During the preparation process, first, the ITO conductive glass substrate needs to be strictly cleaned. The cleaning process includes chemical cleaning and ultrasonic cleaning to improve the surface cleanliness and flatness of the ITO conductive glass substrate, so as to optimize hole injection and the film-forming property of organic materials. Through vacuum thermal evaporation technology, organic functional thin films such as a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a light-emitting layer, and an electron transport layer, as well as a metal cathode, are sequentially deposited on the ITO substrate. During the evaporation process, the vacuum degree, evaporation rate, and film thickness need to be strictly controlled. In addition, in order to improve the device performance, a buffer layer can also be evaporated between the anode and the light-emitting layer. Finally, the prepared device is encapsulated to prevent the influence of moisture and oxygen on the device performance.

[0115] Specifically, for the organic electroluminescent device production process optimization method of the present invention, step S105 includes: When using the stochastic gradient descent method to optimize the parameters in the organic electroluminescent device production process, the specific steps are as follows: Receive and set initial parameters, set initial values for the vacuum degree, evaporation rate, and thin film thickness parameters; Receive and set the learning rate, construct a loss function, and according to the optimization goal of the production process, construct a loss function for the relationship between device performance and parameters. Calculate the value of the loss function using the parameter values, that is, the performance deviation under the production conditions; Generate randomly selected samples, and based on the randomly selected samples, calculate the gradient of the loss function with respect to the parameters, that is, the partial derivative of the loss value with respect to the parameters; Update the parameters using the learning rate and gradient value, that is, adjust the parameter values in the opposite direction of the gradient, and repeat the iteration until the preset number of iterations is reached, the loss value converges to an acceptable range, or the stop condition is met.
[0116] Through the stochastic gradient descent method, optimize the parameters such as the vacuum degree, evaporation rate, and thin film thickness in the organic electroluminescent device production process to minimize the deviation between the device performance and the production conditions (i.e., the loss function value), thereby improving the device performance and production efficiency.
[0117] Receive and set initial parameters: Set initial values for parameters such as the vacuum degree, evaporation rate, and thin film thickness. These initial values can be based on experience, historical data, or pre-experiments.
[0118] Receive and set the learning rate: Set the learning rate, which is an important parameter controlling the step size of parameter updates. A too large learning rate may lead to instability in the optimization process, while a too small learning rate may result in an overly slow convergence speed.

This can be obtained through methods such as numerical differentiation, analytical differentiation, or automatic differentiation. The gradient reflects the sensitivity of the loss function to parameter changes and is an important basis for parameter updates.
[0123] Update the parameters using the learning rate and gradient values: Adjust the parameter values in the opposite direction of the gradient, i.e., update the parameters in the opposite direction of the gradient to reduce the value of the loss function. The update formula is usually: new parameter value = old parameter value - learning rate * gradient value.
[0124] Repeat the iteration: Repeat the above steps, i.e., calculate the loss function value, generate randomly selected samples, calculate the gradient, and update the parameters, until a preset number of iterations is reached, the loss value converges to an acceptable range, or a stopping condition is met. During the iteration process, the change of the loss function value can be monitored to evaluate the progress and effectiveness of the optimization process.
[0125] Judge the stopping condition: Set the stopping condition, such as the loss value converges below a certain threshold, the number of iterations reaches the upper limit, or the parameter update amount is less than a certain threshold, etc. When the stopping condition is met, end the optimization process and output the optimized parameter values. Output the optimized parameter values such as vacuum degree, evaporation rate, film thickness, etc. Records of the change of the loss function value during the optimization process.

[0126] The optimized parameter values will be used as production process parameters in subsequent steps (such as step S106, production implementation, etc.) to guide the actual production process. If the optimization result does not meet the expectations or further improvement of device performance is required, it is possible to return to step S105 or previous steps to review and adjust the initial parameters, learning rate, loss function, or iteration process.

Use preset statistical algorithms (such as analysis of variance, regression analysis, correlation analysis) to analyze these data and extract the characteristic data affecting the substrate surface cleanliness and flatness. Real-time collect the vacuum degree in the evaporation chamber, the evaporation rate of the organic functional layer material, and the film thickness parameter data.
