Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of display technology, and more specifically, to an organic compound, an electroluminescent device, and a display apparatus. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, Organic Light Emitting Devices (OLEDs) have seen their applications expand from mobile phones to other high-quality information display devices due to their self-emissive nature, wide material selection, high brightness and efficiency, wide color gamut and viewing angle, fast response, and flexibility. With the development of product types and the increasing demands of various display devices, the requirements for OLED devices are becoming increasingly stringent, necessitating the development of devices with higher resolution, higher efficiency, lower voltage, and longer lifespan.
[0003] When light propagates between different media, it is lost at the interface due to differences in refractive index. To improve the luminous efficiency of OLED devices, a simple and effective method is to form a light extraction layer (also called a capping layer, CPL) on the transparent electrode as a functional layer. By adding a high-refractive-index light extraction layer to the device, the external quantum efficiency can be significantly improved, and light loss within the device can be reduced, thereby increasing the light extraction efficiency. Therefore, providing a high-refractive-index light extraction material to improve the light extraction efficiency of organic electronic components has become a pressing problem in this field.

Detailed Implementation
[0066] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0067] In the accompanying drawings, the size of constituent elements, the thickness of layers, or areas may sometimes be exaggerated for clarity. Therefore, any implementation of this disclosure is not necessarily limited to the dimensions shown in the drawings, and the shapes and sizes of the components in the drawings do not reflect true proportions. Furthermore, the drawings schematically illustrate ideal examples, and any implementation of this disclosure is not limited to the shapes or values shown in the drawings.
[0068] In recent years, Organic Light Emitting Devices (OLEDs) have seen their applications expand from mobile phones to other high-quality information display devices due to their self-emissive nature, wide material selection, high brightness and efficiency, wide color gamut and viewing angle, fast response, and flexibility. An OLED device consists of an emissive layer and a pair of electrodes on either side of it. When an electric field is applied between the two electrodes, electrons are injected from the negative electrode and holes from the positive electrode. These electrons and holes combine in the emissive layer to form an excited state. When the excited state returns to the ground state, the energy emitted emits light, achieving self-emissive emission from the OLED device. With the development of product types and the increasing demands of various display devices, the requirements for OLED devices are becoming increasingly stringent, necessitating the development of devices with higher resolution, higher efficiency, lower voltage, and longer lifespan.
[0069] When light travels between different media, it is lost at the interface due to differences in refractive index. To improve the luminous efficiency of OLED devices, a simple and effective method is to form a light extraction layer (also called a capping layer, CPL) on the transparent electrode as a functional layer. By adding a high-refractive-index light extraction layer to the device, the external quantum efficiency of the device can be significantly improved, and the light loss inside the device can be reduced, thereby improving the light extraction efficiency of the device.
[0070] In view of this, embodiments of this application propose an organic compound having the structural formula shown in general formula I:
[0071]
[0072] Wherein, L1 and L2 are each independently selected from substituted or unsubstituted C6-C36 arylene groups and substituted or unsubstituted C2-C36 heteroarylene groups, and m and n are each independently selected from integers from 0 to 4;
[0073] R1 and R2 are each independently selected from any one of hydrogen, deuterium, substituted or unsubstituted C1-C12 alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C2-C12 alkenyl, substituted or unsubstituted C3-C12 cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C2-C12 heterocycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C1-C12 alkoxy, substituted or unsubstituted C6-C36 aryl, substituted or unsubstituted C2-C36 heteroaryl, Ar1, Ar2, Ar3, Ar4, Ar5, and Ar6.
[0074] The organic compounds provided in this application embodiment are based on fluorenanthraquinone as the core group. Since fluorenanthraquinone is a large conjugated fused ring group, it has strong rigidity. At the same time, as shown in general formula I, the fluorenanthraquinone core group is connected to a branched structure. The branched structure is a substituted aromatic amine-like structure (e.g., the substituent is a benzo[a]heterocyclic ring or an aromatic ring, etc.), which has more lone pair electrons. Therefore, the organic compounds based on the core group and the branched structure have a large polarizability. When used as the light extraction layer of an electroluminescent device, it can effectively improve the light extraction efficiency and device performance.
