Description
[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0002] This application claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2023-0174650 filed in Korea on December 5, 2023, the entire contents of which are hereby expressly incorporated by reference into this application. Technical Field

Background Art
[0004] As a display device that can replace a liquid crystal display device (LCD), a flat panel display device including an organic light emitting diode (OLED) has been studied. The electrode configuration in the OLED can realize a unidirectional or bidirectional image. In addition, the OLED can even be formed on a flexible transparent substrate such as a plastic substrate, so that a flexible or foldable display device can be easily realized using the OLED. In addition, compared with LCD, the OLED can be driven at a lower voltage and the OLED has an advantageous high color purity.
[0005] However, there is still a need to develop OLEDs and devices including the OLEDs with improved luminous efficiency and luminous lifetime. Since fluorescent materials only utilize singlet excitons during the luminescence process, the fluorescent materials of the prior art exhibit low luminous efficiency. Meanwhile, since phosphorescent materials utilize triplet excitons as well as singlet excitons during the luminescence process, they can exhibit high luminous efficiency. However, such phosphorescent materials contain metal complexes that may have a luminous lifetime that is too short for commercial use. Therefore, there is still a need to develop materials with sufficient luminous efficiency and luminous lifetime. Summary of the invention

The driving thin film transistor Td and the storage capacitor Cst are connected between the switching thin film transistor Ts and the power line PL. The organic light emitting diode D is connected to the driving thin film transistor Td. When the switching thin film transistor Ts is turned on by the gate signal applied to the gate line GL, the data signal applied to the data line DL is applied to the gate electrode of the driving thin film transistor Td and one electrode of the storage capacitor Cst through the switching thin film transistor Ts.

Then, the organic light emitting diode D emits light with a brightness proportional to the current flowing through the driving thin film transistor Td. In this case, the storage capacitor Cst is charged with a voltage proportional to the data signal, so that the voltage of the gate electrode in the driving thin film transistor Td remains constant during one frame. Therefore, the organic light emitting display device can display a desired image.

The passivation layer 160 has a flat top surface and a drain contact hole (or contact hole) 162 that exposes the drain electrode 154 of the thin film transistor Tr or does not cover the drain electrode 154 of the thin film transistor Tr.

In one embodiment, the first electrode 210 may be an anode and include a conductive material having a relatively high work function value. For example, the first electrode 210 may include a transparent conductive oxide (TCO).
[0164] In one embodiment, when the organic light-emitting display device 100 is a bottom emission type, the first electrode 210 may have a single-layer structure of TCO. Alternatively, when the organic light-emitting display device 100 is a top emission type, a reflective electrode or a reflective layer may be provided below the first electrode 210. For example, the reflective electrode or the reflective layer may include, but is not limited to, silver (Ag) or aluminum-palladium-copper (APC) alloy.

In addition, a cover window may be attached to the packaging film 170 or the polarizing plate. In this case, the substrate 102 and the cover window may have flexible characteristics, so that the organic light-emitting display device 100 may be a flexible display device.

[0262] The content of the body 342 in the EML 340A may be about 50 wt % to about 99 wt %, for example, about 50 wt % to about 95 wt % or about 60 wt % to about 90 wt %, the content of the first dopant 344 in the EML 340A may be about 3 wt % to about 50 wt %, for example, about 5 wt % to about 30 wt % or about 5 wt % to about 20 wt %, and the content of the second dopant 346 in the EML 340A may be about 0.5 wt % to about 20 wt %, for example, about 1 wt % to about 10 wt % or about 1 wt % to about 5 wt %, but is not limited thereto. When the EML 340A includes both the P-type body and the N-type body, the P-type body and the N-type body may be mixed in a weight ratio of about 4:1 to about 1:4, for example, about 3:1 to about 1:3, but is not limited thereto.
[0263] The EML 340A includes a second dopant 346 of a fluorescent material to maximize the luminescent properties of a first dopant 344 of a delayed fluorescent material or a phosphorescent material. The first dopant 344 of the phosphorescent material and / or the delayed fluorescent material can utilize both singlet exciton energy and triplet exciton energy through an intersystem crossing (ISC) or reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) mechanism.
[0264] When EML340A includes a second dopant 346 of a fluorescent material having an appropriate energy level compared to the energy level of a first dopant 344 of a phosphorescent material and / or a delayed fluorescent material, the second dopant 346 absorbs the exciton energy released from the first dopant 344, and the second dopant 346 can utilize the absorbed energy to generate 100% singlet excitons to maximize its luminous efficiency.
[0265] In one embodiment, the excited singlet exciton energy (including the singlet exciton energy up-converted from the triplet exciton energy and the initial singlet exciton energy) of the first dopant 344 of the delayed fluorescent material in the EML 340A is mainly transferred to the second dopant 346 of the fluorescent material in the same EML 340A through the Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) mechanism, and the final light emission occurs at the second dopant 346. In another embodiment, the EML 340A includes the first dopant 344 of the phosphorescent material having a beneficial light emission efficiency and the second dopant 346 of the fluorescent material having a beneficial color purity, so that the EML 340A can achieve phosphor-sensitized fluorescence (PSF).
[0266] A compound having an absorption wavelength with a large overlap area relative to the emission wavelength of the first dopant 344 may be selected as the second dopant 346, so that the exciton energy generated at the first dopant 344 can be effectively transferred to the second dopant 346. The final luminescent second dopant 346 has a narrow full-width at half maximum (FWHM), so that the second dopant 346 can exhibit a beneficial color purity.
[0267] The first dopant 344 having delayed fluorescence characteristics and / or phosphorescence characteristics may receive exciton energy from the host 342. The first dopant 344 may generate both singlet exciton energy and triplet exciton energy through ISC or RISC, and may effectively transfer the generated exciton energy to the second dopant 346. The exciton energy generated at the host 342 is transferred to the second dopant 346 having a beneficial color purity via the first dopant 344 having a beneficial luminous efficiency. Therefore, the driving voltage of the OLED D2 may be reduced, and the luminous efficiency, luminous lifetime, and / or color purity of the OLED D2 may be further improved.

[0383] Example 1: Fabrication of OLED
[0384] An organic light-emitting diode in which the light-emitting material layer contains the compound C-25 synthesized in Synthesis Example 1 as a main body is manufactured. The transparent electrode ITO film (10 ohms / square) on the OLED glass substrate is ultrasonically cleaned with acetone and isopropanol and stored in isopropanol.

[0393]
[0394] Experimental Example 1: Measurement of the Light Emitting Characteristics of OLED
[0395] Each OLED manufactured in Examples 1 to 2 and Comparative Example 1 was connected to an external power source, and then the luminescent characteristics of all OLEDs were evaluated. In particular, the driving voltage and the time period (T from initial brightness to 95% luminescence by CIE color coordinate standard as luminescent lifetime were measured at a brightness of 1000 nits. 95 ). The measurement results are shown in Table 1 below.

[0397] sample main body Driving voltage(V) <![CDATA[T 95 (Hours)]]> Ex.1 C-25 3.9 54 Ex.2 C-100 3.9 60 Ref.1 H-Ref 3.9 35
[0398] As shown in Table 1, compared with the OLED manufactured in Comparative Example 1, in the OLED manufactured in Examples 1 to 2 in which an anthracene-containing compound with a specific molecular conformation is used as the host in the EML, the luminescence lifetime is significantly improved. Since the anthracene portion in the anthracene-containing host is relatively highly reactive, the luminescence lifetime of the OLED comprising the anthracene-containing host tends to decrease. When the reactivity of the anthracene portion contained in the host decreases, the luminescence lifetime of the OLED can be improved. The phenyl group substituted to one side of the anthracene core includes another phenyl group substituted to the ortho position of the initial phenyl group, so that the steric effect of the anthracene skeleton can be adjusted, and therefore the reactivity of the anthracene core can be reduced. Compared with conventional OLEDs, OLEDs using anthracene-containing compounds with a specific molecular conformation in the light-emitting layer can have a more beneficial luminescence lifetime.
