[0174] In one or more embodiments, the heterocyclic compound represented by Formula 1 may be selected from compounds of Group I:
[0175] Group I
[0176]
[0177]
[0178]
[0179]
[0180] The heterocyclic compound represented by Formula 1 can be designed to emit light of any suitable color, such as red, green, blue, etc. In one embodiment, the heterocyclic compound represented by Formula 1 can be designed to emit blue light. In one embodiment, the heterocyclic compound represented by Formula 1 can be designed to emit blue light with a maximum emission wavelength of about 430 nm to about 480 nm, but embodiments of this disclosure are not limited thereto.
[0181] As used herein, the term "maximum emission wavelength" can refer to the wavelength value of the maximum emission intensity in the photoluminescence (PL) spectrum of a solution or membrane sample of a compound.
[0182] Typically, it is desirable (e.g., should be satisfied) for a small energy difference (ΔE) between the lowest excited singlet level and the lowest excited triplet level. ST The large oscillator intensity (f) is used to enable the compound to effectively exhibit thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF). This is because of the small ΔE. ST Since there is an inverse relationship between f and large f (e.g., inverse correlation or correlation), it may be difficult to simultaneously (e.g., simultaneously) satisfy small ΔE. ST And large f. However, the heterocyclic compounds represented by Equation 1 can simultaneously (e.g., simultaneously) satisfy small ΔE due to the structural properties described below. ST Both the large f and the large f enable the effective realization of thermally activated delayed fluorescence process.
[0183] The heterocyclic compound represented by Formula 1 contains boron (B) in its core (e.g., in the central region of its fused-ring core). The nitrogen (N) atom in the core has an energy corresponding to the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO), the B atom has an energy corresponding to the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), and each carbon (C) atom adjacent to N and B alternately has an energy corresponding to either the HOMO or the LUMO due to resonance effects. In some embodiments, for example, the HOMO may be located on the N atom; the LUMO may be located on the B atom, and the electronic conjugation between them can be mediated via resonance through the aromatic carbon atom. Thus, in the case of the heterocyclic compound, the HOMO and LUMO can be separated at the atomic or molecular level, expressing TADF properties, and containing multiple N, O, and S atoms and two B atoms to provide multiple donors and acceptors, allowing for increased spacing between the HOMO and LUMO. Due to such TADF properties, organic light-emitting devices containing heterocyclic compounds can exhibit high efficiency.
[0184] Furthermore, because HOMO and LUMO overlap (conjugate) due to resonance effects in heterocyclic compounds, emission transitions can easily occur.
[0185] Heterocyclic compounds contain a carbazole ring (partially) in their core, and therefore possess a rigid structure. Typically, compounds may undergo structural changes when absorbing and transferring energy (e.g., by emitting light). Because heterocyclic compounds contain a carbazole ring, these structural changes can be minimized or reduced, resulting in a narrower full width at half maximum (FWHM) and suppression of vibrations, thus contributing to improved quantum efficiency. Reduced structural changes during electron transfer can lead to a decreased Stokes shift. Because heterocyclic compounds contain a carbazole ring in their core, the length or area of the conjugated system can be increased, and the absorption band can shift to longer wavelengths. However, because the Stokes shift value is relatively small, the elongation of the emission wavelength can be suppressed or reduced. In this case, device stability can be improved because the host can be selected from hosts with relatively low lowest excited singlet levels (hosts emitting longer wavelengths of light). Therefore, the efficiency of organic light-emitting devices containing heterocyclic compounds can be improved, and high color purity can be provided.
[0186] For blue light emission, S1 and T1 should each be relatively high. The inclusion of a carbazole ring can give the compound a relatively high binding and dissociation energy. Therefore, because the heterocyclic compound contains a carbazole ring, it can have a high binding and dissociation energy, and this can improve the lifespan of organic light-emitting devices containing the heterocyclic compound.
[0187] Furthermore, because heterocyclic compounds possess relatively high charge (hole or electron) transport capabilities, the exciton formation ratio in the emitter layer of organic light-emitting devices using heterocyclic compounds represented by Formula 1 can be improved. Additionally, because the carbazole moiety is contained within the core, the HOMO level can be deepened (e.g., stabilized), and thus the mismatch with the host HOMO level can be reduced, thereby improving the device's lifetime. Therefore, organic light-emitting devices can exhibit low driving voltage, high efficiency, long lifetime, and / or high maximum quantum efficiency.
[0188] Furthermore, because heterocyclic compounds have relatively small ΔE ST Therefore, a relatively low T1 ratio can be maintained, allowing triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA), triplet-polaron quenching (TPQ), and other events (which occur at high T1 ratios) to occur relatively less frequently. Consequently, the roll-off characteristics of organic light-emitting devices containing heterocyclic compounds can be reduced or improved.
[0189] Dexter energy transfer is the phenomenon in which electrons from triplet excitons are transferred directly from the acceptor to the donor, which is more likely to occur when the intermolecular distance is short. Because the heterocyclic compounds according to the embodiments have structures that extend the intermolecular distance, dexter energy transfer can be suppressed or reduced, and therefore the adverse effects caused by the movement of triplet excitons can be suppressed or reduced.
[0190] Furthermore, because heterocyclic compounds contain only a single carbazole moiety, the structural strain induced by the pentagonal ring of the carbazole structure is relatively smaller than that induced in heterocyclic compounds containing two or more carbazole structures. For example, in heterocyclic compounds containing two or more carbazole structures, deformation (e.g., distortion) may occur, in which the bond between boron (B) and carbon (C) becomes longer (e.g., longer than the average BC bond length) to accommodate the pentagonal ring of the carbazole structure. For this reason, heterocyclic compounds containing two or more carbazole structures can have lower stability than heterocyclic compounds represented by Formula 1.
[0191] Furthermore, because the heterocyclic compound contains two boron (B) atoms, the resonance effect can be relatively large. This can lead to a "short-range charge transfer" phenomenon, in which the HOMO / LUMO spacing is further increased due to atomic separation, and the molecules are extensively fused to expand charge delocalization, allowing for increased molecular polarization and resulting in an increase in the oscillator strength value (e.g., oscillator strength f). Therefore, the efficiency of organic light-emitting devices containing the heterocyclic compound can be improved. Moreover, because the heterocyclic compound has a robust linear molecular model, improved light extraction performance using transition dipoles can be expected.
[0192] The method for synthesizing the heterocyclic compound represented by Formula 1 should be apparent to those skilled in the art by referring to the following examples.
[0193] At least one of the heterocyclic compounds represented by Formula 1 can be used between a pair of electrodes in an organic light-emitting device. For example, the heterocyclic compound may be included in at least one selected from hole transport regions, electron transport regions, and emitter layers. In one or more embodiments, the heterocyclic compound represented by Formula 1 can be used as a material for a capping layer located outside a pair of electrodes in the organic light-emitting device.
[0194] One or more exemplary embodiments of this disclosure provide an organic light-emitting device comprising: a first electrode; a second electrode facing the first electrode; and an organic layer between the first electrode and the second electrode and including an emission layer, wherein the organic layer comprises at least one heterocyclic compound represented by Formula 1.
[0195] As used herein, the term "organic layer" can refer to a single layer and / or multiple layers disposed between the first and second electrodes of an organic light-emitting device. The materials contained in the "organic layer" are not limited to organic materials.
[0196] As used herein, the expression “(organic layer) contains at least one heterocyclic compound” can include cases where “(organic layer) contains the same heterocyclic compound represented by Formula 1” (e.g., the same compound) and cases where “(organic layer) contains two or more different heterocyclic compounds represented by Formula 1”.
[0197] For example, the organic layer may contain only compound 1 as a heterocyclic compound. In this respect, compound 1 may exist only (e.g., as the only heterocyclic compound) in the emitting layer of the organic light-emitting device. In one or more embodiments, the organic layer may contain both compound 1 and compound 2 as heterocyclic compounds. Here, compound 1 and compound 2 may exist in the same layer (e.g., both compound 1 and compound 2 may exist in the emitting layer simultaneously) or in different layers (e.g., compound 1 may exist in the emitting layer and compound 2 may exist in the electron transport layer).
[0198] In one embodiment, in the organic light-emitting device, the first electrode can be an anode, the second electrode can be a cathode, and the organic layer can further include a hole transport region between the first electrode and the emission layer and an electron transport region between the emission layer and the second electrode. The hole transport region can include a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an emission auxiliary layer, an electron blocking layer or any combination thereof, and the electron transport region can include a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer or any combination thereof.
[0199] In embodiments, the emitting layer may comprise a heterocyclic compound represented by Formula 1. In addition to the heterocyclic compound, the emitting layer may further comprise a host, and the amount of the heterocyclic compound in the emitting layer may be less than the amount of the host. For example, the heterocyclic compound may be a thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitter (TADF emitter), but embodiments of this disclosure are not limited thereto.
[0200] In one or more embodiments, the phosphorescent compound (e.g., a transition metal compound) may not be included in the emission layer (e.g., it may be excluded from the emission layer), and for example, the emission layer may contain a heterocyclic compound represented by Formula 1 and a host.
[0201] In one or more embodiments, at least one of the hole transport region and the emitter layer may comprise at least one of an arylamine-containing compound, an acridine-containing compound, and a carbazole-containing compound; and / or
[0202] At least one of the emitter layer and the electron transport region may contain at least one of the following: a silicon-containing compound, a phosphine oxide-containing compound, a sulfur oxide-containing compound, a phosphorus oxide-containing compound, a triazine-containing compound, a pyrimidine-containing compound, a pyridine-containing compound, a dibenzofuran-containing compound, and a dibenzothiophene-containing compound.
