Description

[0002] Organic optoelectronic materials offer diverse synthesis, relatively low manufacturing costs, and excellent optical and electrical properties. Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have broad potential for development in optoelectronic devices (such as flat-panel displays and lighting) due to their advantages, including wide viewing angles, fast response times, low operating voltages, and thin panels.

[0003] Organic electroluminescence refers to the phenomenon of converting electrical energy into light energy using organic substances. Organic electroluminescent elements generally have a structure with a positive electrode and a negative electrode and an organic functional layer in between. In order to improve the efficiency and lifespan of organic electroluminescent elements, the organic functional layer has a multilayer structure, with each layer containing different organic substances. Specifically, it can include a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a light-emitting layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, etc. In such an organic electroluminescent element, when a voltage is applied between the two electrodes, holes are injected from the positive electrode into the organic functional layer, and electrons are injected from the negative electrode into the organic 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. Such organic electroluminescent elements have the characteristics of self-luminescence, high brightness, high efficiency, low driving voltage, wide viewing angle, and high contrast.
