AI Technical Summary
In existing OLED devices, the electron mobility of the electron transport layer material is lower than that of the hole mobility, which leads to the shift of the exciton recombination region, reduces luminous efficiency and accelerates device aging. Existing hole blocking materials have poor energy level matching and have failed to effectively reduce the injection barrier and block hole diffusion.
Fluorene compounds are used as electron transport and hole blocking materials. By optimizing the energy level arrangement, the electron mobility is improved, the energy level barrier is reduced, electron injection into the light-emitting layer is promoted, hole diffusion is blocked, and exciton recombination is restricted in the light-emitting layer.
It improves the luminous efficiency and lifespan of OLED devices, balances the transport efficiency of holes and electrons, and enhances the luminous performance and stability of the devices.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of organic electroluminescence technology, specifically to a fluorene compound and its organic electroluminescent device. Background Technology
[0002] Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), as a next-generation display and lighting technology, possess advantages such as self-illumination, high contrast, wide viewing angle, low power consumption, and flexibility. They have been widely applied in smartphones, televisions, wearable devices, and other fields, becoming one of the core development directions of the display industry. A typical OLED device structure includes an anode, a cathode, and various organic functional layers disposed between the anode and cathode, such as a hole injection layer (HIL), a hole transport layer (HTL), an emissive layer (EML), a hole blocking layer (HBL), an electron transport layer (ETL), and an electron injection layer (EIL). The synergistic effect of these functional layers enables efficient carrier injection, transport, and recombination, directly determining the device's luminous efficiency, lifetime, and stability.
[0003] In OLED device structures, the core function of the electron transport layer material is to efficiently transport electrons to the emissive layer. Its electron mobility, energy level matching, and chemical stability significantly impact device performance. Currently, these materials generally suffer from lower electron mobility than hole mobility, causing the exciton recombination region to shift towards the electron transport layer. When holes penetrate the emissive layer into the electron transport layer, it reduces the device's luminous efficiency, accelerates device aging, and shortens its lifespan. To balance electron and hole transport rates and improve OLED device performance, a hole blocking layer is typically added between the electron transport layer and the emissive layer. This layer optimizes energy level alignment, lowers the electron injection barrier, promotes efficient electron entry into the emissive layer, and effectively blocks further hole diffusion, thus confining the carrier recombination region within the emissive layer. This helps improve exciton utilization efficiency, thereby enhancing the device's luminous performance and lifespan. However, existing hole blocking materials still suffer from poor energy level matching with the emissive layer, failure to effectively lower the injection barrier, and limited hole blocking capabilities, adversely affecting device efficiency and lifespan.
[0004] As OLED technology advances towards higher resolution, higher brightness, longer lifespan, and greater flexibility, the development of existing electron transport layer materials and hole blocking layer materials has become a key factor restricting device upgrades. Therefore, developing electron transport layer materials and hole blocking layer materials with high electron mobility, good hole blocking capability, excellent stability, and good energy level matching has become an important research direction in the current OLED field.
