Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of organic electroluminescence preparation, and particularly relates to a tetradentate cyclometalated platinum (II) complex guest phosphorescent material with a spirobifluorene structure, an electronic device, an apparatus and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) is a new generation of full-color display and lighting technology. Compared with liquid crystal display, OLED has the advantages of slow response speed, small viewing angle, need for backlight source, high energy consumption, etc. As a kind of self-luminous device, OLED does not need a backlight source and is energy-saving; and it has low driving voltage, fast response speed, high resolution and contrast, wide viewing angle, and excellent low-temperature performance; the device can be made thinner and flexible. In addition, OLED has the advantages of low production cost, simple production process, and large-area production. Therefore, OLED has a wide and huge application prospect in high-end electronic products and aerospace; with the gradual increase of investment, further research and development, and upgrading of production equipment, OLED has a very wide application scenario and development prospect in the future.

[0003] The core of OLED development is the design and development of light-emitting materials. In early OLED devices, the light-emitting material was mainly organic small molecule fluorescent material. However, spin statistics quantum mechanics shows that in the case of electroluminescence, the singlet exciton and triplet exciton are 25% and 75%, respectively, and because traditional fluorescent materials can only utilize singlet excitons, the maximum theoretical internal quantum efficiency is only 25%, and the remaining 75% of triplet excitons are lost through non-radiative transition. In 1998, Professor Forrest of Princeton University and Professor Thompson of the University of Southern California discovered the phenomenon of phosphorescent electroluminescence of heavy metal organic complex molecules at room temperature. Due to the strong spin-orbital coupling of heavy metal atoms, excitons can more easily undergo intersystem crossing (ISC) from singlet to triplet, so that OLED devices can fully utilize all singlet and triplet excitons generated by electrical excitation, and the theoretical internal quantum efficiency of light-emitting materials can reach 100%.

[0004] In the OLED devices currently applied, the light-emitting layer almost all uses a host-guest light-emitting system mechanism, that is, a guest light-emitting material is doped in a host material, the energy system of the host material is generally greater than that of the guest light-emitting material, the energy is transferred from the host material to the guest material, so that the guest material is excited to emit light. Common organic phosphorescent guest materials are generally heavy metal atoms such as iridium (III), platinum (II), Pd (II) and the like. The preparation cost of the platinum (II) complex phosphorescent material is much lower than that of the iridium (III) complex phosphorescent material, and has a very high cost advantage. However, there are still some technical difficulties in the development of platinum complex materials and devices at present, such as how to improve the chemical stability and thermal stability of the material, avoid red shift or light-emitting quenching caused by molecular aggregation, and further improve the device operation life and color purity and the like. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a new type of phosphorescent metal platinum (II) complex. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application aims to provide a tetradentate ring metal platinum (II) complex guest phosphorescent material with a spirobifluorene structure, an electronic device, an apparatus and application thereof. The present application introduces a 1' substituted 9,9'-spirobifluorene structure on the nitrogen atom of the carbazole to make the molecule have a rigid three-dimensional (3D) structure, the spirofluorene and the benzocarbazole form intramolecular charge interaction, stabilize the molecular structure, further inhibit the structural deformation between the ground state and the excited state, reduce the shoulder peak and narrow the spectrum, and improve the color purity of the material. The organic electroluminescent device prepared by using the compound of the present application as the light-emitting layer has obvious improvement in current efficiency and color purity, and has great application prospect in the field of OLED display and lighting.

[0027] Preferably, the organic functional layer further comprises a fluorescent dopant material; the fluorescent dopant material is preferably a boron-containing organic luminescent material, and more preferably a boron-containing compound.

[0028] In many embodiments, the present invention also provides an organic optoelectronic device comprising: a substrate layer; a first electrode on the substrate; an organic light-emitting functional layer on the first electrode; and a second electrode on the organic light-emitting functional layer; wherein the organic light-emitting functional layer comprises a tetradentate cyclic platinum(II) complex having the structure shown in formula (I) above.

[0029] Furthermore, the organic light-emitting functional layer also contains any one or more fluorescent doping materials, wherein the fluorescent doping material is preferably a boron-containing organic luminescent material, and more preferably a phosphorescently sensitizable boron-containing compound.

[0030] In this invention, organic optoelectronic devices can be fabricated by depositing metals or conductive oxides and their alloys onto a substrate using methods such as sputtering, electron beam evaporation, and vacuum deposition to form the anode. A hole injection layer, hole transport layer, light-emitting layer, air-blocking layer, and electron transport layer are then sequentially deposited onto the surface of the anode, followed by the deposition of the cathode.

[0037] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0038] By introducing a spirofluorene structure onto a benzo[a]-a]-carbene, a novel phosphorescent molecule with a rigid three-dimensional structure was successfully constructed. The spirofluorene forms an intramolecular π-π interaction with the benzo[a]-a]-carbene, stabilizing the molecular structure and further enhancing molecular rigidity, thereby suppressing the resulting emission spectral broadening. This enhanced molecular rigidity also reduces structural deformation between the ground and excited states, further lowering the shoulder peak and improving the emission color purity of the material. Furthermore, using a phosphorus-sensitized boron-containing compound system can further improve the emission color purity of the device. Attached Figure Description

[0040] Figure 2 The quantum efficiency and excited-state lifetime of the cyclic platinum(II) complex Pt1 in PMMA are presented in this invention. Detailed Implementation

[0041] As used in this invention, the terms "optional" or "optionally" mean that the event or situation described below may or may not occur, and the description includes both the case where the event or situation occurs and the case where it does not occur.

[0042] The term "substituted" as used in this invention is intended to encompass all permissible substituents of organic compounds. In a broad sense, permissible substituents include acyclic and cyclic, branched and unbranched, carbocyclic and heterocyclic, and aromatic and non-aromatic substituents of organic compounds. Illustrative substituents include, for example, those described below. For a suitable organic compound, permissible substituents may be one or more, the same or different. For the purposes of this invention, heteroatoms (e.g., nitrogen) can have hydrogen substituents and / or any permissible substituent of the organic compound described herein, satisfying the valence bond of that heteroatom. This disclosure is not intended to limit in any way to permissible substituents of organic compounds. Similarly, the terms "substituted" or "substituted with" imply that such substitution conforms to the permissible valence bond of the substituted atom and the substituent, and that the substitution results in a stable compound (e.g., a compound that does not spontaneously undergo transformations (e.g., by rearrangement, cyclization, elimination, etc.)). It is also expected that, in some respects, unless explicitly stated otherwise, individual substituents can be further optionally substituted (i.e., further substituted or unsubstituted).

[0043] When defining various terms, R a -R i In this invention, the general symbols are used to denote various specific substituents. These symbols can be any substituent, not limited to those disclosed in this invention, and while they may be defined as certain substituents in one case, they may be defined as other substituents in other cases.

[0044] As used in this invention, the term "alkyl" refers to a branched or unbranched saturated hydrocarbon group with 1 to 30 carbon atoms. Preferred alkyl groups are alkyl groups containing 1 to 24 carbon atoms, more preferably 1 to 9 carbon atoms. Examples include methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, n-pentyl, isopentyl, sec-pentyl, neopentyl, hexyl, heptyl, semi-alkyl, nonyl, decyl, dodecyl, tetradecyl, hexadecyl, eicosyl, tetracosyl, etc. The alkyl group may be cyclic or acyclic. It may be branched or unbranched. It may also be substituted or unsubstituted. For example, the alkyl group may be substituted with one or more groups, including but not limited to the optionally substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkoxy, amino, halogen, hydroxyl, nitro, silyl, sulfoxo, or mercapto groups described in this invention.

[0045] Throughout this specification, "alkyl" is generally used to refer to both unsubstituted and substituted alkyl groups; however, substituted alkyl groups are also specifically referred to in this invention by identifying the specific substituents on the alkyl group. For example, the terms "halogenated alkyl" or "halogenated alkyl" specifically refer to an alkyl group substituted with one or more halogens (e.g., fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine). The term "deuterated alkyl" specifically refers to an alkyl group substituted with one or more deuterium atoms. The alkyl term "alkoxyalkyl" specifically refers to an alkyl group substituted with one or more alkoxy groups, as described below. The term "alkylamino" specifically refers to an alkyl group substituted with one or more amino groups, as described below, etc. When "alkyl" is used in one context and a specific term such as "alkyl alcohol" is used in another context, it does not imply that the term "alkyl" does not simultaneously refer to the specific term such as "alkyl alcohol," etc.

[0046] This practice is also applied to other groups described in this invention. That is, when a term such as "cycloalkyl" refers to both an unsubstituted and a substituted cycloalkyl portion, the substituted portion may be specifically identified separately in this invention; for example, a specifically substituted cycloalkyl may be referred to as, for example, "alkylcycloalkyl". Similarly, a substituted alkoxy may be specifically referred to as, for example, "halogenated alkoxy", and a specifically substituted alkenyl may be, for example, "enol", etc. Likewise, the practice of using the general term such as "cycloalkyl" and the specific term such as "alkylcycloalkyl" is not intended to imply that the general term does not simultaneously include the specific term.

[0047] As used in this invention, the term "cycloalkyl" refers to a non-aromatic carbon-based ring consisting of at least three carbon atoms. Examples of cycloalkyl groups include, but are not limited to, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cyclononyl, adamantyl, etc. The term "heterocyclic alkyl" is a class of cycloalkyl groups as defined above and is included in the meaning of the term "cycloalkyl," wherein at least one ring carbon atom is substituted by a heteroatom, such as, but not limited to, nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, or phosphorus. The cycloalkyl and heterocyclic alkyl groups may be substituted or unsubstituted. The cycloalkyl and heterocyclic alkyl groups may be substituted with one or more groups, including but not limited to alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkoxy, amino, halogen, hydroxyl, nitro, silyl, sulfo-oxo, or mercapto groups as described in this invention.

[0048] As used in this invention, the term "aryl" refers to any carbon-based aromatic group containing 6 to 60 carbon atoms, preferably aryl groups containing 6 to 30 carbon atoms, more preferably 6 to 18 carbon atoms. The carbon-based aromatic groups include, but are not limited to, phenyl, naphthyl, phenyl, biphenyl, phenoxyphenyl, anthracene, phenanthrene, etc. The term "aryl" also includes "heteroaryl," which is defined as a group containing an aromatic group having at least one heteroatom introduced into the ring of the aromatic group. Examples of heteroatoms include, but are not limited to, nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, and phosphorus. Aryl groups may be substituted or unsubstituted. Aryl groups may be substituted with one or more groups, including, but not limited to, the alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkoxy, alkenyl, cycloalkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkynyl, aryl, heteroaryl, aldehyde, amino, carboxyl, ester, halogen, hydroxyl, carbonyl, azide, nitro, silyl, sulfo-oxo, or mercapto groups described in this invention. The term "biaryl" refers to a specific type of aryl group and is included in the definition of "aryl". A biaryl group is two aryl groups that are bonded together by a fused ring structure, as in naphthalene, or two aryl groups that are linked by one or more carbon-carbon bonds, as in biphenyl.

[0169] Fabrication of OLED devices:

[0170] An OLED device is fabricated by depositing p-doped material onto the surface or anode of an ITO glass with a light-emitting area of ​​2.5 mm × 2.5 mm, or by co-evaporating p-doped material with hole injection material at a concentration of 1% to 50% to form a 5-100 nm hole injection layer (HIL) and a 5-200 nm hole transport layer (HTL). Subsequently, a 10-100 nm light-emitting layer (EML) (which may contain the compound described in this invention) is formed on the hole transport layer, followed by a 20-200 nm electron transport layer (ETL) and a 50-200 nm cathode. If necessary, an electron blocking layer (EBL) is added between the HTL and EML layers, and an electron injection layer (EIL) is added between the ETL and the cathode. The OLED is then tested using standard methods. Unless otherwise specified, the device materials involved in this invention can be obtained using known synthesis methods.

The device structural formulas involved are as follows: where P-4 is HATCN and ET-14 is BPyTP.

[0178] As shown in Table 1, compared with Comparative Example 1, Device Examples 1-29 prepared in this application exhibit excellent device performance in terms of driving voltage and current efficiency.

Furthermore, all devices prepared in this invention are deep blue light devices.
