Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure relates to an organic electroluminescent device and an organic electroluminescent compound. Background Technology
[0002] Electroluminescent devices (EL devices) are self-emissive display devices that offer advantages such as a wider viewing angle, a higher contrast ratio, and a faster response time. The first organic EL device was developed by Eastman Kodak in 1987 using a low molecular weight aromatic diamine and an aluminum complex as the material for forming the luminescent layer (see Appl. Phys. Lett. 51, 913, 1987).
[0003] Organic electroluminescent devices are constructed with multilayer structures to enhance their efficiency and stability. These multilayer structures include hole injection layers, hole transport layers, light-emitting layers, electron transport layers, and electron injection layers. In this paper, the selection of compounds contained in the hole transport layers is considered as one of the means to improve device characteristics such as hole transport efficiency to the light-emitting layer, current efficiency, and lifetime characteristics.
[0004] Various materials or concepts for hole transport layers in organic electroluminescent devices have been proposed to improve luminous efficiency, driving voltage, and / or lifetime. However, these have not been satisfactory in practical applications. Therefore, there is an ongoing need to develop organic electroluminescent devices with significantly improved performance compared to previously disclosed organic electroluminescent devices, such as improved driving voltage, luminous efficiency, current efficiency, and / or lifetime characteristics.
[0005] Meanwhile, Korean Patent Application Publication Nos. 10-2024-0052660 and 10-2023-0174704 disclose organic electroluminescent devices comprising a host compound represented by benzo[a]phenanthrenefuran or benzo[a]phenanthrenethiophene, a host compound represented by triazine, and a host compound represented by phenanthroxazole or phenanthrenethiazole. However, as described herein, no organic electroluminescent device is disclosed that exhibits improved performance due to a specific combination of hole transport region compounds as described in this invention and various host materials.

[0201]
[0202]
[0203]
[0204]
[0205]
[0206]
[0207] The organic electroluminescent device according to this disclosure has an anode; a cathode; and at least one organic layer inserted between the anode and the cathode. The organic layer includes a light-emitting layer and may further include at least one layer selected from: a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a hole auxiliary layer, a light-emitting auxiliary layer, an electron transport layer, an electron buffer layer, an electron injection layer, an intermediate layer, a hole blocking layer, and an electron blocking layer. Each of these layers may additionally consist of multiple layers.
[0208] The anode and cathode can each be formed from transparent, semi-transparent, or reflective conductive materials. Depending on the types of materials used to form the anode and cathode, the organic electroluminescent device can be a top-emitting, bottom-emitting, or dual-sided emitting type. Furthermore, the hole injection layer can be further doped with p-type dopant, and the electron injection layer can be additionally doped with n-type dopant.
[0209] The organic layer may further comprise at least one compound selected from the group consisting of arylamine-based compounds and styrylarylamine-based compounds. Furthermore, the organic layer may further comprise at least one metal selected from the group consisting of: metals of Group 1, Group 2, transition metals of Period 4, transition metals of Period 5, lanthanides, and organometallic compounds of d-transition elements, or at least one complex compound comprising such metal.
[0210] In addition to the compounds disclosed herein, the organic electroluminescent device of this disclosure may emit white light by further including one or more light-emitting layers containing compounds known in the art that emit blue, red, or green light. Additionally, if desired, a layer emitting yellow or orange light may be further included.
[0211] In the organic electroluminescent device disclosed herein, preferably, at least one layer selected from chalcogenide layers, metal halide layers, and metal oxide layers (hereinafter, "surface layer") can be placed on at least one of one or more inner surfaces of a pair of electrodes. Specifically, it is preferred to place silicon and aluminum chalcogenide (including oxide) layers on the anode surface on the light-emitting medium layer side, and it is also preferred to place the metal halide layer or metal oxide layer on the cathode surface on the light-emitting medium layer side. The operational stability of the organic electroluminescent device can be obtained through the surface layer. Preferably, the chalcogenide includes SiO2. X (1 ≤ X ≤ 2), AlO X (1 ≤ X ≤ 1.5), SiON, SiAlON, etc.; metal halides include LiF, MgF2, CaF2, rare earth metal fluorides, etc.; and metal oxides include Cs2O, Li2O, MgO, SrO, BaO, CaO, etc.
[0212] A hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, or a combination thereof can be used between the anode and the light-emitting layer. Multiple hole injection layers can be used to reduce the hole injection barrier (or hole injection voltage) from the anode to the hole transport layer or electron blocking layer, wherein each of these layers can use two compounds simultaneously. Furthermore, multiple hole transport layers or electron blocking layers can be used.
[0213] An electron buffer layer, a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, or a combination thereof can be used between the light-emitting layer and the cathode. Multiple electron buffer layers can be used to control electron injection and improve the interface properties between the light-emitting layer and the electron injection layer, where each of these layers can simultaneously utilize two compounds. Furthermore, multiple hole blocking or electron transport layers can be used, where each layer can utilize multiple compounds.
[0214] A light-emitting auxiliary layer can be placed between the anode and the light-emitting layer, or between the cathode and the light-emitting layer. When placed between the anode and the light-emitting layer, it can promote hole injection and / or hole transport, or prevent electron leakage. When placed between the cathode and the light-emitting layer, it can promote electron injection and / or electron transport, or prevent hole leakage. Furthermore, placing a hole auxiliary layer between the hole transport layer (or hole injection layer) and the light-emitting layer can effectively promote or limit the hole transport rate (or hole injection rate), thereby enabling charge balance control. Additionally, placing an electron blocking layer between the hole transport layer (or hole injection layer) and the light-emitting layer can confine excitons within the light-emitting layer by blocking electron leakage from the light-emitting layer, preventing light leakage. When the organic electroluminescent device includes two or more hole transport layers, the further included layer can serve as a hole auxiliary layer or an electron blocking layer. The light-emitting auxiliary layer, hole auxiliary layer, or electron blocking layer improves the efficiency and / or lifetime of the organic electroluminescent device.
[0215] Furthermore, in the organic electroluminescent device of this disclosure, a mixed region of electron transport compound and reducing dopant, or a mixed region of hole transport compound and oxidizing dopant, can be placed on at least one surface of a pair of electrodes. In this case, the electron transport compound is reduced to anion, and thus it becomes easier to inject and transport electrons from the mixed region into the light-emitting medium. Furthermore, the hole transport compound is oxidized to cation, and thus it becomes easier to inject and transport holes from the mixed region into the light-emitting medium. Preferably, the oxidizing dopant includes various Lewis acids and acceptor compounds, and the reducing dopant includes alkali metals, alkali metal compounds, alkaline earth metals, rare earth metals, and mixtures thereof. Additionally, the reducing dopant layer can be used as a charge-generating layer to fabricate an organic electroluminescent device having two or more light-emitting layers and emitting white light.
[0216] An organic electroluminescent device according to an embodiment of this disclosure may be an organic electroluminescent device having a series structure. In the case of a series organic electroluminescent device according to an embodiment, a single light-emitting unit (light-emitting component) may be formed in a structure in which two or more units are connected by a charge-generating layer. The organic electroluminescent device may include a plurality of two or more light-emitting units, for example, a plurality of three or more light-emitting units, each light-emitting unit having a first electrode and a second electrode opposite to each other on a substrate and a light-emitting layer stacked between the first electrode and the second electrode to emit light within a specific wavelength range. The organic electroluminescent device may include a plurality of light-emitting units, and each of these light-emitting units may include a hole transport band, a light-emitting layer, and an electron transport band, and the hole transport band may include a hole injection layer and a hole transport layer, and the electron transport band may include an electron transport layer and an electron injection layer. According to one embodiment, a light-emitting unit may include three or more light-emitting layers. The plurality of light-emitting units may emit the same color or different colors. Furthermore, a light-emitting unit may include one or more light-emitting layers, and the plurality of light-emitting layers may be light-emitting layers of the same color or different colors. It may include one or more charge-generating layers placed between each light-emitting unit. A charge generation layer is a layer that generates holes and electrons when a voltage is applied. When there are three or more light-emitting units, the charge generation layer can be placed between each light-emitting unit. Here, the multiple charge generation layers can be the same or different from each other. By placing the charge generation layer between the light-emitting units, the current efficiency in each light-emitting unit is increased, and the charge can be distributed uniformly. Specifically, the charge generation layer is disposed between two adjacent stacks and can be used to drive a series organic electroluminescent device using only a pair of anodes and cathodes, without the need for separate internal electrodes placed between the stacks.
[0217] The charge-generating layer can consist of an N-type charge-generating layer and a P-type charge-generating layer, and the N-type charge-generating layer can be doped with an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, or a compound of an alkali metal and an alkaline earth metal. Alkali metals can include one selected from the group consisting of Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, Fr, Yb, and combinations thereof, and alkaline earth metals can include one selected from the group consisting of Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Ra, and combinations thereof. The P-type charge-generating layer can be composed of a metal or an organic material doped with a P-type dopant. For example, the metal can be composed of one or more alloys selected from the group consisting of Al, Cu, Fe, Pb, Zn, Au, Pt, W, In, Mo, Ni, and Ti. Furthermore, commonly used materials can be used as both the P-type dopant and the host material in P-type doped organic materials.
[0218] According to one embodiment of this disclosure, organic electroluminescent materials can be used as luminescent materials for white organic light-emitting devices. Various structures of white organic light-emitting devices have been proposed, such as side-by-side structures, stacked structures, depending on the arrangement of R (red), G (green) or YG (yellow-green), B (blue) luminescent units, or color conversion material (CCM) methods, etc. Furthermore, according to one embodiment of this disclosure, organic electroluminescent materials can also be used in organic electroluminescent devices incorporating QDs (quantum dots).
[0219] To form each layer of the organic electroluminescent device of this disclosure, dry film deposition methods such as vacuum evaporation, sputtering, plasma, and ion plating, or wet film deposition methods such as inkjet printing, nozzle printing, slot coating, spin coating, dip coating, and flow coating can be used. When the first and second host compounds of this disclosure are used to form films, the method is performed by co-deposition or co-deposition.
[0220] When using a wet film-forming method, a thin film can be formed by dissolving or diffusing the material forming each layer into any suitable solvent such as ethanol, chloroform, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, etc. The solvent can be any solvent in which the material forming each layer can dissolve or diffuse and in which there are no issues with film-forming ability.
[0221] Furthermore, display devices such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, PCs, TVs, or vehicle displays, or lighting devices such as outdoor or indoor lighting, can be produced using the organic electroluminescent devices disclosed herein.
