Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of organic light-emitting materials, and in particular to an organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material and a preparation method thereof, and a near-infrared light-emitting diode. Background Art
[0002] Luminescent materials with various unique properties have attracted interest from scientific research to industry. Room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials have attracted widespread attention due to their large Stokes shift and longer lifetime compared to fluorescence. These advantages have promoted their application in molecular switches, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), anti-counterfeiting and bio-imaging.
[0003] Traditional phosphorescent materials focus on inorganic and organic metal systems, which usually rely on heavy metals such as platinum and iridium to promote the intersystem crossing (ISC) process. In order to avoid the use of these expensive and toxic heavy metals, pure organic room temperature phosphorescence has developed in recent years. Among them, the introduction of heavy atoms such as bromine and iodine and heteroatom-containing groups such as carbonyl groups are used to enhance ISC, while strategies such as crystallization, copolymerization, and host-guest interaction are used to suppress the non-radiative transition of the luminophore. However, whether for fluorescence or phosphorescence, long-wavelength emission is usually achieved by extending conjugation, and the solubility problem of luminophores with large planes limits their processability, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are carcinogenic and not easily degraded.

[0025] In order to facilitate the understanding of this specification, the specification will be described more fully below with reference to the relevant drawings. The preferred embodiments of this specification are given in the drawings. However, this specification can be implemented in many different forms without departing from the core spirit of this specification and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the understanding of the disclosure of this specification more thorough and comprehensive.
[0026] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those generally understood by those skilled in the art to which this specification belongs. The terms used herein in this specification are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this specification. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.
[0027] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides an organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material, comprising a near-infrared phosphorescent dye and a dispersed matrix, wherein the near-infrared phosphorescent dye comprises a thiocarbonyl group and an auxiliary electron-withdrawing group, and the chemical structure of the near-infrared phosphorescent dye is shown in formula (I):
[0028]
[0029] Among them, EWG is an auxiliary electron-withdrawing group.
[0030] An embodiment of the present application provides an organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material based on a small molecular weight phosphorescent dye, wherein the near-infrared phosphorescent dye (comprising a thiocarbonyl group and an auxiliary electron-withdrawing group) is doped with a dispersed matrix, and the organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material is obtained by lowering the triplet energy level and rigidifying the matrix. The organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material utilizes the property that the lone electron pair of the thiocarbonyl group is weakly attracted to the atomic nucleus, combined with the electron-withdrawing property of the electron-withdrawing group, to reduce the triplet energy level, thereby achieving near-infrared room temperature phosphorescence while maintaining an ultra-low molecular weight; moreover, the organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material has good processability and can be conveniently coated on the surface of irregular objects, such as ultraviolet light-emitting diodes.
[0031] In some embodiments of the present application, the electron withdrawing group includes at least one of a cyano group, an ethoxyl group, an alkynyl group, a trifluoromethyl group, a fluorine atom, and a nitro group.
[0032] Specifically, the chemical structural formulas of the near-infrared phosphorescent dyes provided in the embodiments of the present application are shown in formulas (II)-(VII).
[0033]
[0034]
[0035] The above-mentioned near-infrared phosphorescent dyes are all monocyclic phosphorescent dyes with extremely small molecular weights. After being doped with a dispersed matrix, an organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material can be obtained through the reduction of the triplet energy level and the rigidification of the matrix. The obtained organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material can achieve near-infrared room temperature phosphorescence while maintaining an ultra-low molecular weight. Compared with traditional phosphorescent materials prepared based on inorganic or metal organic compounds, the components of this organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material are all organic compounds, without the participation of heavy metals and condensed ring aromatic hydrocarbons, and are easy to prepare. Amorphous materials with good processability can be obtained, and the cost and toxicity are low.
[0036] Among them, "amorphous" means that the molecules of the substance have no regularity and periodicity, but are arranged in disorder. The amorphous product state is conducive to further processing.
[0037] In some embodiments of the present application, the electron-withdrawing group is a cyano group or an ethoxylated group. When the electron-withdrawing group is a cyano group, the chemical structural formula of the near-infrared phosphorescent dye is shown in formula (II). When the electron-withdrawing group is an ethoxylated group, the chemical structural formula of the near-infrared phosphorescent dye is shown in formula (III),
[0038] In some embodiments of the present application, the dispersion matrix includes at least one of polymethyl methacrylate, polyvinyl alcohol, polyacrylamide, and cyclodextrin.
[0039] Through a large number of experiments, it is found that the selection of the dispersing matrix can be determined according to the sensitivity of the thiocarbonyl group in the near-infrared phosphorescent dye to weak nucleophilic reagents. For example, when the near-infrared phosphorescent dye is of formula (II) or formula (III), polymethyl methacrylate can be used as the dispersing matrix.
[0040] In some embodiments of the present application, the molar ratio of the dispersed matrix and the near-infrared phosphorescent dye is 10-10000:1. For example, the molar ratio of the dispersed matrix and the near-infrared phosphorescent dye can be 10:1, 100:1, 500:1, 1000:1, 2000:1, 4000:1, 6000:1, 8000:1, 10000:1, or any molar ratio between any two of the above molar ratios.
[0041] Further, the molar ratio of the dispersed matrix to the near-infrared phosphorescent dye can be 100-1000:1, for example, the molar ratio of the dispersed matrix to the near-infrared phosphorescent dye can be 100:1, 200:1, 300:1, 400:1, 500:1, 600:1, 700:1, 800:1, 900:1, 1000:1, or any molar ratio between any two of the above molar ratios.
[0042] In the embodiments of the present application, the emission wavelength or other properties of the phosphorescent material can be regulated by adjusting the molar ratio between the dispersed matrix and the near-infrared phosphorescent dye.
[0043] In some embodiments of the present application, the phosphorescence emission wavelength of the organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material at room temperature is greater than 700 nm, and the Stokes shift of the organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material at room temperature is greater than 300 nm.
[0044] Stokes shift refers to the difference between the strongest wavenumber or wavelength of the same electronic transition in the absorption spectrum and the emission spectrum. The organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material provided in the embodiment of the present application has a very large Stokes shift due to its forbidden S0→S1 transition. For example, the Stokes shift can be 301nm, 350nm, 403nm, 405nm, 410nm, or other displacement values greater than 300nm. On this basis, the organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material provided in the embodiment of the present application can have a phosphorescence emission wavelength greater than 700nm at room temperature (18-27°C). For example, the phosphorescence emission wavelength can be 701nm, 702nm, 703nm, 704nm, 710nm, 750nm, 760nm, or other wavelength values greater than 700nm.
[0045] In a second aspect, the present application provides a method for preparing an organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material, comprising the following steps:
[0046] (1) dissolving a near-infrared phosphorescent dye and a dispersion matrix in a volatile solvent to obtain a mixed solution;
[0047] (2) After the mixed solution is dried, an organic near-infrared room temperature phosphorescent material is obtained.
[0048] In step (2), the mixed solution can be placed in a container or applied to the surface of an object, and dried at a temperature of -100°C to 150°C in a vacuum to normal pressure environment. The drying time depends on the specific situation. For example, the drying time can be 10 minutes to 10 days.
[0049] In some embodiments of the present application, the preparation method of the near-infrared phosphorescent dye in step (1) comprises: using chelidonic acid as a reaction raw material, and obtaining the near-infrared phosphorescent dye after esterification and sulfurization. In the embodiments of the present application, the near-infrared phosphorescent dye can be synthesized from natural products, for example, the near-infrared phosphorescent dye can be obtained from chelidonic acid (a natural product derived from chelidonium) after esterification and sulfurization.
[0050] In some embodiments of the present application, the volatile solvent in step (1) includes at least one of methanol, ethanol, dichloromethane, chloroform, water, ethyl acetate, dimethylformamide, and dimethyl sulfoxide.
[0051] In a third aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a near-infrared light-emitting diode, comprising an organic near-infrared room-temperature phosphorescent material and an ultraviolet light-emitting diode, wherein the organic near-infrared room-temperature phosphorescent material is coated on a shell of the ultraviolet light-emitting diode.
