Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to compounds for use in organic electronic devices, such as organic electroluminescent devices. More particularly, it relates to a compound having the structure of Formula 1, and an organic electroluminescent device comprising the compound and a compound composition comprising the compound. Background Art
[0002] Organic electronic devices include, but are not limited to, the following types: organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic field effect transistors (O-FETs), organic light emitting transistors (OLETs), organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs), dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), organic optical detectors, organic photoreceptors, organic field effect quantum dots (OFQDs), light emitting electrochemical cells (LECs), organic laser diodes, and organic electroluminescent devices.
[0003] In 1987, Tang and Van Slyke of Eastman Kodak reported a bilayer organic electroluminescent device comprising an arylamine hole transport layer and a tris-8-hydroxyquinoline-aluminum layer as an electron transport layer and a light emitting layer (Applied Physics Letters, 1987, 51(12): 913-915). Once a bias voltage is applied to the device, green light is emitted from the device. This invention laid the foundation for the development of modern organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). The state-of-the-art OLEDs can include multiple layers, such as charge injection and transport layers, charge and exciton blocking layers, and one or more light emitting layers between the cathode and the anode. Since OLEDs are a self-emitting solid-state device, they offer great potential for display and lighting applications. In addition, the inherent properties of organic materials, such as their flexibility, can make them very suitable for special applications, such as fabrication on flexible substrates.
[0004] OLEDs can be classified into three different types according to their emission mechanisms. The OLED invented by Tang and van Slyke is a fluorescent OLED. It only uses singlet emission. The triplets generated in the device are wasted through non-radiative decay channels. Therefore, the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of fluorescent OLEDs is only 25%. This limitation has hindered the commercialization of OLEDs. In 1997, Forrest and Thompson reported phosphorescent OLEDs, which use triplet emission from heavy metals in complexes as emitters. Therefore, it is able to harvest both singlet and triplet states, achieving 100% IQE. Due to its high efficiency, the discovery and development of phosphorescent OLEDs have directly contributed to the commercialization of active matrix OLEDs (AMOLEDs). Recently, Adachi achieved high efficiency through thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) of organic compounds. These emitters have small singlet-triplet energy gaps, making it possible for excitons to return from triplets to singlets. In TADF devices, triplet excitons can generate singlet excitons through reverse intersystem crossing, resulting in high IQE.
[0005] OLEDs can also be classified into small molecule and polymer OLEDs according to the form of the materials used. Small molecules refer to any organic or organometallic materials that are not polymers. As long as they have precise structures, small molecules can have large molecular weights. Dendrimers with well-defined structures are considered small molecules. Polymer OLEDs include conjugated polymers and non-conjugated polymers with side-group emitting groups. If post-polymerization occurs during the manufacturing process, small molecule OLEDs can turn into polymer OLEDs.
[0006] There are various methods for manufacturing OLEDs. Small molecule OLEDs are usually manufactured by vacuum thermal evaporation. Polymer OLEDs are manufactured by solution methods such as spin coating, inkjet printing, and nozzle printing. If the materials can be dissolved or dispersed in solvents, small molecule OLEDs can also be manufactured by solution methods.
[0007] The emission color of OLEDs can be achieved through the design of the emitter structure. OLEDs can include one or more emission layers to achieve the desired spectrum. For green, yellow, and red OLEDs, phosphorescent materials have been successfully commercialized. Blue phosphorescent devices still have problems such as blue color unsaturation, short device lifetime, and high operating voltage. Commercial full-color OLED displays usually adopt a hybrid strategy, using blue fluorescence and phosphorescent yellow, or red and green. Currently, the rapid reduction of the efficiency of phosphorescent OLEDs at high brightness is still a problem. In addition, more saturated emission spectra, higher efficiency, and longer device lifetimes are desired.
[0008] The performance of organic electroluminescent devices, such as voltage and efficiency, is significantly related to the balance of carrier concentrations in the light-emitting layer. By designing the molecular structures of charge transport materials and carrier blocking materials, the balance of carrier concentrations in the light-emitting layer can be more reasonably regulated. Compounds with triarylamine and spirosilfluorene structures can be used as hole transport materials and electron blocking materials (light-emitting auxiliary materials) in electroluminescent devices. Currently, there have been some reports on triarylamine-spirosilfluorene compounds.

This application focuses on the application of the combination of these two compounds as hole injection materials and does not focus on the application of the second compound as an electron blocking material.

[0012] With the increasing demand for the performance of organic electroluminescent devices in the industry, OLED materials with excellent properties such as lower voltage, higher efficiency, and longer lifespan still need to be further studied and developed. Summary of the Invention

[0033] OLEDs can be fabricated on various substrates, such as glass, plastic, and metal. Figure 1 The organic light-emitting device 100 is schematically and non-limitingly shown. The figures are not necessarily drawn to scale, and some layer structures in the figures can also be omitted as needed. The device 100 can include a substrate 101, an anode 110, a hole injection layer 120, a hole transport layer 130, an electron blocking layer 140, a light-emitting layer 150, a hole blocking layer 160, an electron transport layer 170, an electron injection layer 180, and a cathode 190. The device 100 can be fabricated by sequentially depositing the described layers. The properties and functions of each layer and exemplary materials are described in more detail in columns 6-10 of U.S. Patent No. 7,279,704B2, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference.
[0034] There are more examples of each of these layers. For example, U.S. Patent No. 5,844,363, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, discloses a flexible and transparent substrate-anode combination. An example of a p-doped hole transport layer is m-MTDATA doped with F4-TCNQ at a molar ratio of 50:1, as disclosed in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2003 / 0230980, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

A description of the protective layer can be found in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2004 / 0174116, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
[0035] The above-described hierarchical structure is provided by way of non-limiting examples. The functions of the OLED can be achieved by combining the various layers described above, or some layers can be completely omitted. It can also include other layers not explicitly described. Within each layer, a single material or a mixture of multiple materials can be used to achieve optimal performance. Any functional layer can include several sub-layers. For example, the light-emitting layer can have two layers of different light-emitting materials to achieve the desired emission spectrum.
[0036] In one embodiment, the OLED can be described as having an "organic layer" disposed between the cathode and the anode. The organic layer can include one or more layers.
[0037] The OLED also requires a encapsulation layer, such as Figure 2 schematically and non-limitingly shows an organic light-emitting device 200, which Figure 1 differently, an encapsulation layer 102 can also be included above the cathode 190 to prevent harmful substances from the environment, such as moisture and oxygen. Any material capable of providing an encapsulation function can be used as the encapsulation layer, such as glass or an organic-inorganic hybrid layer. The encapsulation layer should be placed directly or indirectly outside the OLED device. Multilayer thin-film encapsulation is described in U.S. Patent US7,968,146B2, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference.
[0038] A typical top-emitting OLED device structure is as Figure 3 schematically shown. Among them, the OLED device 300 includes: an anode layer 301, a hole injection layer (HIL) 302, a hole transport layer (HTL) 303, an electron blocking layer (EBL) 304 (which can also be referred to as a light-emitting auxiliary layer or prime layer), a light-emitting layer (EML) 305, a hole blocking layer (HBL) 306, and the hole blocking layer 306 is an optional layer. An electron transport layer (ETL) 307, an electron injection layer (EIL) 308, a cathode layer 309, and a capping layer 310. Among them, the anode layer 301 is a material or a combination of materials with high reflectivity, including but not limited to Ag, Al, Ti, Cr, Pt, Ni, TiN, and combinations of the above materials with ITO and / or MoOx (molybdenum oxide). Generally, the reflectivity of the anode is greater than 50%; preferably, the reflectivity of the anode is greater than 70%; more preferably, the reflectivity of the anode is greater than 80%; while the cathode layer 309 should be a semi-transparent or transparent conductive material, including but not limited to MgAg alloy, MoOx, Yb, Ca, ITO, IZO, or combinations thereof, and its average transmittance for light with wavelengths in the visible light region is greater than 15%; preferably, the average transmittance for light with wavelengths in the visible light region is greater than 20%; more preferably, the average transmittance for light with wavelengths in the visible light region is greater than 25%.
[0039] Devices fabricated in accordance with embodiments of the present invention can be incorporated into a variety of consumer products having one or more electronic component modules (or units) with the device. Some examples of these consumer products include flat panel displays, monitors, medical monitors, televisions, billboards, lights for indoor or outdoor illumination and / or signaling, head-up displays, fully or partially transparent displays, flexible displays, smart phones, tablet computers, phablets, wearable devices, smart watches, laptop computers, digital cameras, portable video cameras, viewfinders, micro-displays, 3-D displays, vehicle displays, and taillights.
[0040] The materials and structures described herein can also be used in other organic electronic devices listed above.
[0041] As used herein, "top" means furthest from the substrate, and "bottom" means closest to the substrate. In the case where a first layer is described as "disposed" "on" a second layer, the first layer is disposed further from the substrate. Unless it is specified that the first layer "contacts" the second layer, there may be other layers between the first and second layers. For example, even though there are various organic layers between the cathode and the anode, the cathode can still be described as "disposed on" the anode.
[0042] As used herein, "solution processable" means capable of being dissolved, dispersed, or transported in a liquid medium in the form of a solution or suspension and / or deposited from a liquid medium.
[0043] When a ligand is believed to directly contribute to the photosensitive properties of an emissive material, the ligand can be referred to as "photosensitive". When a ligand is believed not to contribute to the photosensitive properties of an emissive material, the ligand can be referred to as "auxiliary", but an auxiliary ligand can modify the properties of a photosensitive ligand.
[0044] It is believed that the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of a fluorescent OLED can be exceeded by delayed fluorescence by more than 25% of the spin statistics limit. Delayed fluorescence can generally be divided into two types, namely P-type delayed fluorescence and E-type delayed fluorescence. P-type delayed fluorescence is generated by triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA).
[0045] On the other hand, E-type delayed fluorescence does not rely on the collision of two triplets, but rather on the conversion between the triplet state and the singlet excited state. Compounds capable of generating E-type delayed fluorescence need to have an extremely small singlet-triplet gap for the conversion between energy states. Thermal energy can activate the transition from the triplet state back to the singlet state. This type of delayed fluorescence is also known as thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF). A remarkable feature of TADF is that the delayed component increases with increasing temperature. If the rate of reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) is fast enough to minimize the non-radiative decay from the triplet state, the fraction of singlet excited state populated back can reach 75%. The total singlet fraction can be 100%, far exceeding the 25% of the spin statistics of electro-generated excitons.
[0046] The characteristics of E-type delayed fluorescence can be seen in exciplex systems or single compounds. Without being bound by theory, it is believed that E-type delayed fluorescence requires the luminescent material to have a small singlet-triplet energy gap (ΔE S-T ). Organic non-metal-containing donor-acceptor luminescent materials may be able to achieve this. The emission of these materials is usually characterized as donor-acceptor charge transfer (CT)-type emission. The spatial separation of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) in these donor-acceptor type compounds usually results in a small ΔE S-T . These states can include CT states. Generally, donor-acceptor luminescent materials are constructed by connecting an electron donor moiety (such as an amino or carbazole derivative) with an electron acceptor moiety (such as an N-containing six-membered aromatic ring).

[0236]
[0237] Discussion:
[0238] As can be seen from the data in Table 2, compared with Comparative Example 1, although the voltage of Example 1 is slightly higher than that of Comparative Example 1, it is still at a relatively low voltage level. More importantly, the current efficiency, power efficiency, and external quantum efficiency of Example 1 are significantly increased by 29.7%, 18.2%, and 25.1% respectively, and the lifetime is greatly increased by 82.0%. The above results show that the triarylamine-spirosilfluorene compound of the present invention with an arylamine fragment connected to the 4-position of spirosilfluorene, compared with the comparative example compound with an arylamine fragment connected to the 2-position of spirosilfluorene, only differs in the connection position of the arylamine fragment to spirosilfluorene. However, the current efficiency, power efficiency, and external quantum efficiency of Example 1 using the compound of the present invention are significantly improved, especially the device lifetime is unexpectedly greatly improved, demonstrating the unique performance of the compound with a specific structure represented by Formula 1 of the present invention.
[0239] Compared with Comparative Example 2, the voltage of Example 1 decreased by 0.6 V, and the current efficiency, power efficiency, and external quantum efficiency increased by 21.5%, 37.5%, and 16.0% respectively. More importantly, the lifetime increased unexpectedly by 275%. Compared with Comparative Example 2, the voltage of Example 2 decreased significantly by 1.1 V. At the same time, the current efficiency, power efficiency, and external quantum efficiency increased significantly by 18.4%, 50%, and 15% respectively. Even more unexpectedly, the lifetime increased significantly by 324%. The above results show that the compound with a specific group connected to the triarylamine fragment of the triarylamine-spirosilfluorene compound of the present invention, compared with the comparative example compound with other groups connected to the triarylamine fragment, can reduce the device voltage, and at the same time, the current efficiency, power efficiency, and external quantum efficiency are significantly improved. In particular, the device lifetime has an unexpectedly large increase, which once again proves the unique performance of the compound with the specific structure represented by Formula 1 of the present invention.
[0240] Compared with Comparative Example 3, while maintaining the same low voltage level as it, Example 1 significantly improved the current efficiency, power efficiency, and external quantum efficiency by 25.5%, 21.2%, and 19.6% respectively, and the lifetime increased significantly by 106%. The above results show that the spirosilfluorene-triarylamine compound of the present invention, compared with the silfluorene-triarylamine compound of the comparative example, has achieved a significant increase in the current efficiency, power efficiency, and external quantum efficiency, especially the lifetime, indicating the unique performance of the compound with the specific structure represented by Formula 1 of the present invention.
[0241] In summary, the compound with the specific structure represented by Formula 1 of the present invention is used in an organic light-emitting device, which can maintain a low voltage level or further reduce the voltage, significantly improve the device efficiency, especially can greatly improve the device lifetime, provide better comprehensive device performance, and has a very broad application prospect.
