[0075] Preparation of an organic light emitting device A glass plate coated with an ITO transparent conductive layer was subjected to ultrasonic treatment in a commercial cleaning agent, rinsing in deionized water, cleaning in acetone and ethanol each three times, baking in a clean environment until complete removal of moisture, cleaning with ultraviolet light and ozone, and surface bombardment with a low-energy cation beam. The ITO conductive glass was placed in a vacuum chamber, vacuumed to below 5 x 10 -4 Pa. The ITO conductive glass was used as an anode, and a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a light-emitting layer, a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, and a cathode were sequentially deposited thereon.
[0076] Electroluminescence spectra were collected using a photon multichannel analyzer QEPro (QEPRO-XR300-slitsize) for detection in the spectral region of 350-1050 nm. The external quantum efficiency of the device was obtained by measuring the forward light intensity using an integrating sphere (Hamamatsu A10094). All measurements were performed at room temperature in an atmospheric environment.
[0077] The structures and nomenclature of the functional layer compounds involved in the device are shown below: .
[0078] Device Example A1 A glass substrate coated with indium tin oxide (ITO) having a thickness of 1000 A was placed in distilled water with a cleaning agent dissolved therein and subjected to ultrasonic washing. After washing the ITO for 30 min, ultrasonic washing was repeated twice for 10 min using distilled water, and then using isopropyl alcohol, acetone, and methanol solvents, and drying was performed. The substrate was then transferred to a plasma cleaner. The substrate was cleaned using oxygen plasma for 6 min, and then transferred to a vacuum evaporator.
[0079] Molybdenum trioxide was vacuum-deposited on the transparent ITO electrode to a thickness of 30 A as a hole injection layer.
[0080] A compound 4,4'-cyclohexyl di[N,N-di(4-methylphenyl)aniline] (TAPC) (350 A) as a material for transporting holes was vacuum-deposited on the hole injection layer, thereby forming a hole transport layer.
[0081] Subsequently, a compound Z1 and 2-methyl-9,10-bis(naphthalen-2-yl)anthracene (MADN) were vacuum-deposited on the hole transport layer in a weight ratio of 5:95 to a thickness of 250 A, thereby forming a light-emitting layer.
[0082] Further, 4,6-bis(3,5-di(3-pyridyl)phenyl)-2-methylpyrimidine (B3PYMPM) (100 A) as an electron blocking material was vacuum-deposited on the light-emitting layer, thereby forming a hole blocking layer.
[0083] Then, 2,4,6-tris[3-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl]-1,3,5-triazine (POT2T) is vacuum-deposited on the hole-blocking layer to a thickness of 700 Å, thereby forming an electron transport layer.
[0084] Compound lithium fluoride (8 Å) and metal aluminum (1000 Å) are sequentially deposited on the electron transport layer as an electron injection layer and a metal electrode.
[0085] In the above process, the deposition rate of the hole injection layer material MoO3 and the electron injection layer material LiF is maintained at 0.3 Å / s, the deposition rate of the organic functional layer material, including the hole transport layer material, the electron blocking layer material, the light-emitting layer material, and the electron transport layer material, is maintained at 0.1 Å / s, the deposition rate of the electrode material metal aluminum is maintained at 0.3 Å / s, and the vacuum degree during deposition is maintained at 1×10 -7 ~5×10 -6 ~5×10

[0087] Device embodiments A2~A16 The same preparation conditions and processes as in device embodiment A1 are adopted, and only the compound Z1 in the light-emitting layer is replaced by the corresponding compound.
[0088] Figure 1 The electroluminescence spectrum of the organic electronic device using Z2 and Z3 as the light-emitting material is shown in the diagram, and it can be seen that the cyano-modified radical of the present application can improve the device efficiency and red-shift the emission wavelength.
[0089] Comparative examples B1~B2 The same preparation conditions and processes as in device embodiment A1 are adopted in comparative examples B1~B2, and only the compound Z1 in the light-emitting layer is replaced by the corresponding compounds R1 and R2, and the structures of R1 and R2 are shown as follows: .
[0090] The corresponding compounds and device parameters are listed in Table 2. It can be seen that, compared with the devices B1 and B2 of R1 and R2 which have been reported (only deep red electroluminescence is achieved), the devices A1~A16 of the compounds Z1~Z16 of the present application achieve near-infrared electroluminescence peak positions with significant red-shift. Moreover, on the basis of achieving significant red-shift of light emission, some of the devices A1~A16 also achieve significant improvement in device performance, and the maximum external quantum efficiency of some of them exceeds 6%.

[0092] In summary, the cyan-modified radical of the present application realizes red shift of emission while maintaining high luminous efficiency through synergistic regulation of the acceptor, and the device performance is excellent. Importantly, the cyan-modified radical of the present application has a simple preparation method and readily available raw materials, and can meet the development needs of industrialization.
[0093] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and does not limit the present application in any form. It should be noted that for ordinary skilled persons in the art, some improvements and refinements can be made without departing from the principles of the present application, and these improvements and refinements should also be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
