[0002] Among light-emitting devices, organic light-emitting devices are self-emissive devices that, compared to conventional devices, not only have a wide viewing angle and excellent contrast, but also have a fast response time and excellent characteristics in terms of brightness, driving voltage, and response speed.
[0003] The above organic light-emitting device may have a structure in which a first electrode is disposed on a substrate, and a hole transport region, an emissive layer, an electron transport region, and a second electrode are sequentially formed on the first electrode.
