Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a compound useful as a luminescent material and a luminescent element using the same. Background Technology
[0002] Research is actively underway to improve the luminous efficiency of light-emitting elements such as organic electroluminescent devices (organic EL devices). Particular attention has been paid to enhancing luminous efficiency by developing and combining new electron transport materials, hole transport materials, and luminescent materials that constitute organic electroluminescent devices. Research related to organic electroluminescent devices utilizing delayed fluorescence materials is also being observed.
[0003] Delayed fluorescence materials are those that emit fluorescence upon returning to the ground state after a reverse intersystem crossing from an excited triplet state to an excited singlet state in the excited state. The fluorescence generated by this pathway is observed later than fluorescence from an excited singlet state directly generated from the ground state (normal fluorescence), hence the name delayed fluorescence. Here, for example, in the case of excitation of a luminescent compound via carrier injection, the generation probability of the excited singlet state is statistically 25% to 75%; therefore, there is a limit to the improvement in luminescence efficiency if only fluorescence from the directly generated excited singlet state is used. On the other hand, in delayed fluorescence materials, in addition to the excited singlet state, the excited triplet state can also be used for fluorescence emission via the aforementioned reverse intersystem crossing pathway, thus achieving higher luminescence efficiency compared to conventional fluorescent materials.
[0004] After this principle was clarified, various delayed fluorescence materials were discovered through various studies, and applications in organic light-emitting elements such as organic electroluminescent devices were proposed. Among these, compounds containing multiple benzene rings replaced by donor and acceptor groups were proposed. For example, a compound with a skeleton in which the benzene rings are replaced by carbazole-9-yl as the donor group and diphenyltriazine as the acceptor group was proposed (see Patent Document 1).

[0356] The electronic properties of a small molecule chemical library can be calculated using quantum chemical calculations based on well-known ab initio.

And, for example, when a LUMO energy (e.g., electron affinity) below -0.5 eV is present, the acceptor portion (“A”) can be selected. The bridging portion (“B”) is, for example, a strongly conjugated system that strictly restricts the acceptor and donor portions to unique three-dimensional structures, thereby preventing repetition between the π-conjugated systems of the donor and acceptor portions.

[0375] In one embodiment, a film containing the compound of the present invention can be formed by a dry process. In one embodiment, vacuum evaporation can be used as the dry process, but it is not limited to this. When using vacuum evaporation, the compound constituting the film can be co-deposited from a single evaporation source, or from a single evaporation source containing a mixture of compounds. When using a single evaporation source, a mixed powder obtained by mixing compound powders can be used, a compression molded body obtained by compressing the mixed powder can be used, or a mixture obtained by heating, melting, and cooling the individual compounds can be used. In one embodiment, by performing co-evaporation under conditions where the evaporation rates (weight reduction rates) of the multiple compounds contained in a single evaporation source are consistent or substantially consistent, a film with a composition ratio corresponding to the composition ratio of the multiple compounds contained in the evaporation source can be formed. If multiple compounds are mixed with the same composition ratio as the composition ratio of the formed film and used as the evaporation source, a film with the desired composition ratio can be easily formed.

[0529] The following describes the components of an organic electroluminescent element and its layers other than the light-emitting layer.

[0531] In some embodiments, the organic electroluminescent element of the present invention is supported by a substrate, wherein the substrate is not particularly limited and can be any of those substrates commonly used in organic electroluminescent elements, such as those formed of glass, transparent plastic, quartz and silicon.
[0532] anode:
[0533] In some embodiments, the anode of the organic electroluminescent device is made of a metal, alloy, conductive compound, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the metal, alloy, or conductive compound has a high work function (above 4 eV). In some embodiments, the metal is Au. In some embodiments, the conductive transparent material is selected from CuI, indium tin oxide (ITO), SnO2, and ZnO. In some embodiments, an amorphous material capable of forming a transparent conductive film, such as IDIXO (In2O3-ZnO), is used. In some embodiments, the anode is a thin film. In some embodiments, the thin film is fabricated by vapor deposition or sputtering. In some embodiments, the film is patterned by photolithography. In some embodiments, where high precision (e.g., above about 100 μm) may not be required for the pattern, the pattern can be formed using a mask of a preferred shape used when vapor deposition or sputtering on the electrode material. In some embodiments, wet film formation methods, such as printing and coating, are used when a coating material (such as an organic conductive compound) can be applied. In some embodiments, the anode has a transmittance greater than 10% when the emitted light passes through it, and the sheet resistance of the anode is less than several hundred ohms per square meter. In some embodiments, the thickness of the anode is 10–1,000 nm. In some embodiments, the thickness of the anode is 10–200 nm. In some embodiments, the thickness of the anode varies depending on the material used.

In some embodiments, the mixture is selected from magnesium-silver mixtures, magnesium-aluminum mixtures, magnesium-indium mixtures, aluminum-alumina (Al₂O₃) mixtures, lithium-aluminum mixtures, and aluminum. In some embodiments, the mixture enhances electron-injection characteristics and resistance to oxidation. In some embodiments, the cathode is manufactured by forming the electrode material into a thin film using vapor deposition or sputtering. In some embodiments, the film resistivity of the cathode is below several hundred ohms per square meter. In some embodiments, the thickness of the cathode is in the range of 10 nm to 5 μm. In some embodiments, the thickness of the cathode is in the range of 50 to 200 nm. In some embodiments, either the anode or the cathode of the organic electroluminescent element is transparent or translucent in order to transmit the emitted light. In some embodiments, transparent or translucent electroluminescent elements enhance the luminous brightness.
[0536] In some embodiments, the cathode is formed using a conductive transparent material as described for the anode to form a transparent or translucent cathode. In some embodiments, the element comprises both a transparent or translucent anode and cathode.
[0537] Injection layer:
[0538] The injection layer is a layer located between the electrode and the organic layer. In some embodiments, the injection layer reduces the driving voltage and enhances the luminous intensity.

[0556]
[0557] [Chemical Formula 60-2]
[0558]
[0559] Exciton blocking layer:
[0560] An exciton blocking layer suppresses the diffusion of excitons generated via the rebonding of holes and electrons in the light-emitting layer into the electron transport layer. In some embodiments, the exciton blocking layer enables effective confinement of excitons within the light-emitting layer. In some embodiments, it enhances the luminous efficiency of the device. In some embodiments, the exciton blocking layer is adjacent to the light-emitting layer on either the anode side or the cathode side, or on both sides. In some embodiments, when the exciton blocking layer is on the anode side, it may be located between and adjacent to the hole transport layer and the light-emitting layer. In some embodiments, when the exciton blocking layer is on the cathode side, it may be located between and adjacent to the light-emitting layer and the cathode.

[0564] [Chemical Formula 61]
[0565]

[0573]
[0574] Preferred materials that can be used in organic electroluminescent devices are specifically illustrated, but the materials that can be used in this invention are not limited to the following exemplary compounds. Furthermore, even compounds illustrated as materials with specific functions can be used as materials with other functions.
[0575] Device:
[0576] In some implementations, the light-emitting layer is incorporated into the device. For example, the device includes, but is not limited to, OLED bulbs, OLED lights, television screens, computer monitors, mobile phones, and tablet computers.
[0577] In some embodiments, the electronic device includes an OLED having an anode, a cathode, and at least one organic layer containing a light-emitting layer between the anode and the cathode.
[0578] In some embodiments, the compositions described herein can be incorporated into various photosensitive or photoactivated devices, such as OLEDs or optoelectronic devices. In some embodiments, the compositions can be used to facilitate charge or energy transfer within the device and / or be suitable as hole transport materials. Examples of such devices include, for instance, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic integrated circuits (OICs), organic field-effect transistors (O-FETs), organic thin-film transistors (O-TFTs), organic light-emitting transistors (O-LETs), organic solar cells (O-SCs), organic photodetectors, organic photosensors, organic field-quench devices (O-FQDs), light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs), or organic laser diodes (O-lasers).
[0579] Light bulb or lamp:
[0580] In some embodiments, the electronic device includes an OLED, which includes an anode, a cathode, and at least one organic layer containing a light-emitting layer located between the anode and the cathode.
[0581] In some embodiments, the device includes OLEDs of different colors. In some embodiments, the device includes an array comprising combinations of OLEDs. In some embodiments, the combination of OLEDs is a combination of three colors (e.g., RGB). In some embodiments, the combination of OLEDs is a combination of colors that are not red, green, or blue (e.g., orange and yellow-green). In some embodiments, the combination of OLEDs is a combination of two, four, or more colors.
[0582] In some embodiments, the device is an OLED lamp, the OLED lamp comprising:
[0583] The circuit board has a first surface with a mounting surface and a second surface opposite to it, and defines at least one opening.
[0584] At least one OLED is disposed on the mounting surface and has a structure in which the at least one OLED includes an anode, a cathode and at least one organic layer containing a light-emitting layer located between the anode and the cathode and emits light;
[0585] Housing, used for circuit board; and
[0586] At least one connector is disposed at an end of the housing, and the housing and the connector define an encapsulation suitable for mounting to a lighting device.
[0587] In some embodiments, the OLED lamp includes a plurality of OLEDs mounted on a circuit board to emit light in multiple directions. In some embodiments, a portion of the light emitted in a first direction is deflected to be emitted in a second direction. In some embodiments, a reflector is used to deflect the light emitted in the first direction.
[0588] Monitor or screen:
[0589] In some embodiments, the light-emitting layer of the present invention can be used in a screen or display. In some embodiments, methods including (but not limited to) vacuum evaporation, deposition, vapor deposition, or chemical vapor deposition (CVD) are used to deposit the compounds involved in the present invention onto a substrate. In some embodiments, the substrate is a photoplate structure suitable for double-sided etching, providing pixels with a unique aspect ratio. The screen (which may also be referred to as a mask) is used in methods for manufacturing OLED displays. The corresponding artwork pattern design promotes extremely steep and narrow tie-bars between pixels in the vertical direction and promotes large swept-bevel openings in the horizontal direction. This allows for tight patterning of pixels required for high-definition displays while optimizing chemical vapor deposition onto the TFT substrate.
[0590] Internal patterning of pixels allows for the construction of 3D pixel openings with varying aspect ratios in both the horizontal and vertical directions. Furthermore, imaging "strips" or halftone circles within the pixel region suppress etching in specific areas until these specific patterns are undercut and leave the substrate. At this point, all pixel regions are processed at the same etching rate, but the depth varies depending on the halftone pattern. Changing the size and spacing of the halftone patterns allows etching to be suppressed at different rates within the pixel, enabling locally deeper etching to form steep vertical bevels.
[0591] The preferred material for vapor deposition masks is Invar alloy. Invar alloy is a metal alloy that is cold-rolled into long thin sheets in a steel mill. Invar alloy cannot be used as a nickel mask for electrodeposition onto a spin mandrel. A suitable and low-cost method for forming opening regions within a vapor deposition mask is a wet chemical etching method.
[0592] In some embodiments, the screen or display pattern is a pixel matrix on a substrate. In some embodiments, the screen or display pattern is fabricated using lithography (e.g., photolithography and e-beam lithography). In some embodiments, the screen or display pattern is fabricated using wet chemical etching. In other embodiments, the screen or display pattern is fabricated using plasma etching.
[0593] Method for manufacturing the device:
[0594] OLED displays are typically manufactured by forming a large motherboard and then cutting the motherboard into unit panels. Generally, each unit panel on the motherboard is formed by: forming a thin-film transistor (TFT) including an active layer and source / drain electrodes on a substrate; applying a planarization film onto the TFT; and sequentially forming a pixel electrode, a light-emitting layer, a counter electrode, and an encapsulation layer, and then cutting it from the motherboard.
[0595] In another aspect of the invention, a method for manufacturing an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display is provided, the method comprising:
[0596] The process of forming a barrier layer on the substrate of the motherboard;
[0597] The process of forming multiple display units from unit board units on the barrier layer;
[0598] The process of forming an encapsulation layer on each of the display units of the unit board; and
[0599] The process of coating an organic film on the interface portion between the unit plates.
[0600] In some embodiments, the barrier layer is an inorganic film formed of, for example, SiNx, and the edge portions of the barrier layer are covered with an organic film formed of polyimide or acrylamide. In some embodiments, the organic film facilitates the gentle cutting of the motherboard into unit panels.
[0601] In some embodiments, the thin-film transistor (TFT) layer has a light-emitting layer, a gate electrode, and a source / drain electrode. Each of the plurality of display units may include a thin-film transistor (TFT), a planarization film formed on the TFT layer, and a light-emitting unit formed on the planarization film, wherein the organic film coated on the interface portion is formed of the same material as the planarization film and is formed simultaneously with the planarization film. In some embodiments, the light-emitting unit is connected to the TFT layer, with a passivation layer, a planarization film, and an encapsulation layer therebetween, and the encapsulation layer covers and protects the light-emitting unit. In some embodiments of the manufacturing method, the organic film neither contacts the display unit nor the encapsulation layer.
[0602] Each of the organic film and the planarization film may comprise either polyimide or acryloyl groups. In some embodiments, the barrier layer may be an inorganic film. In some embodiments, the substrate may be formed of polyimide. The method may further include mounting a carrier substrate formed of glass material onto another surface of the substrate before forming the barrier layer on one surface of the substrate formed of polyimide, and separating the carrier substrate from the substrate before cutting along the interface portion. In some embodiments, the OLED display is a flexible display.
[0603] In some embodiments, the passivation layer is an organic film disposed on the TFT layer to cover the TFT layer. In some embodiments, the planarization film is an organic film formed on the passivation layer. In some embodiments, the planarization film is formed of polyimide or acrylamide, as in the case of an organic film formed on the edge portion of the barrier layer. In some embodiments, the planarization film and the organic film are formed simultaneously during the manufacture of the OLED display. In some embodiments, the organic film may be formed on the edge portion of the barrier layer such that a portion of the organic film directly contacts the substrate, and the remaining portion of the organic film contacts the barrier layer while surrounding the edge portion of the barrier layer.
[0604] In some embodiments, the light-emitting layer has a pixel electrode, a counter electrode, and an organic light-emitting layer disposed between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode. In some embodiments, the pixel electrode is connected to the source / drain electrode of the TFT layer.
[0605] In some embodiments, when a voltage is applied to the pixel electrode via the TFT layer, an appropriate voltage is formed between the pixel electrode and the opposing electrode, thereby causing the organic light-emitting layer to emit light and thus forming an image. Hereinafter, the image forming unit having a TFT layer and light-emitting units will be referred to as a display unit.
[0606] In some embodiments, the encapsulation layer covering the display units and preventing external moisture penetration can be formed as a thin-film encapsulation structure having alternating layers of organic and inorganic films. In some embodiments, the encapsulation layer has a thin-film encapsulation structure having multiple layers of films. In some embodiments, the organic film coated on the interface portion is spaced apart from each of the plurality of display units. In some embodiments, the organic film is formed such that a portion of the organic film directly contacts the substrate, and the remaining portion of the organic film contacts the barrier layer while surrounding the edge portion of the barrier layer.
[0607] In one embodiment, the OLED display is flexible and uses a soft substrate formed of polyimide. In some embodiments, the substrate is formed on a carrier substrate formed of a glass material, and then the carrier substrate is separated.
[0608] In some embodiments, a barrier layer is formed on the surface of the substrate opposite to the carrier substrate. In one embodiment, the barrier layer is patterned according to the size of each unit plate. For example, while forming the substrate over the entire surface of the motherboard, the barrier layer is formed according to the size of each unit plate, thereby forming a groove at the interface portion between the unit plate barrier layers. Each unit plate can be cut along the groove.
[0609] In some embodiments, the manufacturing method further includes a step of cutting along the interface portion, wherein a groove is formed in the barrier layer, wherein at least a portion of an organic film is formed in the groove, and the groove does not penetrate into the substrate. In some embodiments, a TFT layer is formed for each unit panel, and a passivation layer (i.e., an inorganic film) and a planarization film (i.e., an organic film) are disposed on the TFT layer to cover the TFT layer. The groove at the interface portion is covered with an organic film, such as a polyimide or acrylamide, while a planarization film formed of, for example, polyimide or acrylamide is formed. This is to prevent cracking by allowing the organic film to absorb shocks generated when each unit panel is cut along the groove at the interface portion. That is, if the entire barrier layer is completely exposed without the organic film, the shock generated when each unit panel is cut along the groove at the interface portion is transferred to the barrier layer, thereby increasing the risk of cracking. However, in one embodiment, because the grooves at the interface portions between the barrier layers are covered with an organic film, and this organic film absorbs impacts that would otherwise be transferred to the barrier layers, each unit panel can be cut gently, and cracking in the barrier layers can be prevented. In one embodiment, the organic film covering the grooves at the interface portions is spaced apart from the planarization film. For example, if the organic film and the planarization film are connected as a single layer, then because external moisture may penetrate into the display unit through the planarization film and a portion of the residual organic film, the organic film and the planarization film are spaced apart from each other so that the organic film is separated from the display unit.
[0610] In some embodiments, a display unit is formed by forming light-emitting units, and an encapsulation layer is disposed on the display unit to cover it. Thus, after the motherboard is fully manufactured, a carrier substrate supporting the substrate is separated from the substrate. In some embodiments, when a laser beam is emitted toward the carrier substrate, the carrier substrate separates from the substrate due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficients between the carrier substrate and the substrate.
[0611] In some embodiments, the motherboard is cut into unit panels. In some embodiments, the motherboard is cut along the interface portion between the unit panels using a cutting machine. In some embodiments, because the grooves at the interface portion along which the motherboard is cut are covered with an organic film, the organic film absorbs impact during cutting. In some embodiments, cracking in the barrier layer can be prevented during cutting.
[0612] In some implementations, the method reduces the defect rate of the product and stabilizes its quality.
[0613] Another approach is an OLED display having: a barrier layer formed on a substrate; a display unit formed on the barrier layer; an encapsulation layer formed on the display unit; and an organic film coated on the edge portion of the barrier layer.
