[0059] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0060] In this application, "and / or" describes the relationship between associated objects and indicates that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, or B exists alone. Here, A and B can be singular or plural.
[0061] In this application, "at least one" means one or more, and "a plurality" means two or more. "At least one kind", "at least one of the following items (pieces)" or similar expressions refer to any combination of these items, including any combination of single items (pieces) or plural items (pieces). For example, "at least one of a, b, or c", or "at least one of a, b, and c" can both represent: a, b, c, a + b, a + c, b + c, or a + b + c, where a, b, and c can be single or multiple respectively.
[0062] In this application, forming another layer "on" a certain layer, the so-called "on" is a broad concept, which can mean that the formed another layer is adjacent to a certain layer, or there are other spacer structure layers between the another layer and a certain layer. For example, forming a second electrode "on" the first carrier functional layer, the so-called "on" can mean that the formed second electrode is adjacent to the first carrier functional layer, or there are other spacer structure layers between the second electrode and the first carrier functional layer, such as a light-emitting layer.
[0063] "Parts by weight" refers to the basic measurement unit representing the mass ratio relationship of multiple components. 1 part can represent any unit mass, such as 1 g, 1 Kg, or it can also represent 2 g, 2 Kg, etc. Suppose we say that the parts by weight of component A is a parts and the parts by weight of component B is b parts, then it represents the mass ratio a:b of component A and component B. Or, it represents that the mass of component A is aK and the mass of component B is bK (K is any number representing a multiple factor). It should not be misunderstood that, different from the number of parts by weight, the sum of the parts by weight of all components is not limited to 100 parts.
[0064] The various embodiments of this application can exist in the form of a range; it should be understood that the description in the form of a range is only for convenience and brevity, and should not be construed as a rigid limitation on the scope of this application; therefore, it should be considered that the description of the range has specifically disclosed all possible sub-ranges and the individual values within that range. For example, it should be considered that the description of the range from 1 to 6 has specifically disclosed sub-ranges such as from 1 to 3, from 1 to 4, from 1 to 5, from 2 to 4, from 2 to 6, from 3 to 6, etc., and the individual numbers within that range, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Additionally, whenever a numerical range is indicated herein, it means including any cited number (fraction or integer) within the indicated range.
[0065] Please refer to Figure 1, an embodiment of the present application provides a thin film 61, which includes a first modifying material and an N-type semiconductor material, and the first modifying material includes maleimide and / or maleimide derivatives.
[0066] Exemplarily, the maleimide derivatives include at least one of N-benzyl maleimide, N-phenyl maleimide, N-(1-pyrene) maleimide, 9-maleimide acridine, N-hydroxysuccinimide ester of 3-maleimide propionic acid, N-(4-nitrophenyl) maleimide, N-(4-fluorophenyl) maleimide, 3,4-dibromo maleimide, 6-maleimide hexanoic acid, 4-maleimide butyric acid.
[0067] Exemplarily, the thickness of the thin film 61 is 10 nm to 60 nm, such as 10 nm, 15 nm, 20 nm, 25 nm, 30 nm, 35 nm, 40 nm, 45 nm, 50 nm, 60 nm, etc.
[0068] Please refer to Figure 1 , the thin film 61 may be a single-layer structure, and the thin film includes a mixture of a first modifying material and an N-type semiconductor material, wherein the mass ratio of the first modifying material to the N-type semiconductor material is (1-5):30, such as 1:30, 2:30, 3:30, 4:30, 5:30, etc.
[0069] It can be understood that when the material of the thin film 61 is a composite material, it means that the first modifying material and the N-type semiconductor material are mixed with each other. At this time, since the electron density in the first modifying material (maleimide and / or maleimide derivatives) is small (electron-deficient), it can act as an electron acceptor, while the N-type semiconductor material has good conductivity and can act as an electron carrier. Since electrons are easily transferred from the electron carrier to the electron acceptor, that is to say, electrons are easy to flow between the N-type semiconductor material and the first modifying material, so that the thin film 61 can have good electron transport performance.
[0070] Please refer to Figure 1 , the thin film may be a single-layer structure, and the thin film includes a mixture of a first modifying material, an N-type semiconductor material and a second modifying material, and the second modifying material includes fulvalene and / or fulvalene derivatives, wherein the mass ratio of the first modifying material, the N-type semiconductor material, and the second modifying material is (1-5):30:(1-5), such as 1:30:1, 2:30:2, 3:30:3, 4:30:4, 5:30:5, 1:30:3, 2:30:5, 2:30:4, etc.
[0071] Exemplarily, the fulvalene derivative includes at least one of tetrathiafulvalene, dimethyltetrathiafulvalene, formyltetrathiafulvalene, 4,4'-diphenyltetrathiafulvalene, tetramethyltetraselenafulvalene, bis(trimethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene, and tetrakis(methylthio)tetrathiafulvalene.
[0072] It can be understood that when the composite material further includes a second modifying material (fulvalene and / or fulvalene derivative), it means that the composite material contains the first modifying material (maleimide and / or maleimide derivative), the N-type semiconductor material, and the second modifying material (fulvalene and / or fulvalene derivative) at the same time. Since the electron density in the second modifying material (fulvalene and / or fulvalene derivative) is relatively large (electron-rich), and the electron density in the first modifying material (maleimide and / or maleimide derivative) is relatively small (electron-deficient), electrons are likely to transfer from the second modifying material (fulvalene and / or fulvalene derivative) to the first modifying material (maleimide and / or maleimide derivative). That is to say, electrons can easily flow between the second modifying material and the first modifying material, thereby improving the electron transport performance of the thin film 61.
[0073] It should be noted that when the composite material further includes a second modifying material (fulvalene and / or fulvalene derivative), since both fulvalene and fulvalene derivatives can combine with the metal elements on the surface of the N-type semiconductor material to form stable chemical bonds, the N-type semiconductor materials in the thin film 61 can be connected to form a stable structure, thereby improving the density of the thin film 61 and enhancing the solvent resistance of the thin film 61, and further improving or eliminating the crack phenomenon of the thin film 61.
[0074] Please refer to Figure 2 , the thin film 61 may include a first sub-layer 611 and a second sub-layer 612 arranged in a stacked manner. The first sub-layer 611 includes the N-type semiconductor material, and the material of the second sub-layer 612 includes the first modifying material. The thickness ratio of the second sub-layer 612 to the first sub-layer 611 is (1 - 5):30, such as 1:30, 2:30, 3:30, 4:30, 5:30, etc.
[0075] It can be understood that when the thin film 61 includes a first sub-layer 611 and a second sub-layer 612 arranged in a stacked manner, it means that the first modifying material and the N-type semiconductor material respectively form film layers independently. At this time, at the interface between the second sub-layer 612 and the first sub-layer 611, since the electron density in the second sub-layer 612 (maleimide and / or maleimide derivative) is relatively small (electron-deficient), it can act as an electron acceptor, while the first sub-layer 611 has good electrical conductivity and can act as an electron carrier. Since electrons are easily transferred from the electron carrier to the electron acceptor, that is to say, electrons are easy to flow between the first sub-layer 611 and the second sub-layer 612, so that the thin film 61 can have good electron transport performance.
[0076] Please refer to Figure 3 , the thin film 61 may include a third sub-layer 613, a first sub-layer 611 and a second sub-layer 612 arranged in a stacked manner in sequence. The first sub-layer 611 includes the N-type semiconductor material, the second sub-layer 612 includes the first modifying material, the material of the third sub-layer 613 includes a second modifying material, the second modifying material includes fulvalene and / or fulvalene derivative, and the thickness ratio of the third sub-layer 613, the first sub-layer 611 and the second sub-layer 612 is (1-5):30:(1-5), such as 1:30:1, 2:30:2, 3:30:3, 4:30:4, 5:30:5, 1:30:3, 2:30:5, 2:30:4, etc.
[0077] It can be understood that when the thin film 61 includes a second sub-layer 612, a first sub-layer 611 and a third sub-layer 613 arranged in a stacked manner in sequence, since the electron density in the material (maleimide and / or maleimide derivative) of the second sub-layer 612 is relatively small (electron-deficient), and the electron density in the material (fulvalene and / or fulvalene derivative) of the third sub-layer 613 is relatively large (electron-rich), electrons are easy to flow in the direction from the third sub-layer 613 to the second sub-layer 612, so that the electron transport performance of the thin film 61 can be improved; and, since the material of the third sub-layer 613 includes fulvalene and / or fulvalene derivative, and both fulvalene and fulvalene derivative can form stable chemical bonds with the metal elements on the surface of the N-type semiconductor material, the N-type semiconductor materials in the first sub-layer 611 can be connected to form a stable structure, so that the density of the thin film 61 can be improved, the solvent resistance of the thin film 61 can be improved, and the crack phenomenon of the thin film 61 can be improved or eliminated.
[0078] Exemplarily, the N-type semiconductor material includes at least one of metal oxides, doped metal oxides, group II-VI semiconductor materials, group III-V semiconductor materials, and group I-III-VI semiconductor materials; the metal oxide is selected from at least one of ZnO, BaO, TiO2, and SnO2; the metal oxide in the doped metal oxide is selected from at least one of ZnO, TiO2, and SnO2, and the doping element is selected from at least one of Al, Mg, Li, In, and Ga; the group II-VI semiconductor material is selected from at least one of ZnS, ZnSe, and CdS; the group III-V semiconductor material is selected from at least one of InP and GaP; the group I-III-VI semiconductor material is selected from at least one of CuInS and CuGaS.
[0079] The thin film 61 provided in the embodiment of the present application contains a first modifying material, and the first modifying material includes maleimide and / or maleimide derivatives. Since the electron density in the first modifying material (maleimide and / or maleimide derivatives) is small (electron-deficient), it can act as an electron acceptor, while the N-type semiconductor material has good conductivity and can act as an electron carrier. Since electrons are easily transferred from the electron carrier to the electron acceptor, that is to say, electrons are easy to flow between the N-type semiconductor material and the first modifying material, so that the thin film 61 can have good electron transport performance, and when the thin film 61 is applied to optoelectronic devices, the electrical performance of the optoelectronic devices can be improved.
[0080] Please refer to Figure 4 , and at the same time combine Figure 1 , the embodiment of the present application provides a method for preparing a thin film, including:
[0081] S110, providing a composite material solution, the composite material solution includes a first modifying material, an N-type semiconductor material, and a first solvent, and the first modifying material includes maleimide and / or maleimide derivatives.
[0082] S120, depositing the composite material solution to obtain the thin film 61.
[0083] Exemplarily, in the composite material solution, the concentration of the first modifying material is 1 mg / ml to 5 mg / ml (such as 1 mg / ml, 2 mg / ml, 3 mg / ml, 4 mg / ml, 5 mg / ml, etc.), and the concentration of the N-type semiconductor material is 10 mg / ml to 50 mg / ml (such as 10 mg / ml, 15 mg / ml, 20 mg / ml, 25 mg / ml, 30 mg / ml, 35 mg / ml, 40 mg / ml, 45 mg / ml, 50 mg / ml, etc.).
[0084] It should be noted that the reason for setting the concentration of the N-type semiconductor material in the composite material solution to 10 mg / ml to 50 mg / ml is as follows: when the concentration of the N-type semiconductor material is greater than 50 mg / ml, due to the too high concentration, the collision of the N-type semiconductor material in the solution will be accelerated, and the agglomeration of the N-type semiconductor material is more likely to occur. When the concentration of the N-type semiconductor material is less than 10 mg / ml, due to the low concentration, the thickness of the prepared thin film 61 will be too thin and the film thickness will be uneven.
[0085] Exemplarily, the first solvent in the composite material solution includes at least one of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMEAA), N,N-dimethylpropionamide (DMPA), 1,2-dichloroethane, ethyl acetate, chloroform, dichloromethane, tetrahydrofuran (THF), dinitrotoluene, ethanol, and acetone.
[0086] Exemplarily, depositing the composite material solution to obtain the thin film 61 includes: depositing the composite material solution to obtain a first wet film layer, and performing a first annealing treatment on the first wet film layer to obtain the thin film 61, wherein the temperature of the first annealing treatment is 80°C to 120°C (such as 80°C, 90°C, 100°C, 110°C, 120°C, etc.), and the time of the first annealing treatment is 5 minutes to 10 minutes (such as 5 minutes, 6 minutes, 7 minutes, 8 minutes, 9 minutes, 10 minutes, etc.).
[0087] It should be noted that the reason for selecting the heating temperature to be 80°C to 120°C is as follows: when the heating temperature is higher than 120°C, the ligands on the surface of the N-type semiconductor material (such as zinc oxide nanoparticles) will be inactivated, increasing the steric hindrance and reducing the electron transport efficiency. When the heating temperature is lower than 80°C, the solvent in the thin film 61 cannot be completely removed, and when other functional thin films 61 are prepared on the thin film 61 later, the material of the composite thin film 61 will be washed away.
[0088] Exemplarily, the composite material solution further includes a second modification material, the second modification material includes fulvalene and / or fulvalene derivatives, and the concentration of the second modification material in the composite material solution is 1 mg / ml to 5 mg / ml (such as 1 mg / ml, 2 mg / ml, 3 mg / ml, 4 mg / ml, 5 mg / ml, etc.).

[0093] Exemplarily, the thickness ratio of the second sub-layer 612 to the first sub-layer 611 is (1 - 5):30, such as 1:30, 2:30, 3:30, 4:30, 5:30, etc.
[0094] Exemplarily, depositing the first modifying material solution to obtain the second sub-layer 612 includes: depositing the first modifying material solution to obtain a second wet film layer, annealing the second wet film layer to obtain the second sub-layer 612, the annealing temperature is 80°C to 120°C (such as 80°C, 90°C, 100°C, 110°C, 120°C, etc.), and the annealing time is 5 minutes to 10 minutes (such as 5 minutes, 6 minutes, 7 minutes, 8 minutes, 9 minutes, 10 minutes, etc.).

[0096] It should be noted that the order of S210 and S220 in the embodiments of the present application is not limited, that is, the second sub-layer 612 can be prepared first or the first sub-layer 611 can be prepared first; in some embodiments, the second sub-layer 612 is prepared first and then the first sub-layer 611 is prepared. At this time, deposit the N-type semiconductor material solution on the second sub-layer 612 to obtain the first sub-layer 611.
[0097] Exemplarily, in the N-type semiconductor material solution, the concentration of the N-type semiconductor material is 10 mg / ml to 50 mg / ml, such as 10 mg / ml, 15 mg / ml, 20 mg / ml, 25 mg / ml, 30 mg / ml, 35 mg / ml, 40 mg / ml, 45 mg / ml, 50 mg / ml, etc.
[0098] It should be noted that the reason for setting the concentration of the N-type semiconductor material in the N-type semiconductor material solution to 10 mg / ml to 50 mg / ml is as follows: when the concentration of the N-type semiconductor material is greater than 50 mg / ml, due to the too high concentration, the collision of the N-type semiconductor material in the solution will be accelerated, and the phenomenon of agglomeration of the N-type semiconductor material is more likely to occur. When the concentration of the N-type semiconductor material is less than 10 mg / ml, due to the low concentration, the thickness of the obtained first sub-layer 611 will be too thin and the film thickness will be uneven.

[0100] Exemplarily, depositing the N-type semiconductor material solution to obtain the first sub-layer 611 includes: depositing the N-type semiconductor material solution on the second sub-layer 612 to obtain a third wet film layer, and performing a second annealing treatment on the third wet film layer to obtain the first sub-layer 611, wherein the temperature of the second annealing treatment is 80 °C to 120 °C (such as 80 °C, 90 °C, 100 °C, 110 °C, 120 °C, etc.), and the time of the second annealing treatment is 5 minutes to 10 minutes (such as 5 minutes, 6 minutes, 7 minutes, 8 minutes, 9 minutes, 10 minutes, etc.).
[0101] It should be noted that the reason for selecting the heating temperature to be 80 °C to 120 °C is as follows: when the heating temperature is higher than 120 °C, the ligands on the surface of the N-type semiconductor material (such as zinc oxide nanoparticles) will be inactivated, increasing the steric hindrance and reducing the electron transport efficiency. When the heating temperature is lower than 80 °C, the solvent in the first sub-layer 611 cannot be completely removed, and the material of the first sub-layer 611 will be washed away when preparing other functional thin films 61 on the first sub-layer 611 subsequently.

[0110] Exemplarily, the thickness ratio of the third sub-layer 613, the first sub-layer 611, and the second sub-layer 612 is (1 - 5):30:(1 - 5), such as 1:30:1, 2:30:2, 3:30:3, 4:30:4, 5:30:5, 1:30:3, 2:30:5, 2:30:4, etc.
[0111] Please refer toFigure 6 Meanwhile, in combination with Figures 1 to 3 An embodiment of the present application further provides an optoelectronic device 100, which includes an anode 21 and a cathode 22 disposed opposite to each other, and N light-emitting unit layers 30 and N - 1 charge generation layers 40 disposed between the anode 21 and the cathode 22. One charge generation layer 40 is disposed between every two adjacent light-emitting unit layers 30, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 2.

It should be noted that, due to the relatively small electron density (electron - deficient) in the material (maleimide and / or maleimide derivative) of the second sub - layer 612 and the relatively large electron density (electron - rich) in the material (fulvalene and / or fulvalene derivative) of the third sub - layer 613, electrons are likely to flow in the direction from the third sub - layer 613 to the second sub - layer 612, thereby improving the electron transport performance of the thin film 61.

[0228] Performance Test:
[0229] (1) Electron mobility test of the thin film: Controlled by LabView, QE PRO and Keithley 2400 are used to build a set of QLED efficiency test systems. The current density-voltage curve of the single-carrier transport thin film device (EOD) is tested by this system. Through the current density-voltage curve, the space charge limited current (SCLC) region in the curve is obtained, and then according to the formula J = (9 / 8)ε r ε0μ e V 2 / d 3 the electron mobility is calculated, where J represents the current density, with the unit mAcm -2 ; ε r represents the relative dielectric constant, ε0 represents the vacuum dielectric constant; μ e represents the electron mobility, with the unit cm 2 V -1 s -1 ; V represents the driving voltage, with the unit V; d represents the film thickness, with the unit m. The test results are shown in Table 1.
[0230] Table 1
[0231]
[0232] It can be seen from Table 1 that the electron mobility of thin film embodiments 1-11 is greater than that of thin film comparison example 1. It is known that the difference between thin film embodiments 1-11 and thin film comparison example 1 is that the thin films prepared by thin film embodiments 1-11 of the present application all include ZMO (magnesium-doped zinc oxide) nanoparticles and a first modifying material (N-benzylmaleimide), while the thin film of thin film comparison example 1 is only composed of ZMO (magnesium-doped zinc oxide) nanoparticles. This shows that the present application can improve the electron mobility of the thin film by adding the first modifying material (N-benzylmaleimide) to the thin film, thereby making the thin film have better electron transmission performance.
[0233] (2) The optoelectronic devices prepared in device examples 1-11 and device comparison example 1 were tested. The FPD optical property measurement equipment was used to control the efficiency test system built by QE PRO spectrometer, Keithley2400, and Keithley6485 through LabView to measure parameters such as voltage, current, and brightness, and the luminous efficiency CE was calculated. The test results are shown in Table 2 below.
[0234] Table 2
[0235]
[0236]
[0237] Please refer to Table 2 above, it can be seen that the luminous efficiency of the optoelectronic devices of device embodiments 1-11 is greater than the luminous efficiency of the optoelectronic devices of device comparison example 1. It is known that the difference between device embodiments 1-11 and device comparison example 1 is only the material and manufacturing method of the thin film (first electron transport layer). The thin film (first electron transport layer) in device embodiments 1-11 of the present application includes ZMO (magnesium-doped zinc oxide) nanoparticles and a first modifying material (N-benzylmaleimide), while the thin film (first electron transport layer) of device comparison example 1 is only composed of ZMO (magnesium-doped zinc oxide) nanoparticles. This shows that after adding the first modifying material (N-benzylmaleimide) to the thin film (first electron transport layer), the electron transport performance of the thin film (first electron transport layer) can be improved, thereby improving the luminous efficiency of the optoelectronic device.
[0238] By comparing Device Examples 1-3 and Device Example 10, it can be seen that the luminous efficiency of the optoelectronic device in Device Example 10 is significantly lower than that of the optoelectronic devices in Device Examples 1-3. It is known that the only difference between Device Examples 1-3 and Device Example 10 is that in the thin film (the first electron transport layer) prepared in Device Examples 1-3, the mass ratio of the first modifying material to the N-type semiconductor material is (1-5):30, while in the thin film (the first electron transport layer) prepared in Device Example 10, the mass ratio of the first modifying material to the N-type semiconductor material is 10:30. It can be seen that this is due to the excessive content of the first modifying material (N-benzylmaleimide) in the thin film (the first electron transport layer) prepared in Device Example 10. It should be noted that when the content of the first modifying material (N-benzylmaleimide) in the thin film is excessive, since the conductivity of the first modifying material (N-benzylmaleimide) is poor, the conductivity of the thin film (the first electron transport layer) will be poor, thereby affecting the luminous efficiency of the optoelectronic device. In this application, by controlling the mass ratio of the first modifying material to the N-type semiconductor material to be (1-5):30, it is possible to ensure that the thin film (the first electron transport layer) has good conductivity, and thus ensure that the optoelectronic device has a high luminous efficiency.
[0239] By comparing Device Examples 5-7 and Device Example 11, it can be seen that the luminous efficiency of the optoelectronic device in Device Example 11 is significantly lower than that of the optoelectronic devices in Device Examples 5-7. It is known that the only difference between Device Examples 5-7 and Device Example 11 is that in the thin film (the first electron transport layer) prepared in Device Examples 5-7, the mass ratio of the second modifying material to the N-type semiconductor material is (1-5):30, while in the thin film (the first electron transport layer) prepared in Device Example 11, the mass ratio of the second modifying material to the N-type semiconductor material is 10:30. It can be seen that this is due to the excessive content of the second modifying material (4,4'-diphenyltetrathiafulvalene) in the thin film (the first electron transport layer) prepared in Device Example 11. It is known that the conductivity of the second modifying material (4,4'-diphenyltetrathiafulvalene) is good. However, when the content of the second modifying material (4,4'-diphenyltetrathiafulvalene) in the thin film (the first electron transport layer) is excessive, the electron concentration in the thin film (the first electron transport layer) will be too large, and the high-concentration electrons will accumulate at the interface between the hole transport layer and the light-emitting layer, resulting in the electrochemical corrosion and damage of the organic material in the hole transport layer, thereby causing the luminous efficiency of the optoelectronic device to decrease. In this application, by controlling the mass ratio of the second modifying material to the N-type semiconductor material to be (1-5):30, it is possible to ensure that the optoelectronic device has a high luminous efficiency.
[0240] The above has introduced in detail the thin film provided by the embodiments of the present application, its preparation method, optoelectronic device, and display device. Specific examples are used herein to elaborate on the principle and implementation manner of the present application. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the present application. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the idea of the present application, there will be changes in the specific implementation manner and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation to the present application.
