Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2020-0134252, filed with the Korean Patent Office on October 16, 2020, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0002] This invention relates to compounds and organic light-emitting devices containing the same. Background Technology

[0003] Organic light emission (OLED) typically refers to the phenomenon of converting electrical energy into light energy using organic materials. OLED devices generally have a structure including an anode and a cathode, and an organic layer between them. To improve the efficiency and stability of OLEDs, the organic layer is often formed by a multilayer structure composed of different materials, such as a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, a light-emitting layer, an electron transport layer, and an electron injection layer. In such an OLED structure, if a voltage is applied between the two electrodes, holes are injected into the organic layer from the anode, and electrons are injected into the organic layer from the cathode. When the injected holes and electrons meet, an exciton is formed. When this exciton re-enters the ground state, it emits light.

[0004] There is a continuous demand for the development of new materials for organic light-emitting devices as described above.

Furthermore, when an organic layer containing a compound represented by chemical formula 1 is used as an electron blocking layer, the generated excitons are confined within the light-emitting layer to prevent light leakage, thereby achieving an organic light-emitting device with excellent luminous efficiency. As a result, when a compound of chemical formula 1 is used as an electron blocking layer, the long lifetime, low voltage, or high efficiency characteristics of the organic light-emitting device are enhanced.
