Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a compound, a material for an organic electroluminescence device, an organic electroluminescence device, and an electronic device including the electronic device. [Background technology]

[0002] Generally, an organic electroluminescence element (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "organic EL element") is composed of an anode, a cathode, and an organic layer sandwiched between the anode and cathode. When a voltage is applied between the two electrodes, electrons are injected from the cathode side and holes are injected from the anode side into the light-emitting region, where they recombine to generate an excited state, and light is emitted when the excited state returns to the ground state. Therefore, in order to obtain a high-performance organic EL element, it is important to develop a compound and element structure that efficiently transports electrons or holes to the light-emitting region and facilitates the recombination of electrons and holes.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0016] [Definition] In this specification, hydrogen atoms include isotopes having different numbers of neutrons, namely protium, deuterium, and tritium.

[0017] In the present specification, in a chemical structural formula, a hydrogen atom, i.e., a protium atom, a deuterium atom, or a tritium atom is assumed to be bonded to a possible bonding position that is not explicitly indicated with a symbol such as "R" or "D" representing a deuterium atom.

[0018] In this specification, the number of ring carbon atoms represents the number of carbon atoms among the atoms constituting the ring itself of a compound having a structure in which atoms are bonded in a ring (for example, a monocyclic compound, a condensed ring compound, a bridged compound, a carbocyclic compound, and a heterocyclic compound). When the ring is substituted with a substituent, the carbon contained in the substituent is not included in the number of ring carbon atoms. The "number of ring carbon atoms" described below is the same unless otherwise specified. For example, a benzene ring has 6 ring carbon atoms, a naphthalene ring has 10 ring carbon atoms, a pyridine ring has 5 ring carbon atoms, and a furan ring has 4 ring carbon atoms. For example, the number of ring carbon atoms of a 9,9-diphenylfluorenyl group is 13, and the number of ring carbon atoms of a 9,9'-spirobifluorenyl group is 25. In addition, when a benzene ring is substituted with, for example, an alkyl group as a substituent, the carbon number of the alkyl group is not included in the number of ring carbon atoms of the benzene ring. Therefore, the number of ring carbon atoms of the benzene ring substituted with an alkyl group is 6. In addition, when a naphthalene ring is substituted with, for example, an alkyl group as a substituent, the carbon number of the alkyl group is not included in the number of ring carbon atoms of the naphthalene ring. Therefore, the number of ring carbon atoms of the naphthalene ring substituted with an alkyl group is 10.

[0019] In this specification, the number of ring atoms refers to the number of atoms constituting the ring itself of a compound (e.g., a monocyclic compound, a fused ring compound, a bridged compound, a carbocyclic compound, and a heterocyclic compound) having a structure in which atoms are bonded in a ring (e.g., a monocyclic compound, a fused ring compound, and a ring assembly). The number of ring atoms does not include atoms that do not constitute a ring (e.g., a hydrogen atom that terminates the bond of an atom constituting a ring) or atoms contained in a substituent when the ring is substituted with a substituent. The "number of ring atoms" described below is the same unless otherwise specified. For example, the number of ring atoms of a pyridine ring is 6, the number of ring atoms of a quinazoline ring is 10, and the number of ring atoms of a furan ring is 5. For example, the number of hydrogen atoms or atoms constituting a substituent bonded to a pyridine ring is not included in the number of pyridine ring atoms. Therefore, the number of ring atoms of a pyridine ring to which a hydrogen atom or a substituent is bonded is 6. For example, hydrogen atoms bonded to carbon atoms of a quinazoline ring or atoms constituting a substituent are not included in the number of ring atoms of the quinazoline ring. Therefore, the number of ring atoms of a quinazoline ring to which a hydrogen atom or a substituent is bonded is 10.

[0020] In the present specification, the "number of carbon atoms XX to YY" in the expression "a substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group having carbon atoms XX to YY" represents the number of carbon atoms when the ZZ group is unsubstituted, and does not include the number of carbon atoms of the substituent when the ZZ group is substituted. Here, "YY" is larger than "XX", "XX" means an integer of 1 or more, and "YY" means an integer of 2 or more.

[0021] In the present specification, the "number of atoms XX to YY" in the expression "a substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group having the number of atoms XX to YY" represents the number of atoms when the ZZ group is unsubstituted, and does not include the number of atoms of the substituent when the ZZ group is substituted. Here, "YY" is larger than "XX", "XX" means an integer of 1 or more, and "YY" means an integer of 2 or more.

[0022] In this specification, the term "unsubstituted ZZ group" refers to the case where a "substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" is an "unsubstituted ZZ group", and the term "substituted ZZ group" refers to the case where a "substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" is a "substituted ZZ group". In the present specification, "unsubstituted" in the case of "a substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" means that a hydrogen atom in the ZZ group is not replaced with a substituent. The hydrogen atom in the "unsubstituted ZZ group" is a protium atom, a deuterium atom, or a tritium atom. In the present specification, "substituted" in the case of "a substituted or unsubstituted ZZ group" means that one or more hydrogen atoms in the ZZ group are replaced with a substituent. Similarly, "substituted" in the case of "a BB group substituted with an AA group" means that one or more hydrogen atoms in the BB group are replaced with an AA group.

[0101] The above is an explanation of "the substituents described in this specification".

[0102] - "When bonded to form a ring" In this specification, the phrase "one or more of a set consisting of two or more adjacent groups bond to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted monocycle, bond to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted fused ring, or are not bonded to each other" means the case where "one or more of a set consisting of two or more adjacent groups bond to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted monocycle", the case where "one or more of a set consisting of two or more adjacent groups bond to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted fused ring", and the case where "one or more of a set consisting of two or more adjacent groups are not bonded to each other". In this specification, the cases where "one or more of a set of two or more adjacent rings are bonded to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted monocyclic ring" and "one or more of a set of two or more adjacent rings are bonded to each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted condensed ring" (hereinafter, these cases may be collectively referred to as "a case where they are bonded to form a ring") will be explained below. The case of an anthracene compound represented by the following general formula (TEMP-103), in which the mother skeleton is an anthracene ring, will be explained as an example.

[0103] [ka]

[0104] For example, R921 ~R 930 In the case where "one or more pairs of adjacent two or more groups are bonded to each other to form a ring," one pair of adjacent two groups is R 921 and R 922 With R 922 and R 923 With R 923 and R 924 With R 924 and R 930 With R 930 and R 925 With R 925 and R 926 With R 926 and R 927 With R 927 and R 928 With R 928 and R 929 and R 929 and R 921 It is paired with .

[0105] The above "one or more pairs" means that two or more pairs of adjacent two or more groups may simultaneously form a ring. For example, R 921 and R 922 and are bonded to ring Q A At the same time, R 925 and R 926 and are bonded to ring Q B When the above general formula (TEMP-103) is formed, the anthracene compound represented by the general formula (TEMP-104) is represented by the following general formula (TEMP-104).

[0106] [ka]

[0107] The case where a "set of two or more adjacent units" forms a ring includes not only the case where a set of two adjacent units is bonded as in the previous example, but also the case where a set of three or more adjacent units is bonded. For example, R 921 and R 922 and are bonded to ring Q A and R 922 and R923 and are bonded to ring Q C The three adjacent (R 921 , R 922 and R 923 In this case, the anthracene compound represented by the general formula (TEMP-103) is represented by the following general formula (TEMP-105). In the following general formula (TEMP-105), the ring Q A and Ring Q C is R 922 Share.

[0108] [ka]

[0109] The "monocyclic ring" or "condensed ring" formed may be a saturated or unsaturated ring as the structure of only the ring formed. Even when "one of the pairs of adjacent two" forms a "monocyclic ring" or a "condensed ring", the "monocyclic ring" or the "condensed ring" may form a saturated or unsaturated ring. For example, the ring Q formed in the general formula (TEMP-104) may be a saturated or unsaturated ring. A and Ring Q B are "monocyclic" or "condensed rings". In addition, the ring Q formed in the general formula (TEMP-105) A , and ring Q C is a "fused ring". The ring Q in the above general formula (TEMP-105) A and Kan Q C That is, Ring Q A and Kan Q C The ring Q in the general formula (TEMP-104) is condensed to form a condensed ring. A If is a benzene ring, then ring Q A The ring Q in the general formula (TEMP-104) is a monocyclic ring. A If is a naphthalene ring, then ring Q A is a fused ring.

[0110] The term "unsaturated ring" refers to an aromatic hydrocarbon ring or an aromatic heterocyclic ring. The term "saturated ring" refers to an aliphatic hydrocarbon ring or a non-aromatic heterocyclic ring. Specific examples of the aromatic hydrocarbon ring include structures in which the groups given as specific examples in the specific example group G1 are terminated with a hydrogen atom. Specific examples of the aromatic heterocycle include structures in which the aromatic heterocyclic groups exemplified as specific examples in the specific example group G2 are terminated with a hydrogen atom. Specific examples of the aliphatic hydrocarbon ring include structures in which the groups given as specific examples in the specific example group G6 are terminated with a hydrogen atom. The term "form a ring" means that a ring is formed only with a plurality of atoms of the parent skeleton, or with a plurality of atoms of the parent skeleton and one or more optional elements. For example, R 921 and R 922 and are bonded together to form a ring Q A is R 921 The carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton to which R is bonded 922 It means a ring formed by the carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton to which R is bonded and one or more arbitrary elements. 921 and R 922 Todekan Q A In the case where R 921 The carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton to which R is bonded 922 When the carbon atom of the anthracene skeleton to which R is bonded forms a monocyclic unsaturated ring with four carbon atoms, R 921 and R 922 The ring formed by this is a benzene ring.

[0111] Here, unless otherwise specified in the present specification, the "arbitrary element" is preferably at least one element selected from the group consisting of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur. In the arbitrary element (for example, in the case of a carbon element or a nitrogen element), a bond that does not form a ring may be terminated with a hydrogen atom or the like, or may be substituted with an "arbitrary substituent" described below. When an arbitrary element other than a carbon element is included, the ring formed is a heterocycle. Unless otherwise specified in this specification, the "one or more arbitrary elements" constituting a single ring or a condensed ring is preferably 2 or more and 15 or less, more preferably 3 or more and 12 or less, and even more preferably 3 or more and 5 or less. Unless otherwise specified in this specification, of the "monocyclic ring" and the "condensed ring", the "monocyclic ring" is preferred. Unless otherwise specified in this specification, of the "saturated ring" and the "unsaturated ring", the "unsaturated ring" is preferred. Unless otherwise specified in this specification, a "monocyclic ring" is preferably a benzene ring. Unless otherwise specified in this specification, the "unsaturated ring" is preferably a benzene ring. When "one or more of a set of two or more adjacent rings" "combine with each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted monocyclic ring" or "combine with each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted fused ring", unless otherwise specified in this specification, preferably, one or more of a set of two or more adjacent rings combine with each other to form a substituted or unsubstituted "unsaturated ring" consisting of a plurality of atoms of the parent skeleton and at least one element selected from the group consisting of 1 to 15 carbon elements, nitrogen elements, oxygen elements, and sulfur elements.

[0112] When the above-mentioned "monocyclic ring" or "condensed ring" has a substituent, the substituent is, for example, the "optional substituent" described later.

[0527] Each layer (including any layer) included in one embodiment of the organic EL device according to the present invention and materials other than compound (1) and compound (10) that form each layer will be described below.

[0528] One embodiment of the organic EL device according to the present invention may be a monochromatic light-emitting device of a fluorescent or phosphorescent type, a white-light-emitting device of a fluorescent / phosphorescent hybrid type, a simple type having a single light-emitting unit, or a tandem type having multiple light-emitting units, and is preferably a fluorescent light-emitting device. Here, the term "light-emitting unit" refers to a minimum unit that includes an organic layer, at least one of which is a light-emitting layer, and emits light by recombination of injected holes and electrons.

[0529] For example, the following device configuration can be given as a representative device configuration of a simple type organic EL device. (1) Anode / light-emitting unit / cathode The light-emitting unit may be a multi-layer type having a plurality of phosphorescent or fluorescent light-emitting layers, in which case a spacer layer may be provided between each light-emitting layer to prevent excitons generated in the phosphorescent light-emitting layer from diffusing to the fluorescent light-emitting layer. A typical layer structure of a simple light-emitting unit is shown below. The layers in parentheses are optional. (a) (hole injection layer / ) hole transport layer / fluorescent light-emitting layer / electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer) (b) (hole injection layer / ) hole transport layer / first fluorescent-emitting layer / second fluorescent-emitting layer / electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer) (c) (hole injection layer / ) hole transport layer / phosphorescent emitting layer / space layer / fluorescent emitting layer / electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer) (d) (hole injection layer / ) hole transport layer / first phosphorescent emitting layer / second phosphorescent emitting layer / space layer / fluorescent emitting layer / electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer) (e) (hole injection layer / ) hole transport layer / phosphorescent emitting layer / space layer / first fluorescent emitting layer / second fluorescent emitting layer / electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer) (f) (hole injection layer / ) hole transport layer / electron blocking layer / fluorescent emitting layer / electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer) (g) (hole injection layer / ) hole transport layer / exciton blocking layer / fluorescent emitting layer / electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer) (h) (hole injection layer / ) first hole transport layer / second hole transport layer / fluorescent light-emitting layer / electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer) (i) (hole injection layer / ) first hole transport layer / second hole transport layer / fluorescent light-emitting layer / first electron transport layer / second electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer) (j) (hole injection layer / ) hole transport layer / fluorescent light-emitting layer / hole blocking layer / electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer) (k) (hole injection layer / ) hole transport layer / fluorescent emitting layer / exciton blocking layer / electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer) (l) (hole injection layer / ) first hole transport layer / second hole transport layer / first fluorescent light-emitting layer / second fluorescent light-emitting layer / first electron transport layer / second electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer) (m) (hole injection layer / ) first hole transport layer / second hole transport layer / third hole transport layer / first fluorescent emitting layer / second fluorescent emitting layer / first electron transport layer / second electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer) (n) (hole injection layer / ) first hole transport layer / second hole transport layer / third hole transport layer / fluorescent light-emitting layer / first electron transport layer / second electron transport layer ( / electron injection layer)

[0530] The phosphorescent or fluorescent emitting layers may each emit light of a different color. Specifically, the light emitting unit (f) may have a layer structure such as (hole injection layer / ) hole transport layer / first phosphorescent emitting layer (red light emission) / second phosphorescent emitting layer (green light emission) / space layer / fluorescent emitting layer (blue light emission) / electron transport layer. An electron blocking layer may be provided between each light-emitting layer and the hole transport layer or between each spacer layer as needed. Also, a hole blocking layer may be provided between each light-emitting layer and the electron transport layer as needed. By providing an electron blocking layer or a hole blocking layer, electrons or holes can be confined within the light-emitting layer, increasing the probability of charge recombination in the light-emitting layer and improving the light-emitting efficiency.

[0531] Representative device configurations of tandem-type organic EL devices include the following. (2) Anode / first light-emitting unit / intermediate layer / second light-emitting unit / cathode Here, the first light-emitting unit and the second light-emitting unit can be, for example, independently selected from the light-emitting units described above. The intermediate layer is generally also called an intermediate electrode, intermediate conductive layer, charge generating layer, electron extracting layer, connecting layer, or intermediate insulating layer, and can be made of a known material configuration that supplies electrons to the first light-emitting unit and holes to the second light-emitting unit.

[0532] FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing an example of the configuration of an organic EL element according to the present invention. The organic EL element 1 has a substrate 2, an anode 3, a cathode 4, and an emitting unit 10 disposed between the anode 3 and the cathode 4. The emitting unit 10 has an emitting layer 5. A hole transport zone 6 (hole injection layer, hole transport layer, etc.) is provided between the emitting layer 5 and the anode 3, and an electron transport zone 7 (electron injection layer, electron transport layer, etc.) is provided between the emitting layer 5 and the cathode 4. In addition, an electron blocking layer (not shown) may be provided on the anode 3 side of the emitting layer 5, and a hole blocking layer (not shown) may be provided on the cathode 4 side of the emitting layer 5. This allows electrons and holes to be trapped in the emitting layer 5, thereby further increasing the efficiency of generating excitons in the emitting layer 5.

[0533] 2 is a schematic diagram showing another configuration of an organic EL element according to the present invention. The organic EL element 11 has a substrate 2, an anode 3, a cathode 4, and an emitting unit 20 disposed between the anode 3 and the cathode 4. The emitting unit 20 has an emitting layer 5. The hole transport zone disposed between the anode 3 and the emitting layer 5 is formed of a hole injection layer 6a, a first hole transport layer 6b, and a second hole transport layer 6c. The electron transport zone disposed between the emitting layer 5 and the cathode 4 is formed of a first electron transport layer 7a and a second electron transport layer 7b.

[0534] 3 is a schematic diagram showing another configuration of an organic EL element according to the present invention. The organic EL element 12 includes a substrate 2, an anode 3, a cathode 4, and an emitting unit 30 disposed between the anode 3 and the cathode 4. The emitting unit 30 includes a first emitting layer 5a and a second emitting layer 5b. The hole transporting region disposed between the anode 3 and the first emitting layer 5a is formed of a hole injection layer 6a, a first hole transporting layer 6b, and a second hole transporting layer 6c. The electron transporting region disposed between the second emitting layer 5b and the cathode 4 is formed of a first electron transporting layer 7a and a second electron transporting layer 7b.

[0535] In the present invention, a host combined with a fluorescent dopant material (fluorescent light-emitting material) is called a fluorescent host, and a host combined with a phosphorescent dopant material is called a phosphorescent host. The fluorescent host and the phosphorescent host are not distinguished only by their molecular structures. That is, the phosphorescent host means a material that forms a phosphorescent light-emitting layer containing a phosphorescent dopant, and does not mean that it cannot be used as a material that forms a fluorescent light-emitting layer. The same applies to the fluorescent host.

[0536] substrate The substrate is used as a support for the organic EL element. For example, a plate such as glass, quartz, or plastic can be used as the substrate. A flexible substrate can also be used. For example, a plastic substrate made of polycarbonate, polyarylate, polyethersulfone, polypropylene, polyester, polyvinyl fluoride, or polyvinyl chloride can be used as the flexible substrate. An inorganic deposition film can also be used.

[0537] anode For the anode formed on the substrate, it is preferable to use a metal, alloy, electrically conductive compound, or a mixture thereof having a large work function (specifically, 4.0 eV or more). Specific examples include indium oxide-tin oxide (ITO), indium oxide-tin oxide containing silicon or silicon oxide, indium oxide-zinc oxide, indium oxide containing tungsten oxide and zinc oxide, and graphene. Other examples include gold (Au), platinum (Pt), nickel (Ni), tungsten (W), chromium (Cr), molybdenum (Mo), iron (Fe), cobalt (Co), copper (Cu), palladium (Pd), titanium (Ti), or nitrides of the above metals (e.g., titanium nitride).

[0538] These materials are usually formed into a film by a sputtering method. For example, indium oxide-zinc oxide can be formed by a sputtering method using a target in which 1 to 10 wt% of zinc oxide is added to indium oxide, and indium oxide containing tungsten oxide and zinc oxide can be formed by a sputtering method using a target in which 0.5 to 5 wt% of tungsten oxide and 0.1 to 1 wt% of zinc oxide are added to indium oxide. In addition, the film may be formed by a vacuum deposition method, a coating method, an inkjet method, a spin coating method, or the like.

[0539] Hole Transport Band As described above, the organic layer may include a hole transporting zone between the anode and the light emitting layer, the hole transporting zone being composed of a hole injection layer, a hole transporting layer, an electron blocking layer, etc. In one embodiment of the organic EL device according to the present invention, the hole transport zone may include a hole injection layer on the anode side and a hole transport layer on the light emitting layer side, and the hole transport layer may contain a compound represented by formula (1). In one embodiment of the organic EL device according to the present invention, the hole transporting region may contain a compound represented by formula (10). In one embodiment of the organic EL device according to the present invention, the hole transport zone may include a hole injection layer on the anode side and a hole transport layer on the light emitting layer side, and the hole transport layer may contain a compound represented by formula (10).

[0540] The hole injection layer formed in contact with the anode is formed using a material that easily injects holes regardless of the work function of the anode, and therefore materials that are commonly used as electrode materials (e.g., metals, alloys, electrically conductive compounds, and mixtures thereof, and elements belonging to Group 1 or Group 2 of the periodic table) can be used. Materials with small work functions, such as elements belonging to Group 1 or 2 of the periodic table, i.e., alkali metals such as lithium (Li) and cesium (Cs), alkaline earth metals such as magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), and strontium (Sr), and alloys containing these (e.g., MgAg, AlLi), rare earth metals such as europium (Eu), ytterbium (Yb), and alloys containing these, can also be used.

Specific examples of such a cathode material include elements belonging to Group 1 or 2 of the periodic table, i.e., alkali metals such as lithium (Li) and cesium (Cs), alkaline earth metals such as magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), and strontium (Sr), and alloys containing these (e.g., MgAg, AlLi), rare earth metals such as europium (Eu), ytterbium (Yb), and alloys containing these. When an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, or an alloy containing these is used to form a cathode, a vacuum deposition method or a sputtering method can be used. When a silver paste or the like is used, a coating method or an inkjet method can be used. By providing an electron injection layer, the cathode can be formed using various conductive materials, such as Al, Ag, ITO, graphene, indium oxide-tin oxide containing silicon or silicon oxide, regardless of the magnitude of the work function. These conductive materials can be formed into films by a sputtering method, an inkjet method, a spin coating method, or the like.

[0590] Insulation layer In organic EL elements, pixel defects due to leakage and short circuits are likely to occur because an electric field is applied to an ultra-thin film. To prevent this, an insulating layer made of an insulating thin film may be inserted between a pair of electrodes. Examples of materials used for the insulating layer include aluminum oxide, lithium fluoride, lithium oxide, cesium fluoride, cesium oxide, magnesium oxide, magnesium fluoride, calcium oxide, calcium fluoride, aluminum nitride, titanium oxide, silicon oxide, germanium oxide, silicon nitride, boron nitride, molybdenum oxide, ruthenium oxide, vanadium oxide, etc. Mixtures or laminates of these materials may also be used.

[0591] Space Layer The spacer layer is a layer provided between a fluorescent light-emitting layer and a phosphorescent light-emitting layer for the purpose of preventing excitons generated in the phosphorescent light-emitting layer from diffusing into the fluorescent light-emitting layer or for the purpose of adjusting the carrier balance when the fluorescent light-emitting layer and the phosphorescent light-emitting layer are laminated, for example. The spacer layer can also be provided between a plurality of phosphorescent light-emitting layers. Since the spacer layer is provided between the light-emitting layers, it is preferable that the spacer layer is made of a material having both electron transport properties and hole transport properties. In addition, in order to prevent the diffusion of triplet energy in the adjacent phosphorescent light-emitting layer, it is preferable that the triplet energy is 2.6 eV or more. Materials used for the spacer layer include the same materials as those used for the hole transport layer described above.

[0592] blocking layer A blocking layer such as an electron blocking layer, a hole blocking layer, or an exciton blocking layer may be provided adjacent to the light-emitting layer. The electron blocking layer is a layer that prevents electrons from leaking from the light-emitting layer to the hole transport layer, and the hole blocking layer is a layer that prevents holes from leaking from the light-emitting layer to the electron transport layer. The exciton blocking layer has the function of preventing excitons generated in the light-emitting layer from diffusing to surrounding layers and trapping the excitons within the light-emitting layer.

[0593] Each layer of the organic EL element can be formed by a conventionally known deposition method, coating method, etc. For example, the layers can be formed by a conventionally known deposition method such as vacuum deposition method or molecular beam deposition method (MBE method), or a coating method such as dipping method, spin coating method, casting method, bar coating method, or roll coating method using a solution of a compound that forms the layer.

[0594] The thickness of each layer is not particularly limited, but generally, if the thickness is too thin, defects such as pinholes are likely to occur, while if the thickness is too thick, a high driving voltage is required, resulting in poor efficiency. Therefore, the thickness is usually 5 nm to 10 μm, and more preferably 10 nm to 0.2 μm.

[0595] In the organic EL device of the present invention having a hole transport layer of a two-layer structure or a three-layer structure, the total thickness of the first hole transport layer and the second hole transport layer is preferably 30 nm or more and 150 nm or less, more preferably 40 nm or more and 130 nm or less. In one embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the second hole transport layer of the two-layer structure or three-layer structure is preferably 5 nm or more, more preferably 20 nm or more, even more preferably 25 nm or more, particularly preferably 35 nm or more, and is preferably 100 nm or less. In one embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the hole transport layer adjacent to the light-emitting layer is preferably 5 nm or more, more preferably 20 nm or more, even more preferably 25 nm or more, particularly preferably 30 nm or more, and is preferably 100 nm or less. In the organic EL device having a hole transport layer with a two-layer structure or a three-layer structure of the present invention, the ratio of the film thickness D2 of the second hole transport layer to the film thickness D1 of the first hole transport layer is preferably 0.3 < D2 / D1 < 4.0, more preferably 0.5 < D2 / D1 < 3.5, and still more preferably 0.75 < D2 / D1 < 3.0.

[0596] Electronic device The organic EL device can be used in display components such as organic EL panel modules, display devices such as televisions, mobile phones, and personal computers, and electronic devices such as lighting and light-emitting devices for vehicle lamps.

The ITO film thickness was 130 nm. The cleaned glass substrate with the ITO transparent electrode was attached to a substrate holder of a vacuum deposition apparatus. First, the compound HT-1 and the compound HA were co-deposited on the surface on which the transparent electrode was formed so as to cover the transparent electrode, to form a hole injection layer having a thickness of 10 nm. The mass ratio of the compound HT-1 to the compound HA (HT-1:HA) was 90:10. Next, the compound HT-1 was deposited on the hole injection layer to form a first hole transport layer having a thickness of 85 nm. Next, a compound EBL was deposited on the first hole transport layer to form a second hole transport layer having a thickness of 5 nm. Next, on the second hole transport layer, the compound BH-1 (host material) and the compound BD (dopant material) were co-deposited to form a first light emitting layer having a thickness of 10 nm. The mass ratio of the compound BH-1 to the compound BD (BH-1:BD) was 98:2. Next, on the first emitting layer, the compound BH2 (host material) and the compound BD (dopant material) were co-deposited to form a second emitting layer having a thickness of 10 nm. The mass ratio of the compound BH2 to the compound BD (BH2:BD) was 98:2. Next, the compound HBL was evaporated onto the second light-emitting layer to form a first electron transport layer having a thickness of 5 nm. Next, the compounds ET and Liq were co-deposited on the first electron transport layer to form a second electron transport layer having a thickness of 25 nm. The mass ratio of the compounds ET and Liq (ET:Liq) was 50:50. Next, Liq was evaporated onto the second electron transport layer to form an electron injecting electrode having a thickness of 1 nm. Then, metallic Al was evaporated onto this electron injecting electrode to form a metal cathode with a thickness of 80 nm. The layer structure of the organic EL element thus obtained is shown below.
