[0038] Reference will now be made in more detail to one or more embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout and the repeated description thereof may not be provided in the specification. In this regard, the present embodiments may have different forms and should not be construed as limited to the description set forth herein. Accordingly, only one or more embodiments are described in more detail by reference to the accompanying drawings to explain aspects of the present description. As used herein, the term "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. Throughout the present disclosure, the expression "at least one of a, b, and c" indicates only a, only b, only c, both a and b (e.g., simultaneously), both a and c (e.g., simultaneously), both b and c (e.g., simultaneously), all of a, b, and c, or variations thereof.

[0039] In this specification, "including A or B", "A and / or B", etc. mean A or B or both A and B.

[0040] As used herein, the terms "substantially", "about", and similar terms are used as approximate terms and not as terms of degree, and are intended to account for the inherent deviations of measured or calculated values that would be recognized by a person of ordinary skill in the art. As used herein, "substantially" includes the recited value and the range of acceptable deviations of the specific value as determined by a person of ordinary skill in the art in view of the error associated with the measurement being discussed (i.e., the limitations of the measurement system). For example, "substantially" may mean one or more standard deviations of the recited value, or ±30%, ±20%, ±10%, or ±5% of the recited value.

[0041] Also, any numerical range recited herein is intended to include all sub-ranges of the same numerical precision subsumed within the recited range. For example, a range of "1.0 to 10.0" is intended to include all sub-ranges between and including the recited minimum value of 1.0 and the recited maximum value of 10.0, that is, having a minimum value equal to or greater than 1.0 and a maximum value equal to or less than 10.0, such as, for example, 2.4 to 7.6. Any maximum numerical limitation recited herein is intended to include all lower numerical limitations subsumed therein and any minimum numerical limitation recited in this specification is intended to include all higher numerical limitations subsumed therein. Accordingly, the applicant reserves the right to amend this specification (including the claims) to expressly recite any sub-range that is subsumed within the ranges expressly recited herein.

[0050] In the following embodiments, if (e.g., when) one or more suitable components (such as a layer, film, region, and / or plate, etc.) are referred to as being "on" another component (such as a layer, film, region, and / or plate, etc.), this may include not only the case where the other component (such as a layer, film, region, and / or plate, etc.) is "directly on" the layer, film, region, and / or plate, but also the case where the other component (such as a layer, film, region, and / or plate, etc.) may be located therebetween. For convenience of explanation, the dimensions of the elements in the drawings may be enlarged. For example, since the dimensions (e.g., thickness) of the components are arbitrarily illustrated in the drawings for convenience of explanation, the following embodiments are not limited thereto.

[0101]

[0102]

[0103] According to one or more embodiments, the compound represented by Formula 1 may have a refractive index of about 1.8 or less with respect to light having a wavelength of about 450 nm. For example, the compound represented by Formula 1 may have a refractive index of about 1.6 to about 1.8, about 1.65 to about 1.8 or about 1.7 to about 1.8 with respect to light having a wavelength of about 450 nm.

[0104] According to one or more embodiments, the compound represented by Formula 1 included in the hole injection layer may be substantially the same as the compound represented by Formula 1 included in the hole transport layer.​​​

[0104] According to one or more embodiments, the hole transport region may further include a buffer layer, an emission assisting layer, an electron blocking layer, and / or a combination thereof (e.g., any suitable combination).

[0105] According to one or more embodiments, the electron transport region may include a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, and / or a combination thereof (e.g., any suitable combination).

[0106] According to one or more embodiments, the light emitting device may be a tandem device. For example, the laminate may include m emission units and m - 1 charge generation units each disposed between adjacent emission units, and m may be an integer of 2 or greater. For example, m may be an integer selected from 2 to 10.

[0107] According to one or more embodiments, each of the m emission units includes a hole transport region, an emission layer, and an electron transport region sequentially disposed from a first electrode to a second electrode, and the hole transport region may include a hole transport layer.

[0108] Each of the m - 1 charge generation units may include an n-type or type charge generation layer and a p-type or type charge generation layer. The p-type or type charge generation layer may be in direct contact with the hole transport layer in an adjacent emission unit.

[0109] According to one or more embodiments, at least one hole transport layer of the m emission units and the p-type or type charge generation layer in direct contact with the at least one hole transport layer may each include a compound represented by Formula 1, and the p-type or type charge generation layer may further include a p-type or type dopant.

[0110] For example, among the m emission units, the emission unit closest to the first electrode is set as the first emission unit, and the emission unit farthest from the first electrode is set as the mth emission unit. The first emission unit to the mth emission unit may be sequentially disposed. The (m - 1)th charge generation unit may be disposed between the (m - 1)th emission unit and the mth emission unit.

[0111] According to one or more embodiments, the first emission unit may further include a hole injection layer between the first electrode and the hole transport layer, and the hole injection layer and the hole transport layer may each include a compound represented by Formula 1, and the hole injection layer may further include a p-type or type dopant.

[0112] According to one or more embodiments, the hole injection layer and the hole transport layer in at least one emission unit and the p-type or type charge generation layer in direct contact with the hole transport layer may each include a compound represented by Formula 1, and the hole injection layer and the p-type or type charge generation layer may each further include a p-type or type dopant.

[0113] Light-emitting devices of the prior art use a high refractive index material for the hole injection layer or the p-type or species charge generation layer and the hole transport layer, or use a high refractive index material for the hole injection layer or the p-type or species charge generation layer and use a low refractive index material for the hole transport layer. Although, according to the optical efficiency, a material having a low refractive index is suitable or appropriate for the hole transport region, a portion showing a low refraction in such a material suppresses or reduces the hole transport characteristics. Accordingly, those configurations are provided to achieve a balance between the refractive index and the hole transport characteristics.

[0114] When the refractive indices of the hole injection layer (or the p-type or species charge generation layer) and the hole transport layer are high, the light absorbed or eliminated in the guiding mode increases, resulting in a decrease in the optical efficiency, i.e., the light output efficiency. In addition, if (for example, when) the material used for the hole injection layer (or the p-type or species charge generation layer) is different from the material used for the hole transport layer, then due to the difference in refractive index, total reflection between these layers may increase, resulting in light loss, and if (for example, when) these layers are also deposited, the number of desired or required deposition sources increases, and thus, the process may become more complicated.

[0115] By applying the same new material having a low refractive index to the hole injection layer or the p-type or species charge generation layer and the hole transport layer, the light-emitting device according to the present embodiment can obtain improved optical efficiency without increasing the driving voltage or reducing the lifespan.

[0301] Quantum dots

[0302] The emission layer may include quantum dots.

[0303] As used herein, the term "quantum dot" refers to a crystal of a semiconductor compound and may include any material capable of emitting light of one or more appropriate emission wavelengths depending on the size of the crystal. By adjusting the elemental ratio in the quantum dot compound, the quantum dot can be configured to emit light of one or more appropriate emission wavelengths.

[0304] The diameter of the quantum dot may, for example, be in the range of about 1 nm to about 10 nm.

[0305] Quantum dots can be synthesized by wet chemical processes, metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) processes, molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) processes, or any process similar thereto.

[0306] The wet chemical process is a method that includes mixing precursor materials with an organic solvent and then growing quantum dot particle crystals. When the quantum dot particle crystals grow, the organic solvent naturally acts as a dispersant coordinated on the surface of the quantum dot particle crystals and controls the growth of the quantum dot particle crystals. Accordingly, the growth of the quantum dot particle crystals can be controlled or selected by a process that is less costly and easier than vapor deposition methods (such as metalorganic chemical vapor deposition processes or molecular beam epitaxy processes).

[0307] Quantum dots may include: Group II-VI semiconductor compounds, Group III-V semiconductor compounds, Group III-VI semiconductor compounds, Group I-III-VI semiconductor compounds, Group IV-VI semiconductor compounds, and / or Group IV elements or compounds, combinations thereof (e.g., any suitable combination).

[0312] Examples of group IV-VI semiconductor compounds include: binary compounds such as SnS, SnSe, SnTe, PbS, PbSe, or PbTe; ternary compounds such as SnSeS, SnSeTe, SnSTe, PbSeS, PbSeTe, PbSTe, SnPbS, SnPbSe, or SnPbTe; quaternary compounds such as SnPbSSe, SnPbSeTe, or SnPbSTe; and / or combinations thereof (e.g., any suitable combination).

[0313] Examples of Group-IV elements or compounds may include: single elements such as Si or Ge; binary compounds such as SiC or SiGe; and / or combinations thereof (e.g., any suitable combination).

The above formula refers to the type (species) of elements included in each compound, and the element ratios in these compounds may be different from each other. For example, AgInGaS2 may indicate AgIn x Ga 1-x S2 (where x is a real number satisfying 0 < x < 1).

[0315] In one or more embodiments, the quantum dots may have a single structure in which the concentration of each element in the quantum dots is substantially uniform, or the quantum dots may have a core-shell dual structure. For example, the material included in the core and the material included in the shell may be different from each other.

[0316] The shell of the quantum dots may act as a protective layer to prevent chemical denaturation of the core to maintain semiconductor properties, and / or act as a charging layer to impart electrophoretic properties to the quantum dots. The shell may be a single layer or multiple layers. The interface between the core and the shell may have a concentration gradient in which the concentration of the elements present in the shell decreases toward the center of the core.

[0317] Examples of the shell of the quantum dots may be oxides of metals, oxides of metalloids, or oxides of non-metals, semiconductor compounds, and / or combinations thereof (e.g., any suitable combination). Examples of oxides of metals, oxides of metalloids, or oxides of non-metals are: binary compounds such as SiO2, Al2O3, TiO2, ZnO, MnO, Mn2O3, Mn3O4, CuO, FeO, Fe2O3, Fe3O4, CoO, Co3O4, or NiO; ternary compounds such as MgAl2O4, CoFe2O4, NiFe2O4, or CoMn2O4; and / or combinations thereof (e.g., any suitable combination). Examples of semiconductor compounds are Group II-VI semiconductor compounds as described herein; Group III-V semiconductor compounds; Group III-VI semiconductor compounds; Group I-III-VI semiconductor compounds; Group IV-VI semiconductor compounds; and / or combinations thereof (e.g., any suitable combination). For example, semiconductor compounds may include CdS, CdSe, CdTe, ZnS, ZnSe, ZnTe, ZnSeS, ZnTeS, GaAs, GaP, GaSb, HgS, HgSe, HgTe, InAs, InP, InGaP, InSb, AlAs, AlP, AlSb, and / or combinations thereof (e.g., any suitable combination).

[0318] Each element included in a multi-element compound (such as a binary compound and a ternary compound) may be present in the particles at a substantially uniform concentration or a substantially non-uniform concentration. The above formula refers to the type (species) of elements included in each compound, and the element ratios in these compounds may be different from each other.

[0319] The full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the emission wavelength spectrum of the quantum dots may be about 45 nm or less, for example, about 40 nm or less, for example, about 30 nm or less, and within these ranges, color purity and / or color reproducibility can be increased. Additionally, since the light emitted by the quantum dots is emitted in all directions, a wide viewing angle can be improved.

[0320] Additionally, the quantum dots may include (e.g., may be in the form of) spherical nanoparticles, cone nanoparticles, multi-arm nanoparticles, cube nanoparticles, nanotubes, nanowires, nanofibers, or nanoplatelets.

[0321] By adjusting the size of the quantum dots, the bandgap can be adjusted, and thus, light of one or more appropriate wavelengths can be obtained in the quantum dot emission layer. Therefore, by using the quantum dots as described above (by using quantum dots of different sizes or by changing the ratio of elements in the quantum dot compound), a light-emitting device configured to emit light of one or more appropriate wavelength bands can be achieved. In one or more embodiments, the size of the quantum dots can be selected to emit red, green, and / or blue light. In one or more embodiments, the quantum dots can be configured to emit white light through a combination of light of one or more appropriate colors.

[0501] Manufacture of the light-emitting device

[0502] Example 1

[0503] The ITO glass substrate on which Corning 15 Ω / cm 2 has been formed was ultrasonically cleaned for 15 minutes using acetone, isopropyl alcohol and pure water respectively, and then irradiated with ultraviolet rays for 30 minutes and exposed to ozone for cleaning to form an anode. Compound 1 and HAT-CN were co-deposited on the anode at a weight ratio of 9:1 to form

[0504] a thick hole injection layer (HIL), and then Compound 1 was deposited on the HIL to form a ​The hole transport layer (HTL) of the thickness. BH and BD are co-deposited on the HTL at a weight ratio of 99:1 to form one with The thickness of the emission layer (EML), and T2T is deposited on the EML to form one with The thickness of the hole blocking layer (HBL).

[0513] The light-emitting device was fabricated in substantially the same manner as in Example 1, except that the compounds shown in Table 1 were used in the HIL and HTL instead of Compound 1.

[0514] Comparative Examples 1 to 7

[0521] Evaluation Examples

[0522] Evaluation of the characteristics of the light-emitting device

[0523] To evaluate the characteristics of the light-emitting devices according to the Examples and Comparative Examples, the driving voltage, external quantum efficiency (EQE), and lifetime were measured when emitting light at a brightness of 7200 nits (e.g., when). The lifetime (T 95 ) was evaluated by measuring the time (hr) required for the device to reach 95% of the initial brightness when a current that causes the device to emit light with an initial brightness of 7200 nits was applied. The evaluation results of the light-emitting devices of the Examples and Comparative Examples are shown in Table 1 above.

[0524] Referring to Table 1, in the case of the light-emitting device of Example 1, the external luminous efficiency (external quantum efficiency) and lifetime are optimal, and the driving voltage is second only to that of Comparative Example 1. Comparative Example 1 has excellent or appropriate driving voltage and lifetime, but seems to have the lowest external luminous efficiency. Compared with Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2 has improved external luminous efficiency, and has a higher driving voltage and a lower lifetime. In the case of Comparative Example 3, the values of the driving voltage, external luminous efficiency, and lifetime are each between those of Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2. Example 2 has a driving voltage higher than that of Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 3, an external luminous efficiency higher than that of Comparative Examples 1 to 3, and a lifetime longer than that of Comparative Example 2.

[0525] NPB used in Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 3 has excellent or appropriate hole injection and transport characteristics, which is beneficial for reducing the driving voltage. However, due to its high refractive index, it is considered disadvantageous in terms of increasing the external luminous efficiency. TAPC used in Comparative Example 2 and Comparative Example 3 has a low refractive index, which is beneficial for increasing the external luminous efficiency, but is considered disadvantageous in terms of reducing the driving voltage of the hole injection and transport characteristics. In contrast, Compound 1 and Compound 5 of the present disclosure have a refractive index lower than or similar to that of TAPC. Their hole injection and transport characteristics are worse than those of NPB, but better than those of TAPC, and Compound 1 and Compound 5 exhibit appropriate lifetime characteristics. Therefore, in the case of Examples 1 and 2 in which Compound 1 or Compound 5 of the present disclosure is simultaneously (e.g., synchronously) applied to the hole injection layer and the hole transport layer, it is believed that the process can be simplified while maintaining the device characteristics at a level equal to or higher than a specific level.

[0526] Comparative Examples 4 to 7 use Compound C1 and / or Compound C2 in one or more of the hole injection layer and the hole transport layer. Comparative Examples 4 to 7 generally have a driving voltage higher than that of Examples 1 and 2 and Comparative Examples 1 and 3; an external luminous efficiency lower than that of Example 1 and higher than that of Comparative Examples 1 to 3; and a lifetime shorter than that of Example 1. Without being bound by any particular theory, it is believed that this is because Compound C1 and Compound C2 have bulky substituents (such as cyclohexyl or tert-butyl) introduced near the amine group where the HOMO (Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital) energy level is located, thus affecting the hole injection or hole mobility.

[0527] Although the present disclosure has been described with reference to the embodiments, these descriptions are provided for illustrative purposes only, and those of ordinary skill in the art will understand that these embodiments may have one or more suitable modifications and other embodiments equivalent thereto. Accordingly, the scope of the present disclosure should be determined by the technical concept of the claims and their equivalents.

[0528] The light-emitting device according to one or more embodiments can improve the optical efficiency and simplify the process by applying a new low refractive index compound to the hole injection layer, the charge generation layer, and the hole transport layer.

[0529] The light-emitting device, the display device, the electronic device, the electronic apparatus, or any other related device or component can be implemented using any suitable hardware, firmware (e.g., application specific integrated circuit), software, or a combination of software, firmware, and hardware. For example, various components of the device can be formed on one integrated circuit (IC) chip or on separate IC chips. Additionally, various components of the device can be implemented on a flexible printed circuit film, a tape carrier package (TCP), or a printed circuit board (PCB), or formed on a substrate. Moreover, various components of the device can be processes or threads running on one or more processors in one or more computing devices, executing computer program instructions and interacting with other system components to perform the various functions described herein. The computer program instructions are stored in a memory, which can be implemented using a standard storage device in a computing device, such as, for example, random access memory (RAM). The computer program instructions can also be stored in other non-transitory computer-readable media, such as, for example, a CD ROM or a flash drive, etc. Further, those skilled in the art will recognize that, without departing from the scope of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the functions of various computing devices can be combined or integrated into a single computing device, or the functions of a dedicated computing device can be distributed over one or more other computing devices.

The description of a feature or aspect in one or more embodiments should generally be considered applicable to other similar features or aspects in other embodiments. Although one or more embodiments have been described with reference to the drawings, those of ordinary skill in the art will understand that one or more suitable changes in form and detail can be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope defined by the claims and their equivalents.
