Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an organic light-emitting device using a compound having a skeleton in which a plurality of nitrogen-atom-containing heteroaromatic rings are bonded to a benzene ring. [Background technology]

[0002] Research into the development of luminescent materials such as organic electroluminescent elements (organic EL elements) is being actively conducted. Fluorescent materials, phosphorescent materials, and fluorescent materials have long been known as luminescent materials, but fluorescent materials have the problem of low luminous efficiency, and phosphorescent materials contain rare metals, making them expensive and difficult to emit deep blue light. In recent years, delayed fluorescent materials have been developed as luminescent materials that address these issues.

[0003] A delayed fluorescent material is a material that emits fluorescence when it returns from an excited singlet state to a ground state after reverse intersystem crossing from an excited triplet state to an excited singlet state in an excited state. Fluorescence by such a route is observed later than fluorescence from an excited singlet state directly generated from a ground state (normal fluorescence), and is therefore called delayed fluorescence. Here, for example, when a light-emitting compound is excited by carrier injection, the probability of occurrence of an excited singlet state and an excited triplet state is statistically 25%:75%, so there is a limit to the improvement of luminous efficiency only by fluorescence from an excited singlet state directly generated. On the other hand, in a delayed fluorescent material, not only an excited singlet state but also an excited triplet state can be used for fluorescence emission by a route via the above-mentioned reverse intersystem crossing, and therefore a higher luminous efficiency can be obtained than that of a normal fluorescent material.

[0004] Since this principle was clarified, various delayed fluorescent materials have been discovered through various researches. Many of these materials include compounds in which a donor group and an acceptor group are substituted on a benzene ring. For example, a compound has been proposed that has a skeleton in which a carbazol-9-yl group, which is a donor group, and a cyano group and a substituted triazinyl group, which are acceptor groups, are substituted on a benzene ring (see Patent Document 1).

[0005] [Patent Document 1] WO2022 / 270600A1 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] On the other hand, even if a material emits delayed fluorescence, its characteristics are very good and there are no practical problems, so far there has been no material provided. In addition, when used in organic light-emitting devices such as organic electroluminescence devices, it is necessary to devise a way of using it in order to provide an element with excellent performance. For this reason, the improvement of delayed fluorescent materials and the improvement of the performance of organic light-emitting devices have been issues for many years, but solutions to these issues are still in the trial and error stage. Under these circumstances, the present inventors have carried out extensive research with the aim of providing an organic light-emitting device having excellent light-emitting properties.

[0050] An example of a preferred compound group represented by the general formula (1) is given below. [ka]

[0051] When it is intended to use an organic layer containing the compound represented by general formula (1) formed by deposition, for example, the molecular weight of the compound represented by general formula (1) is preferably 2000 or less, more preferably 1600 or less, and even more preferably 1400 or less, and may be, for example, 1300 or less. The lower limit of the molecular weight is the molecular weight of the smallest compound represented by general formula (1). The compound represented by the general formula (1) may be formed into a film by a coating method regardless of the molecular weight. By using the coating method, it is possible to form a film even from a compound with a relatively large molecular weight. The compound represented by the general formula (1) has the advantage that it is easily dissolved in an organic solvent. Therefore, the compound represented by the general formula (1) is easy to apply the coating method to, and is easy to purify to increase the purity.

[0052] It is also conceivable that the present invention can be applied to use a compound containing a plurality of structures represented by general formula (1) in the molecule as a light-emitting material. For example, a polymerizable group may be present in the structure represented by general formula (1) in advance, and the polymer may be polymerized to obtain a polymer, which may be used as a light-emitting material. For example, a monomer containing a polymerizable functional group at any site of general formula (1) may be prepared, and the monomer may be polymerized alone or copolymerized with another monomer to obtain a polymer having a repeating unit, which may be used as a light-emitting material. Alternatively, compounds having a structure represented by general formula (1) may be coupled together to obtain a dimer or trimer, which may be used as a light-emitting material.

[0053] Examples of polymers having a repeating unit containing a structure represented by general formula (1) include polymers containing a structure represented by either of the following two general formulas. [ka]

[0054] In the above general formula, Q represents a group containing a structure represented by general formula (1), L 1 and L 2 represents a linking group. The number of carbon atoms in the linking group is preferably 0 to 20, more preferably 1 to 15, and further preferably 2 to 10. The linking group is -X 11 -L 11 In this case, it is preferable that X 11 represents an oxygen atom or a sulfur atom, and is preferably an oxygen atom. 11 represents a linking group, which is preferably a substituted or unsubstituted alkylene group, or a substituted or unsubstituted arylene group, and more preferably a substituted or unsubstituted alkylene group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, or a substituted or unsubstituted phenylene group.

L 1 and L 2 The linking group represented by the following formula can be bonded to any site of general formula (1) constituting Q. Two or more linking groups may be bonded to one Q to form a crosslinked structure or a network structure.

[0055] Specific structural examples of the repeating unit include structures represented by the following formulas. [ka]

[0056] A polymer having repeating units containing these formulas can be synthesized by introducing a hydroxyl group into any site of general formula (1), reacting the hydroxyl group as a linker with the compound below to introduce a polymerizable group, and polymerizing the polymerizable group. [ka]

[0057] The polymer containing the structure represented by general formula (1) in the molecule may be a polymer consisting of only repeating units having the structure represented by general formula (1), or may be a polymer containing repeating units having other structures. The repeating units having the structure represented by general formula (1) contained in the polymer may be of a single type or of two or more types. Examples of repeating units not having the structure represented by general formula (1) include those derived from monomers used in ordinary copolymerization. For example, examples of repeating units include those derived from monomers having an ethylenically unsaturated bond such as ethylene and styrene.

[0058] The electronic properties of small molecule chemical libraries can be calculated using known ab initio quantum chemical calculations. For example, the Hartree-Fock equations (TD-DFT / B3LYP / 6-31G*) can be solved using time-dependent density functional theory with a family of functions known as 6-31G*, Becke's three-parameter, and Lee-Yang-Parr hybrid functionals as a basis to screen for molecular fragments (moieties) with HOMOs above a certain threshold and LUMOs below a certain threshold. Thus, the donor moiety ("D") can be selected, for example, for its HOMO energy (e.g., ionization potential) of -6.5 eV or greater, and the acceptor moiety ("A") can be selected, for example, for its LUMO energy (e.g., electron affinity) of -0.5 eV or less. The bridging moiety ("B") prevents overlap between the pi-conjugated systems of the donor and acceptor moieties, for example, by providing a strongly conjugated system that can tightly restrict the acceptor and donor moieties to specific conformations. In certain embodiments, the compound library is screened using one or more of the following properties: 1. Emission around a specific wavelength 2. Calculated triplet states above a specific energy level 3. ΔE below a certain value ST value 4. Quantum yield above a certain value 5.HOMO level 6.LUMO Level In one embodiment, the difference between the lowest singlet excited state and the lowest triplet excited state at 77 K (ΔE ST ) is less than about 0.5 eV, less than about 0.4 eV, less than about 0.3 eV, less than about 0.2 eV, or less than about 0.1 eV. In some embodiments, ΔE ST The value is less than about 0.09 eV, less than about 0.08 eV, less than about 0.07 eV, less than about 0.06 eV, less than about 0.05 eV, less than about 0.04 eV, less than about 0.03 eV, less than about 0.02 eV, or less than about 0.01 eV. In certain embodiments, the compounds represented by general formula (1) exhibit a quantum yield of greater than 25%, e.g., about 30%, about 35%, about 40%, about 45%, about 50%, about 55%, about 60%, about 65%, about 70%, about 75%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95% or more.

[0059] [Method for synthesizing the compound represented by general formula (1)] The compound represented by the general formula (1) can be synthesized by combining known reactions. 1 ~R 5 At least one of the above is a non-fused carbazol-9-yl group. For example, a precursor in which the non-fused carbazol-9-yl group site is a fluorine atom is reacted with a non-fused carbazole which may be substituted with a group consisting of a deuterium atom, an alkyl group, and an aryl group, to synthesize a compound of general formula (1) in which the non-fused carbazol-9-yl group has been introduced.

In some embodiments, the electronic device comprises an OLED having an anode, a cathode, and at least one organic layer comprising an emissive layer between the anode and the cathode. In some embodiments, the compositions described herein may be incorporated into various photosensitive or photoactivated devices, such as OLEDs or optoelectronic devices. In some embodiments, the compositions may be useful for facilitating charge or energy transfer within the device and / or as hole transport materials, such as 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 optical detectors, organic photoreceptors, organic field-quench devices (O-FQDs), light-emitting fuel cells (LECs), or organic laser diodes (O-lasers).

[0153] Bulb or Lamp: In some embodiments, the electronic device comprises an OLED comprising an anode, a cathode, and at least one organic layer comprising an emissive layer between the anode and the cathode. In some embodiments, the device includes OLEDs of different colors. In some embodiments, the device includes an array including a combination 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. In some embodiments, the device comprises: a circuit board having a first side having a mounting surface and an opposing second side, the circuit board defining at least one opening; at least one OLED on the mounting surface, the at least one OLED having a light-emitting configuration including an anode, a cathode, and at least one organic layer including a light-emitting layer between the anode and the cathode; a housing for the circuit board; and at least one connector disposed on an end of the housing, the housing and the connector defining a package suitable for attachment to a lighting fixture. In some embodiments, the OLED light comprises a plurality of OLEDs mounted on a circuit board such that light is emitted in a plurality of directions. In some embodiments, some of the light emitted in a first direction is polarized and emitted in a second direction. In some embodiments, a reflector is used to polarize the light emitted in the first direction.

[0154] Display or Screen: In some embodiments, the light-emitting layer of the present invention can be used in a screen or display. In some embodiments, the compounds of the present invention are deposited onto a substrate using processes such as, but not limited to, vacuum evaporation, deposition, vapor deposition, or chemical vapor deposition (CVD). In some embodiments, the substrate is a photoplate structure useful in two-sided etching to provide pixels of unique aspect ratios. The screen (also called a mask) is used in the manufacturing process of an OLED display. The corresponding artwork pattern design allows for the placement of very steep narrow tie bars between pixels in the vertical direction, as well as large wide angled openings in the horizontal direction. This allows for the fine patterning of pixels required for high resolution displays while optimizing chemical vapor deposition onto the TFT backplane. The internal patterning of the pixel allows for the construction of three-dimensional pixel openings of various aspect ratios in the horizontal and vertical directions. Additionally, the use of imaged "stripes" or halftone circles in the pixel area protects etching in certain areas until those particular patterns are undercut and removed from the substrate. At that point, all pixel areas are treated with similar etch rates, but the depth varies with the halftone pattern. Varying the size and spacing of the halftone patterns allows etching with different protection rates within the pixel, allowing for the localized deep etching required to create steep vertical bevels. The preferred material for the deposition mask is Invar. Invar is a metal alloy that is cold rolled into long thin sheets at steel mills. Invar cannot be electrodeposited onto the spin mandrel as a nickel mask. A suitable and low-cost method for forming open areas in the deposition mask is by wet chemical etching. 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 further embodiments, the screen or display pattern is fabricated using plasma etching.

[0155] How the device is manufactured: OLED displays are generally manufactured by forming a large mother panel and then cutting the mother panel into cell panels. Usually, each cell panel on the mother panel is formed by forming a thin film transistor (TFT) having an active layer and source / drain electrodes on a base substrate, applying a planarizing film to the TFT, sequentially forming a pixel electrode, a light-emitting layer, a counter electrode and an encapsulation layer, and then cutting the cell panel from the mother panel. OLED displays are generally manufactured by forming a large mother panel and then cutting the mother panel into cell panels. Usually, each cell panel on the mother panel is formed by forming a thin film transistor (TFT) having an active layer and source / drain electrodes on a base substrate, applying a planarizing film to the TFT, sequentially forming a pixel electrode, a light-emitting layer, a counter electrode and an encapsulation layer, and then cutting the cell panel from the mother panel.

[0156] In another aspect of the invention, there is provided a method for manufacturing an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display, the method comprising: forming a barrier layer on a base substrate of a mother panel; forming a plurality of display units on the barrier layer in units of cell panels; forming an encapsulation layer over each of the display units of the cell panel; and applying an organic film to the interface between the cell panels. In some embodiments, the barrier layer is an inorganic film, for example made of SiNx, and the ends of the barrier layer are covered with an organic film made of polyimide or acrylic. In some embodiments, the organic film helps the mother panel to be cut softly into cell panels. In some embodiments, the thin film transistor (TFT) layer includes a light-emitting layer, a gate electrode, and source / drain electrodes. Each of the plurality of display units may include a thin film transistor (TFT) layer, a planarization film formed on the TFT layer, and a light-emitting unit formed on the planarization film, and the organic film applied to the interface is formed of the same material as the planarization film and is formed at the same time as the planarization film. In some embodiments, the light-emitting unit is connected to the TFT layer by a passivation layer, the planarization film therebetween, and an encapsulation layer that covers and protects the light-emitting unit. In some embodiments of the manufacturing method, the organic film is not connected to the display unit or the encapsulation layer.

[0157] Each of the organic film and the planarization film may include one of polyimide and acrylic. In some embodiments, the barrier layer may be an inorganic film. In some embodiments, the base substrate may be formed of polyimide. The method may further include attaching a carrier substrate formed of a glass material to one surface of the base substrate formed of polyimide prior to forming a barrier layer on the other surface of the base substrate, and separating the carrier substrate from the base substrate prior to cutting along the interface. In some embodiments, the OLED display is a flexible display. In some embodiments, the passivation layer is an organic film disposed on the TFT layer for covering 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 acrylic, as is the organic film formed on the edge of the barrier layer. In some embodiments, the planarization film and the organic film are formed simultaneously during the manufacture of an OLED display. In some embodiments, the organic film may be formed on the edge of the barrier layer, such that a portion of the organic film directly contacts the base substrate, and the remaining portion of the organic film contacts the barrier layer while surrounding the edge of the barrier layer.

[0158] In some embodiments, the light-emitting layer comprises a pixel electrode, a counter electrode, and an organic light-emitting layer disposed between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode, hi some embodiments, the pixel electrode is coupled to a source / drain electrode of a TFT layer. In some embodiments, when a voltage is applied to the pixel electrode through the TFT layer, a suitable voltage is formed between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode, which causes the organic light-emitting layer to emit light, thereby forming an image. Hereinafter, an image-forming unit having a TFT layer and a light-emitting unit is referred to as a display unit. In some embodiments, the encapsulation layer that covers the display units and prevents the penetration of external moisture may be formed into a thin-film encapsulation structure in which organic films and inorganic films are alternately laminated. In some embodiments, the encapsulation layer has a thin-film encapsulation structure in which a plurality of thin films are laminated. In some embodiments, the organic film applied to the interface portion is disposed at an interval with each of the plurality of display units. In some embodiments, the organic film is formed in such a manner that a portion of the organic film directly contacts the base substrate, and the remaining portion of the organic film contacts the barrier layer while surrounding the end of the barrier layer.

[0159] In one embodiment, the OLED display is flexible and uses a flexible base substrate formed of polyimide, hi some embodiments, the base substrate is formed on a carrier substrate formed of a glass material, and the carrier substrate is then separated. In some embodiments, a barrier layer is formed on a surface of the base substrate opposite the carrier substrate. In one embodiment, the barrier layer is patterned according to the size of each cell panel. For example, the base substrate is formed on all surfaces of the mother panel, while the barrier layer is formed according to the size of each cell panel, thereby forming grooves at the interfaces between the barrier layers of the cell panels. Each cell panel can be cut along the grooves.

[0160] In some embodiments, the method further includes a step of cutting along the interface, where a groove is formed in the barrier layer and at least a portion of the organic film is formed in the groove, and the groove does not penetrate the base substrate. In some embodiments, the TFT layer of each cell panel is formed, and a passivation layer, which is an inorganic film, and a planarization film, which is an organic film, are disposed on the TFT layer to cover the TFT layer. At the same time as the planarization film, which is made of, for example, polyimide or acrylic, is formed, the groove of the interface is covered with an organic film, which is made of, for example, polyimide or acrylic. This prevents cracks from occurring when each cell panel is cut along the groove at the interface by having the organic film absorb the impact that occurs. That is, if all the barrier layers are completely exposed without the organic film, when each cell panel is cut along the groove at the interface, the impact that occurs will be transmitted to the barrier layer, thereby increasing the risk of cracks. However, in one embodiment, the groove of the interface between the barrier layers is covered with an organic film to absorb the impact that would otherwise be transmitted to the barrier layer, so that each cell panel can be cut softly and prevent cracks from occurring in the barrier layer. In one embodiment, the organic film and the planarization film covering the groove of the interface are spaced apart from each other. For example, when the organic film and the planarization film are connected to each other as one layer, external moisture may penetrate into the display unit through the planarization film and the remaining part of the organic film, so the organic film and the planarization film are spaced apart from each other so that the organic film is spaced apart from the display unit.

[0161] In some embodiments, the display unit is formed by forming a light-emitting unit, and the encapsulation layer is disposed on the display unit to cover the display unit. Thus, after the mother panel is completely manufactured, the carrier substrate carrying the base substrate is separated from the base substrate. In some embodiments, when a laser beam is irradiated onto the carrier substrate, the carrier substrate is separated from the base substrate due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the carrier substrate and the base substrate. In some embodiments, the mother panel is cut into individual cell panels. In some embodiments, the mother panel is cut along the interface between the cell panels using a cutter. In some embodiments, the grooves at the interface along which the mother panel is cut are covered with an organic film, which absorbs shock during cutting. In some embodiments, the barrier layer is prevented from cracking during cutting. In some embodiments, the methods reduce product defect rates and stabilize product quality. Another embodiment is an OLED display having a barrier layer formed on a base substrate, a display unit formed on the barrier layer, an encapsulation layer formed on the display unit, and an organic film applied to the edges of the barrier layer.
