Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an organic electroluminescent device, and more particularly, to an organic electroluminescent device in which operating characteristics of the device such as luminous efficiency, driving voltage, and lifespan are improved by including an organic electroluminescent material having high solubility in a solvent.

[0002] For reference, the present invention is part of a research project of the Korea Institute of Industrial Technology Evaluation and Management under the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Energy of Korea, which aims to establish future growth drivers for the materials and components industries - display innovation process platform. It is the research result of SFC Co., Ltd. under the project name of "Development of High-performance and Long-life Light-emitting Layer Ink Materials and Device Technologies for Printing Processes" (project number: 20011059). The research period is from April 1, 2020 to December 31, 2024. Background Art

[0003] An organic electroluminescent device is a display device that utilizes the self-luminescence phenomenon. It has a large viewing angle, can be thinner, lighter, shorter, and smaller than a liquid crystal display, and has advantages such as a fast response speed. Therefore, it is used as a full-color display or lighting.

[0004] Generally, the organic light-emitting phenomenon refers to the phenomenon of converting electrical energy into light energy using an organic substance. An organic electroluminescent device using the organic light-emitting phenomenon usually has a structure including an anode, a cathode, and an organic layer therebetween. Among them, in order to improve the luminous efficiency and stability of the organic electroluminescent device, the organic layer is usually composed of a multi-layer structure of different substances. For example, it can be composed of a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a light-emitting layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, etc. In the structure of such an organic electroluminescent device, when a voltage is applied between the two electrodes, holes are injected from the anode, and electrons are injected from the cathode into the organic layer. When the injected holes and electrons meet, excitons are formed. When the excitons fall back to the ground state, light is emitted. It is known that such an organic light-emitting device has characteristics such as self-luminescence, high brightness, high luminous efficiency, low driving voltage, wide viewing angle, high contrast, and high-speed response.

[0005] Currently, displays are becoming larger and larger. When manufacturing large displays using a deposition process, there are disadvantages such as a decrease in production yield and an increase in investment cost as the substrate becomes larger. In addition, since the deposition process evaporates single-molecule substances under vacuum conditions and deposits them on the substrate, in order to prevent decomposition at the high evaporation temperature, substances with a high glass transition temperature need to be used, so there are limitations.

[0006] On the other hand, when manufacturing a large display by preparing a solution by dissolving an organic electroluminescent material in a solvent and then coating the solution on a substrate, it has advantages such as lower process costs than the deposition process and relatively simple process steps. However, organic electroluminescent materials generally have low solubility in solvents, so it is difficult to ensure the luminous efficiency, brightness, power efficiency, lifespan, and thermal stability of the device.

[0007] Therefore, there is a continuous need to develop organic electroluminescent materials that have high solubility in solvents and can improve the luminous efficiency, brightness, power efficiency, lifespan, and thermal stability of the device. Summary of the Invention

[0174] Next, with reference to Figure 1 A method for manufacturing an organic electroluminescent device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

[0175] A substrate 10 can be prepared. The substrate 10 can be an organic substrate or a transparent plastic substrate having excellent transparency, surface smoothness, handleability, and waterproofness, but is not limited thereto, and can include substrates commonly used for organic electroluminescent devices.

[0176] A first electrode 20 can be formed by coating a material for an anode electrode on the upper surface of the substrate 10. The material for the anode electrode can include a material that is transparent and has excellent conductivity, such as indium tin oxide (ITO), indium zinc oxide (IZO), tin oxide (SnO2), and / or zinc oxide (ZnO).

[0177] A hole injection layer 30 can be formed by vacuum thermal deposition or spin-coating a hole injection layer material on the upper surface of the first electrode 20. A hole transport layer 40 can be formed by vacuum thermal deposition or spin-coating a hole transport layer material on the upper surface of the hole injection layer 30.

[0178] An electron blocking layer (not shown) can be formed by selectively vacuum thermal depositing or spin-coating an electron blocking layer material on the upper surface of the hole transport layer 40. The electron blocking layer prevents electrons injected from the electron injection layer 70 from passing through the light-emitting layer 50 and entering the hole transport layer 40, thereby improving the lifetime and efficiency of the device. The electron blocking layer can be formed at an appropriate portion between the light-emitting layer 50 and the hole injection layer 30, preferably between the light-emitting layer 50 and the hole transport layer 40.

[0179] The light-emitting layer 50 may be formed on the upper surface of the hole transport layer 40 or the electron blocking layer. The light-emitting layer 50 may be formed using a solution containing the organic electroluminescent material and the solvent. More specifically, the light-emitting layer 50 may be formed by coating the solution on the upper surface of the hole transport layer 40 by any one of spin coating, dip coating, blade coating, spray coating, roll coating, inkjet printing, and screen printing.

[0180] According to an example of the present invention, the thickness of the light-emitting layer 50 may be to

[0181] A hole blocking layer (not shown) may be selectively formed on the upper surface of the light-emitting layer 50 by vacuum deposition or spin coating. Since the lifetime and efficiency of the organic electroluminescent device decrease when holes pass through the light-emitting layer 50 and flow into the second electrode 80, if the hole blocking layer contains a hole blocking material having a very low highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy level, holes can be prevented from passing through the light-emitting layer 50 and flowing into the second electrode 80. The hole blocking material is not particularly limited, but may have electron transport ability and a higher ionization potential than the organic electroluminescent material. The hole blocking material may include, for example, Balq, BCP, TPBI, etc.

[0182] The electron transport layer 60 may be deposited on the upper surface of the light-emitting layer 50 or the hole blocking layer by vacuum deposition or spin coating, and then the electron injection layer 70 may be formed. The second electrode 80 may be formed by vacuum thermal deposition of a cathode electrode metal on the upper surface of the electron injection layer 70. The cathode electrode metal may include, for example, lithium (Li), magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), aluminum-lithium (Al-Li), calcium (Ca), magnesium-indium (Mg-In), magnesium-silver (Mg-Ag), etc. When manufacturing a top-emitting organic electroluminescent device, the cathode electrode metal may include indium tin oxide (ITO) or indium zinc oxide (IZO).

[0183] An organic electroluminescent device according to an example of the present invention may be manufactured by the manufacturing method described above.

[0184] Hereinafter, the organic electroluminescent device of the present invention will be described with reference to preferred embodiments. However, these embodiments are for more detailed illustration of the present invention, and it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto.
