Description

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This application claims priority to and the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2024-0049403, filed on April 12, 2024, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Technical Field

[0003] One or more embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a light-emitting device including a heterocyclic compound, an electronic device including the light-emitting device, an electronic device including the light-emitting device, and the heterocyclic compound. Background Art

[0004] Among light-emitting devices, self-emitting devices (e.g., light-emitting devices) have relatively wide viewing angles, high contrast ratios, short response times, and excellent or appropriate characteristics in terms of brightness, driving voltage, and response speed. That is, self-emitting devices (e.g., light-emitting devices) stand out among light-emitting devices due to their wide viewing angles, high contrast ratios, fast response times, and excellent characteristics in terms of brightness, driving voltage, and response speed.

[0005] In a light-emitting device, a first electrode is arranged on a substrate, and a hole transport region, an emissive layer, an electron transport region, and a second electrode are arranged in sequence on the first electrode. Holes provided from the first electrode move toward the emissive layer through the hole transport region, and electrons provided from the second electrode move toward the emissive layer through the electron transport region. Carriers (such as holes and electrons) recombine in the emissive layer to generate excitons. The excitons transition from an excited state and decay to a ground state, thereby generating light (for example, for displaying an image). Summary of the Invention

[0006] One or more aspects of the embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a light-emitting device including a heterocyclic compound, an electronic device including the light-emitting device, an electronic equipment including the light-emitting device, and the heterocyclic compound.

[0490] quantum dots

[0491] In one or more embodiments, the emissive layer may include quantum dots.

[0492] The term "quantum dot" as used herein refers to a crystal of a semiconductor compound and may include any material capable of emitting light at one or more appropriate emission wavelengths depending on the size of the crystal.

[0493] The diameter of a quantum dot can be, for example, in the range of about 1 nm to about 10 nm. In the present disclosure, when a dot, a plurality of dots, or a dot particle is spherical, "diameter" indicates the particle size or average particle size, and when the particle is non-spherical, "diameter" indicates the major axis length or average major axis length. The diameter of the particle can be measured using a scanning electron microscope or a particle size analyzer. For example, a HORIBA, LA-950 laser particle size analyzer can be used as a particle size analyzer. When the size of the particle is measured using a particle size analyzer, the average particle size is referred to as D 50 . D 50 It refers to the average diameter of the particles whose cumulative volume corresponds to 50% by volume in a particle size distribution (e.g., cumulative distribution), and refers to the value of the particle size corresponding to 50% starting from the smallest particle when the total number of particles is 100% in a distribution curve accumulated in order from the smallest particle size to the largest particle size.

[0494] Quantum dots can be synthesized by a wet chemical process, a metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) process, a molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) process, or any similar process.

[0495] The wet chemical process is a method that includes mixing a quantum dot precursor material with an organic solvent and then growing quantum dot particle crystals. As the quantum dot particle crystals grow, the organic solvent naturally acts as a dispersant that coordinates on the surface of the quantum dot particle crystals and controls the growth of the quantum dot particle crystals. This allows the growth of quantum dot crystal particles to be controlled or selected through a process that is less expensive and easier than vapor deposition methods such as metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) or molecular beam epitaxy (MBE).

[0496] The 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; Group IV elements or compounds; or any combination thereof.

[0497] Non-limiting examples of II-VI semiconductor compounds may include binary compounds such as CdS, CdSe, CdTe, ZnS, ZnSe, ZnTe, ZnO, HgS, HgSe, HgTe, MgSe and / or MgS, etc.; ternary compounds such as CdSeS, CdSeTe, CdSTe, ZnSeS, ZnSeTe, ZnSTe, HgSeS, HgSeTe, HgSTe, CdZnS, Cd ... dZnSe, CdZnTe, CdHgS, CdHgSe, CdHgTe, HgZnS, HgZnSe, HgZnTe, MgZnSe and / or MgZnS, etc.; quaternary compounds, such as CdZnSeS, CdZnSeTe, CdZnSTe, CdHgSeS, CdHgSeTe, CdHgSTe, HgZnSeS, HgZnSeTe and / or HgZnSTe, etc.; or any combination thereof.

[0499] Non-limiting examples of III-VI semiconductor compounds may include: binary compounds, such as GaS, GaSe, Ga2Se3, GaTe, InS, InSe, In2S3, In2Se3 and / or InTe, etc.; ternary compounds, such as InGaS3 and / or InGaSe3, etc.; or any combination thereof.

[0500] Non-limiting examples of Group I-III-VI semiconductor compounds may include: ternary compounds such as AgInS, AgInS2, CuInS, CuInS2, CuGaO2, AgGaO2 and / or AgAlO2, etc.; or any combination thereof.

[0501] Non-limiting examples of Group IV-VI semiconductor compounds may include: binary compounds, such as SnS, SnSe, SnTe, PbS, PbSe and / or PbTe, etc.; ternary compounds, such as SnSeS, SnSeTe, SnSTe, PbSeS, PbSeTe, PbSTe, SnPbS, SnPbSe and / or SnPbTe, etc.; quaternary compounds, such as SnPbSSe, SnPbSeTe and / or SnPbSTe, etc.; or any combination thereof.

[0502] The Group IV elements or compounds may include: single elements, such as Si and / or Ge; binary compounds, such as SiC and / or SiGe; or any combination thereof.

[0503] Each element included in the multi-element compound (such as the binary compound, the ternary compound, and the quaternary compound) may be present in the particle at a substantially uniform concentration or a non-uniform concentration.

[0504] In one or more embodiments, the quantum dots may have a single structure (wherein the concentration of each element in the quantum dots is substantially uniform) or 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.

[0505] The shell of a quantum dot can act as a protective layer to prevent chemical denaturation of the core to maintain semiconductor properties and / or as a charging layer to impart electrophoretic properties to the quantum dot. The shell can be a single layer or multiple layers. The interface between the core and the shell can have a concentration gradient, where the concentration of the element present in the shell decreases toward the center of the core.

[0506] Examples of quantum dot shells may include metal oxides, metalloid oxides, or non-metal oxides, semiconductor compounds, and / or combinations thereof (e.g., any suitable combination thereof). Non-limiting examples of metal oxides, metalloid oxides, or non-metal oxides may include binary compounds such as SiO2, Al2O3, TiO2, ZnO, MnO, Mn2O3, Mn3O4, CuO, FeO, Fe2O3, Fe3O4, CoO, Co3O4, and / or NiO, etc.; ternary compounds such as MgAl2O4, CoFe2O4, NiFe2O4, and / or CoMn2O4, etc.; or any combination thereof. Examples of semiconductor compounds may include 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; or any combination thereof. For example, semiconductor compounds suitable as shells may include CdS, CdSe, CdTe, ZnS, ZnSe, ZnTe, ZnSeS, ZnTeS, GaAs, GaP, GaSb, HgS, HgSe, HgTe, InAs, InP, InGaP, InSb, AlAs, AlP, AlSb, or any combination thereof.

[0507] The quantum dots may have an emission spectrum with a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of about 45 nm or less, about 40 nm or less, or, for example, about 30 nm or less. When the FWHM of the emission spectrum of the quantum dots is within these ranges, the quantum dots may have improved color purity or improved color reproducibility. In addition, because the light emitted by the quantum dots is emitted in all directions, a wide viewing angle may be improved.

[0508] Additionally, quantum dots may be in the form of spherical nanoparticles, pyramidal nanoparticles, multi-armed nanoparticles, cubic nanoparticles, nanotubes, nanowires, nanofibers, and / or nanoplates, among others.

[0509] Because the band gap of quantum dots can be adjusted by controlling their size, light having one or more appropriate wavelength bands can be obtained from the quantum dot emission layer. Accordingly, by using quantum dots of different sizes, a light-emitting device that emits light in one or more appropriate wavelength bands can be implemented. For example, the size of the quantum dots can be selected to ensure that the quantum dots emit red, green, and / or blue light. In addition, quantum dots of appropriate size (diameter) can be configured to emit white light using a combination of one or more appropriate colors of light.
