[0002] Organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) are self-emissive devices that exhibit wide viewing angles, high contrast ratios, short response times, and excellent luminance, drive voltage, and response speed characteristics compared to prior art devices, and produce full-color images.

[0003] OLEDs may include a first electrode disposed on a substrate and a hole-conducting region, an emission layer, an electron-conducting region, and a second electrode stacked on the first electrode. Holes provided by the first electrode can move toward the emission layer through the hole-conducting region, and electrons provided by the second electrode can move toward the emission layer through the electron-conducting region. Carriers, such as holes and electrons, recombine in the emission layer to produce excitons. These excitons transition from an excited state to a ground state, thereby generating light.

[0017] Since the disclosure may be embodied in various forms, embodiments are illustrated in the drawings and described in the detailed description. An effect and characteristic of the disclosure, as well as a method for achieving them, will become apparent in conjunction with the embodiments described with reference to the drawings. However, the disclosure may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein.

[0018] One or more embodiments of the disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those components that are the same or correspond to one another are denoted by the same reference numerals regardless of the figure number, and redundant explanations are omitted.

[0019] An expression used in the singular includes the expression in the plural unless the context clearly indicates a different meaning.

[0020] It is further understood that the terms “comprises” and / or “comprising” as used herein indicate the presence of listed features or elements, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features or elements.

[0021] It is understood that when a layer, region, or component is described as being "on" or "on" another layer, region, or component, it may be formed directly or indirectly on the other layer, region, or component. That is, there may be intervening layers, regions, or components.

[0022] The size of elements in the drawings may be exaggerated for clarity. In other words, while the sizes and thicknesses of components are arbitrarily illustrated in the drawings for clarity, the following embodiments are not limited thereto.

[0023] The expression “lowest energy level of an excited triplet” as used here is calculated as follows: After adding a mixture of CH2Cl2 and each compound (in a concentration of 1*10 -5M) into a quartz cuvette and adding liquid helium (4 K) thereto, a photoluminescence spectrum is measured using a PR650 spectrocolorimeter, and by comparing it with a normal photoluminescence spectrum measured at room temperature, peaks observed only at low temperatures are analyzed for calculation. Alternatively, the lowest energy level of an excited triplet is also calculated as follows: After preparing a PMMA mixture (10 wt%) of each compound and spin-coating the PMMA mixture to obtain a film, a photoluminescence spectrum of the film is measured using a PR650 spectrocolorimeter, and by comparing it with a normal photoluminescence spectrum measured at room temperature, peaks observed only at low temperatures are analyzed for calculation.

[0024] The expression “lowest energy level of an excited singlet” as used here is calculated as follows: After a mixture of CH2Cl2 and each compound (in a concentration of 1*10 -5 M) was placed in a quartz cuvette, a photoluminescence spectrum is measured at room temperature using a Hitachi F-4500 fluorescence spectrophotometer for calculation.

[0025] As used herein, the term "an organic layer" refers to a single layer and / or a plurality of layers disposed between an anode and a cathode of an organic light-emitting device. A material contained in "the organic layer" is not limited to an organic material.

[0026] The phrase “(an organic layer) comprises a compound represented by Formula 1” as used herein may include a case where “(an organic layer) comprises a compound of Formula 1 or two or more different compounds of Formula 1”.

[0027] Embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] Fig. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an organic light-emitting device 10 according to an embodiment.

[0029] Related to Fig.1, the organic light-emitting device 10 includes: an anode 110; a cathode 190 facing the anode 110; and an organic layer 150 arranged between the anode 110 and the cathode 190, comprising an emission layer and an auxiliary layer, wherein the emission layer is in direct contact with the auxiliary layer, the emission layer includes a dopant, the auxiliary layer includes a first compound and a second compound, wherein the dopant emits light and both the first compound and the second compound do not emit light, and the dopant, the first compound, and the second compound satisfy equations 1 to 3: T1(D)>T1(C1) S1(D)>S1(C1) S1(C1)>S1(C2) where, in equations 1 to 3, T1(D) is a lowest energy level of an excited triplet of the dopant, T1(C1) is a lowest energy level of an excited triplet of the first compound, S1(D) is a lowest energy level of an excited singlet of the dopant, S1(C1) is a lowest energy level of an excited singlet of the first compound and S1(C2) is a lowest energy level of an excited singlet of the second compound.

[0030] Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram showing a lowest energy level of an excited triplet and a lowest energy level of an excited singlet of an organic light-emitting device according to an embodiment.

[0031] In an organic light-emitting device satisfying Equation 1, some of the triplet excitons generated in the emission layer can be transferred to the auxiliary layer. Therefore, by controlling the concentration of triplet excitons involved in exciton annihilation and quenching, triplet-triplet annihilation and triplet-polaron quenching occurring in the emission layer can be reduced. In this regard, the probability of exciton annihilation is also reduced, thereby improving the lifetime of the organic light-emitting device.

[0032] For an organic light-emitting device that satisfies Equation 2, the satisfaction of Equation 2 refers to the fact that singlet excitons of the first compound can be transferred to the dopant, allowing the emission layer to emit light while the auxiliary layer cannot. This means that the auxiliary layer merely serves to control the concentration of excess triplet excitons in the emission layer, rather than acting as an emission layer. Thus, the dopant emits light, whereas both the first compound and the second compound do not emit light.

[0033] In the organic light-emitting device satisfying Equation 3, after the triplet excitons moving from the dopant to the second compound are transferred to the singlet excitons of the second compound, the energy transfer is triggered again to the first compound or the dopant to compensate for a reduction in efficiency caused by the diffusion of triplet excitons, thereby improving the efficiency of the organic light-emitting device.

[0034] Furthermore, by incorporating the dopant into a layer other than a layer containing the first compound and the second compound, the efficiency of the organic light-emitting device can be improved. When the dopant, the first compound, and the second compound are uniformly distributed in the same layer, it is difficult to trigger a change in distribution within an emission zone due to the diffusion phenomenon in the same layer. Furthermore, the efficiency of the organic light-emitting device may rapidly decrease due to the occurrence of exciton-polaron quenching and exciton-exciton annihilation. Therefore, by incorporating the dopant into a layer other than a layer containing the first compound, the efficiency of the organic light-emitting device can be effectively improved.

[0035] In order to achieve the effects described above, the emission layer should be in direct contact with the auxiliary layer and no other layer should be arranged between the emission layer and the auxiliary layer.

[0036] For example, the dopant can emit blue phosphorescence with a maximum emission wavelength of 440 nm to 480 nm.

[0037] In general, in the case of blue phosphorescence, compared to red phosphorescence or green phosphorescence, the probability of exciton annihilation caused by triplet-triplet annihilation and triplet-polaron quenching is high, and thus the lifetime of the organic light-emitting device emitting blue phosphorescence is significantly short. Nevertheless, the organic light-emitting device of the present disclosure exhibits an improved lifetime even when emitting blue phosphorescence.

[0038] The organic light-emitting device may further satisfy Equation 4, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto: T1(C1)>T1(C2) where, in equation 4, T1(C1) is a lowest energy level of an excited triplet of the first compound and T1(C2) is a lowest energy level of an excited triplet of the second compound.

[0039] In the organic light-emitting device further satisfying Equation 4, all of the triplet excitons moving from the dopant to the first compound can be transferred to the second compound or the dopant, thereby improving the efficiency of the organic light-emitting device.

[0040] In one embodiment, the auxiliary layer can be arranged between the anode and the emission layer. In this embodiment, an emission zone (or a recombination zone) of the organic light-emitting device can be inclined toward the anode.

[0041] When the auxiliary layer is disposed between the anode and the emission layer, the emission layer may further include a host, and the dopant and the host may further satisfy Equation 5, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto: HOMO(D)>HOMO(H) where, in equation 5, HOMO(D) is an energy level of the highest occupied orbital of a molecule of the dopant and HOMO(H) is a highest energy level of the host.

[0042] In this case, the hole mobility of the host can be significantly large compared to the electron mobility of the host, or the hole mobility of the dopant can be significantly large compared to the electron mobility of the dopant.

[0043] In this regard, the dopant may be a heteroleptic iridium compound or a homoleptic iridium compound, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0044] In one or more embodiments, the auxiliary layer may be arranged between the cathode and the emission layer. In this embodiment, an emission zone (or a recombination zone) of the organic light-emitting device may be inclined toward the cathode.

[0045] When the auxiliary layer is disposed between the cathode and the emission layer, the emission layer may further include a host, and the dopant and the host may further satisfy Equation 6, but embodiments of the following disclosure are not limited thereto: HOMO(D) <HOMO(H) where, in equation 6, HOMO(D) is an energy level of the highest occupied orbital of a molecule of the dopant and HOMO(H) is an energy level of the highest occupied orbital of a host molecule.

[0046] In this case, the electron mobility of the host can be significantly large compared to the hole mobility of the host, or the electron mobility of the dopant can be significantly large compared to the hole mobility of the dopant.

[0047] In this regard, the dopant may be an iridium compound or a platinum compound, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0048] For example, a weight ratio of the first compound to the second compound may be 10:90 to 5:95, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0049] For example, the dopant may contain a transition metal. In this respect, the dopant may emit phosphorescence through the transition of a transition metal ligand.
