Description

Technical Field

[0001] Cross-reference to related applications

[0002] This application claims the benefit of priority of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2023-0055421, filed with the Korean Intellectual Property Office on April 27, 2023, and Korean Patent Application No. 10-2024-0011002, filed with the Korean Intellectual Property Office on January 24, 2024, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

[0003] The present disclosure relates to novel compounds and organic light-emitting devices comprising the same. Background Art

[0004] Generally, the organic light-emitting phenomenon refers to the phenomenon in which electrical energy is converted into light energy by using an organic material. Organic light-emitting devices utilizing the organic light-emitting phenomenon have characteristics such as a wide viewing angle, excellent contrast, fast response time, and excellent brightness, driving voltage, and response speed, and thus many studies have been conducted.

[0005] An organic light-emitting device generally has a structure including an anode, a cathode, and an organic material layer interposed between the anode and the cathode. The organic material layer generally has a multilayer structure including different materials to enhance the efficiency and stability of the organic light-emitting device. For example, the organic material layer may be formed 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 an organic light-emitting device, when a voltage is applied between the two electrodes, holes are injected from the anode into the organic material layer, electrons are injected from the cathode into the organic material layer, excitons are formed when the injected holes and electrons meet each other, and light is emitted when the excitons fall back to the ground state.

[0006] There is a continuous need to develop new materials for organic materials used in the organic light-emitting devices as described above.

[0207] Experimental Example 1

[0208] A glass substrate coated with an ITO (indium tin oxide) thin film with a thickness of 100 nm was placed in distilled water containing a detergent dissolved therein, and ultrasonic washing was performed. At this time, the detergent used was a product commercially available from Fisher Co., and the distilled water was distilled water filtered twice using a filter commercially available from Millipore Co. After washing the ITO for 30 minutes, ultrasonic washing was repeated twice with distilled water for 10 minutes. After washing with distilled water was completed, the substrate was ultrasonically washed and dried with isopropyl alcohol, acetone, and methanol solvents, and then transferred to a plasma cleaner. Then, the substrate was cleaned with oxygen plasma for 5 minutes and then transferred to a vacuum evaporator.

[0209] On the ITO transparent electrode thus prepared, the following compound HI-A was thermally vacuum deposited to a thickness of 60 nm to form a hole injection layer.

[0210] On the hole injection layer, the following compound HAT was vacuum deposited to form a first hole transport layer with a thickness of 5 nm, and on the first hole transport layer, the following compound HT-A was vacuum deposited to form a second hole transport layer with a thickness of 50 nm.

[0211] On the hole transport layer, the following compound HT-B was thermally vacuum deposited to a thickness of 45 nm to form an electron blocking layer. The previously prepared compound GH1 was mixed with the following compound GH-P at a weight ratio of 1:1, and then vacuum deposited on the electron blocking layer with the following compound GD at a weight ratio of 90:10 to a thickness of 40 nm to form a light emitting layer. On the light emitting layer, the following compound ET-A was vacuum deposited to a thickness of 5 nm to form a hole blocking layer. On the hole blocking layer, the following compound ET-B and the following compound LiQ were vacuum deposited at a weight ratio of 1:1 to form an electron injection and transport layer with a thickness of 35 nm.

[0212] Lithium fluoride (LiF) and aluminum were sequentially deposited on the electron injection and transport layer to have thicknesses of 1 nm and 100 nm, respectively, to form a cathode, thereby manufacturing an organic light emitting device.

[0213]

[0214] During the above process, the vacuum deposition rate of the organic material was maintained at 0.04 nm / sec to 0.09 nm / sec, the deposition rate of lithium fluoride was maintained at 0.03 nm / sec, and the deposition rate of aluminum was maintained at 0.2 nm / sec. The degree of vacuum during deposition was maintained at 1×10 -7 Torr to 5×10 -5 Torr.

[0215] Examples 2 to 8 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5

[0216] An organic light-emitting device was fabricated in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the compound listed in Table 1 below was used instead of compound GH1 in Example 1. In Table 1 below, the structures of compounds GH9 to GH13 are as follows.

[0217]

[0218] [Experimental Example]

[0219] The voltage, efficiency, emission color, and lifetime (T 95 ) were measured by applying an electric current to the organic light-emitting devices fabricated in Examples 1 to 8 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5, and the results are shown in Table 1 below. At this time, the voltage and efficiency were measured by applying a current density of 10 mA / cm 2 , and T 95 means the time (hours) required for the luminance to decrease to 95% of the initial luminance at a current density of 10 mA / cm 2 .

[0220] [Table 1]

[0221]

[0222] As shown in Table 1, it was determined that the organic light-emitting device of one embodiment exhibited more excellent characteristics in terms of voltage, efficiency, and lifetime compared to the organic light-emitting devices containing un-deuterium-substituted compounds GH9, GH10, GH12, or GH13. In addition, even when deuterium was substituted in compound GH11 in which substituents other than carbazole were deuterium-substituted, it was found that when the substitution position was not carbazole, the voltage, efficiency, and lifetime were all inferior to those of the organic light-emitting device of the example.

[0223] Therefore, as shown in Table 1, it can be determined that when the compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 is used as the host for an organic light-emitting device, it exhibits characteristics of low voltage, high efficiency, and long lifetime.
