Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of organic materials, and in particular relates to a nitrogen-containing compound, an electronic component and an electronic device. Background Art

[0002] Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) is abbreviated as OLED. Its principle is that when an electric field is applied between the positive and negative electrodes, the holes on the anode side and the electrons on the cathode side will move to the light-emitting layer, where they will combine to form excitons. The excitons will release energy outward in an excited state, and the process of releasing energy from the excited state to the ground state will emit light outward. Since the American Kodak Company reported the electroluminescence of organic molecules in 1987 and the University of Cambridge in the UK reported the electroluminescence of polymers in 1990, countries around the world have carried out research and development. Organic electroluminescent materials have the advantages of simple structure, high yield, low cost, active luminescence, fast response speed, high resolution, etc., and have the properties of low driving voltage, all solid state, non-vacuum, anti-vibration, and low temperature resistance (-40℃). It is considered to be a new technology that is most likely to replace liquid crystal displays in the future, and has attracted great attention.

[0003] Currently, OLED display technology has been applied in smart phones, tablets and other fields, and has further expanded to large-size application fields such as televisions. However, compared with the actual product application requirements, the main problems of existing organic electroluminescent devices are lifespan and efficiency. With the large-area display, the driving voltage also increases, and the luminous efficiency and lifespan also need to be improved. Therefore, it is necessary to continue to develop new organic electroluminescent materials to further improve the performance of organic electroluminescent devices. In order to produce high-performance OLED light-emitting devices, various organic functional materials are required to have good optoelectronic properties. Summary of the invention
