[0002] Organic light-emitting devices (OLED) devices include a cathode, a cathode and an organic thin film structure located between two electrodes. The organic thin film structure contains a variety of organic functional materials and is the core of OLED devices. Common organic functional materials include: hole injection materials, hole transport materials, hole blocking materials, electron injection materials, electron transport materials, electron blocking materials, luminescent host materials and luminescent guest materials (dyes), etc. When power is turned on, the electrons and holes from the two electrodes are injected and transported to the luminescent area respectively and recombine there, thereby generating excitons and emitting light.
[0003] With the development of display technology and people's demand for the improvement of display technology, people have put forward higher requirements for the brightness, life and other performance of display panels and OLED devices. In order to improve the performance of OLED devices, organic stacked electroluminescent devices containing more than two light-emitting units have come into being. Compared with single-layer devices containing one light-emitting unit, stacked devices have obvious performance advantages in terms of luminous brightness and life. However, in organic stacked electroluminescent devices, the voltage drop caused by the charge generation layer between each light-emitting unit leads to problems such as voltage increase, increased power consumption, reduced efficiency and life of the device.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop organic stacked electroluminescent devices with higher performance in this field. Summary of the invention
