Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of semiconductor materials, and particularly relates to a triazine-containing compound and an organic electroluminescent device thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Organic electroluminescent device (OLED: Organic Light Emission Diodes) technology can be used to manufacture new display products and new lighting products, and is expected to replace existing liquid crystal display and fluorescent lamp lighting, and has a very wide application prospect. The organic electroluminescent device has a sandwich-like structure, including electrode material film layers and organic functional materials sandwiched between different electrode material film layers, various different organic functional materials are stacked together according to the purpose to jointly constitute the organic electroluminescent device. As a current device, when a voltage is applied to the electrodes of the organic electroluminescent device, and the positive and negative charges in the organic layer functional material film layer are acted on by the electric field, the positive and negative charges are further recombined in the light-emitting layer, that is, the organic electroluminescence is generated.
[0003] At present, OLED display technology has been applied in the fields of smart phones, tablet computers, televisions and the like, but compared with the actual product application requirements, the performance of the organic electroluminescent device such as luminous efficiency and service life still needs to be further improved. In order to continuously improve the performance of the organic electroluminescent device, the organic optoelectronic functional material needs to be continuously researched and innovated, and a higher performance organic optoelectronic functional material needs to be created.
[0004] The organic optoelectronic functional material applied to the organic electroluminescent device can be divided into two categories in terms of use, which are charge injection and transport material and light-emitting material. Further, the charge injection and transport material can be divided into electron injection and transport material, electron blocking material, hole injection and transport material, and hole blocking material. As a charge transport material, it is required to have good carrier mobility, high glass transition temperature and the like. For the organic electroluminescent device, electrons are injected from the cathode, then transmitted through the electron transport layer to the host material, and then recombined with holes in the host material to generate excitons. Therefore, improving the injection capacity and transmission capacity of the electron transport layer is beneficial to reducing the device driving voltage and obtaining high efficiency of electron-hole recombination. Therefore, the electron transport layer is very important, and needs to have high efficiency of electron injection, transmission capacity and high durability of electrons.
[0005] For the device lifetime, the heat resistance and film stability of the material are also important, the material with low heat resistance is not only easy to produce decomposition when the material is evaporated, but also the heat produced by the device during the device working will produce thermal decomposition, thus causing the material deterioration. In the case of poor material film phase stability, the material also occurs thin film crystallization in a short time, causing the organic film layer to directly produce layer separation, resulting in device deterioration. Therefore, the material used is required to have high heat resistance and good film stability.
[0006] With the demand for improving the performance of organic electroluminescent devices, the requirement for material performance is also increasing, not only requires good material stability, and needs to achieve good efficiency and lifetime at low driving voltage. However, the current electron transport material has insufficient heat resistance and stability, and the material has defects in electron resistance, which causes the material to separate or decompose during the device working, thus resulting in short device lifetime.
