Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of organic optoelectronic materials, and particularly relates to a boron and nitrogen-containing polycyclic compound based on an indolocarbazole structure, a preparation method thereof, and applications thereof. Background Art
[0002] Organic optoelectronic materials are a class of organic functional materials that combine the functions of photon and electron generation, conversion, and transmission. With their excellent adjustable optoelectronic properties, such materials have been widely used in multiple emerging device fields, including organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic solar cells (OPVs), organic field-effect transistors (OFETs), and organic lasers. Among them, OLED technology has become a research and development hotspot in the international display industry in recent years and is widely regarded as one of the core solutions for the next generation of flat panel displays.
[0003] OLED displays have a series of remarkable advantages, such as high contrast and wide viewing angles brought by the self-luminous characteristics, extremely short response times, high luminous efficiency, wide color gamut, low driving voltage, and structural advantages such as being able to achieve thin, flexible, and large-area fabrication, showing comprehensive performance superior to that of traditional liquid crystal displays (LCDs). Therefore, they are hailed as the "star display technology of the 21st century". With the rapid development of ultra-high-definition display technology, OLED devices have put forward higher performance standards for red light-emitting materials, especially in terms of color purity, luminous efficiency, and device stability, and the requirements are becoming increasingly stringent. Traditional red fluorescent materials are difficult to meet the high-efficiency requirements due to low exciton utilization efficiency; although phosphorescent materials can achieve high-efficiency light emission, they usually rely on rare noble metal elements (such as iridium and platinum), and the emission bandwidth is relatively wide, resulting in low color purity and difficulty in meeting high-specification display standards such as the international ultra-high-definition display standard BT.2020. In recent years, thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials that have emerged, although theoretically capable of achieving 100% exciton utilization efficiency and having good efficiency potential, usually have a relatively wide emission band, resulting in a deviation of the color coordinates from the target value, and there is still a large room for optimization in the maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) and stability of the device.
[0004] In contrast, due to the excited-state localization and precise control of electron distribution brought by the rigid molecular skeleton of multi-resonant boron-nitrogen polycyclic compounds, narrow-band high-color-purity emission can be achieved, making it an important research direction for the next generation of high-performance red light materials. However, the existing red multi-resonant boron-nitrogen polycyclic compounds have relatively limited design strategies, and generally have problems such as large molecular size, complex synthesis routes, and poor process compatibility, making it difficult to meet the comprehensive requirements of high efficiency, easy synthesis, and processability in industrial applications.
[0005] To overcome the above technical bottlenecks, the present invention aims to introduce a rigid near-planar skeleton structure into the molecular structure, and use 11,12-dihydroindolo[2,3-a]carbazole and its derivatives (Indolo[2,3-a]carbazole, ICz) as fused donor units to effectively increase the intramolecular charge transfer excited state, thereby achieving a significant red shift of the emission wavelength and compression of the emission band. In addition, the enhancement of molecular rigidity is conducive to restricting the non-radiative transition process, while improving the spectral stability, significantly improving the luminescence efficiency and device lifetime of the material. Finally, a red boron-nitrogen polycyclic compound with high efficiency, high color purity, and excellent luminescence stability is realized, providing a high-performance solution with application potential for OLED devices for ultra-high definition displays. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The present invention provides a boron-nitrogen polycyclic compound based on an indolocarbazole structure, its preparation method and application, aiming to solve the problems of insufficient color purity, low luminescence efficiency, and poor stability of existing red light-emitting materials. By fusing the 11,12-dihydroindolo[2,3-a]carbazole (ICz) and its derivative donors with the 1,4-aza-boryl BN-heteroarene and its derivative (BNCz) cores through intramolecular donor fusion, a rigid near-planar structure is constructed, significantly enhancing the intramolecular charge transfer effect and achieving a large red shift of the spectrum. In addition, while reducing the molecular weight to achieve red light emission, the thermal decomposition temperature of the materials all reaches above 400 °C, which is suitable for vacuum thermal evaporation process.

[0159] Device Examples
[0160] In order to evaluate the luminescent properties of the compounds of the present invention in organic electroluminescent devices, a series of OLED devices based on multilayer organic thin film structures were designed and constructed. The specific preparation process is as follows:
[0161] (1) Substrate pretreatment
[0162] The substrate used is a conductive glass plate pre-coated with indium tin oxide (ITO). Its surface resistivity is approximately 15Ω / sq, which combines good electrical conductivity with visible light transmittance. Before device fabrication, it must be thoroughly cleaned to remove residual impurities and increase surface energy. The specific steps are as follows:
[0163] First, immerse the ITO glass in a commercial glass cleaner (such as 2% Elma EC or equivalent) and perform ultrasonic treatment for 20 to 30 minutes; then rinse thoroughly with deionized water to remove the residual cleaning agent; then place the substrate in a mixed solvent of acetone and ethanol for ultrasonic cleaning, treating each solvent twice for 10 minutes each time to further remove oil and organic impurities; the cleaned substrate is placed in a clean oven and heat-dried at about 100°C for at least 30 minutes to ensure that the surface moisture is completely removed; after cooling to room temperature, it is treated with a UV / ozone cleaning system for 10 minutes to further improve the hydrophilicity and hole injection ability of the ITO surface; finally, to further enhance the adhesion and interface quality of the organic layer, the substrate surface is bombarded with a low-energy ion beam (such as argon ions) to form a cleaner and more activated surface for subsequent organic layer deposition.
[0164] (2) Construction of hole injection layer (HIL)
[0165] The treated ITO substrate is placed in a vacuum evaporation chamber. After the system reaches high vacuum, the hole injection layer is first deposited. This layer uses a co-evaporation combination of HT and HI (mass ratio 97:3, w / w). The two materials are placed in different evaporation sources, and precise proportional control is achieved by adjusting the evaporation rate. The deposition rate is set to 0.1nm / s, and a uniform film of approximately 10nm is finally formed. This doping system is designed to improve the energy level matching between the anode and the organic layer and reduce the hole injection barrier.
[0166] (3) Deposition of hole transport layer (HTL) and electron blocking layer (EBL)
[0167] On top of the HIL, a hole transport layer (HTL) is continuously deposited. The material used is an HT series aromatic amine derivative, and the film thickness is controlled to be 60 nm. The evaporation rate is also set to 0.1 nm / s. The main function of this layer is to efficiently transport holes and suppress electron back-injection, maintaining good charge balance in the device. Subsequently, an electron blocking layer (EBL) with a thickness of 5 nm is deposited, still using HT-based materials, aiming to limit the penetration of electrons into the HTL region, thereby effectively enhancing the binding ability and recombination efficiency of excitons in the light-emitting region.
[0168] (4) Construction of the emission layer (EML)
[0169] The emission layer adopts a multi-source co-evaporation process. The host and guest materials are placed in independent evaporation sources respectively, and a co-doped composite emission film is formed by controlling the evaporation rate ratio at 100:3 (w / w). The main material is a TH-based host material, and the guest material is the red-light emitting material synthesized in this invention. The co-evaporation thickness is controlled to be 30 nm, and the evaporation rate is stably controlled within 0.1 nm / s.
[0170] (5) Construction of the electron transport region (HBL + ETL + EIL)
[0171] After the deposition of the emission layer, a 5-nm-thick hole blocking layer (HBL) is first deposited on it. The material is selected from the ET series, which is used to block the escape of holes to the electron region and enhance the electron injection interface simultaneously.
[0172] Subsequently, a 30-nm-thick electron transport layer (ETL) is deposited on the HBL, adopting a doping system of ET and LiQ (mass ratio 50:50, w / w). This combination helps to improve the electron transport rate and interface injection efficiency. The evaporation rate of the ETL is controlled at 0.1 nm / s. As the electron injection layer (EIL), a 0.5-nm-thick LiF is further deposited on the top of the ETL. Its excellent insulation and extremely low work function help to form an interface dipole and improve the electron injection efficiency from the Al cathode to the ETL.
[0173] (6) Deposition of the metal electrode (cathode)
[0174] Finally, an aluminum metal electrode with a thickness of about 150 nm is deposited on the EIL by thermal evaporation. The evaporation rate is set to 1.0 nm / s to form the cathode of the device. The evaporation processes of the entire organic layer and the cathode are completed in a continuous vacuum to avoid interface oxidation or contamination.
[0175] After the device is fabricated, it can be directly packaged or transferred to the testing process.
[0176] The structure of the organic light-emitting device constructed in this embodiment is as follows:
[0177] ITO / HIL (HT-4:HI-3 = 97:3, w / w, 10 nm) / HTL (HT-4, 30 nm) / EBL (HT-14, 10 nm) / EML (TH-5:MR-TADF = 100:3, w / w, 30 nm) / HBL (ET-13, 10 nm) / ETL (ET-14:LiQ = 50:50, w / w, 30 nm) / EIL (LiF, 0.5 nm) / Al (150 nm)
[0178] The descriptions of each functional layer are as follows:
[0179] ITO (Indium Tin Oxide): As the anode, it provides a hole injection channel and has good light transmittance;
[0180] HIL (Hole Injection Layer): Co-evaporated by HT-4 and HI-3 (mass ratio 97:3), with a thickness of about 10 nm, used to reduce the hole injection barrier;
[0181] HTL (Hole Transport Layer): Constructed with HT-4 material, with a thickness of 30 nm, providing an efficient hole transport channel;
[0182] EBL (Electron Blocking Layer): Set with HT-!4, with a thickness of 10 nm, effectively blocking electron penetration and promoting carrier recombination;
[0183] EML (Emitting Layer): Co-evaporated by the host material TH-5 and the red light guest material synthesized in this invention, with a mass ratio of 100:3 and a total thickness of 30 nm, achieving high-efficiency red light emission;
[0184] HBL (Hole Blocking Layer): Using ET-13 material, with a thickness of 10 nm, preventing hole leakage to the cathode side;
[0185] ETL (Electron Transport Layer): Co-evaporated by ET-14 and LiQ (mass ratio 50:50), with a thickness of 30 nm, used to improve electron injection and migration efficiency;
[0186] EIL (Electron Injection Layer): A 0.5 nm thick LiF layer, which can effectively reduce the work function difference between the metal and the organic layer;
[0187] Al (Aluminum Electrode): As the cathode, with a thickness of 150 nm, completing electron collection.
[0188] The compound structures used in the device are as follows:
[0189]
