Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of optoelectronic technology, and in particular to an organic compound and a mixture, a composition and an organic electronic device comprising the organic compound. Background Art

[0002] Organic semiconductor materials offer diverse synthesis options, low manufacturing costs, and excellent optical and electrical properties. Organic electronic devices using these materials, such as flat-panel displays, lighting devices, and organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), are widely used.

[0003] Organic electronic devices are a type of self-luminous display device that generates excitons through the transfer and recombination of carriers between various functional layers. They rely on high-quantum-efficiency organic compounds or metal complexes to emit light. They have excellent characteristics such as self-luminescence, high brightness, high efficiency, low driving voltage, wide viewing angle, and high contrast. The structure of an organic electronic device generally includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a functional layer disposed therebetween. To improve the efficiency and lifespan of organic electronic devices, the functional layers can be arranged into a multilayer structure, with each structural layer containing different organic materials. Specifically, the structural layers can be selected from hole injection layers, hole transport layers, light-emitting layers, electron transport layers, electron injection layers, etc. In organic electronic devices, when a voltage is applied to the two electrodes, the positive electrode injects holes into the functional layer, and the negative electrode injects electrons into the functional layer. When the injected holes and electrons meet, excitons are formed, and when the excitons transition back to the ground state, light is emitted.

[0004] In recent years, the luminous efficiency of organic electronic devices, such as organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), has significantly improved. However, their internal quantum efficiency has already approached its theoretical limit. The difference in hole and electron mobility prevents the recombination zone from being evenly dispersed throughout the light-emitting layer, thus reducing the device's luminous efficiency. Further improvements in material and device structure can reduce the difference in hole and electron mobility, preventing the shift in the recombination zone and thus improving the device's luminous efficiency and lifespan. Therefore, designing materials with improved performance and enhancing device performance has become a pressing technical challenge for those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0275] As can be seen from Table 1, compared with the device comparison example, the organic compound provided by the embodiment of the present invention can effectively improve the luminous efficiency and life of the OLED as an electron blocking layer material. In the organic compound provided by the present invention, the molecular structure will be distorted due to the steric effect between the connecting position groups of fluorene and aromatic amine, which is more favorable for the transmission of carriers after evaporation. The twisting of the group reduces the degree of conjugation between the groups within the molecule and improves the triplet energy level of the molecule. In addition, the addition of naphthyl can adjust the carrier transport ability of the molecule and balance holes and electrons. In the material structure of the device comparison example, the amino groups of C1 and C2 are connected to the naphthyl in a para or meta position, resulting in increased conjugation of the molecule, which has a greater impact on the triplet energy level of the molecule and is not conducive to the restriction of excitons; the alkyl group of C3 is larger in volume, and there is no naphthyl to regulate the carrier transport ability, making it difficult to achieve matching with the electron transport layer.

[0276] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present invention are introduced in detail above. Specific examples are used herein to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method of the present invention and its core ideas. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the ideas of the present invention, there may be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scopes. In summary, the contents of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
