Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2024-0071395, filed on May 31, 2024, with the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

[0002] This disclosure relates to compounds and organic light-emitting devices containing the same. Background Technology

[0003] Generally, organic light emission refers to the phenomenon of converting electrical energy into light energy using organic materials. Organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) typically have a structure comprising an anode, a cathode, and an organic layer between them. Here, the organic layer usually has a multilayer structure composed of different materials to improve the efficiency and stability of the OLED. For example, it can consist of a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a light-emitting layer, an electron transport layer, and an electron injection layer. In the structure of an OLED, when a voltage is applied between the two electrodes, holes are injected from the anode into the organic layer, and electrons are injected from the cathode into the organic layer. When the injected holes and electrons recombine, they form excitons, and when the excitons return to the ground state, they emit light.

[0004] New materials need to be developed for organic light-emitting devices. Summary of the Invention

[0022] If g2 is 2 or greater, then two or more G2 values ​​are either the same or different.

[0030] Furthermore, an exemplary embodiment of this specification provides an organic light-emitting device comprising: an anode; a cathode; a first light-emitting layer disposed between the anode and the cathode; and a second light-emitting layer disposed between the first light-emitting layer and the cathode and in contact with the first light-emitting layer, wherein the first light-emitting layer comprises a compound of chemical formula 1, and the second light-emitting layer comprises a compound of chemical formula H.

[0038] Beneficial effects

[0039] The compounds described in this specification can be used as materials for the organic layer of organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs). Conventionally used anthracene-based compounds utilize triplet-triplet fusion (TTF) as their primary light-emitting mechanism. In OLEDs using anthracene-based compounds as the host of the light-emitting layer, the region where holes and electrons recombine (recombination region) corresponds to the region of light emission (light-emitting region). If a compound of Formula 1, which has a higher triplet energy than the anthracene-based compounds described in this specification, is used as the host along with a second host having a lower triplet energy, excitons are formed as holes and electrons recombine within the compound. Singlet states participate in light emission, and triplet states transfer to the second host with the lower triplet energy (Dexter energy transfer). The anthracene-based compound or the second host that has transferred to the triplet state emits light via TTF. This improves the efficiency and lifetime characteristics of the OLED.

[0056] The contents of this disclosure will be described in more detail below.

[0057] According to an exemplary embodiment of this specification, a compound of formula 1 is a compound in which formula 2 is bonded to...

Since the compound of Formula 1 has a higher triplet energy than conventionally used anthracene-based compounds, it transfers the triplet energy to the second host used together. This reduces triplet quenching of the compound compared to using the second host (anthracene-based compound) alone, and can improve the efficiency and lifetime characteristics of organic light-emitting devices.

[0058] Chemical formula 1 contains at least one deuterium.

[0059] According to an exemplary embodiment of this specification, since the physicochemical properties of deuterium (e.g., bond length, etc.) differ from those of hydrogen, and the stretching amplitude of the CD bond is smaller than that of the CH bond, the van der Waals radius of deuterium is smaller than that of hydrogen, and generally, the CD bond is shorter and stronger than the CH bond. Therefore, if Formula 1 contains deuterium as a substituent, the energy of the ground state is reduced, and due to the shortening of the bond length between deuterium and carbon, the volume of the molecular hard core is reduced, and thus, the polarizability can be reduced, and the film volume can be increased due to the weakening of intermolecular interactions. Furthermore, these properties can provide the effect of reducing the crystallinity of the film (i.e., forming an amorphous state), and can generally be effective in improving the lifetime and operating characteristics of organic light-emitting devices, and the heat resistance can be improved compared to conventional organic light-emitting devices.

For example, when analyzing the degree of deuteration of compound A, if the molecular weight of the starting material is 506 and... Figure 5 The maximum molecular weight (median) of compound A in the MS spectrum is 527. Therefore, 21 of the 26 hydrogens at the substituted positions of the starting material are replaced by deuterium, and thus it can be calculated that about 81% of the hydrogens are deuterated.

[0318] The cathode is the electrode into which electrons are injected. Specifically, the cathode material can be a material with a low work function, which facilitates electron injection, typically into an organic layer. Specific examples of cathode materials include, but are not limited to, metals such as magnesium, calcium, sodium, potassium, titanium, indium, yttrium, lithium, gadolinium, aluminum, silver, tin, and lead, or alloys thereof; multilayer materials such as LiF / Al or LiO2 / Al; and so on.

[0632] <Test Example 1: Calculation of Triplet Levels>

[0633] Using the TD-DFT (B3LYP) method / 6-31G Basis set methods are used to calculate the HOMO, LUMO, singlet, and triplet energy levels of the absorption states of the following compounds. Calculation results are identical for hydrogen (H) and deuterium (D) structures.

[0634] The results of calculating the HOMO, LUMO, singlet, and triplet energy levels of the following compounds are shown in Table 1 below.

[0635]

[0636] [Table 1]

[0637]

[0638] The relative values ​​of triplet energy levels for compounds with various functional groups (compounds A1 to A15) were investigated. As shown in Table 1, it was found that the triplet energy level of a compound is determined by the functional group in the compound that has the lowest triplet energy level.

[0639] The triplet energies of compounds B-1 to B-3 and X-4 were determined by compound A-1. Compounds X-2 and X-3, possessing the functional group A-4, exhibited the lowest triplet energy levels, similar to the T1 values ​​of A-4. Because compound B-4 has a triplet energy ratio... With higher functional groups, it can be expected that the triplet state energy of B-4 will be determined by compounds A-5 and A-6, which have similar values.

[0640] Furthermore, although the T1 values ​​of compounds A-9 and A-13 are lower than those of compound A-4, compounds A-9 and A-13 have similar values ​​that are 0.2 eV or less lower than the triplet energy level of compound A-4. Therefore, the T1 values ​​of compounds X-1, X-5, and X-8 are close to those of compounds X-2 and X-3, which are affected by compound A-4.

Next, a first electron transport layer was formed on the light-emitting layer by vacuum deposition of compound ET-A to a thickness of 50 Å, followed by vacuum deposition of ET-B and LiQ to a thickness of 300 Å. An electron injection layer was formed on the second electron transport layer by vacuum deposition of LiQ to a thickness of 5 Å. The cathode was formed by depositing aluminum and silver to a thickness of 220 Å on an electron injection layer in a weight ratio of 10:1, followed by depositing aluminum to a thickness of 1000 Å on top of that layer.

[0645] In the above process, the deposition rate of the organic material was maintained between 0.4 Å / s and 0.9 Å / s, the deposition rate of aluminum at the cathode was maintained at 2 Å / s, and the vacuum level during deposition was maintained at 1 × 10⁻⁶. -7 Up to 5×10 -8 To prepare organic light-emitting devices.

[0656] Compared with Examples 1-1 to 1-5, which used compounds of this specification, Comparative Example 1-1, which used compound B-6, showed similar efficiency and lifetime, but had the problem that the maximum emission wavelength of the organic light-emitting device was long, and therefore the color purity of the blue light emission was reduced.

[0657] Furthermore, comparing Examples 1-1 to 1-5 of this specification with Comparative Examples 1-3, it was determined that the lifetime of Examples 1-1 to 1-5 was improved compared with Comparative Examples 1-3, which can be attributed to the effect of deuterium substitution.

[0659] Example 2-1

[0660] A glass substrate coated with 1,400 Å thick indium tin oxide (ITO) was immersed in distilled water containing a cleaning agent and then ultrasonically cleaned. A Fischer Co. product was used as the cleaning agent. Distilled water, filtered twice through a Millipore Co. filter, was used. After washing the ITO for 30 minutes, the substrate was ultrasonically cleaned twice for 10 minutes each time with distilled water. Following the distilled water wash, the glass substrate was ultrasonically cleaned using isopropanol, acetone, and methanol as solvents, dried, and then transferred to a plasma cleaner. Additionally, the substrate was cleaned with oxygen plasma for 5 minutes before being transferred to a vacuum evaporation machine.

[0661] A hole injection layer was formed on the ITO transparent electrode prepared as described above by vacuum deposition of compounds HT-A and HI-A to a thickness of 110 Å at a weight ratio of 90:10. A hole transport layer was formed on the hole injection layer by vacuum deposition of HT-A to a thickness of 1000 Å. An electron blocking layer was formed on the hole transport layer by vacuum deposition of HT-B to a thickness of 50 Å. Next, a first emitting layer was formed by co-depositing the substrate of the first emitting layer shown in Table 3 and the blue fluorescent dopant BD-1 at a weight ratio of 95:5 (wt%), and a second emitting layer was formed by co-depositing the substrate of the second emitting layer and the blue fluorescent dopant BD-1 at a weight ratio of 95:5 (wt%).

[0662] The thicknesses of the first and second luminescent layers are shown in Table 3. The sum of the thicknesses of the two luminescent layers is 250 Å. Next, compound ET-A to a thickness of 50 Å is vacuum-deposited on the luminescent layers as a first electron transport layer, followed by the formation of a second electron transport layer of 300 Å thickness by vacuum deposition of ET-B and LiQ at a weight ratio of 2:1. An electron injection layer is formed by vacuum deposition of LiQ to a thickness of 5 Å on the second electron transport layer. A cathode is formed by depositing aluminum and silver to a thickness of 220 Å at a weight ratio of 10:1 on the electron injection layer, followed by the deposition of aluminum to a thickness of 1000 Å.

[0663] In the above process, the deposition rate of the organic material was maintained between 0.4 Å / s and 0.9 Å / s, the deposition rate of aluminum at the cathode was maintained at 2 Å / s, and the vacuum level during deposition was maintained at 1 × 10⁻⁶. -7 Up to 5×10 -8 To prepare organic light-emitting devices.

[0665] Examples 2-2 to 2-14, 2-19, 2-22 and 2-23

[0666] The organic light-emitting devices of Examples 2-2 to 2-14 and 2-19 were manufactured using the same method as in Example 2-1, except that the host and dopant compounds described in Table 3 were used instead of the light-emitting layer material of Example 2-1.

[0667] Examples 2-15 to 2-18

[0668] The organic light-emitting devices of Examples 2-15 to 2-18 were manufactured using the same method as in Example 2-1, except that the host and dopant compounds described in Table 3 were used instead of the light-emitting layer material of Example 2-1, and specifically, B-1 and B-2 were co-deposited in a 1:1 weight ratio (wt%) as a second host to replace compound B-2.

[0669] Examples 2-20 to 2-21

[0670] The organic light-emitting devices of Examples 2-20 to 2-21 were manufactured using the same method as in Example 2-1, except that the host and dopant compounds described in Table 3 were used instead of the light-emitting layer material of Example 2-1, and specifically, two types of compounds were co-deposited as the first host in a 1:1 weight ratio (wt%).

[0671] Comparative Examples 2-1 to 2-9

[0672] Organic light-emitting devices of Comparative Examples 2-1 to 2-9 were prepared using the same method as in Example 2-1, except that the host and dopant compounds described in Table 3 were used instead of the light-emitting layer material of Example 2-1.

[0673]

[0674]

[0675]

[0676] Table 3 shows the compounds used in the luminescent layer. At 10 mA / cm² 2 The operating voltage and conversion efficiency (cd / A / y) of the organic light-emitting device prepared from the compound were measured at a current density of 20 mA / cm². 2 The time taken to reach 95% of the initial brightness at the given current density is taken as a relative value (lifetime ratio) relative to Comparative Example 2-1.

[0677] Conversion efficiency (cd / A / y) takes into account the material’s current efficiency (cd / A) and color purity (CIEy), and is an important reference value for the efficiency of OLED devices that aim for high brightness and high color reproducibility.

[0678] [Table 3]

[0679]

[0680]

[0681] As can be seen from Table 3, in organic light-emitting devices comprising two light-emitting layers, at least one compound of Formula 1 is used as the host of the first light-emitting layer. It was determined that, compared to using only anthracene-based compounds as the blue host, an organic light-emitting device comprising a compound of Formula 1 according to an exemplary embodiment of this specification has higher luminous efficiency and lifetime.

[0682] Comparative Examples 2-4 and 2-5 revealed that anthracene-based compounds and The location of compounds has a significant impact on device performance. When a B-5 compound with a low triplet state energy is present in the region where holes and electrons are bound, the resulting triplet state cannot transfer energy to the higher-energy X-7 and accumulates in B-5, which adversely affects the device lifetime.

[0683] In addition, comparative examples 2-8 were identified. The device performance of the compound (in which carbazole other than that of formula 2 is present in formula 1) is inferior to that of the organic light-emitting device containing formula 1 of this specification.

[0684] Furthermore, as determined by Comparative Examples 2-4 and 2-9, deuterium substitution significantly increases lifetime, as shown in the results in Table 2 above.
