Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of organic light-emitting diodes, and particularly to a green organic electroluminescent device based on a Pt(II) complex and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) is a device that uses organic materials to emit light under the excitation of an electric field or current. Due to its high-definition pixel quality and color contrast, rapid response time, and wide viewing angle, it has witnessed tremendous development in the past 25 years. Compared with the mature liquid crystal display technology (LCD), OLED does not require a backlight, and the display screen is thinner, lighter, and can achieve a true "black". In addition, the flexible advantages of OLED, such as "foldable and rollable", have also opened a new chapter in flexible display technology. In recent years, the commercial application of OLED has appeared in all aspects of daily life, such as smartphones, televisions, commercial lighting, and flat panel displays.

[0003] The internal quantum efficiency of OLED devices has also increased from less than 25% of the initial fluorescent materials to 100% of the current metal complex phosphorescent materials, further promoting the development of the entire industry and driving the upgrade of products. However, with the rapid development of China's OLED industry in recent years, many problems of a serious lack of self-luminous materials have gradually emerged. Although the current iridium(III)-based phosphorescent complexes have been widely used in OLEDs, their scarcity has limited the sustainable development of the organic display industry to a certain extent.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to develop efficient phosphorescent materials to achieve high-efficiency, high-stability, and highly adjustable organic electroluminescent devices and their preparation methods to solve the current problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to design a green organic electroluminescent device based on a Pt(II) complex and a preparation method thereof to solve the above problems.

[0006] The present invention achieves the above purpose through the following technical solutions: For the green organic electroluminescent device based on a Pt(II) complex, the device is formed into a bottom-emitting structure, and is sequentially provided with a transparent substrate, an anode layer, a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an exciton blocking layer, a light-emitting layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, and a cathode layer from bottom to top; wherein the light-emitting layer uses a thermally activated delayed fluorescence material TCz-pMTrz as a sensitizing host and a green phosphorescent material Pt-SOPy as a guest; The structural formula of the thermally activated delayed fluorescence material TCz-pMTrz is: , The structural formula of the green phosphorescent material Pt-SOPy is as follows: .

[0007] A method for preparing a green organic light-emitting device based on a Pt(II) complex includes the following steps: S1. Clean the substrate composed of a transparent substrate and an anode layer, and dry it with nitrogen after cleaning; S2. Treat the substrate by ultraviolet light irradiation; S3. Place the treated substrate in an evaporation chamber with a vacuum degree of 3×10 -3 Pa, and start to prepare the organic thin film. Evaporate the hole injection layer, hole transport layer, exciton blocking layer, light-emitting layer, and electron transport layer in sequence according to the device structure; the doping mass ratio of the green phosphorescent material Pt-SOPy in the light-emitting layer is regulated by the evaporation rates of two independent evaporation sources; S4. In an evaporation chamber with a vacuum degree of 2×10 -4 Pa, evaporate the electron injection layer and the metal cathode.

[0008] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. The metal-carbon bond with covalent properties in the green phosphorescent material Pt-SOPy increases the mixing of metal orbitals and ligand orbitals, thereby improving the stability of the compound; the mixing of metal d orbitals and ligand orbitals can enhance the influence of the metal center on the excited state of the ligand itself, enhance the spin-orbit coupling effect, thereby increasing the quantum yield of the triplet state and promoting efficient phosphorescent radiative relaxation.

[0009] 2. In the thermally activated delayed fluorescence material TADF, the ligand with a triplet excited state of higher energy in the host material TCz-pMTrz results in a large energy difference between the excited state of the ligand and the excited state of lower energy, effectively reducing the influence of the excited state on the luminescence efficiency.

[0010] 3. Using the green Pt(II) complex phosphorescent material as the guest and introducing the thermally activated delayed fluorescence material TCz-pMTrz as the sensitizing host, through efficient FRET and DET energy transfer between the host and the guest, greatly promotes the reverse intersystem crossing process of the triplet excitons of the TADF host, and then inhibits the TTA and TPQ processes, and further inhibits the efficiency roll-off at high current densities, greatly improving the efficiency of the device.

[0011] 4. By strategically designing the exciton blocking layer, adjusting the exciton recombination region, restricting the excitons in the light-emitting layer, higher exciton utilization rate can be obtained, thereby improving the luminescence performance. Description of the Drawings

After cleaning, it is dried with dry nitrogen. The ITO film on the transparent substrate serves as the anode layer of the device, and the film thickness is 100 nm.

The electron transport layer is TPBi, and the cathode layer is Al. The device structure is: transparent substrate / ITO (100 nm) / MoO3 (5 nm) / TAPC (30 nm) / TCTA (10 nm) / TCz-pMTrz: 9 wt% Pt-SOPy (25 nm) / TPBi (30 nm) / LiF (1 nm) / Al (100 nm).

[0051] Preparation method: The transparent conductive substrate ITO glass is ultrasonically cleaned with detergent, acetone solution, deionized water and isopropyl alcohol solution, and the cleaning time for each time is 15 minutes. After cleaning, it is dried with dry nitrogen. The ITO film on the transparent substrate serves as the anode layer of the device, and the film thickness is 100 nm. The ITO glass substrate is treated by ultraviolet irradiation. The petri dish containing the glass substrate is placed inside and subjected to ultraviolet treatment for 30 minutes. The treated substrate is placed in an evaporation chamber with a vacuum of 3×10 -3 Pa. First, MoO3 is evaporated with a thickness of 5 nm, and then the organic functional layer thin film is evaporated. According to the device structure described above, the materials TAPC layer of 30 nm, TCTA layer of 10 nm, light-emitting layer of 25 nm, and TPBi layer of 30 nm are evaporated in sequence. The light-emitting layer is TCz-pMTrz: 9 wt% Pt-SOPy. The evaporation rate of each of the remaining organic layers is 0.5 Å / s. After the evaporation of the organic layer is completed, the metal electrode is prepared. In an evaporation chamber with a vacuum of 2×10 -4 Pa, the evaporation rates of LiF and Al are controlled at 2.0 Å / s, and the film layer thicknesses are 1 nm and 100 nm respectively.

[0052] The above evaporation rates and thicknesses are monitored by a film thickness meter. Under standard test conditions, the maximum current efficiency of the device is 52.63 cd / A, the highest external quantum efficiency reaches 16.89%, and the highest brightness is 7220 cd / m 2 .

[0053] Maximum current efficiency (cd / A) Maximum external quantum efficiency (%) <![CDATA[Maximum brightness (cd / m 2 )]]> Example 1 26.43 4.98 4198 Example 2 56.36 18.01 4110 Example 3 77.25 20.67 5600 Example 4 81.40 24.70 6530 Example 5 74.47 21.71 6830 Example 6 52.63 16.89 7220 Table 1 Performance parameters of organic light-emitting diodes It can be seen that: with the green Pt(II) complex phosphorescent material as the guest and the thermally activated delayed fluorescence material TCz-pMTrz as the sensitizing host (i.e., the organic light-emitting diode prepared in Examples 2-6), compared with the organic light-emitting diode with the pure green Pt(II) phosphorescent material as the light-emitting layer (i.e., the organic light-emitting diode prepared in Example 1), the device luminous efficiency and luminous brightness are significantly improved. Repeated experiments show that when the doping concentration of the green Pt(II) phosphorescent material as the light-emitting layer guest is 5%, the maximum EQE of 24.70% is obtained. This is because of the efficient FRET and DET energy transfer between the host and the guest, which greatly promotes the reverse intersystem crossing of the triplet excitons of the TADF host, thereby inhibiting the TTA and TPQ processes, and further inhibiting the efficiency roll-off at high current densities, greatly improving the efficiency of the device. In addition, the exciton blocking layer is strategically designed to adjust the exciton recombination region, confine the excitons in the light-emitting layer, and obtain higher exciton utilization rate, thereby improving the luminous performance. The above strategies not only solve the common problem of low PLQY of traditional phosphorescent materials, but also further reduce the exciton loss, providing a new and desirable strategy for the preparation of high-performance doped OLEDs.

[0054] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the technical principle of the present invention, several improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
