Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of organic electroluminescent materials, and in particular to a host material, an organic electroluminescent material containing two hosts, and a light-emitting device. Background Art

[0002] Organic electroluminescent devices are self-luminous devices that have attracted widespread attention in the panel display device industry due to their low driving voltage, high resolution, high brightness, fast response time, and flexibility. In addition, the raw materials have low production costs, are easy to process, and have high purity.

[0003] Currently, OLED display technology has been applied in fields such as smartphones and tablets, and will also expand to large-size application fields such as TVs. However, compared with actual product application requirements, OLED's luminous efficiency and service life and other performance still need to be further improved.

[0004] The luminescent material of an organic electroluminescent device (OLED) is the most important factor in determining the device's luminous efficiency. Functionally, it can be divided into a host material and a dopant material. By mixing a host and a dopant, the luminescent material can be used to improve color purity, luminous efficiency, and stability. Devices with excellent electroluminescent (EL) properties typically have a structure in which a luminescent layer is formed by doping a host with a dopant. When using such a dopant / host material system as the luminescent material, the host material significantly affects the efficiency and lifespan of the luminescent device, making the selection of a suitable host material crucial.

[0005] Therefore, the current urgent task is to develop OLEDs with high efficiency and long life characteristics, especially considering the EL characteristics required for medium and large OLED panels, it is urgent to develop light-emitting materials that are superior to conventional light-emitting materials and have excellent performance.

[0006] In view of this, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The object of the present invention is to provide a host material, an organic electroluminescent material containing dual hosts, and a light-emitting device.

[0009] The host material provided by the present invention contains a naphthoxazolyl nucleus, which is a fusion of a naphthalene ring (a 10-membered aromatic system composed of two benzene rings) and an oxazole ring. The naphthalene ring itself has a larger conjugated system and a more complex electron cloud distribution. After fusion with the oxazole ring, the overall conjugation length is longer, covering a wider range of luminescent colors. The rigidity and electron distribution of the naphthalene ring allow for longer charge transfer paths within the naphthoxazolyl molecule and potentially tighter π-π stacking, affecting charge mobility (electron / hole transport capacity), thereby changing the charge balance and luminous efficiency in the device. By attaching a triarylamine to the benzene ring of the naphthoxazolyl nucleus as a backbone, and also attaching groups such as carbazole, 9-phenyl-9H-carbazole, dibenzofuran, and a series of derivatives to the oxazole ring, the compound can better regulate the HOMO energy level and exhibit good electron push ability, significantly enhancing the compound's hole transport performance.

By attaching a triarylamine to the benzene ring of the naphthoxazolyl as a backbone, and also attaching groups such as carbazole, 9-phenyl-9H-carbazole, dibenzofuran, and a series of derivatives to the oxazole ring, the compound's HOMO energy level can be better adjusted, and its good electron push ability significantly enhances the compound's hole transport performance. As a hole transport layer material for devices, it will significantly improve the luminous efficiency and service life of organic light-emitting devices.

Statistics of host material selection used in organic electroluminescent devices of different examples

[0053] The comparative example structure is shown in Table 2: Table 2. Statistics of compounds represented by different numbers in comparative examples

[0054] Preparation of organic electroluminescent devices The preparation method of the organic electroluminescent device is as follows: (1) An ITO (indium tin oxide) glass substrate with a thickness of 1500 angstroms was cleaned twice in distilled water and ultrasonically washed for 30 minutes. It was then repeatedly cleaned twice in distilled water and ultrasonically washed for 10 minutes. After washing, it was ultrasonically washed in methanol, acetone, and isopropanol in sequence (5 minutes each time), dried, and then transferred to a plasma cleaning machine for washing for 5 minutes to obtain an ITO anode.

[0055] (2) In an evaporation machine, HIL is vacuum-deposited on the surface of the ITO anode obtained in step (1) to a thickness of 700 angstroms to obtain a hole injection layer.

[0056] (3) Vacuum-depositing HTL on the surface of the hole injection layer obtained in step (2) is performed by first evaporating HTL1 with a thickness of 50 angstroms and then evaporating HTL2 with a thickness of 700 angstroms on the surface thereof to form a hole transport layer.

[0057] (4) Evaporating the light-emitting layer material on the surface of the hole transport layer, and performing linear gradient co-evaporation by a multi-source co-evaporation method with a thickness of 300 angstroms to obtain a light-emitting layer; the material of the light-emitting layer includes an organic electroluminescent material containing a dual host and a doping material, the mass ratio of the first host compound to the second host compound in the organic electroluminescent material containing a dual host is 6:4, and the mass ratio of the organic electroluminescent material containing a dual host to the doping material is 10:1, and the organic electroluminescent material containing a dual host is the host material provided in device examples 1 to 15, comparative examples 1 to 9, and parallel examples 1 to 8, respectively.

[0058] (5) HBL is evaporated on the surface of the light-emitting layer obtained in step (4) to a thickness of 100 angstroms to form a hole blocking layer.

[0059] (6) Vacuum evaporate ETL on the surface of the hole blocking layer obtained in step (5) to a thickness of 300 angstroms to obtain an electron transport layer.

[0060] (7) EIL (Liq) was vacuum evaporated on the surface of the electron transport layer obtained in step (6) to a thickness of 15 angstroms to obtain an electron injection layer.

[0061] (8) 1200 angstroms of Al is evaporated on the surface of the electron injection layer obtained in step (7) to form a cathode, thereby obtaining the organic electroluminescent device.

[0062] The structures of the materials (HIL, HTL1, HTL2, dopant material, HBL, ETL, EIL) used in the preparation of the organic electroluminescent device are as follows: .

[0063] The driving voltage, luminous efficiency, and the time it takes for the brightness of the organic electroluminescent device to decrease from 100% to 95% (lifetime; T95) were tested at a brightness of 3000 nits. The test results are shown in Table 2.

[0064] Table 2

[0065] Comparisons of Comparative Examples 1-9 show that using a combination of the first and second host compounds as the host material for the light-emitting layer significantly improves luminous efficiency and service life. Using only one of these compounds significantly reduces the device's luminous efficiency, significantly shortens its service life, and increases its voltage. Comparisons of Comparative Examples 2, 4, 6, and 8 with Parallel Examples 1-2 show that the performance of devices made with the first host material of the present invention is significantly superior to that of Comparative Examples E-1 to E-4.

[0066] By comparing device examples 1 to 15 with parallel examples 3-8, it can be seen that the efficiency of parallel examples 3-8 is 36.6-38.8 cd / A, the driving voltage is 4.14-4.45 V, and the lifespan is 563-587 h, while the luminous efficiency of device examples 1-15 of the present invention is 46.7-48.6 cd / A, which is significantly higher than parallel examples 3-8; the driving voltage is 3.58-3.70 V, which is significantly lower than parallel examples 3-8; and the lifespan is 768-805 h, which is much higher than parallel examples 3-8.

[0067] The reason is that, E-1, E-2 and E-3 are ternary fused ring anthracene, phenanthrene and oxazole ring condense, phenyl is connected at oxazole ring, compared to the oxazole ring of the naphthooxazole parent core of the application, connected to carbazole, 9-phenyl-9H-carbazole, dibenzofuran and other groups, ternary fused ring anthracene, phenanthrene and oxazole ring condense have larger conjugated system, and the core naphthalene ring of the naphthooxazole of the application has smaller conjugated system than the core phenanthrene ring of phenanthrene or anthraoxazole. Smaller conjugated system generally means larger energy gap. Therefore, naphthooxazole derivatives generally have higher triplet energy level, can effectively limit exciton luminescence on guest molecule, prevent energy from being passed back to main body and cause energy loss, while on oxazole ring, connecting carbazole, 9-phenyl-9H-carbazole, dibenzofuran and other groups can better regulate the HOMO energy level of compound, energy gap matching is more flexible, contributes to reducing the energy loss at interface.

[0068] It can be seen that the main material of the light-emitting layer is a compound of a first main compound of a specific structure and a second main compound of a specific structure of the present invention, which can greatly improve the luminous efficiency and service life. This is because the present invention provides a first main material with a triarylamine skeleton, introduces groups such as carbazole, 9-phenyl-9H-carbazole, dibenzofuran and a series of derivatives on the parent nucleus of naphthoxazole, can better adjust the HOMO energy level of the compound, and has good electron push ability, which significantly enhances the hole transport performance of the compound. As a hole transport layer material of the device, it will greatly improve the luminous efficiency and service life of the organic light-emitting device. At the same time, a second main body with a triazine structure is also provided for matching. Therefore, when a donor with good hole transport (p-type main body) and an acceptor with good electron transport ability (n-type main body) are used as the main body of the light-emitting layer, the driving voltage will be reduced and the service life will be enhanced.

Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations of the present invention are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention are intended to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
