Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of luminescent materials, and in particular relates to a deep blue narrow-band luminescent material, a preparation method thereof, and an electronic device. Background Art
[0002] Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have advantages such as flexibility, wide viewing angle, high contrast, high brightness, fast response speed, and simple manufacturing process, making them popular in modern scientific research and the commercial display industry. According to statistical distribution laws, during the electroluminescence (EL) process, the ratio of triplet and singlet states of excitons generated by the recombination of electrons and holes is 3:1. Luminescence achieved by the radiative transition of singlet excitons is called fluorescence, and luminescence achieved by the radiative transition of triplet excitons is called phosphorescence. Therefore, traditional fluorescent electroluminescence can only utilize a maximum of 25% of the input energy, while the remaining energy (75%) in the excited triplet state is not used. Therefore, how to achieve luminescence from excited triplet excitons is crucial to improving the quantum efficiency of the device.
[0003] By introducing heavy atoms, the spin-orbit coupling between different excited states can be effectively promoted, so that the lowest excited triplet state that was originally spin-forbidden can radiatively transition to produce photons. Therefore, 75% of the triplet excitons are fully utilized to achieve phosphorescence, and its internal quantum efficiency can theoretically reach 100%. However, since phosphorescent materials generally require the use of heavy metals such as iridium and platinum, they are not only expensive but also highly toxic. Therefore, thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials came into being. This type of material also theoretically has an internal quantum efficiency of 100% and is composed only of organic elements, with low cost. It is regarded as the most promising third-generation OLED material.
[0004] Traditional TADF materials are usually composed of a donor-acceptor structure, which can reduce the singlet-triplet energy level difference of the material and achieve effective TADF luminescence. However, due to the strong charge transfer properties of this type of molecule, during the excitation emission process, the structure has a large relaxation and the emission spectrum has a large red shift, resulting in a wide emission spectrum of the material and it is difficult to achieve deep blue light luminescence properties. Therefore, constructing rigid TADF molecules with multiple resonance effects is of great significance for achieving high-efficiency deep blue narrow-band OLEDs. However, high-performance deep blue light multiple resonance TADF molecules are always difficult to achieve; in addition, deep blue light multiple resonance TADF molecules often have a large singlet-triplet energy level difference, resulting in a small anti-intersystem crossing rate of the material, and ultimately showing a large efficiency roll-off when applied to OLEDs, which is not conducive to its commercial development. Summary of the Invention

Thus, features defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features.
[0024] The traditional TADF material structure has large relaxation and the emission spectrum has a large red shift, resulting in a wide emission spectrum and difficulty in achieving deep blue light emission. The current deep blue light multi-resonance TADF molecules often have a large singlet-triplet energy level difference, resulting in a low anti-intersystem crossing rate of the material. Ultimately, when applied to OLEDs, it shows a large efficiency roll-off, which is not conducive to its commercial development. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new narrow-band deep blue light emitting material with a faster anti-intersystem crossing rate, which is of great significance to promoting the application of low-cost TADF materials in OLEDs. Currently, the efficiency roll-off of organic light-emitting diodes is very serious as the brightness increases.
[0025] Based on the above considerations, this application studies and develops a new deep-blue narrow-band luminescent material, in which oxygen atoms are integrated into the resonance unit and further fused with the OBN unit to form a more rigid molecular structure, aiming to solve the problems of slow antisystem crossing rate and wide spectrum in existing deep-blue multi-resonance TADF materials. At the same time, the deep-blue narrow-band luminescent material developed by this application has the characteristics of simple synthesis method, low synthesis cost and can be prepared in large quantities. The electronic devices prepared using this type of material have low efficiency roll-off and high device stability. The specific plan is as follows.
[0026] In a first aspect, the embodiments of the present application provide a deep blue narrow-band luminescent material. The general molecular structure formula of the deep blue narrow-band luminescent material provided in the embodiments of the present application is as follows:
[0027]
[0028] Wherein, X is selected from an oxygen atom, and R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 are independently selected from at least one of a halogen atom and an alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms.
[0029] Based on the general formula of the molecular structure, it can be seen that the deep blue narrow-band luminescent material of the embodiment of the present application integrates oxygen atoms into the resonance unit, and further condenses it with the oxygen (O)-boron (B)-nitrogen (N) unit to form a more rigid molecular structure. On the one hand, it can promote the spin-orbit coupling degree of this type of material, thereby realizing a rapid exciton transition process. On the other hand, the more rigid molecular structure can achieve a narrower emission spectrum and deep blue light emission; therefore, the above-mentioned deep blue narrow-band luminescent material provided in the embodiment of the present application is a deep blue narrow-band thermally activated delayed fluorescence material that can improve the anti-intersystem crossing rate, and has great application in electronic devices such as electroluminescent devices.
[0030] Specifically, the structural design of the deep-blue narrow-band luminescent material of the present application adopts the strategy of integrating multiple resonance units with dense oxygen atoms. By integrating heavy oxygen atoms into the multiple resonance units to form a rigid multiple resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence material, deep blue light luminescence, extremely narrow emission spectrum and extremely high antisystem crossing rate are achieved.
[0031] In some embodiments, the deep blue narrow-band luminescent material of the present invention has a luminescence peak position ranging from about 435 to 455 nm, a half-peak width less than 20 nm, and an anti-intersystem crossing rate greater than 10 5 s -1 In addition, the deep-blue narrow-band luminescent material has good thermal stability, with a thermal decomposition temperature of over 400°C. It also has good solubility in commonly used organic solvents (such as dichloromethane, chloroform, and tetrahydrofuran), and can be used in high-performance solution-processed and vacuum-deposited electronic devices.
[0032] In some embodiments, the oxygen group atom of X includes at least one of oxygen (O), sulfur (S), selenium (Se), and tellurium (Te). These oxygen group atoms have similar properties, and integrating them into the resonance unit and fusing them with the OBN unit can form a more rigid molecular structure. For example, in some embodiments, X can be selected as oxygen.
[0033] In some embodiments, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 may be the same or different, and specifically, are independently selected from at least one of a halogen atom and an alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms. The halogen atom includes at least one of fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), and iodine (I), and the alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms may be a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, a butyl group, or the like.
[0034] In some embodiments, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 are identical. For example, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 are all methyl groups, or R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 are all fluorine atoms. When all of the above groups are methyl groups, the corresponding deep-blue narrow-band luminescent material has excellent solubility; when all of the above groups are fluorine atoms, the corresponding deep-blue narrow-band luminescent material has a further blue-shifted emission spectrum to the deep blue region or even close to the ultraviolet region.
[0035] In some embodiments, according to the selection of X, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6, a variety of symmetrical or asymmetrical deep blue narrow-band luminescent materials can be formed.

This method utilizes a mature reaction type, a one-step borylation reaction, and does not require hazardous reagents such as butyl lithium. This method not only simplifies the process and reduces synthesis costs, but also offers high yields and allows for large-scale production.
