Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of organic electroluminescence, and more specifically to an organic electroluminescent host material composition, a light-emitting device, and its applications. Background Technology

[0002] Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) convert electrical energy into light by applying electricity to organic light-emitting materials, and typically consist of an anode, a cathode, and an organic layer formed between these two electrodes. The organic layer of an OLED can include hole injection layers, hole transport layers, hole auxiliary layers, light-emitting auxiliary layers, electron blocking layers, light-emitting layers (containing host materials and dopant materials), electron buffer layers, hole blocking layers, electron transport layers, and electron injection layers, etc. Based on the functions achieved by each layer, the various materials used in the organic layer are categorized as hole injection materials, hole transport materials, hole auxiliary materials, light-emitting auxiliary materials, electron blocking materials, light-emitting materials, electron buffer materials, hole blocking materials, electron transport materials, and electron injection materials, etc. In an OLED, holes from the anode and electrons from the cathode are injected into the light-emitting layer by applying a voltage, and high-energy excitons are generated through the recombination of holes and electrons. The organic light-emitting compound moves to an excited state by energy and emits light by the energy when the organic light-emitting compound returns from the excited state to the ground state.

[0003] Existing publicly disclosed organic light-emitting compounds include amine derivatives of indenetriphenylene and triazine-based electron transport materials. Examples include an amine derivative based on indenetriphenylene disclosed in US patent application US20200115369A1, and a triazine-based electron transport material, its preparation method, and applications disclosed in Chinese patent application CN113004295A. Existing publicly disclosed amine derivatives based on indenetriphenylene can serve as organic electroluminescent devices, acting as both charge transport layers and electron blocking layers.

[0004] However, existing organic light-emitting compounds used in functional materials suffer from low stability and unbalanced carrier mobility, resulting in problems such as high driving voltage, low luminous efficiency, and short lifespan for organic light-emitting diodes, which severely limit their applications. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the problems of low stability of organic electroluminescent materials and high driving voltage of light-emitting devices caused by unbalanced carrier mobility in the prior art, thereby providing an organic electroluminescent host material composition, light-emitting device and application that solves the above problems.

[0264]

[0265] By comparing the data corresponding to the examples and comparative examples in Table 12, it can be seen that the new compound M developed in this invention has significantly better performance than CBP, REF-1 and other compounds disclosed in the prior art. After being fabricated into a device, it can have a lower turn-on voltage, i.e., a lower driving voltage as shown in Tables 11 and 12.

[0266] As shown by the data for device NM in Table 12 above, when the organic electroluminescent material is used as the organic functional layer material, the synergistic effect of compound N and compound M significantly improves the device performance compared to other existing similar structures, such as device RC (REF-1 and CBP synergistic), device N1C (N-4 and CBP synergistic), and device M1C (M1 and CBP synergistic). Furthermore, the above effect can also be seen by comparing the data in Table 11 above. Choosing compound N and compound M as the main materials in the luminescent material results in a more significant synergistic effect. Compared to using compound N or compound M alone, or synergizing them with other compounds as the main organic electroluminescent material, the combination of compound N and compound M has a significantly lower turn-on voltage, significantly improved luminous efficiency, and significantly increased device lifespan. The finally prepared device has a low driving voltage (below 3.44V), high current efficiency (above 24Cd / A), and high lifespan (above 260h).

[0267] As can be seen from the above, the synergistic effect of compound M and compound N developed in this invention can significantly improve carrier injection efficiency, reduce interlayer energy level differences, and balance electron and hole transport rates, effectively improving the efficiency and extending the lifetime of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Such materials are suitable as both light-emitting host materials, particularly for red light, hole transport materials, and electron blocking materials, as well as electron transport materials and hole blocking materials, resulting in significantly improved device luminous efficiency and longer device lifetime. This type of compound combination can also be used in the field of organic light-emitting displays. Specifically, in organic light-emitting displays, this type of compound combination can be used as a hole injection material or a hole transport material, and it can also be used as a light-emitting host material or a light-emitting material in fluorescent devices.

Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of this invention.
