another configuration of an organic EL device according to one aspect of the present invention. The organic EL device (11) shown in FIG. 2 has a substrate (2), an anode (3), a cathode (4), and a light-emitting unit (20) disposed between the anode (3) and the cathode (4). The light-emitting unit (20) has a light-emitting layer (5). A hole transport band disposed between the anode (3) and the light-emitting layer (5) is formed by a hole injection layer (6a), a first hole transport layer (6b), and a second hole transport layer (6c). Additionally, an electron transport band disposed between the light-emitting layer (5) and the cathode (4) is formed by a first electron transport layer (7a) and a second electron transport layer (7b).

[0764] FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing another configuration of an organic EL device according to one aspect of the present invention. The organic EL device (12) has a substrate (2), an anode (3), a cathode (4), and a light-emitting unit (30) disposed between the anode (3) and the cathode (4). The light-emitting unit (30) has a light-emitting layer (5). A hole transport band disposed between the anode (3) and the light-emitting layer (5) is formed by a hole injection layer (6a), a first hole transport layer (6b), a second hole transport layer (6c), and a third hole transport layer (6d). Additionally, an electron transport band disposed between the light-emitting layer (5) and the cathode (4) is formed by a first electron transport layer (7a) and a second electron transport layer (7b).

[0765] In FIGS. 1 to 3, the light-emitting layer (5) comprises at least one light-emitting layer. The light-emitting layer (5) may be a single layer or may comprise a plurality of layers (e.g., a plurality of light-emitting layers, a plurality of light-emitting layers and a space layer). Among these, it is preferable that it be stacked in a plurality of layers as one embodiment.

[0766] Meanwhile, in the present invention, a host combined with a fluorescent dopant material (fluorescent emitting material) is referred to as a fluorescent host, and a host combined with a phosphorescent dopant material is referred to as a phosphorescent host. Fluorescent hosts and phosphorescent hosts are not distinguished solely by their molecular structures. That is, a phosphorescent host refers to a material that forms a phosphorescent emitting layer containing a phosphorescent dopant, and does not mean that it cannot be used as a material that forms a fluorescent emitting layer. The same applies to fluorescent hosts.

[0767] substrate

[0768] The substrate is used as a support for the organic EL device. As a substrate, for example, a plate made of glass, quartz, plastic, etc., may be used. In addition, a flexible substrate may be used. Examples of flexible substrates include plastic substrates made of polycarbonate, polyarylate, polyethersulfone, polypropylene, polyester, polyvinyl fluoride, and polyvinyl chloride. In addition, an inorganic deposition film may be used.

[0769] anode

[0770] For the anode formed on the substrate, it is preferable to use a metal, alloy, electrically conductive compound, or mixture thereof having a large work function (specifically 4.0 eV or more). Specifically, examples include indium tin oxide (ITO), indium tin oxide containing silicon or silicon oxide, indium zinc oxide, indium oxide containing tungsten oxide and zinc oxide, and graphene. In addition, examples include gold (Au), platinum (Pt), nickel (Ni), tungsten (W), chromium (Cr), molybdenum (Mo), iron (Fe), cobalt (Co), copper (Cu), palladium (Pd), titanium (Ti), or nitrides of the above metals (e.g., titanium nitride).

[0771] These materials are typically formed by sputtering. For example, indium oxide-zinc oxide can be formed by sputtering by using a target containing 1 to 10 wt% zinc oxide relative to indium oxide, and indium oxide containing tungsten oxide and zinc oxide can be formed by sputtering by using a target containing 0.5 to 5 wt% tungsten oxide and 0.1 to 1 wt% zinc oxide relative to indium oxide. In addition, they may be produced by vacuum deposition, coating, inkjet, spin coating, etc.

[0772] Precision transport band

[0773] As described above, the organic layer may include a hole transport band between the anode and the light-emitting layer. The hole transport band is composed of a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, etc. It is preferable that the hole transport band includes the compound of the invention. It is preferable that the compound of the invention be included in at least one layer selected from the group consisting of these layers (hole injection layer, hole transport layer, electron blocking layer, etc.) constituting the hole transport band, and it is particularly more preferable that the compound of the invention be included in the hole transport layer.

[0774] Since the hole injection layer formed in contact with the anode is formed using a material that facilitates hole injection regardless of the work function of the anode, materials generally used as electrode materials (e.g., metals, alloys, electrically conductive compounds, and mixtures thereof, and elements belonging to Group 1 or Group 2 of the periodic table) can be used.

[0775] Materials with a small work function, such as elements belonging to Group 1 or Group 2 of the periodic table, namely alkali metals like lithium (Li) or cesium (Cs), alkaline earth metals like magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), and strontium (Sr), and alloys containing these (e.g., MgAg, AlLi), rare earth metals like europium (Eu) and ytterbium (Yb), and alloys containing these may also be used. Meanwhile, when forming an anode using alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, and alloys containing these, vacuum deposition or sputtering methods may be used. Also, when using silver paste, etc., coating methods or inkjet methods may be used.

[0776] Hole injection layer

[0777] The hole injection layer is a layer containing a material with high hole injection properties (hole injection material), and is formed between the anode and the light-emitting layer, or, if present, between the hole transport layer and the anode.

[0778] As hole-injecting materials other than the inventive compound, molybdenum oxide, titanium oxide, vanadium oxide, rhenium oxide, ruthenium oxide, chromium oxide, zirconium oxide, hafnium oxide, tantalum oxide, silver oxide, tungsten oxide, manganese oxide, etc. can be used.

[0779] Low molecular weight organic compounds such as 4,4',4''-tris(N,N-diphenylamino)triphenylamine (abbreviated: TDATA), 4,4',4''-tris[N-(3-methylphenyl)-N-phenylamino]triphenylamine (abbreviated: MTDATA), 4,4'-bis[N-(4-diphenylaminophenyl)-N-phenylamino]biphenyl (abbreviated: DPAB), 4,4'-bis(N-{4-[N'-(3-methylphenyl)-N'-phenylamino]phenyl}-N-phenylamino)biphenyl (abbreviated: DNTPD), 1,3,5-tris[N-(4-diphenylaminophenyl)-N-phenylamino]benzene (abbreviated: DPA3B), and 3-[N-(9-phenylcarbazole-3-yl)-N-phenylamino]-9-phenylcarbazole (abbreviated: PCzPCA1), Aromatic amine compounds such as 3,6-bis[N-(9-phenylcarbazole-3-yl)-N-phenylamino]-9-phenylcarbazole (abbreviated: PCzPCA2) and 3-[N-(1-naphthyl)-N-(9-phenylcarbazole-3-yl)amino]-9-phenylcarbazole (abbreviated: PCzPCN1) can also be used as hole injection layer materials.

[0780] Polymeric compounds (oligomers, dendrimers, polymers, etc.) may also be used. Examples include poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (abbreviated: PVK), poly(4-vinyltriphenylamine) (abbreviated: PVTPA), poly[N-(4-{N'-[4-(4-diphenylamino)phenyl]phenyl-N'-phenylamino}phenyl)methacrylamide] (abbreviated: PTPDMA), and poly[N,N'-bis(4-butylphenyl)-N,N'-bis(phenyl)benzidine] (abbreviated: Poly-TPD). Additionally, polymeric compounds with added acids, such as poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) / poly(styrenesulfonic acid) (PEDOT / PSS) and polyaniline / poly(styrenesulfonic acid) (PAni / PSS), may also be used.

[0781] In addition, it is also desirable to use an acceptor material such as a hexa-azatriphenylene (HAT) compound represented by the following formula (K).

[0782] [Chemical Formula 96]

[0783]

Also, R 221 and R 222 , R 223 and R 224 , and R 225 and R 226 Two adjacent groups selected from may combine to form a group represented as -CO-O-CO-.)

[0785] R 227 Examples include methyl groups, ethyl groups, n-propyl groups, isopropyl groups, n-butyl groups, isobutyl groups, t-butyl groups, cyclopentyl groups, cyclohexyl groups, etc.

[0786] In one aspect of an organic EL device according to the present invention, the hole transport band comprises a hole injection layer between the anode and a first hole transport layer on the anode side, and the hole injection layer comprises a first organic material and a second organic material, and the first organic material and the second organic material are different from each other, and the content of the second organic material in the hole injection layer is 0.01 mass% or more and less than 50 mass%, preferably 0.05 mass% or more and 30 mass% or less, more preferably 0.10 mass% or more and 10 mass% or less, even more preferably 0.50 mass% or more and 5 mass% or less, and particularly preferably 1.0 mass% or more and 3 mass% or less.

When the light-emitting layer stacked in a plurality of layers is composed of, for example, a first light-emitting layer and a second light-emitting layer, at least one of the components constituting the first light-emitting layer is different from the component constituting the second light-emitting layer.

[0934] In the organic EL device according to the present embodiment, the light-emitting layer may contain a light-emitting compound that exhibits fluorescent light emission with a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less.

[0935] The method for measuring the main peak wavelength of a compound is as follows. A 5 μmol / L toluene solution of the compound to be measured is prepared and placed in a quartz cell, and the emission spectrum of the sample is measured at room temperature (300K) (longitudinal axis: emission intensity, horizontal axis: wavelength). The emission spectrum can be measured using a spectrofluorescence photometer manufactured by Hitachi High-Tech Science Inc. (device name: F-7000). Meanwhile, the emission spectrum measuring device is not limited to the device used herein.

Furthermore, when the first emitting layer includes a emitting compound that exhibits fluorescent emission with a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less, only one of the dopant material and the host material included in the first emitting layer may be a emitting compound that exhibits fluorescent emission with a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less, and both materials may be emitting compounds that exhibit fluorescent emission with a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less. In addition, when the second emitting layer includes a emitting compound that exhibits fluorescent emission with a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less, only one of the dopant material and the host material included in the second emitting layer may be a emitting compound that exhibits fluorescent emission with a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less, and both materials may be emitting compounds that exhibit fluorescent emission with a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less.

[0942] The electron transport layer may be a single-layer structure or a multilayer structure including two or more layers. For example, the electron transport layer may be a two-layer structure including a first electron transport layer (anode side) and a second electron transport layer (cathode side). In one aspect of the present invention, it is preferable that the electron transport layer of the single-layer structure be adjacent to the light-emitting layer, and it is also preferable that the electron transport layer closest to the anode among the multilayer structures, for example, the first electron transport layer of the two-layer structure, be adjacent to the light-emitting layer. In another aspect of the present invention, a hole blocking layer described later may be interposed between the electron transport layer of the single-layer structure and the light-emitting layer, or between the electron transport layer closest to the light-emitting layer among the multilayer structures and the light-emitting layer.

[0948] As heteroaromatic compounds, for example, 2-(4-biphenylyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (abbreviation: PBD), 1,3-bis[5-(p-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-yl]benzene (abbreviation: OXD-7), 3-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-4-phenyl-5-(4-biphenylyl)-1,2,4-triazole (abbreviation: TAZ), 3-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-4-(4-ethylphenyl)-5-(4-biphenylyl)-1,2,4-triazole (abbreviation: p-EtTAZ), vasophenanthroline (abbreviation: BPhen), vasocuproin (abbreviation: BCP), Examples include 4,4'-bis(5-methylbenzoxazole-2-yl)stilbene (abbreviated: BzOs).

[0949] Examples of polymer compounds include poly[(9,9-dihexylfluorene-2,7-diyl)-co-(pyridine-3,5-diyl)] (abbreviated: PF-Py) and poly[(9,9-dioctylfluorene-2,7-diyl)-co-(2,2'-bipyridine-6,6'-diyl)] (abbreviated: PF-BPy).

[0950] The above material is 10 -6 cm 2 It is a material having an electron mobility of / Vs or higher. Meanwhile, if the material has higher electron transport than hole transport, other materials may be used in the electron transport layer. In addition, the electron transport layer may be a single layer, or a stack of two or more layers, each containing the above material. When the electron transport layer has a two-layer structure, the layer on the anode side is called the first electron transport layer, and the layer on the cathode side is called the second electron transport layer.

[0951] electron injection layer

[0952] The electron injection layer is a layer containing a material with high electron injection properties. In the electron injection layer, alkali metals such as lithium (Li) and cesium (Cs), alkaline earth metals such as magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), and strontium (Sr), rare earth metals such as europium (Eu) and ytterbium (Yb), and compounds containing these metals may be used. Examples of such compounds include alkali metal oxides, alkali metal halides, alkali metal-containing organic complexes such as (8-quinolinoleto)lithium (abbreviated as Liq), alkaline earth metal oxides, alkaline earth metal halides, alkaline earth metal-containing organic complexes, rare earth metal oxides, rare earth metal halides, and rare earth metal-containing organic complexes. In addition, a mixture of these compounds may be used.

[0953] In addition, a material having electron transport properties may be used that contains an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, or a compound thereof, specifically a material that contains magnesium (Mg) in Alq. Meanwhile, in this case, electron injection from the cathode can be performed more efficiently.

[0954] Alternatively, a composite material formed by mixing an organic compound and an electron donor (donor) may be used in the electron injection layer. Such a composite material exhibits excellent electron injection and electron transport properties because the organic compound receives electrons from the electron donor. In this case, it is preferable that the organic compound be a material with excellent transport of received electrons; specifically, for example, a material constituting the aforementioned electron transport layer (such as a metal complex or a heteroaromatic compound) may be used. As for the electron donor, any material that exhibits electron-donating properties toward the organic compound is sufficient. Specifically, alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, and rare earth metals are preferred, and examples include lithium, cesium, magnesium, calcium, erbium, and ytterbium. Additionally, alkali metal oxides or alkaline earth metal oxides are preferred, and examples include lithium oxide, calcium oxide, and barium oxide. Furthermore, Lewis bases such as magnesium oxide may be used. Additionally, organic compounds such as tetrathiafulvalene (abbreviated as TTF) may be used.

[0955] cathode

[0956] For the cathode, it is preferable to use metals, alloys, electrically conductive compounds, and mixtures thereof that have a small work function (specifically 3.8 eV or less). Specific examples of such cathode materials include elements belonging to Group 1 or Group 2 of the periodic table, namely alkali metals such as lithium (Li) or cesium (Cs), alkaline earth metals such as magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), and strontium (Sr), alloys containing these (e.g., MgAg, AlLi), rare earth metals such as europium (Eu) and ytterbium (Yb), and alloys containing these.

[0957] Meanwhile, when forming a cathode using alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, or alloys containing them, vacuum deposition or sputtering methods may be used. In addition, when using silver paste, coating methods or inkjet methods may be used.

[0958] Meanwhile, by providing an electron injection layer, a cathode can be formed using various conductive materials such as Al, Ag, ITO, graphene, silicon, or indium-tin oxide containing silicon oxide, regardless of the magnitude of the work function. These conductive materials can be deposited using sputtering, inkjet, spin coating, etc.

[0959] insulating layer

[0960] Since organic EL devices apply an electric field to an ultrathin film, pixel defects caused by leakage or short circuits are likely to occur. To prevent this, an insulating layer consisting of an insulating thin film may be inserted between a pair of electrodes.

[0961] Examples of materials used for the insulating layer include aluminum oxide, lithium fluoride, lithium oxide, cesium fluoride, cesium oxide, magnesium oxide, magnesium fluoride, calcium oxide, calcium fluoride, aluminum nitride, titanium oxide, silicon oxide, germanium oxide, silicon nitride, boron nitride, molybdenum oxide, ruthenium oxide, vanadium oxide, etc. Meanwhile, mixtures or laminates of these may also be used.

[0962] Space layer

[0963] The above space layer is a layer provided between a fluorescent emitting layer and a phosphorescent emitting layer for the purpose of preventing excitons generated in the phosphorescent emitting layer from diffusing into the fluorescent emitting layer, or for the purpose of adjusting the carrier balance, for example, when a fluorescent emitting layer and a phosphorescent emitting layer are stacked. Additionally, the space layer may be provided between a plurality of phosphorescent emitting layers.

[0964] Since the space layer is provided between the emitting layers, it is desirable for it to be a material that possesses both electron transport and hole transport properties. In addition, to prevent the diffusion of triplet energy within the adjacent phosphorescent emitting layer, it is desirable for the triplet energy to be 2.6 eV or higher. The same material used for the space layer as that used for the hole transport layer described above may be used.

[0965] low-lying area

[0966] Blocking layers, such as an electron blocking layer, a hole blocking layer, and an exciton blocking layer, may be provided adjacent to the emitting layer. An electron blocking layer is a layer that prevents electrons from leaking from the emitting layer to the hole transport layer, and a hole blocking layer is a layer that prevents holes from leaking from the emitting layer to the electron transport layer. The exciton blocking layer prevents excitons generated in the emitting layer from diffusing into surrounding layers, thereby having the function of trapping excitons within the emitting layer.

[0967] Each layer of the above organic EL device can be formed by conventionally known deposition methods, coating methods, etc. For example, it can be formed by known methods such as deposition methods including vacuum deposition and molecular beam deposition (MBE), or coating methods including dipping, spin coating, casting, bar coating, and roll coating using a solution of a compound that forms the layer.

[0968] The film thickness of each layer is not particularly limited, but generally, if the film thickness is too thin, defects such as pinholes are likely to occur, and conversely, if it is too thick, a high driving voltage is required, which reduces efficiency, so it is typically 5 nm to 10 μm, and 10 nm to 0.2 μm is more preferable.

[0969] In one aspect of the organic EL device of the present invention, the sum of the thickness of the first hole transport layer and the thickness of the second hole transport layer is 30 nm or more and 150 nm or less. In this case, preferably, it is 40 nm or more and 130 nm or less.

[0970] In addition, in one aspect of the organic EL device of the present invention, the thickness of the second hole transport layer is 20 nm or more. Preferably, it is 25 nm or more, more preferably 35 nm or more, and also preferably 100 nm or less.

[0971] In addition, in one aspect of the organic EL device of the present invention, the hole transport layer adjacent to the light-emitting layer is 20 nm or larger. Preferably, it is 25 nm or larger, more preferably 30 nm or larger, and also preferably 100 nm or smaller.

[0972] In addition, in one aspect of the organic EL device of the present invention, the film thickness D1 of the first hole transport layer and the film thickness D2 of the second hole transport layer are 0.3 <D2 / D1<4.0의 관계를 만족시킨다. 바람직하게는 0.5<D2 / D1<3.5의 관계를 만족시키고, 보다 바람직하게는 0.75<D2 / D1<3.0의 관계를 만족시킨다.
