Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of organic compound technology, and more particularly to an organic compound and an organic electroluminescent device and electronic device containing the organic compound. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of electronic technology and the advancement of materials science, the application range of electronic components for realizing electroluminescence is becoming increasingly wide. These electronic components typically include a cathode and an anode positioned opposite each other, and a functional layer disposed between the cathode and anode. This functional layer consists of multiple organic or inorganic film layers and generally includes an organic light-emitting layer, a hole transport layer located between the organic light-emitting layer and the anode, and an electron transport layer located between the organic light-emitting layer and the cathode. Taking an organic electroluminescent device as an example, it generally includes an anode, a hole transport layer, an organic light-emitting layer, an electron transport layer, and a cathode stacked sequentially. When a voltage is applied to the anode and cathode, an electric field is generated between the two electrodes. Under the influence of the electric field, electrons on the cathode side move towards the organic light-emitting layer, and holes on the anode side also move towards the organic light-emitting layer. Electrons and holes combine in the organic light-emitting layer to form excitons. The excitons are in an excited state and release energy outward, thereby causing the organic light-emitting layer to emit light.

[0003] Existing technologies disclose host materials for fabricating organic light-emitting layers in organic electroluminescent devices. However, it remains necessary to continue developing novel materials to further improve the performance of electronic components. Summary of the Invention

[0303] Fabrication of organic electroluminescent devices

[0304] Example 1: Fabrication of a red organic electroluminescent device

[0305] The anode pretreatment is first carried out through the following process: On ITO / Ag / ITO substrates with thicknesses of 100Å / 1000Å / 100Å respectively, the surface is treated with ultraviolet ozone and O2:N2 plasma to increase the work function of the anode. Alternatively, organic solvents can be used to clean the surface of the ITO substrate to remove impurities and oil stains.

[0306] On the experimental substrate (anode), PD:HT-22 was co-deposited at a deposition rate of 2%:98% to form a hole injection layer (HIL) with a thickness of 100 Å. Then, HT-22 was vacuum-deposited onto the hole injection layer to form a first hole transport layer with a thickness of 1065 Å. Finally, compound HT-23 was vacuum-deposited onto the first hole transport layer to form a second hole transport layer with a thickness of 890 Å.

[0307] On the second hole transport layer, compound 4: RH-P:RD was co-deposited at a deposition rate of 49% : 49% : 2% to form an organic light-emitting layer (EML) with a thickness of 400 Å.

[0308] On the organic light-emitting layer, compound ET-01 and LiQ are co-deposited at a 1:1 evaporation rate to form a 350 Å thick electron transport layer (ETL). Yb is deposited on the electron transport layer to form a 10 Å thick electron injection layer (EIL). Then, magnesium (Mg) and silver (Ag) are mixed at a 1:9 evaporation rate and vacuum-deposited on the electron injection layer to form a 130 Å thick cathode.

[0309] Furthermore, compound CP-1 is vacuum-deposited onto the aforementioned cathode to form an organic coating layer with a thickness of 800 Å, thereby completing the fabrication of the red organic electroluminescent device.
