Detailed implementation manners

[0055] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present application.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 FIG. 130 is a schematic structural diagram of a light-emitting device provided for the related art. The light-emitting device includes a first electrode layer 110, a hole injection layer 301, a first hole transport layer 302, a first light-emitting layer 120, a first hole blocking layer 303, a first electron transport layer 304, an N-type charge generation layer 131, a P-type charge generation layer 132, a second hole transport layer 305, a second light-emitting layer 140, a second hole blocking layer 306, a second electron transport layer 307, an electron injection layer 308, and a second electrode layer 150, which are sequentially stacked. For example, when using an evaporation method with one cavity and three sources (i.e., 3 evaporation sources are provided in one evaporation chamber), at least two evaporation chambers are required for the first hole blocking layer 303, the first electron transport layer 304, and the N-type charge generation layer 131. Please refer to Figure 2 ,Figure 2 It is a vapor deposition schematic diagram of the first hole blocking layer, the first electron transport layer, and the N-type charge generation layer of a light-emitting device provided by the related art. Among them, in the vapor deposition chamber 1, there are a vapor deposition source S11, a vapor deposition source S12, and a vapor deposition source S13. The material of the vapor deposition source S11 is a hole blocking material (HB), which is used to vapor deposit and form the first hole blocking layer 303 (HBL1). The material of the vapor deposition source S12 is a doped metal, such as LiQ. The material of the vapor deposition source S13 is an electron transport material (ET). The vapor deposition sources S12 and S13 together vapor deposit and form the first electron transport layer 304 (ETL1); in the vapor deposition chamber 2, there are a vapor deposition source S21, a vapor deposition source S22, and a vapor deposition source S23. The material of the vapor deposition source S21 is an N-type electron transport material (NET). The material of the vapor deposition source S12 is a doped metal, such as Yb. The material of the vapor deposition source S13 is an N-type electron transport material (NET). The vapor deposition sources S21, S22, and S23 together vapor deposit and form the N-type charge generation layer 131 (NCGL). Therefore, in this light-emitting device structure, the first hole blocking layer 303, the first electron transport layer 304, and the N-type charge generation layer 131 need to occupy multiple vapor deposition chambers, and the process cost is relatively high.

[0057] To solve the above problems, the present application provides a light-emitting device 100. Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 FIG. is a schematic structural diagram of a light-emitting device 100 provided by an embodiment of the present application. The light-emitting device 100 includes a first electrode layer 110, a first light-emitting layer 120, a buffer layer 200, a connection layer 130, a second light-emitting layer 140, and a second electrode layer 150. The first light-emitting layer 120 is disposed above the first electrode layer 110; the buffer layer 200 is disposed on a side of the first light-emitting layer 120 away from the first electrode layer 110; the connection layer 130 is disposed on a side of the buffer layer 200 away from the first light-emitting layer 120. The connection layer 130 includes a P-type charge generation layer 132 and an N-type charge generation layer 131. The N-type charge generation layer 131 is located between the P-type charge generation layer 132 and the buffer layer 200. The N-type charge generation layer 131 includes a first N-type electron transport material; the second light-emitting layer 140 is disposed on a side of the connection layer 130 away from the buffer layer 200; the second electrode layer 150 is disposed on a side of the second light-emitting layer 140 away from the connection layer 130; wherein, the buffer layer 200 includes at least one sub-buffer layer, and the sub-buffer layer includes at least one of a hole blocking material, an electron transport material, and a second N-type electron transport material. The buffer layer 200 and the N-type charge generation layer 131 are formed in the same vapor deposition chamber.

[0058] Among them, the light-emitting device 100 further includes a driving substrate 101 and a packaging layer 160. The driving substrate 101 is located on the side of the first electrode layer 110 away from the first light-emitting layer 120. The driving substrate 101 includes a substrate and a thin-film transistor array disposed on the substrate, and is used to drive the light-emitting device 100 to emit light. The packaging layer 160 is located on the side of the second electrode layer 150 away from the second light-emitting layer 140. The packaging layer 160 may be a thin-film encapsulation (TFT) structure, including one or more inorganic or organic thin films, and is used to protect the light-emitting device and block the erosion of water and oxygen.

[0059] The first electrode layer 110 may be an anode, and the second electrode layer 150 may be a cathode. Under the action of the driving voltage provided by the driving substrate 101, the anode is used to provide holes, and the cathode is used to provide electrons. The holes and electrons move towards the light-emitting layer, meet and recombine in the light-emitting layer to emit photons, so as to realize the light emission of the light-emitting device 100.

[0060] In this application, the light-emitting device 100 is a series-connected OLED light-emitting device 100, which at least includes a first light-emitting layer 120 and a second light-emitting layer 140. The first light-emitting layer 120 and the second light-emitting layer 140 are connected by a connection layer 130. Of course, the light-emitting device 100 may also include more than two light-emitting layers. Adjacent light-emitting layers are connected in series through the connection layer 130. When the light-emitting device 100 includes more than two light-emitting layers, the adjacent light-emitting layers may have the same or similar structure as that between the first light-emitting layer 120 and the second light-emitting layer 140 above.

[0061] Among them, the first light-emitting layer 120 includes a first host light-emitting layer 121, and the first host light-emitting layer 121 includes a first organic light-emitting material. The second light-emitting layer 140 includes a second host light-emitting layer 141, and the second host light-emitting layer 141 includes a second organic light-emitting material.

[0062] The connection layer 130, that is, the charge generation layer (Charge Generation Layer, CGL), includes a P-type charge generation layer 132 (PCGL) and an N-type charge generation layer 131 (NCGL) which are stacked. In the case of applying an electric field, due to the difference in work function between different materials in the CGL, a charge transfer phenomenon will occur, thereby generating electron-hole pairs. For example, hole carriers will be generated in the PCGL, and electron carriers will be generated in the NCGL. The CGL transports the generated electrons and holes to adjacent light-emitting layers or other functional layers respectively to realize the series operation of multiple light-emitting layers. In this application, the P-type charge generation layer 132 includes a P-type hole transport material. Further, it may also include a P-type doped metal. The N-type charge generation layer 131 includes a first N-type electron transport material. Further, it may also include a first doped metal, such as active metals like Yb, Mg, Ag, Li, etc.

[0063] In the present application, a buffer layer 200 is further included between the first light-emitting layer 120 and the N-type charge generation layer 131. The buffer layer 200 includes one or more sub-buffer layers. For example, the buffer layer 200 may include one sub-buffer layer, or two stacked sub-buffer layers, or three stacked sub-buffer layers. The sub-buffer layer may include at least one of a hole blocking material, an electron transport material, and a second N-type electron transport material to achieve different functions of different sub-buffer layers. For example, when the sub-buffer layer includes a hole blocking material, the sub-buffer layer has the function of blocking holes; when the sub-buffer layer includes an electron transport material, the sub-buffer layer has the function of transporting electrons; when the sub-buffer layer includes a second N-type electron transport material, the sub-buffer layer has functions such as transporting electrons and reducing the energy level barrier. Specifically, the number of sub-buffer layers included in the buffer layer 200 and the materials of each sub-buffer layer can be designed according to the structure and functional requirements of the light-emitting device 100, and are not limited herein.

[0064] In the present application, the hole blocking material is a material having the function of blocking holes, such as at least one of TPBI (1,3,5-tris(1-phenyl-1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl)benzene), BCP (2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline), BDTSO (2,5-bis(2',5'-dimethyl-4-triphenylsilyl-phenyl)-(1,3,4)oxadiazole), Alq 3 (aluminum tris(2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole)), n-pt1 (n-type polythiophene derivative), etc., but not limited thereto. The electron transport material is a material having the function of transporting electrons, such as at least one of Liq (lithium 8-hydroxyquinolineolate), PBD (2-(4-biphenylyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole), TAZ (3-(4-biphenylyl)-4-phenyl-5-tert-butylphenyl-1,2,4-triazole), BCP (2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline), BAlq (bis(2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinolinato)-4-(phenylphenolato)aluminum), etc., but not limited thereto. The first N-type electron transport material and the second N-type electron transport material are materials having the function of transporting electrons that can be used as the N-type charge generation layer, such as N-type semiconductor materials, organic materials having electron transport properties, etc., such as ZnO, TiO 2 , pyridine derivatives, pyrimidine derivatives, triazine derivatives, imidazole derivatives, oxazole derivatives, and phenanthroline derivatives, etc., but not limited thereto. The second N-type electron transport material and the first N-type electron transport material may be the same or different.

[0065] In the present application, the second N-type electron transport material may have a relatively fast mobility to improve the electron transport efficiency of the buffer layer 200. The mobility range of the second N-type electron transport material is 10-6 ~10 -3 cm 2 / (V·S)。

[0066] In the present application, the second N-type electron transport material may have a relatively high HOMO energy level to enhance the ability of the buffer layer 200 to block holes and improve the electron transport efficiency. The HOMO energy level range of the second N-type electron transport material is -5.0 eV to -7.0 eV.

[0067] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 , the buffer layer 200 includes a first sub-buffer layer 201, and the first sub-buffer layer 201 includes a hole blocking material, so that the first sub-buffer layer 201 has the function of blocking the diffusion of holes from the first light-emitting layer 120 to the N-type charge generation layer 131, so that the holes are as much as possible restricted within the first light-emitting layer 120 to increase the probability of recombination of holes and electrons in the first light-emitting layer 120, thereby improving the light-emitting efficiency. At the same time, it is possible to avoid holes entering the N-type charge generation layer 131 and accumulating, which may affect the first N-type electron transport material of the N-type charge generation layer 131, and further affect the performance of the N-type charge generation layer 131 and the lifetime of the light-emitting device 100.

[0068] Furthermore, the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy level of the first N-type electron transport material may be greater than the LUMO energy level of the hole blocking material. Using a material with a relatively high LUMO energy level for the first N-type electron transport material can promote electron transport and improve the electron migration efficiency, which is beneficial to improving the efficiency of the light-emitting device 100. At the same time, the LUMO energy level of the first N-type electron transport material being greater than the LUMO energy level of the hole blocking material can further block the diffusion of holes and improve the lifetime of the light-emitting device 100, etc.

[0069] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 5, the buffer layer 200 includes a second sub-buffer layer 202. The second sub-buffer layer 202 includes a second N-type electron transport material and has the function of transporting electrons and reducing the energy level barrier. Further, the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy level of the first N-type electron transport material and / or the second N-type electron transport material is greater than the HOMO energy level of the first organic light-emitting material, so as to enhance the ability of the second sub-buffer layer 202 and / or the N-type charge generation layer 131 to block holes. For example, when the HOMO energy level of the first N-type electron transport material is greater than the HOMO energy level of the first organic light-emitting material, the ability of the N-type charge generation layer 131 to block holes can be further enhanced; when the HOMO energy level of the second N-type electron transport material is greater than the HOMO energy level of the first organic light-emitting material, the second sub-buffer layer 202 also has the function of blocking holes.

[0070] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 , the buffer layer 200 includes a first sub-buffer layer 201 and a second sub-buffer layer 202. The second sub-buffer layer 202 is disposed between the first sub-buffer layer 201 and the N-type charge generation layer 131. The first sub-buffer layer 201 includes a hole blocking material and has the function of blocking holes. The second sub-buffer layer 202 includes a second N-type electron transport material and has the function of transporting electrons. Further, the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy level of the second N-type electron transport material is greater than the LUMO energy level of the hole blocking material, and the second sub-buffer layer 202 also has the function of reducing the energy level barrier. When using a vapor deposition method with one cavity and three sources, the second N-type electron transport material is the same as the first N-type electron transport material.

[0071] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 , the buffer layer 200 includes a third sub-buffer layer 203. The third sub-buffer layer 203 includes an electron transport material and has the function of transporting electrons. Further, the HOMO energy level of the first N-type electron transport material and / or the electron transport material is greater than the HOMO energy level of the first organic light-emitting material, so as to enhance the ability of the third sub-buffer layer 203 and / or the N-type charge generation layer 131 to block holes. For example, when the HOMO energy level of the first N-type electron transport material is greater than the HOMO energy level of the first organic light-emitting material, the ability of the N-type charge generation layer 131 to block holes can be further enhanced; when the HOMO energy level of the electron transport material is greater than the HOMO energy level of the first organic light-emitting material, the third sub-buffer layer 203 also has the function of blocking holes.

[0072] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7, the buffer layer 200 includes a third sub-buffer layer 203. The third sub-buffer layer 203 includes an electron transport material and a second doped metal. The second doped metal is used to improve the electron mobility of the third sub-buffer layer 203. When using a one-chamber three-source evaporation method, the second doped metal has the same material as the first doped metal. Among them, both the second doped metal and the first doped metal have a certain coupling ability with the electron transport material and the first N-type electron transport material. In this embodiment, the second doped metal and the first doped metal can be metal Li, but are not limited thereto.

[0074] Furthermore, the doping concentration of the third doped metal in the fourth sub-buffer layer 204 is greater than the doping concentration of the first doped metal in the N-type charge generation layer 131, which can prevent the first doped metal in the N-type charge generation layer 131 from penetrating into the P-type charge generation layer 132 and affecting the performance of the N-type charge generation layer 131 and the P-type charge generation layer 132.

[0075] In this embodiment, the first N-type electron transport material and the second N-type electron transport material can be the same or different.
