[0094] Organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) are active-matrix light-emitting devices with advantages such as light emission, ultra-thinness, wide viewing angle, high brightness, high contrast, low power consumption, and extremely fast response speed. They have gradually become a promising next-generation display technology. An OLED includes an anode, a cathode, and an organic light-emitting layer disposed between the anode and cathode. Its light-emitting principle involves injecting holes and electrons from the anode and cathode, respectively, into the organic light-emitting layer. When electrons and holes meet in the organic light-emitting layer, they recombine to generate excitons. These excitons emit light as they transition from the excited state to the ground state.

[0095] Based on the direction of light emission, OLED devices can be divided into bottom-emitting OLED devices and top-emitting OLED devices. In bottom-emitting devices, light is emitted from the substrate, with the reflective electrode above the organic light-emitting layer and the transparent electrode below it. The thin-film transistor portion of a bottom-emitting OLED device cannot transmit light, resulting in a smaller light-emitting area. In top-emitting devices, the transparent electrode is above the organic light-emitting layer, and the reflective electrode is below it, so light is emitted from the opposite direction of the substrate, thus increasing the light-transmitting area. Therefore, current OLED devices are predominantly top-emitting.

[0096] Top-emitting OLED (OLED) devices utilize a reflective anode and a transparent cathode, employing a microcavity effect to enhance light extraction efficiency. In this device, a capping layer is placed above the cathode, creating a combination of high and low refractive indices for improved light extraction. However, in related technologies, the capping layer has a low refractive index in the visible light range, resulting in low light extraction efficiency and limited effectiveness in improving the OLED device's luminous efficiency. Consequently, the OLED device's luminous performance fails to meet user needs. Furthermore, the capping layer absorbs relatively little ultraviolet light from the external environment, making it difficult to prevent damage to internal components from ultraviolet radiation, leading to a shorter OLED device lifespan and impacting the user experience.

[0097] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment of the present disclosure provides an organic light-emitting device, including a first electrode layer 100, a light-emitting functional layer 300, a second electrode layer 200, and a capping layer 400 sequentially stacked. The capping layer 400 includes a first capping layer material and a second capping layer material. The first capping layer material and the second capping layer material satisfy the following conditions:

[0100] n1(λ3)-n2(λ3)≥0.1, 600nm≤λ3≤640nm;

[0101] The light-emitting functional layer 300 includes a hole transport layer 321, an organic light-emitting layer 330, and an electron transport layer 350 sequentially stacked along a direction away from the first electrode layer 100. The hole transport layer 321, the organic light-emitting layer 330, and the electron transport layer 350 satisfy the following conditions:

[0105] 0.1≤n5(λ3)-n4(λ3)≤0.8;

[0106] Wherein, λ1, λ2, and λ3 represent different wavelength ranges of light;

[0108] n3 represents the refractive index of the hole transport layer 321, n4 represents the refractive index of the organic light-emitting layer 330, and n5 represents the refractive index of the electron transport layer 350.

[0109] The organic light-emitting device disclosed herein uses a first capping layer material with a high refractive index and a second capping layer material with a low refractive index. The refractive indices of the first and second capping layer materials satisfy different difference relationships in different wavelength ranges. This difference relationship helps to improve the optical coupling efficiency of the organic light-emitting device, improve the light emission mode, and achieve higher light extraction efficiency. Furthermore, by adjusting the refractive index relationship of the hole transport layer 321, the organic light-emitting layer 330, and the electron transport layer 350, the light extraction efficiency of the device is further improved.

[0110] The components of the organic light-emitting device provided in this disclosure embodiment will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0111] The organic light-emitting device disclosed herein includes a first electrode layer 100, a light-emitting functional layer 300, a second electrode layer 200, and a capping layer 400 stacked sequentially.

[0112] The first electrode layer 100 can serve as the anode of the light-emitting device. Optionally, the anode includes anode materials, preferably those with a high work function that facilitates hole injection into the functional layer. Specific examples of anode materials include: metals such as nickel, platinum, vanadium, chromium, copper, zinc, and gold, or alloys thereof; metal oxides such as zinc oxide, indium oxide, indium tin oxide (ITO), and indium zinc oxide (IZO); combinations of metals and oxides such as ZnO:Al or SnO2:Sb; or conductive polymers such as poly(3-methylthiophene), poly[3,4-(ethylene-1,2-dioxy)thiophene] (PEDT), polypyrrole, and polyaniline, but are not limited thereto. Preferably, a transparent electrode comprising indium tin oxide (ITO) as the anode is included.

[0113] The second electrode layer 200 can serve as the cathode of the light-emitting device. The cathode is preferably made of a material with a low work function to facilitate electron injection into the organic light-emitting layer 330, while also possessing good light transmittance and conductivity. Specific examples of cathode materials that can be used in this disclosure include: metals, metal oxides, and metal alloys, such as aluminum (Al), silver (Ag), gold (Au), magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), ytterbium (Yb), indium (In), lithium (Li), potassium (K), sodium (Na), tin (Sn), titanium (Ti), lead (Pb), samarium (Sm), yttrium (Y), indium tin oxide (ITO), magnesium-silver alloy (Mg:Ag), and ytterbium-gold alloy (Yb:Au).

[0114] The light-emitting functional layer 300 may include a hole transport layer 321, an organic light-emitting layer 330, and an electron transport layer 350, which are sequentially stacked along a direction away from the first electrode layer 100. Holes are injected into the organic light-emitting layer 330 by the anode and the hole transport layer 321, and electrons are injected into the organic light-emitting layer 330 by the cathode and the electron transport layer 350. When electrons and holes meet in the organic light-emitting layer 330, they recombine to generate excitons. These excitons emit light as they transition from the excited state to the ground state.

[0115] A capping layer 400 is disposed on the side of the second electrode layer 200 away from the first electrode layer 100. The capping layer 400 comprises a first capping layer material and a second capping layer material. It should be noted that the capping layer 400 can be formed by mixing the first and second capping layer materials and then performing a film-forming process. Alternatively, the first capping layer can be formed from the first capping layer material, and the second capping layer can be formed from the second capping layer material, with the second capping layer disposed on the side of the first capping layer away from the first electrode layer 100. Both the second and second capping layer materials can improve the luminous efficiency of the device.

[0116] In this disclosure, the first cover layer material and the second cover layer material satisfy the following:

[0117] n1(λ1)-n2(λ1)≥0.2, 440nm≤λ1≤480nm;

[0120] Wherein, λ1, λ2, and λ3 represent different wavelength ranges of light;

When the refractive indices of the second capping layer material and the second capping layer material satisfy the above relationship, the cooperation between the second capping layer material and the second capping layer material helps to improve the optical coupling efficiency of the device, improve the light emission mode, and enable the light that was originally confined inside the device to be emitted out of the device, thus exhibiting higher light extraction efficiency.

[0238] The main material for the green organic light-emitting layer can be selected from coumarin dyes, quinacridone copper derivatives, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, diamine anthracene derivatives, and carbazole derivatives, such as DMQA (N,N'-dimethylquinacridone), BA-NPB (N,N'-di-1-naphthyl-N,N'-diphenyl-[9,9'-bianthra]-10,10'-diamine; N1,N1'-diphenyl-N1,N1'-dinaphthyl-9,9'-bianthra-1,1'-diamine), Alq3 (8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum), CBP (4,4'-bis(N-carbazole)-1,1'-biphenyl), etc. Doping materials can be metal complexes, such as Ir(ppy)3 (tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium | 94928-86-6) and Ir(ppy)2(acac) (di(2-phenylpyridine)iridium acetylacetonate), etc.

[0239] The main material for the red organic light-emitting layer can be selected from materials in the DCM series, such as DCJTB (2-{2-tert-butyl-6-[2-(1,1,7,7-tetramethyl-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1H,5H-benzo[ij]quinazine-9-yl)vinyl]-4H-pyran-4-ylidene} malononitrile), DCJTI (2-{2-isopropyl-6-[2-(1,1,7,7-tetramethyl-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1H,5H-benzo[ij]quinazine-9-yl)vinyl]-4H-pyran-4-ylidene} malononitrile), etc. The doping material can be a metal complex, such as Ir(piq)2(acac) (:bis(1-phenyl-isoquinoline)(acetylacetone)iridium(III)), PtOEP (platinum(II)octaethylporphyrin), Ir(btp)2 (acac) (bis(2-(2'-benzothiophene)pyridine-N,C3')(acetylacetone)iridium), etc.

[0241] Furthermore, the light-emitting functional layer 300 may also include an electron injection layer 360 disposed between the cathode and the electron transport layer 350. The electron injection layer 360 is preferably a material with electron transport capability and also has the effect of injecting electrons from the cathode, and has excellent thin film forming capability. It is generally an alkali metal or a metal, such as LiF, Yb, Mg, Ca or their compounds.

[0242] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of this disclosure, the capping layer 400 includes a first capping layer 410 and a second capping layer 420 stacked along a direction away from the first electrode layer. The first capping layer 410 contains the first capping layer material, and the second capping layer 420 contains the second capping layer material. The molecular orientation of the first capping layer 410 is between -0.5 and -0.2. Specifically, it can be -0.5, -0.45, -0.4, -0.35, -0.3, -0.25, or -0.2, but is not limited thereto.

[0243] The ordered orientation of molecules is one of the most important properties of thin films in small-molecule organic optoelectronic materials. There are generally two types of molecular orientation relative to the substrate: upright orientation and parallel orientation. In organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs), photons are emitted outward from the organic light-emitting layer, and most are lost due to total internal reflection. Changing the orientation of organic light-emitting molecules can alter the emission angle of the emitting dipoles, thereby reducing total internal reflection and allowing more photons to be emitted effectively. Horizontal orientation of emitting molecules improves the optical performance of OLEDs because the direction of molecular emission is generally perpendicular to the molecular orientation. Therefore, ordered molecules along a specific direction imply a specific emission direction, which can improve device efficiency. Molecular orientation not only affects the optical properties of emitting molecules but also their electrical properties. Horizontally oriented molecules often have better electron mobility, which can also improve device efficiency. With the gradual development of organic optoelectronic technology, especially in the fields of organic light-emitting devices and organic display technology, the issue of organic molecular orientation has gradually attracted attention, leading to the development of methods for measuring and characterizing organic molecular orientation.

[0244] A common method for testing molecular orientation is to measure and calculate the order parameter S using an ellipsometry to characterize changes in molecular orientation in thin films, such as the first capping layer. The formula for calculating molecular orientation is as follows:

[0245]

[0246] This represents the angle between the molecular dipole axis and the normal to the base plane; Indicates the extinction coefficient in the vertical direction; This represents the extinction coefficient in the horizontal direction.

[0247] This disclosure also provides a display device, including the aforementioned organic light-emitting device. The display device can be: a mobile phone, tablet computer, television, monitor, laptop computer, digital photo frame or navigator, or any other product or component with display function.

[0248] The organic light-emitting devices provided in this disclosure will be described in detail below, based on specific experimental data and other information.

[0249] Coating material property testing

[0250] Refractive index

[0251] Refractive index is an important physical parameter of the coating material, and its magnitude directly determines the optical coupling efficiency of the device.

[0252] The refractive index was determined using an ellipsometer; the instrument scanning range was 245–1000 nm; a thin film was deposited on a silicon wafer with a film thickness of 50 nm. The refractive indices of the first capping layer material at different wavelengths are shown in Table 1, and the refractive indices of the second capping layer material at different wavelengths are shown in Table 2.

[0253] Table 1

[0254]

[0255] As can be seen from the data in Table 1, the first capping layer material has a higher refractive index. Comparing compounds 1-1 and 1-5, it can be seen that the more benzene rings contained in the structure shown in chemical formula 1-1, the higher the refractive index of the corresponding material molecule. Comparing compounds 1-5 and 1-6, it can be seen that the more structures shown in chemical formula 1-2 the material molecule contains, the higher the refractive index of the corresponding material molecule.

[0256] Table 2

[0257]

[0258] As can be seen from the data in Table 2, the refractive index of the second capping layer material is lower. At a wavelength of 460 nm, the refractive index of the first capping layer material is at least 0.35 greater than that of the second capping layer material; at a wavelength of 530 nm, the refractive index of the first capping layer material is at least 0.42 greater than that of the second capping layer material; and at a wavelength of 620 nm, the refractive index of the first capping layer material is at least 0.4 greater than that of the second capping layer material.

[0259] absorption coefficient

[0260] The absorption coefficient was measured using an ellipsometer; the instrument scanning range was 245–1000 nm; a thin film was deposited on a silicon wafer with a film thickness of 50 nm. The absorption coefficients of the first capping layer material at different wavelengths are shown in Table 3, and the absorption coefficients of the second capping layer material at different wavelengths are shown in Table 4.

[0261] Table 3

[0262]

[0263] Table 4

[0264]

[0265] As can be seen from the data in Tables 3 and 4, the first and second capping layer materials of this disclosure have particularly good absorption at 430 nm or shorter wavelengths, and almost no absorption at 430 nm or longer wavelengths. Such materials have very small absorption in red, green and blue light, which will not affect the light output of the device, while having strong absorption at 430 nm or shorter wavelengths. This can fully absorb the external ultraviolet light, prevent ultraviolet light from damaging the light-emitting device, and thus improve the performance of the device.

[0266] stability

[0267] The glass transition temperature (Tg) determines the thermal stability of the material during vapor deposition; the higher the Tg, the better the thermal stability of the material.

[0268] The measuring instrument was a DSC differential scanning calorimeter; the test atmosphere was nitrogen, the heating rate was 10℃ / min, and the temperature range was 50~300℃. The glass transition temperatures (Tg) of the first and second capping materials disclosed in this invention are shown in Table 5.

[0269] Table 5

[0270]

[0271] As shown in Table 5, the first and second cover layer materials in this disclosure have high glass transition temperatures, which are beneficial to improving the thermodynamic stability of the materials. During the vapor deposition process, the materials do not undergo cracking changes, which is a basic condition for the materials to be vapor deposited and maintain a long lifespan.

[0272] Other film material physical property testing

[0273] Refractive index

[0274] The determination method is the same as that for the determination of the refractive index of the capping layer material. The refractive indices of the hole transport layer (HTL), organic light-emitting layer (EML), and electron transport layer (ETL) are shown in Table 6.

[0275] Table 6

[0276]

[0277] BEML, GEML, and REML refer to the organic light-emitting layer 330 for blue light devices, the organic light-emitting layer 330 for green light devices, and the organic light-emitting layer 330 for red light devices, respectively.

[0278] The structure of the materials used in each membrane layer can be found in Table 7.
