Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of luminescent materials technology, and particularly to organic compounds, compositions and organic electronic devices. Background Technology
[0002] Organic semiconductor materials offer diverse synthesis options, relatively low manufacturing costs, and excellent optical and electrical properties. Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) offer advantages such as wide viewing angles, fast response times, low operating voltages, and thin panel thicknesses in optoelectronic devices (e.g., flat panel displays and lighting), thus possessing broad development potential.
[0003] To improve the luminous efficiency of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), various luminescent material systems based on fluorescence and phosphorescence have been developed. Among these, OLEDs using fluorescent materials exhibit high reliability, but their internal electroluminescence quantum efficiency under electrical excitation is limited to 25% due to the 1:3 branching ratio of singlet to triplet excited states of the exciton. OLEDs using phosphorescent materials have achieved nearly 100% internal electroluminescence quantum efficiency; however, phosphorescent OLEDs also suffer from the roll-off effect, where luminous efficiency decreases rapidly with increasing current or brightness, which is particularly detrimental to high-brightness applications.
[0004] To date, conventional phosphorescent materials with practical application value are iridium- and platinum-containing metal complexes. However, these raw materials are rare and expensive, and the synthesis of metal complexes is complex, resulting in high costs. To overcome these problems, Adachi proposed the concept of reverse internal conversion, which utilizes organic compounds instead of metal complexes as luminescent materials, achieving high efficiency comparable to phosphorescent OLEDs. This concept has been realized through various material combinations, such as composite excited-state materials and thermally excited delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials.
[0005] However, traditional blue TADF materials still lag behind phosphorescent materials in terms of both efficiency and lifespan. Summary of the Invention
[0006] Based on this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an organic compound that can solve the problems of low efficiency and lifespan of traditional blue light TADF materials.
