Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of display technology, and in particular to an organic compound, a mixture, a composition, an organic light-emitting device and a display panel. Background Art

[0002] Organic electroluminescence (OEL) technology utilizes the photoelectric properties of organic materials to directly convert electrical energy into light. Organic light-emitting devices based on this technology typically consist of an anode, a cathode, and multiple organic functional layers, including a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a light-assisting layer, a light-emitting layer, an electron transport layer, and an electron injection layer. Each layer contains specific organic substances designed to enhance the overall performance of the device. When a voltage is applied between the anode and cathode, holes are injected from the anode and electrons from the cathode. The two combine to form excitons, which release light energy as they return to their ground state. As a representative example of OEL technology, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have made a significant splash in the flat-panel display and lighting sectors thanks to their numerous advantages, including self-luminescence, high brightness, high efficiency, low voltage, wide viewing angle, and high contrast. Their wide viewing angle, fast response, low voltage requirement, and ultra-thin design fully demonstrate the enormous potential and broad application prospects of OLED technology in the future.

[0003] The selection and design of luminescent auxiliary materials play a vital role in improving the luminous efficiency and extending the service life of OLED devices. Carefully designed luminescent auxiliary materials can effectively balance the carrier transport in OLED devices, effectively inhibit the reverse migration of electrons, and promote the recombination of electrons and holes mainly in the central area of ​​the light-emitting layer, reducing the non-radiative recombination of excitons, thereby improving the luminous efficiency and extending the service life. Therefore, the development of more efficient new luminescent auxiliary materials to further optimize the hole and electron transport balance within the device is the key to improving device efficiency and life and maintaining a low driving voltage. This problem is a topic that researchers in this field urgently need to overcome. Summary of the Invention
