Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2025-0017478, filed with the Korean Patent Office on February 11, 2025, the entire contents of which are contained in this specification.

[0002] This specification relates to compounds and organic light-emitting devices containing them. Background Technology

[0003] In this specification, organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) are light-emitting devices that utilize organic semiconductor materials and require the exchange of holes and / or electrons between electrodes and the organic semiconductor material. Based on their working principles, OLEDs can be broadly classified into two types. The first type utilizes photons flowing into the device from an external light source to form excitons in the organic layer. These excitons separate into electrons and holes, which are then transferred to different electrodes, serving as a current source (voltage source). The second type involves applying voltage or current to two or more electrodes, thereby injecting holes and / or electrons into the organic semiconductor layer that forms the interface with the electrodes. The OLED operates through the injected electrons and holes.

[0004] Organic light emission (OLED) typically refers to the phenomenon of converting electrical energy into light energy using organic materials. OLED devices generally have a structure comprising an anode and a cathode, with an organic layer between them. To improve the efficiency and stability of OLEDs, the organic layer is often formed by a multi-layered structure composed of different materials, such as a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a light-emitting layer, an electron suppression layer, an electron transport layer, and an electron injection layer. In such an OLED structure, if a voltage is applied between the two electrodes, holes are injected into the organic layer from the anode, and electrons are injected into the organic layer from the cathode. When the injected holes and electrons meet, excitons are formed. When these excitons re-enter the ground state, they emit light. Such OLEDs are known to possess characteristics such as self-emission, high brightness, high efficiency, low driving voltage, wide viewing angle, and high contrast.

[0005] In order to fully utilize the excellent characteristics of the organic light-emitting devices mentioned above, the materials constituting the organic layer inside the device, such as hole injection materials, hole transport materials, electron blocking materials, light-emitting materials, hole blocking materials, electron transport materials, and electron injection materials, need to be backed by stable and effective materials. Therefore, there is a continuous need to develop new materials. Summary of the Invention

[0039] The following is a more detailed description of this instruction manual.

[0040] In this specification, when a part is indicated to "include / comprise" a certain element, unless otherwise stated, it means that other elements may be included, rather than excluding other elements.

[0041] In this specification, when it is stated that a component is "on" another component, it includes not only the case where one component is connected to another component, but also the case where there are other components between the two components.

[0042] In this specification, "adjacent" groups can refer to substituents that are substituted on an atom directly bonded to the atom substituted by the substituent, substituents that are stereomorphically closest to the substituent, or other substituents that are substituted on the atom substituted by the substituent. For example, two substituents substituted at the ortho position in a benzene ring and two substituents substituted on the same carbon atom in an aliphatic ring can be interpreted as "adjacent" groups.

[0043] In this specification, "containing deuterium," "deuterated," or "deuterated" means that hydrogen at a substituted position in a compound is replaced by deuterium. In this specification, "overdeuterated" means a compound or group in which all hydrogen atoms in the molecule are replaced by deuterium, and has the same meaning as "100% deuterated."

[0044] In this specification, "X% deuterated", "degree of deuteration X%", or "deuteration substitution rate X%" means that X% of the hydrogen atoms at substituted positions in the structure are replaced by deuterium. The "deuteration substitution rate (%)" of a compound or group can be expressed as (number of deuterium atoms) / (number of deuterium atoms + number of hydrogen atoms). 100 (%). For example, when the structure is dibenzofuranyl, "25% deuterated" of the above dibenzofuranyl, "degree of deuteration 25%" of the above dibenzofuranyl, or "deuteration rate 25%" of the above dibenzofuranyl means that 2 out of the 8 hydrogens at the substituted positions of the above dibenzofuranyl are substituted with deuterium.

[0045] In this specification, "degree of deuteration" or "deuteration substitution rate" can be determined by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR spectroscopy). 1 The assay was confirmed using known methods such as ¹H NMR, TLC / MS (Thin-Layer Chromatography / Mass Spectrometry), or GC / MS (Gas Chromatography / Mass Spectrometry).

[0046] Specifically, through nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR spectroscopy) 1 When analyzing "degree of deuteration" or "deuteration substitution rate" using ¹H NMR, DMF (dimethylformamide) can be added as an internal standard. 1 The integration ratio on H NMR is used to calculate the degree of deuteration or the rate of deuteration substitution from the total peak integration.

[0047] In addition, when analyzing “degree of deuteration” or “deuteration rate” by TLC / MS (thin-layer chromatography / mass spectrometry), the substitution rate can be calculated based on the maximum value (intermediate value) of the distribution of molecular weight at the end of the reaction.

[0287]

[0288]

[0289]

[0292] According to one embodiment of this specification, the compound represented by chemical formula 1 can be manufactured with a core structure as described in the manufacturing examples below.

[0293] In this specification, compounds with various band gaps can be synthesized by introducing various substituents into the core structure of the compound represented by the above-described chemical formula 1. Furthermore, in this specification, the HOMO and LUMO energy levels of the compound can also be tuned by introducing various substituents into the core structure as described above.

[0294] In addition, one embodiment of this specification provides an organic light-emitting device comprising the above-described compound.

[0295] The following section explains organic light-emitting devices.

[0296] In this invention, the term "layer" is used interchangeably with "film" primarily used in this technical field, referring to a coating covering the target area. The size of the "layer" is not limited; each "layer" can be the same or different in size. According to one embodiment, the size of a "layer" can be equal to the entire device, equivalent to the size of a specific functional area, or as small as a single sub-pixel.

[0297] In this specification, the meaning of a specific substance A being contained in layer B includes i) the case where one or more substances A are contained in a single layer of layer B, and ii) the case where layer B consists of one or more layers and substances A are contained in one or more layers of multiple layers of layer B.

[0298] In this specification, the meaning of a specific substance A being contained in layer C or layer D includes i) being contained in layer C or more than one layer, or ii) being contained in layer D or more than one layer, or iii) being contained in layer C or more than one layer and layer D or more than one layer respectively.

[0299] In this specification, n-type refers to a substance that can remove electrons from the matrix material (the material of the organic layer), and may use generally known substances, but is not limited to them. That is, n-type can be defined as a substance that has the property of being able to donate electrons to the LUMO (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital) energy level of the matrix. Conversely, p-type is a substance that, when a layer is formed using only p-type material, accepts electrons from the HOMO (highest occupied molecular orbital) energy level of the material located in the adjacent cathode direction, thereby generating holes in the adjacent cathode direction material; or, when p-type material is doped into any matrix, accepts electrons from the HOMO of the matrix material, thereby generating an equal amount of holes in the HOMO of the matrix. Therefore, when a layer is formed using only p-type material, the closer the HOMO of the material located in the cathode direction is to the LUMO of the p-type material, the easier it is to steal electrons from the HOMO of the adjacent layer, thereby generating holes in the HOMO of the adjacent layer. Furthermore, when p-type material is doped into any matrix, the closer the LUMO of the p-type material is to the HOMO of the matrix, the easier it is to steal electrons and generate holes in the matrix.

Then, one or more organic layers are formed on the anode, including one selected from a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a hole injection and transport layer, an electron blocking layer, a light-emitting layer, a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, and an electron transport and injection layer.

[0590] As shown in Table 1 above, the organic light-emitting devices of Experimental Examples 1-1 to 1-24, which use the compound of Chemical Formula 1 of this application to form an electron blocking layer, exhibit superior voltage, efficiency, and / or lifetime characteristics compared to the organic light-emitting devices of Comparative Examples 1-1 to 1-3.

[0591] More specifically, the compound of chemical formula 1 of this application has increased structural stability due to the substitution of deuterium. The terminal benzene ring of the tetraphenyl group is connected to the N atom, thereby regulating the hole migration characteristics of the compound. Since the HOMO energy level is low, the energy barrier between the light-emitting layer and the light-emitting layer is reduced. Therefore, the potential barrier between the light-emitting layer and the hole transport field can be appropriately adjusted, thereby improving the hole injection, hole transport and / or electron blocking characteristics of the organic light-emitting device. Therefore, the organic light-emitting devices of Experimental Examples 1-1 to 1-24 have excellent voltage, efficiency and / or lifetime characteristics.

[0592] Conversely, in Comparative Example 1-1, the organic light-emitting device used compound EB1 to form the electron blocking layer. Compound EB1 differs from the compound of Formula 1 of this application in that it does not contain deuterium. It was confirmed that the organic light-emitting device of Comparative Example 1-1 exhibited decreased voltage, efficiency, and / or lifetime characteristics compared to the organic light-emitting devices of Examples 1-1 to 1-24. In particular, it was confirmed that when compared to the organic light-emitting devices of Examples 1-23 and 1-24, which used compounds 23 and 24 with identical structures except for the presence or absence of deuterium to form the electron blocking layer, the lifetime was reduced by a maximum of approximately 39%.

[0593] Comparative Experimental Examples 1-2 used compound EB2 to form the electron blocking layer in the organic light-emitting devices. Compound EB2 differs from the compound of Chemical Formula 1 of this application in that it does not contain deuterium. It was confirmed that the voltage, efficiency, and / or lifetime characteristics of the organic light-emitting devices in Comparative Experimental Examples 1-2 were decreased compared to those in Experimental Examples 1-1 to 1-24. In particular, it was confirmed that when compared to the organic light-emitting devices in Experimental Examples 1-3 and 1-4, which used compounds 3 and 4 with the same structure except for the presence or absence of deuterium to form the electron blocking layer, the lifetime was reduced by a maximum of approximately 35%.

[0594] The organic light-emitting devices of Comparative Examples 1-3 use compound EB3 to form an electron blocking layer. This compound EB3 is different from the compound of Chemical Formula 1 of this application. The intermediate benzene ring of the tetraphenyl group is connected to the N atom. It can be confirmed that the organic light-emitting devices of Comparative Examples 1-3 have higher driving voltage, lower efficiency and shorter lifespan compared with the organic light-emitting devices of Examples 1-1 to 1-24.

[0595] Experimental Examples 2-1 to 2-24 and Comparative Experimental Examples 2-1 and 2-2

[0596] In Experiment 1-1 above, the electron blocking layer was formed by replacing compound 1 with the compound represented by the above chemical formula EB1, and the hole transport layer was formed by replacing the compound represented by the above chemical formula HT1 with the compound listed in Table 2 below. Otherwise, organic light-emitting devices of Experiment 2-1 to 2-24 and Comparative Experiment 2-1 to 2-2 were fabricated by the same method as in Experiment 1-1 above. The compounds HT2 to HT3 used in the comparative experimental examples are shown below.

[0597]

[0598] An application of 10 mA / cm² was applied to the organic light-emitting devices fabricated in the experimental and comparative experimental examples. 2 When the current was applied, the voltage, efficiency, color coordinates, and lifetime were measured, and the results are shown in Table 2 below. On the other hand, T95 refers to the time (hr) required for the brightness to decrease from the initial brightness (6000 nits) to 95%.

[0599]

[0600] As shown in Table 2 above, the organic light-emitting devices of Experimental Examples 2-1 to 2-24, which use the compound of Chemical Formula 1 of this application to form the hole transport layer, exhibit superior voltage, efficiency, and / or lifetime characteristics compared to the organic light-emitting devices of Comparative Examples 1-1 and 2-1 and 2-2.

[0601] In contrast, the organic light-emitting device of Comparative Example 1-1 uses HT1, a compound not included in the scope of Chemical Formula 1 of this application, to form the hole transport layer. It can be confirmed that the voltage, efficiency, and / or lifetime characteristics are reduced compared to the organic light-emitting devices of Examples 2-1 to 2-24.

[0602] Comparative Example 2-1's organic light-emitting device used compound HT2 to form the hole transport layer. This compound HT2 differs from the compound of Formula 1 in that it does not contain deuterium. It was confirmed that the organic light-emitting device of Comparative Example 2-1 exhibited decreased voltage, efficiency, and / or lifetime characteristics compared to the organic light-emitting devices of Examples 2-1 to 2-24. In particular, it was confirmed that when compared to the organic light-emitting devices of Examples 2-23 and 2-24, which used compounds 23 and 24 with identical structures except for the presence or absence of deuterium to form the hole transport layer, the lifetime was reduced by a maximum of approximately 35%.

[0603] The organic light-emitting device of Comparative Example 2-2 uses compound HT3 to form a hole transport layer. This compound HT3 is different from the compound of Chemical Formula 1 of this application. The intermediate benzene ring of the tetraphenyl group is connected to the N atom. It can be confirmed that the organic light-emitting device of Comparative Example 2-2 has a higher driving voltage, lower efficiency and shorter lifetime compared with the organic light-emitting devices of Examples 2-1 to 2-24.
