Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an organic electroluminescent element and an electronic device. Background Art

[0002] Organic electroluminescent devices (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "organic EL devices") are used in full-color displays in mobile phones, televisions, and other applications. When voltage is applied to an organic EL device, holes are injected from the anode into the light-emitting layer, and electrons are injected from the cathode into the light-emitting layer. The injected holes and electrons then recombine in the light-emitting layer to form excitons. Due to the statistical laws of electron spin, singlet excitons are generated at a rate of 25% and triplet excitons at a rate of 75%.

[0003] To improve the performance of organic EL devices, various studies have been conducted on compounds used in organic EL devices, for example, in Patent Documents 1 to 4 and 6. Furthermore, Patent Document 5 describes the phenomenon of generating singlet excitons by the collisional fusion of two triplet excitons (hereinafter sometimes referred to as triplet-triplet fusion (TTF) phenomenon) to improve the performance of organic EL devices.

[0004] Examples of the performance of an organic EL element include luminance, emission wavelength, chromaticity, luminous efficiency, driving voltage, and lifespan.

[0027] Figure 1 This is a diagram showing a schematic configuration of an example of an organic electroluminescent element according to one embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] [definition]

[0029] In this specification, the hydrogen atom is meant to include isotopes having different numbers of neutrons, namely, protium, deuterium, and tritium.

[0030] In this specification, in chemical structural formulas, any bondable position not explicitly indicating a symbol such as "R" or "D" representing a deuterium atom is assumed to be bonded with a hydrogen atom, ie, a protium atom, a deuterium atom, or a tritium atom.

[0031] In this specification, the ring carbon number refers to the number of carbon atoms among the atoms constituting the ring itself of a compound (such as a monocyclic compound, a condensed ring compound, a bridged ring compound, a carbocyclic compound and a heterocyclic compound) in which atoms are cyclically bonded. When the ring is substituted with a substituent, the carbon contained in the substituent is not included in the ring carbon number. The "ring carbon number" recorded below is set in the same manner as long as it is not otherwise stated. For example, the ring carbon number of a benzene ring is 6, the ring carbon number of a naphthalene ring is 10, the ring carbon number of a pyridine ring is 5, and the ring carbon number of a furan ring is 4. In addition, for example, the ring carbon number of 9,9-diphenylfluorenyl is 13, and the ring carbon number of 9,9'-spirobifluorenyl is 25.

[0032] Furthermore, when a benzene ring is substituted with, for example, an alkyl group, the carbon number of the alkyl group is not included in the ring carbon number of the benzene ring. Therefore, the ring carbon number of a benzene ring substituted with an alkyl group is 6. Furthermore, when a naphthalene ring is substituted with, for example, an alkyl group, the carbon number of the alkyl group is not included in the ring carbon number of the naphthalene ring. Therefore, the ring carbon number of a naphthalene ring substituted with an alkyl group is 10.

[0033] In this specification, the number of ring atoms refers to the number of atoms constituting the ring itself of a compound (such as a monocyclic compound, a condensed ring compound, a bridged ring compound, a carbocyclic compound, and a heterocyclic compound) in which atoms are bonded in a ring shape (such as a monocyclic ring, a condensed ring, and an aggregated ring). Atoms that do not constitute a ring (such as a hydrogen atom that terminates the bond of the atoms constituting the ring) and atoms contained in a substituent when the ring is substituted by a substituent are not included in the number of ring atoms. The "number of ring atoms" recorded below is set in the same manner as long as it is not otherwise stated. For example, the number of ring atoms of a pyridine ring is 6, the number of ring atoms of a quinazoline ring is 10, and the number of ring atoms of a furan ring is 5. For example, the number of hydrogen atoms bonded to a pyridine ring or the number of atoms constituting a substituent are not included in the number of pyridine ring atoms. Therefore, the number of ring atoms of a pyridine ring bonded with a hydrogen atom or a substituent is 6. For example, hydrogen atoms bonded to carbon atoms of the quinazoline ring or atoms constituting substituents are not included in the number of ring atoms of the quinazoline ring. Therefore, the number of ring atoms of the quinazoline ring to which hydrogen atoms or substituents are bonded is 10.

[0034] In this specification, "carbon number XX to YY" in the expression "a substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group having XX to YY carbon atoms" refers to the carbon number of the ZZ group when it is unsubstituted and does not include the carbon number of the substituent when it is substituted. Here, "YY" is greater than "XX," "XX" is an integer greater than 1, and "YY" is an integer greater than 2.

[0035] In this specification, "atomic number XX to YY" in the expression "a substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group having an atomic number of XX to YY" indicates the atomic number of the ZZ group when it is unsubstituted and does not include the atomic number of the substituent when it is substituted. Here, "YY" is greater than "XX," "XX" is an integer greater than 1, and "YY" is an integer greater than 2.

[0036] In this specification, an unsubstituted ZZ group means a case where a "substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" is an "unsubstituted ZZ group", and a substituted ZZ group means a case where a "substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" is a "substituted ZZ group".

[0037] In this specification, "unsubstituted" in the context of a "substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" means that the hydrogen atom in the ZZ group is not replaced by a substituent. The hydrogen atom in the "unsubstituted ZZ group" is a protium atom, a deuterium atom, or a tritium atom.

[0038] In this specification, "substituted" in the context of a "substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" means that one or more hydrogen atoms in the ZZ group are replaced with a substituent. Similarly, "substituted" in the context of a "BB group substituted with an AA group" means that one or more hydrogen atoms in the BB group are replaced with an AA group.

[0413] "When bonding to form a ring"

[0414] In this specification, the expression "one or more of the adjacent groups of two or more are bonded to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted monocyclic ring, or are bonded to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted condensed ring, or are not bonded to each other" means "one or more of the adjacent groups of two or more are bonded to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted monocyclic ring", "one or more of the adjacent groups of two or more are bonded to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted condensed ring", and "one or more of the adjacent groups of two or more are not bonded to each other".

[0415] The following describes the case where "one or more of a group of two or more adjacent groups are bonded to form a substituted or unsubstituted monocyclic ring" and the case where "one or more of a group of two or more adjacent groups are bonded to form a substituted or unsubstituted fused ring" (hereinafter, these cases are sometimes collectively referred to as "the case where they are bonded to form a ring"). This description is based on the case of an anthracene compound represented by the following general formula (TEMP-103) in which the parent skeleton is an anthracene ring.

[0416]

Chemical Formula 19

[0417]

[0418] For example, in R 921 ~R 930 In the case of "one or more groups of two or more adjacent groups are bonded to each other to form a ring", the group of two adjacent groups as one group refers to R 921 With R 922 Group, R 922 With R 923 Group, R 923 With R 924 Group, R 924 With R 930 Group, R 930 With R 925 Group, R 925 With R 926 Group, R 926 With R 927 Group, R 927 With R 928 Group, R 928 With R 929 The group, and R 929 With R 921 group.

[0419] The above “one or more groups” means that two or more groups of the above two or more adjacent groups can form a ring at the same time. 921 With R 922 bonded to form ring Q A And at the same time R 925 With R 926 bonded to form ring Q B When the anthracene compound represented by the above general formula (TEMP-103) is represented by the following general formula (TEMP-104).

[0420]

Chemical Formula 20

[0421]

[0422] The case where "a group of two or more adjacent groups" forms a ring includes not only the case where a group of "two" adjacent groups is bonded as in the above example, but also the case where a group of "three or more" adjacent groups is bonded. For example, R 921 With R 922 bonded to form ring Q A , and R 922 With R 923 bonded to form ring Q C , consisting of three adjacent (R 921 、R 922 and R 923) are bonded to each other to form a ring and fused to the anthracene mother skeleton. In this case, the anthracene compound represented by the general formula (TEMP-103) is represented by the following general formula (TEMP-105). In the following general formula (TEMP-105), ring Q A and Ring Q C Total R 922 .

[0423]

Chemical Formula 21

[0424]

[0425] In the formed "monocyclic ring" or "condensed ring", the structure of the ring formed alone may be a saturated ring or an unsaturated ring. Even when "one of the two adjacent groups" forms a "monocyclic ring" or "condensed ring", the "monocyclic ring" or "condensed ring" may form a saturated ring or an unsaturated ring. For example, in the above general formula (TEMP-104), the ring Q formed A and Ring Q B Each is a "monocyclic" or "condensed ring". In addition, the ring Q formed in the above general formula (TEMP-105) A and Ring Q C The ring Q of the above general formula (TEMP-105) is A With Ring Q C Through Ring Q A With Ring Q C The ring Q of the above general formula (TMEP-104) is fused to form a fused ring. A If it is a benzene ring, then ring Q A The ring Q of the above general formula (TMEP-104) is A If it is a naphthalene ring, then ring Q A It is a fused ring.

[0426] The "unsaturated ring" refers to an aromatic hydrocarbon ring or an aromatic heterocyclic ring. The "saturated ring" refers to an aliphatic hydrocarbon ring or a non-aromatic heterocyclic ring.

[0427] Specific examples of the aromatic hydrocarbon ring include structures in which the groups exemplified as specific examples in Specific Example Group G1 are terminated with hydrogen atoms.

[0428] Specific examples of the aromatic heterocycle include structures in which the aromatic heterocyclic groups exemplified in Specific Example Group G2 are terminated with hydrogen atoms.

[0429] Specific examples of the aliphatic hydrocarbon ring include structures in which the groups exemplified as specific examples in Specific Example Group G6 are terminated with hydrogen atoms.

[0430] "Forming a ring" means that a ring is formed only by multiple atoms of the parent skeleton, or by multiple atoms of the parent skeleton and one or more other optional elements. For example, R 921 With R 922 The ring Q formed by mutual bonding A Refers to R 921 The carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton to which it is bonded, R 922 The carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton to which the bonding occurs forms a ring with one or more optional elements. 921 With R 922 Formation of ring Q A In the case of R 921 The carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton to which it is bonded, R 922 When the carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton to which the carbon atom is bonded forms a monocyclic unsaturated ring with four carbon atoms, R 921 With R 922 The ring formed is a benzene ring.

[0431] Here, "optional element" is preferably at least one element selected from the group consisting of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur, as long as it is not otherwise described in this specification. In the optional element (for example, in the case of carbon or nitrogen), the bond that does not form a ring can be terminated by a hydrogen atom or the like, or can be substituted by an "optional substituent" described later. When an optional element other than carbon is included, the ring formed is a heterocycle.

[0481] [First embodiment]

[0482] (Organic electroluminescent element)

[0483] The organic electroluminescent element involved in this embodiment includes a first light-emitting layer and a second light-emitting layer, the first light-emitting layer includes a first host material, the second light-emitting layer includes a second host material, the first host material and the second host material are different from each other, the first light-emitting layer at least includes a compound that exhibits fluorescence with a main peak wavelength of less than 500 nm, the second light-emitting layer at least includes a compound that exhibits fluorescence with a main peak wavelength of less than 500 nm, the compound that exhibits fluorescence with a main peak wavelength of less than 500 nm contained in the first light-emitting layer and the compound that exhibits fluorescence with a main peak wavelength of less than 500 nm contained in the second light-emitting layer are the same as or different from each other, and the triplet energy T1(H1) of the first host material and the triplet energy T1(H2) of the second host material satisfy the relationship of the following mathematical formula (Mathematical Formula 1).

[0484] T1(H1)>T1(H2)...(Formula 1)

[0485] According to this embodiment, an organic electroluminescent element with improved luminous efficiency can be provided.

[0486] Triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA) is a technique used to improve the luminous efficiency of organic electroluminescent devices. TTA is a mechanism in which triplet excitons collide with each other to generate singlet excitons. The TTA mechanism is sometimes also referred to as the TTF mechanism, as described in Patent Document 4.

[0487] The TTF phenomenon is explained. Holes injected from the anode and electrons injected from the cathode recombine within the light-emitting layer to form excitons. As previously known, their spin states are split between singlet excitons (25%) and triplet excitons (75%). In conventional fluorescent devices, 25% of the singlet excitons relax to the ground state and emit light, while the remaining 75% of the triplet excitons undergo thermal deactivation and return to the ground state without emitting light. Therefore, the theoretical limit of the internal quantum efficiency of conventional fluorescent devices is said to be 25%.

[0488] On the other hand, the behavior of triplet excitons generated in organic matter has been studied theoretically. According to SM Bachilo et al. (J. Phys. Chem. A, 104, 7711 (2000)), if it is assumed that high-order excitons such as quintet immediately return to triplet state, then in the case of triplet excitons (hereinafter referred to as 3 A * ) gradually increases, triplet excitons collide with each other and the reaction shown in the following formula occurs. Here, 1 A represents the ground state, 1 A* represents the lowest excited singlet exciton.

[0489] 3 A * + 3 A * →(4 / 9) 1 A+(1 / 9) 1 A * +(13 / 9) 3 A *

[0490] That is, it becomes 5 3 A * →4 1 A+1A * , it is estimated that of the 75% of triplet excitons initially generated, 1 / 5, or 20%, will transform into singlet excitons. Therefore, the singlet excitons that contribute to light become 40%, which is the sum of the 25% initially generated plus 75% × (1 / 5) = 15%. At this point, the proportion of light emission from TTF (TTF ratio) in the total luminescence intensity becomes 15 / 40, or 37.5%. Furthermore, if the 75% of triplet excitons initially generated collide with each other to form singlet excitons (one singlet exciton is generated from two triplet excitons), a very high internal quantum efficiency of 62.5% can be achieved, which is the sum of the 25% of singlet excitons initially generated plus 75% × (1 / 2) = 37.5%. In this case, the TTF ratio is 37.5 / 62.5 = 60%.

[0491] According to the organic electroluminescent element involved in this embodiment, it is believed that for triplet excitons generated by the recombination of holes and electrons in the first light-emitting layer, even if there are excess carriers at the interface between the first light-emitting layer and the directly connected organic layer, the triplet excitons present at the interface between the first light-emitting layer and the organic layer are not easily quenched. For example, in the case where the recombination region is locally present at the interface between the first light-emitting layer and the hole transport layer or the electron blocking layer, quenching caused by excess electrons can be considered. On the other hand, in the case where the recombination region is locally present at the interface between the first light-emitting layer and the electron transport layer or the hole blocking layer, quenching caused by excess holes can be considered.

[0492] The organic electroluminescent element involved in this embodiment has at least two light-emitting layers (i.e., a first light-emitting layer and a second light-emitting layer) that satisfy a prescribed relationship, and the triplet energy T1 (H1) of the first main material in the first light-emitting layer and the triplet energy T1 (H2) of the second main material in the second light-emitting layer satisfy the relationship of the above-mentioned mathematical formula (Mathematical Formula 1).

[0493] By providing a first and second emitting layer to satisfy the relationship in the above equation (Equation 1), triplet excitons generated in the first emitting layer are not quenched by excess carriers and migrate to the second emitting layer. Furthermore, reverse migration from the second emitting layer to the first emitting layer is suppressed. As a result, singlet excitons are efficiently generated in the second emitting layer via the TTF mechanism, improving luminous efficiency.

[0494] In this way, the organic electroluminescent element has a first light-emitting layer that mainly generates triplet excitons, and a second light-emitting layer that effectively utilizes triplet excitons moved from the first light-emitting layer and mainly exhibits the TTF mechanism as different regions. As the second main material in the second light-emitting layer, a compound with a smaller triplet energy than the first main material in the first light-emitting layer is used, and the difference in triplet energy is set, thereby improving the luminous efficiency.

[0495] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the triplet energy T1(H1) of the first host material and the triplet energy T1(H2) of the second host material preferably satisfy the relationship represented by the following equation (Equation 5).

[0496] T1(H1)-T1(H2)>0.03eV...(Formula 5)

[0497] In this specification, the term "host material" refers to, for example, a material comprising "50% by mass or more of a layer." Thus, for example, the first light-emitting layer may contain at least 50% by mass of the first host material relative to the total mass of the first light-emitting layer. For example, the second light-emitting layer may contain at least 50% by mass of the second host material relative to the total mass of the second light-emitting layer.

[0498] (Emission wavelength of organic EL element)

[0499] The organic electroluminescent element according to this embodiment preferably emits light having a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less when the element is driven.

[0500] The organic electroluminescent element according to this embodiment more preferably emits light having a main peak wavelength of 430 nm to 480 nm when the element is driven.

[0501] The main peak wavelength of light emitted by the organic EL element during element driving was measured as follows: A voltage was applied to the organic EL element so that the current density reached 10 mA / cm using a spectrophotometer CS-2000 (manufactured by Konica Minolta). 2 The spectral emission brightness spectrum at the time of φ is measured. In the obtained spectral emission brightness spectrum, the peak wavelength of the luminescence spectrum at which the luminescence intensity reaches the maximum is measured and is defined as the main peak wavelength (unit: nm).

[0502] (First Light-Emitting Layer)

[0503] The first light-emitting layer includes a first host material. The first host material is a compound different from a second host material included in the second light-emitting layer.

[0504] The first emitting layer contains at least a compound that emits fluorescence with a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less. This "compound that emits fluorescence with a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less" may be the first host material or a compound different from the first host material.

[0505] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the first light-emitting layer further includes a first dopant material, and the first dopant material is preferably a fluorescent compound.

[0506] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the first dopant material is preferably a compound that does not contain an azine ring structure in its molecule.

[0507] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the first dopant material is preferably not a boron-containing complex, and more preferably not a complex.

[0508] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the first emitting layer preferably does not contain a metal complex. In addition, in the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the first emitting layer preferably does not contain a boron-containing complex.

[0509] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the first light-emitting layer preferably does not contain a phosphorescent material (dopant material).

[0510] In addition, the first light-emitting layer preferably does not contain heavy metal complexes and phosphorescent rare earth metal complexes. Examples of heavy metal complexes include iridium complexes, osmium complexes, and platinum complexes.

[0511] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the first dopant material is preferably a compound that emits fluorescence having a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less.

[0512] The method for determining 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 added to a quartz colorimetric cell, and the luminescence spectrum of the sample is measured at room temperature (300K) (the vertical axis is set to luminescence intensity and the horizontal axis is set to wavelength). The luminescence spectrum can be measured by a spectrofluorophotometer (device name: F-7000) manufactured by Hitachi High-Tech Scientific Co., Ltd. It should be noted that the luminescence spectrum measuring device is not limited to the device used here.

[0513] In the emission spectrum, the peak wavelength of the emission spectrum where the emission intensity reaches the maximum is referred to as the main peak wavelength. In this specification, the main peak wavelength is sometimes referred to as the fluorescence emission main peak wavelength (FL-peak).

[0514] In the emission spectrum of the first dopant material, the peak with the highest emission intensity is defined as the main peak. When the height of the main peak is set to 1, the heights of other peaks appearing in the emission spectrum are preferably less than 0.6. It should be noted that the peaks in the emission spectrum are defined as the maximum values.

[0515] Furthermore, in the emission spectrum of the first dopant material, the number of peaks is preferably less than three.

[0516] In the organic EL element according to this embodiment, the first light-emitting layer preferably emits light having a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less when the element is driven.

[0517] The main peak wavelength of light emitted from the light emitting layer during device driving was measured by the method described in the section of Examples to be described later.

[0518] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the singlet energy S1(H1) of the first host material and the singlet energy S1(D1) of the first dopant material preferably satisfy the relationship represented by the following equation (Equation 2).

[0519] S1(H1)>S1(D1)...(Formula 2)

[0520] The singlet energy S1 refers to the energy difference between the lowest excited singlet state and the ground state.

[0521] When the first host material and the first dopant material satisfy the relationship of the above formula (Formula 2), singlet excitons generated in the first host material easily transfer energy from the first host material to the first dopant material, thereby contributing to the fluorescent emission of the first dopant material.

[0522] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the triplet energy T1(H1) of the first host material and the triplet energy T1(D1) of the first dopant material preferably satisfy the relationship represented by the following equation (Equation 2A).

[0523] T1(D1)>T1(H1)...(Mathematical formula 2A)

[0524] The first host material and the first dopant material satisfy the relationship of the above-mentioned mathematical formula (Mathematical Formula 2A), whereby the triplet excitons generated in the first light-emitting layer do not move on the first dopant material with higher triplet energy, but move on the first host material, and are therefore easily moved to the second light-emitting layer.

[0525] The organic EL element according to this embodiment preferably satisfies the relationship of the following mathematical formula (Mathematical Formula 2B).

[0526] T1(D1)>T1(H1)>T1(H2)...(Formula 2B)

[0527] (Triplet energy T1)

[0528] As a method for measuring the triplet energy T1, the following method can be mentioned.

[0529] The compound to be measured was dissolved in EPA (diethyl ether: isopentane: ethanol = 5:5:2 (volume ratio)) to give a volume of 10 -5 mol / L and above 10 -4 mol / L or less, and the solution was added to a quartz colorimetric cell as a measurement sample. For this measurement sample, the phosphorescence spectrum was measured at a low temperature (77 [K]) (the vertical axis is the phosphorescence intensity, and the horizontal axis is the wavelength). A tangent line was drawn on the short wavelength side of the phosphorescence spectrum, and the wavelength value λ based on the intersection of the tangent line and the horizontal axis was calculated. edge [nm], and the energy calculated according to the following conversion formula (F1) is referred to as triplet energy T1.

[0530] Conversion formula (F1): T1 [eV] = 1239.85 / λ edge

[0531] The tangent line to the short-wavelength rise of the phosphorus spectrum is derived as follows. As the spectrum curve moves from the short-wavelength side of the phosphorus spectrum to the shortest-wavelength maximum among the spectral maxima, the tangent line at each point on the curve is considered toward the long-wavelength side. The slope of this tangent line increases as the curve rises (i.e., as the vertical axis increases). The tangent line drawn at the point where this slope reaches its maximum (i.e., the tangent line at the inflection point) is used as the tangent line to the short-wavelength rise of the phosphorus spectrum.

[0532] It should be noted that the maximum point with a peak intensity of less than 15% of the maximum peak intensity of the spectrum is not included in the above-mentioned maximum value on the shortest wavelength side, and the tangent drawn at the point where the slope value is the maximum value and is closest to the maximum value on the shortest wavelength side is used as the tangent of the rise on the short wavelength side of the phosphorus spectrum.

[0533] Phosphorescence can be measured using the F-4500 spectrofluorophotometer manufactured by Hitachi High-Technologies Co., Ltd. However, the measuring device is not limited thereto, and measurement can be performed using a combination of a cooling device, a low-temperature container, an excitation light source, and a light receiving device.

[0534] (Singlet energy S1)

[0535] As a method for measuring the singlet energy S1 using a solution (sometimes referred to as a solution method), the following method can be mentioned.

[0536] Prepare 10 of the compound to be measured -5 mol / L and above 10 -4 A toluene solution with a concentration of less than 1 mol / L was added to a quartz colorimetric cell, and the absorption spectrum of the sample was measured at room temperature (300K) (absorption intensity on the vertical axis, wavelength on the horizontal axis). A tangent line was drawn on the long-wavelength side of the absorption spectrum, and the wavelength λedge [nm] at the intersection of the tangent line and the horizontal axis was substituted into the conversion formula (F2) shown below to calculate the singlet energy.

[0537] Conversion formula (F2): S1 [eV] = 1239.85 / λedge

[0538] As an absorption spectrum measuring device, for example, a spectrophotometer manufactured by Hitachi, Ltd. (device name: U3310) can be cited, but the device is not limited thereto.

[0539] The tangent line for the long-wavelength drop of the absorption spectrum is derived as follows. As the spectrum curve moves along the long-wavelength direction from the maximum value on the longest wavelength side of the absorption spectrum maximum, the tangent line at each point on the curve is considered. As the curve drops (i.e., as the value on the vertical axis decreases), the slope of this tangent line repeatedly decreases and then increases. The tangent line drawn at the point where the slope reaches its minimum on the longest wavelength side (excluding absorbance values ​​of 0.1 or less) is considered the tangent line for the long-wavelength drop of the absorption spectrum.

[0540] It should be noted that the maximum point where the absorbance value is 0.2 or less is not included in the maximum value on the longest wavelength side.

[0541] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, it is also preferable that the electron mobility μH1 of the first host material and the electron mobility μH2 of the second host material satisfy the relationship represented by the following mathematical formula (Formula 6).

[0542] μH2>μH1...(Formula 6)

[0543] When the first host material and the second host material satisfy the relationship of the above-mentioned mathematical formula (Mathematical Formula 6), the recombination ability of holes and electrons in the first light-emitting layer is improved.

[0544] The electron mobility can be measured using impedance spectroscopy by the following method.

[0545] The anode and cathode are used to clamp the measurement object layer with a thickness of 100nm to 200nm, and a small AC voltage of less than 100mV is applied while applying a bias DC voltage. The AC current value (absolute value and phase) flowing at this time is measured. This measurement is performed while changing the frequency of the AC voltage, and the complex impedance (Z) is calculated based on the current value and the voltage value. At this time, the frequency dependence of the imaginary part (ImM) of the modulus M=iωZ (i: imaginary unit, ω: angular frequency) is obtained, and the reciprocal of the frequency ω at which ImM reaches the maximum value is defined as the response time of the electrons conducted in the measurement object layer. Then, the electron mobility is calculated by the following formula.

[0546] Electron mobility = (thickness of the layer to be measured) 2 / (Response time·Voltage)

[0547] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the first dopant material preferably contains more than 1.1% by mass of the first light-emitting layer. Specifically, the first dopant material preferably contains more than 1.1% by mass of the total mass of the first light-emitting layer, more preferably 1.2% by mass or more, and even more preferably 1.5% by mass or more of the total mass of the first light-emitting layer.

[0548] The first dopant material content in the first light-emitting layer is preferably 10% by mass or less, more preferably 7% by mass or less, and even more preferably 5% by mass or less of the total mass of the first light-emitting layer.

[0549] In the organic EL element involved in this embodiment, in the first light-emitting layer, the content of the first compound serving as the first host material is preferably 60 mass% or more of the total mass of the first light-emitting layer, more preferably 70 mass% or more of the total mass of the first light-emitting layer, further preferably 80 mass% or more of the total mass of the first light-emitting layer, further preferably 90 mass% or more of the total mass of the first light-emitting layer, and even more preferably 95 mass% or more of the total mass of the first light-emitting layer.

[0550] In the first light-emitting layer, the content of the first host material is preferably 99 mass % or less of the total mass of the first light-emitting layer.

[0551] However, when the first light-emitting layer contains a first host material and a first dopant material, the upper limit of the total content of the first host material and the first dopant material is 100 mass %.

[0552] It should be noted that this embodiment does not exclude the inclusion of materials other than the first host material and the first dopant material in the first light-emitting layer.

[0553] The first light-emitting layer may contain only one first host material or two or more first host materials. The first light-emitting layer may contain only one first dopant material or two or more first dopant materials.

[0554] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the thickness of the first light-emitting layer is preferably 3 nm or greater, more preferably 5 nm or greater. A thickness of 3 nm or greater is sufficient to induce recombination of holes and electrons in the first light-emitting layer.

[0555] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the thickness of the first light-emitting layer is preferably 15 nm or less, more preferably 10 nm or less. A thickness of 15 nm or less is thin enough to allow triplet excitons to migrate to the second light-emitting layer.

[0556] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the thickness of the first light-emitting layer is more preferably not less than 3 nm and not more than 15 nm.

[0557] (Second light-emitting layer)

[0558] The second light-emitting layer includes a second host material. The second host material is a compound different from the first host material included in the first light-emitting layer.

[0559] The second emitting layer contains at least a compound that emits fluorescence with a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less. This "compound that emits fluorescence with a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less" may be the second host material or a compound different from the second host material.

[0560] The method for determining the peak wavelength of the main peak of the compound is as described above.

[0561] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, it is preferred that the second light-emitting layer further contains a second dopant material, and the second dopant material is a fluorescent compound.

[0562] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the second dopant material is preferably a compound that emits fluorescence having a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less.

[0563] In the organic EL element according to this embodiment, the second light-emitting layer preferably emits light having a main peak wavelength of 500 nm or less when the element is driven.

[0564] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the half-value width of the main peak of the second dopant material is preferably not less than 1 nm and not more than 20 nm.

[0565] In the organic EL element according to this embodiment, the Stokes shift of the second dopant material preferably exceeds 7 nm.

[0566] If the Stokes shift of the second dopant material exceeds 7 nm, it is easy to prevent a decrease in luminous efficiency due to self-absorption.

[0567] Self-absorption refers to the phenomenon in which the same compound absorbs emitted light, resulting in a decrease in luminous efficiency. Since significant self-absorption is observed in compounds with small Stokes shifts (i.e., large overlap between the absorption and fluorescence spectra), it is preferable to use compounds with large Stokes shifts (minimal overlap between the absorption and fluorescence spectra) to suppress self-absorption. The Stokes shift can be measured using the method described in the Examples.

[0568] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the triplet energy T1(D2) of the second dopant material and the triplet energy T1(H2) of the second host material preferably satisfy the relationship expressed by the following equation (Equation 3).

[0569] T1(D2)>T1(H2)...(Formula 3)

[0570] In the organic EL element according to this embodiment, the second dopant material and the second host material satisfy the relationship described in the above mathematical formula (Mathematical Formula 3). Therefore, when triplet excitons generated in the first light-emitting layer migrate to the second light-emitting layer, they transfer their energy to the molecules of the second host material, not to the second dopant material having a higher triplet energy. Furthermore, triplet excitons generated by recombination of holes and electrons in the second host material do not migrate to the second dopant material having a higher triplet energy. Instead, triplet excitons generated by recombination on molecules of the second dopant material rapidly transfer their energy to molecules of the second host material.

[0571] The triplet excitons passing through the second host material do not move to the second dopant material but the triplet excitons efficiently collide with each other on the second host material by the TTF phenomenon, thereby generating singlet excitons.

[0572] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the singlet energy S1(H2) of the second host material and the singlet energy S1(D2) of the second dopant material preferably satisfy the relationship expressed by the following equation (Equation 4).

[0573] S1(H2)>S1(D2)...(Formula 4)

[0574] In the organic EL element involved in this embodiment, the second dopant material and the second main material satisfy the relationship of the above-mentioned mathematical formula (Mathematical Formula 4), so that the singlet energy of the second dopant material is smaller than the singlet energy of the second main material. Therefore, the singlet excitons generated by the TTF phenomenon transfer energy from the second main material to the second dopant material, which contributes to the fluorescent luminescence of the second dopant material.

[0575] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the second dopant material is preferably a compound that does not contain an azine ring structure in its molecule.

[0576] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the second dopant material is preferably not a boron-containing complex, and more preferably not a complex.

[0577] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the second emitting layer preferably does not contain a metal complex. In addition, in the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the second emitting layer preferably does not contain a boron-containing complex.

[0578] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the second light-emitting layer preferably does not contain a phosphorescent material (dopant material).

[0579] In addition, the second light-emitting layer preferably does not contain heavy metal complexes and phosphorescent rare earth metal complexes. Examples of heavy metal complexes include iridium complexes, osmium complexes, and platinum complexes.

[0580] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the second dopant material preferably has a content exceeding 1.1% by mass in the second light-emitting layer. Specifically, the second dopant material preferably has a content exceeding 1.1% by mass of the total mass of the second light-emitting layer, more preferably 1.2% by mass or greater, and even more preferably 1.5% by mass or greater.

[0581] In the second light-emitting layer, the content of the second dopant material is preferably less than 10 mass % of the total mass of the second light-emitting layer, more preferably less than 7 mass % of the total mass of the second light-emitting layer, and further preferably less than 5 mass % of the total mass of the second light-emitting layer.

[0582] In the second light-emitting layer, the content of the second compound serving as the second host material is preferably 60% by mass or more of the total mass of the second light-emitting layer, more preferably 70% by mass or more of the total mass of the second light-emitting layer, further preferably 80% by mass or more of the total mass of the second light-emitting layer, further preferably 90% by mass or more of the total mass of the second light-emitting layer, and even more preferably 95% by mass or more of the total mass of the second light-emitting layer.

[0583] In the second light-emitting layer, the content of the second host material is preferably 99% by mass or less of the total mass of the second light-emitting layer.

[0584] When the second light-emitting layer contains a second host material and a second dopant material, the upper limit of the total content of the second host material and the second dopant material is 100 mass %.

[0585] It should be noted that this embodiment does not exclude the inclusion of materials other than the second host material and the second dopant material in the second light-emitting layer.

[0586] The second light-emitting layer may contain only one type of second host material or two or more types of second host material. The second light-emitting layer may contain only one type of second dopant material or two or more types of second dopant material.

[0587] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the second light-emitting layer preferably has a thickness of 5 nm or greater, more preferably 15 nm or greater. A thickness of 5 nm or greater in the second light-emitting layer effectively prevents triplet excitons that migrate from the first light-emitting layer to the second light-emitting layer from returning to the first light-emitting layer. Furthermore, a thickness of 5 nm or greater in the second light-emitting layer effectively separates triplet excitons from the recombination sites in the first light-emitting layer.

[0588] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the second emitting layer preferably has a thickness of 20 nm or less. If the thickness of the second emitting layer is 20 nm or less, the density of triplet excitons in the second emitting layer can be increased, making the TTF phenomenon more likely to occur.

[0651] The structure of the organic EL element 1 will be further described. In the following, reference numerals may be omitted.

[0652] (Substrate)

[0653] The substrate is used as a support for the organic EL element. As the substrate, for example, glass, quartz, and plastic can be used. In addition, a flexible substrate can be used. A flexible substrate refers to a (flexible) substrate that can be bent. For example, a plastic substrate can be mentioned. As materials forming the plastic substrate, for example, polycarbonate, polyarylate, polyethersulfone, polypropylene, polyester, polyvinyl fluoride, polyvinyl chloride, polyimide, and polyethylene naphthalate can be mentioned. In addition, an inorganic vapor-deposited film can also be used.

[0654] (anode)

[0655] The anode formed on the substrate is preferably made of a metal, alloy, conductive compound, or mixture thereof having a large work function (specifically, 4.0 eV or greater). Specifically, examples include indium oxide-tin oxide (ITO), indium oxide-tin oxide containing silicon or silicon oxide, indium oxide-zinc oxide, indium oxide containing tungsten oxide and zinc oxide, and graphene. Other 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 metal materials (e.g., titanium nitride).

[0656] These materials are usually formed into films by sputtering. For example, indium oxide-zinc oxide can be formed by sputtering using a target to which zinc oxide is added at 1% by mass or more and 10% by mass or less relative to indium oxide. In addition, for example, indium oxide containing tungsten oxide and zinc oxide can be formed by sputtering using a target to which tungsten oxide is added at 0.5% by mass or less and 5% by mass or less relative to indium oxide and zinc oxide is added at 0.1% by mass or less and 1% by mass or less relative to indium oxide. In addition, it can also be produced by vacuum evaporation, coating, inkjet, spin coating, etc.

[0657] Among the EL layers formed on the anode, the hole injection layer formed in contact with the anode is formed using a composite material that easily injects holes regardless of the work function of the anode. Therefore, materials that can serve as electrode materials (such as metals, alloys, conductive compounds and mixtures thereof, and also including elements belonging to the first or second group of the periodic table) can be used.

[0658] It is also possible to use elements belonging to the first or second group of the periodic table as materials with a small work function, i.e., alkali metals such as lithium (Li) and cesium (Cs), and alkaline earth metals such as magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), and strontium (Sr), and alloys thereof (e.g., MgAg, AlLi), rare earth metals such as europium (Eu), and ytterbium (Yb), and alloys thereof. It should be noted that when forming the anode using alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, and alloys thereof, vacuum evaporation or sputtering can be used. In addition, when using silver paste or the like, a coating method, an inkjet method, etc. can be used.

[0659] (cathode)

[0660] The cathode is preferably made of a metal, alloy, conductive compound, or mixture thereof having a small work function (specifically, 3.8 eV or less).

[0661] It should be noted that when an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, or an alloy thereof is used to form the cathode, vacuum deposition or sputtering can be used. Furthermore, when silver paste is used, coating or inkjet methods can be used.

[0662] It should be noted that by providing an electron injection layer, a variety of conductive materials such as Al, Ag, ITO, graphene, indium oxide-tin oxide containing silicon or silicon oxide can be used to form the cathode regardless of the size of the work function. These conductive materials can be formed into films using sputtering, inkjet, spin coating, etc.

[0670] It should be noted that as long as the hole transport property is higher than that of the electron, other substances may also be used. It should be noted that the layer containing the substance with high hole transport property may be not only a single layer but also a stack of two or more layers formed by stacking the above substances.

Alkali metals, alkaline earth metals or compounds thereof such as lithium (Li), cesium (Cs), calcium (Ca), lithium fluoride (LiF), cesium fluoride (CsF), calcium fluoride (CaF2), lithium oxide (LiOx) etc. can be used in the electron injection layer. In addition, a material formed by containing an alkali metal, alkaline earth metal or a compound thereof in a substance having electron transportability can also be used, specifically a material formed by containing magnesium (Mg) in Alq etc. can be used. It should be noted that electron injection from the cathode can be more efficiently performed at this time.

[0676] Alternatively, a composite material mixed with an organic compound and an electron donor (donor) can also be used in the electron injection layer. Such a composite material has excellent electron injection and electron transport properties because it generates electrons in the organic compound through the electron donor. At this time, as an organic compound, it is preferably a material with excellent transport of the generated electrons. Specifically, for example, the above-mentioned substances (metal complexes, heteroaromatic compounds, etc.) constituting the electron transport layer can be used. As an electron donor, it is as long as it is a substance that shows electron donating properties for the organic compound. Specifically, alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, and rare earth metals are preferred, and lithium, cesium, magnesium, calcium, erbium, ytterbium, etc. can be mentioned. In addition, alkali metal oxides and alkaline earth metal oxides are preferred, and lithium oxide, calcium oxide, barium oxide, etc. can be mentioned. In addition, a Lewis base such as magnesium oxide can also be used. In addition, organic compounds such as tetrathiafulvalene (abbreviated as: TTF) can also be used.

[0677] (Layer Formation Method)

[0678] The method for forming each layer of the organic EL element of this embodiment is not limited except for those specifically mentioned above, and well-known methods such as dry film-forming methods such as vacuum evaporation, sputtering, plasma, and ion plating, and wet film-forming methods such as spin coating, dip coating, flow coating, and inkjet can be used.

[0679] (film thickness)

[0680] The thickness of each organic layer in the organic EL element of this embodiment is not limited except for the cases specifically mentioned above. Generally speaking, if the film thickness is too thin, defects such as pinholes are likely to occur, while if the film thickness is too thick, a high applied voltage is required, which degrades efficiency. Therefore, the film thickness of each organic layer in an organic EL element is generally preferably in the range of several nanometers to 1 μm.

[0681] (first host material, second host material and third host material)

[0682] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the first host material, the second host material, and the third host material may be, for example, a first compound represented by the following general formula (1), (1X), (12X), (13X), (14X), (15X), or (16X), and a second compound represented by the following general formula (2). Alternatively, the first compound may be used as both the first and second host materials. In this case, for convenience, the compound represented by the following general formula (1) or the following general formula (1X), (12X), (13X), (14X), (15X), or (16X) used as the second host material may be referred to as the second compound.

[1344] In the organic EL element involved in this embodiment, it is also preferred that the first main material has a connection structure in the molecule comprising a benzene ring and a naphthalene ring connected by a single bond, the benzene ring and the naphthalene ring in the connection structure are further independently fused with a single ring or a condensed ring or are not fused, and the benzene ring and the naphthalene ring in the connection structure are further connected by cross-linking in at least one part other than the single bond.

[1345] Since the first host material has such a connection structure including cross-linking, it can be expected that the chromaticity deterioration of the organic EL element can be suppressed.

[1346] In this case, the first host material only needs to have a connection structure (sometimes referred to as a benzene-naphthalene connection structure) comprising a benzene ring and a naphthalene ring connected by a single bond as shown in the following formula (X1) or formula (X2) as the minimum unit in the molecule. A monocyclic ring or a condensed ring may be further fused to the benzene ring, and a monocyclic ring or a condensed ring may be further fused to the naphthalene ring. For example, for the first host material, since one of the naphthalene rings in the connection structure (sometimes referred to as a naphthalene-naphthalene connection structure) comprising a naphthalene ring and a naphthalene ring connected by a single bond as shown in the following formula (X3), formula (X4) or formula (X5) contains a benzene ring, the benzene-naphthalene connection structure is also contained in the molecule.

[1347]

Chemical Formula 42

[1348]

[1349] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the crosslinking structure preferably includes a double bond. In other words, the benzene ring and the naphthalene ring are preferably further connected at portions other than the single bond via a crosslinking structure including a double bond.

[1350] If the benzene ring and the naphthalene ring in the benzene-naphthalene connection structure are further connected by cross-linking at at least one part other than the single bond, for example, in the case of the above-mentioned formula (X1), a connection structure (condensed ring) represented by the following formula (X11) is formed, and in the case of the above-mentioned formula (X3), a connection structure (condensed ring) represented by the following formula (X31) is formed.

[1351] If the benzene ring and the naphthalene ring in the benzene-naphthalene connection structure are further connected by a cross-link containing a double bond at the part other than the single bond, then, for example, in the case of the above-mentioned formula (X1), a connection structure (condensed ring) represented by the following formula (X12) is formed; in the case of the above-mentioned formula (X2), a connection structure (condensed ring) represented by the following formula (X21) or formula (X22) is formed; in the case of the above-mentioned formula (X4), a connection structure (condensed ring) represented by the following formula (X41) is formed; and in the case of the above-mentioned formula (X5), a connection structure (condensed ring) represented by the following formula (X51) is formed.

[1352] If the benzene ring and the naphthalene ring in the benzene-naphthalene link structure are further linked by a crosslink containing a heteroatom (e.g., an oxygen atom) at at least one portion other than the single bond, then, for example, in the case of the above-mentioned formula (X1), a link structure (condensed ring) represented by the following formula (X13) is formed.

[1353]

Chemical Formula 43

[1354]

[1355] In the organic EL element involved in this embodiment, it is also preferred that the first host material has a biphenyl structure in the molecule in which the first benzene ring and the second benzene ring are connected by a single bond, and the first benzene ring and the second benzene ring in the biphenyl structure are further connected by cross-linking in at least one part other than the single bond.

[1356] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the first benzene ring and the second benzene ring in the biphenyl structure are preferably further connected by the crosslink at a portion other than the single bond. By having such a crosslinked biphenyl structure as the first host material, it is expected that degradation of the chromaticity of the organic EL device can be suppressed.

[1357] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, it is also preferable that the crosslink contains a double bond.

[1358] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, it is also preferable that the crosslinking does not include a double bond.

[1359] It is also preferred that the first benzene ring and the second benzene ring in the biphenyl structure are further connected by the crosslinking at two portions other than the single bond.

[1360] In the organic EL device according to this embodiment, the first benzene ring and the second benzene ring in the biphenyl structure are preferably further connected by the crosslink at two portions other than the single bond, and the crosslink does not include a double bond. By having such a crosslinked biphenyl structure as the first host material, it is expected that degradation of the chromaticity of the organic EL device can be suppressed.

[1361] For example, if the first benzene ring and the second benzene ring in the biphenyl structure represented by the following formula (BP1) are further connected by cross-linking at at least one portion other than a single bond, the biphenyl structure forms a connected structure (condensed ring) such as the following formulas (BP11) to (BP15).

[1362]

Chemical Formula 44

[1363]

[1364] The above formula (BP11) is a structure in which one portion other than the above single bond is connected by a cross-linking that does not contain a double bond.

[1365] The above formula (BP12) is a structure in which one portion other than the above single bond is connected by a crosslink containing a double bond.

[1366] The above formula (BP13) is a structure in which two moieties other than the above single bond are connected by a crosslink containing no double bond.

[1367] The above formula (BP14) has a structure in which one of the two parts other than the single bond is connected by a crosslink not containing a double bond, and the other of the two parts other than the single bond is connected by a crosslink containing a double bond.

[1368] The above formula (BP15) is a structure in which two moieties other than the above single bond are connected by a crosslink containing a double bond.

[1369] In the first compound and the second compound, the groups described as "substituted or unsubstituted" are preferably "unsubstituted" groups.
