Description

[Technical field]

[0001] One aspect of the present invention is an organic compound, a light-emitting element, a display module, a lighting module, The present invention relates to a display device, a light-emitting device, an electronic device, a lighting device, and an electronic device. The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned technical fields. The present invention relates to a product, a method, or a manufacturing method. Process, Machine, Manufacture, or Composition of Matter Therefore, the present invention relates to a technique according to one embodiment of the present invention disclosed in the present specification. Fields of application include semiconductor devices, display devices, liquid crystal display devices, light-emitting devices, lighting devices, power storage devices, Examples of the memory device, the imaging device, the driving method thereof, or the manufacturing method thereof are given below. It is possible. [Background technology]

[0002] Electroluminescence (EL) using organic compounds The practical application of light-emitting elements (organic electroluminescence (EL) elements) that utilize the luminescence element is progressing. The basic structure of the device is a pair of electrodes sandwiching an organic compound layer (EL layer) containing a light-emitting material. A voltage is applied to this element to inject carriers, and the recombination energy of the carriers is By utilizing this, light can be emitted from the light-emitting material.

[0003] Since such light-emitting elements are self-emitting, when used as display pixels, they are much more efficient than liquid crystal displays. It has the advantages of being highly visible and not requiring a backlight, and is a flat panel display. In addition, displays using such light-emitting elements are thin and lightweight. Another major advantage is that it can be produced in large quantities. Another feature is its extremely fast response time. It is.

[0004] In addition, since the light-emitting layer of these light-emitting devices can be formed continuously in two dimensions, This can be achieved by using point light sources such as incandescent bulbs and LEDs, or This is a feature that is difficult to obtain with linear light sources such as fluorescent lamps, so it can be used as a surface light source for lighting, etc. It is also highly useful.

[0005] Displays and lighting devices using such light-emitting elements are suitable for use in a variety of electronic devices. However, research and development is ongoing to develop light-emitting devices with better characteristics.

[0006] One of the issues that often comes up when talking about organic EL elements is their low light extraction efficiency. In particular, attenuation due to reflection caused by differences in the refractive indices of adjacent layers reduces the efficiency of the device. In order to reduce this effect, a low refractive index material is used inside the EL layer. A structure has been proposed in which a layer having the following structure is formed (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 1).

[0007] A light emitting device having this configuration has a higher light extraction efficiency and, therefore, It is possible to make a light emitting device with high external quantum efficiency. It is easy to form inside the EL layer without adversely affecting other important properties of the light-emitting device. This is because the low refractive index and the high carrier transport properties are suitable for use in light-emitting devices. This is because there is a trade-off between the reliability and the amount of the organic compound. The carrier transport properties and reliability of the unsaturated bonds are largely due to their existence. This is because organic compounds that have a large amount of them tend to have a high refractive index. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0054] (Embodiment 1) Among organic compounds having carrier transport properties that can be used in organic EL devices, One of the materials with low molecular weight is 1,1-bis-(4-bis(4-methylphenyl)-amino -phenyl)-cyclohexane (abbreviation: TAPC) is known. By using this in the EL layer, it is possible to obtain a light-emitting element that exhibits high external quantum efficiency. It is expected that the use of TAPC will result in a light-emitting device with good external quantum efficiency. However, TAPC has the problem of low heat resistance and is disadvantageous in terms of reliability. I did.

[0055] One method to obtain a highly heat-resistant and reliable hole transport material is the unsaturated carbonization. It is possible to introduce a hydrogen group, particularly a cyclic unsaturated hydrocarbon group, into the molecule.

[0056] On the other hand, in order to obtain a material with a low refractive index, it is necessary to introduce a substituent with a low molecular refraction into the molecule. The substituent is preferably a saturated hydrocarbon group or a cyclic saturated hydrocarbon group. can.

[0057] In addition, the material used as the carrier transport material in the organic EL element has a backbone with high carrier transport properties. It is preferable that the compound has an aromatic amine skeleton.

[0058] Based on the above findings, the present inventors have realized the following by combining these substituents and skeletons: The compound has a small refractive index and can be suitably used as a hole transport material in an organic EL device. We discovered an organic compound.

[0134] When a fluorescent substance is used as a light-emitting material, the host material is a material having an anthracene skeleton. A material having an anthracene skeleton is preferably used as a host material for a fluorescent material. When used in the form of an anthraquinone, it is possible to realize a light-emitting layer having excellent light-emitting efficiency and durability. Since many materials having a Cene skeleton have a deep HOMO level, one embodiment of the present invention is preferably applied to The host material may be a dianthracene skeleton material. Substances with a phenylanthracene skeleton, especially a 9,10-diphenylanthracene skeleton, It is preferable because it is chemically stable.

In particular, the host material is preferably dibenzocarbazo When the carbazole skeleton is included, the HOMO is shallower by about 0.1 eV than that of carbazole, and holes can enter. This is preferable because it is easy to form the hole transport layer, has excellent hole transport properties, and has high heat resistance. Further, preferred host materials include those having a 9,10-diphenylanthracene skeleton and Carbazole skeleton (or benzocarbazole skeleton or dibenzocarbazole skeleton) From the viewpoint of the hole injection and transport properties, the carbazole skeleton is Alternatively, a benzofluorene skeleton or a dibenzofluorene skeleton may be used.

This is a good choice.

[0135] The host material may be a mixture of a plurality of substances. When used, a material having an electron transporting property and a material having a hole transporting property may be mixed. It is preferable to mix a material having an electron transporting property with a material having a hole transporting property. In this way, the transport properties of the light-emitting layer 113 can be easily adjusted, and the recombination region can be easily controlled. The ratio of the content of the material having a hole transporting property to the content of the material having an electron transporting property is The ratio of the material having electron transport properties to the material having electron transport properties may be 1:9 to 9:1.

The luminescence of the exciplex is such that it overlaps with the wavelength of the lowest energy absorption band of the By selecting such a combination, energy transfer becomes smooth and light emission can be obtained efficiently. In addition, the use of this configuration is also preferable because the driving voltage can be reduced.

[0137] The electron transport layer 114 is a layer containing a substance having an electron transport property. The above-mentioned substances having an electron transporting property that can be used as the host material are also usable. can be used.

The above-mentioned alkali metal or alkaline earth metal fluoride is in a microcrystalline state in the organic compound having the above-mentioned structure. It is also possible to use a layer containing a concentration of 50 wt % or more of the refractive index of the layer. Since the layer has a low refractive index, it is possible to provide a light-emitting device with better external quantum efficiency. become.

[0140] In addition, a charge generating layer 116 may be provided instead of the electron injection layer 115 (FIG. 1(B)). When a potential is applied to the charge generating layer 116, holes are generated in the layer in contact with the cathode side of the layer, and electrons are generated in the layer in contact with the anode side of the layer. The charge generating layer 116 is a layer that can inject electrons into the layer adjacent to the charge generating layer. At least a P-type layer 117 is included. The P-type layer 117 constitutes the hole injection layer 111 described above. It is preferable to form the P-type layer 1 using the composite material mentioned above as a material that can be used. 17 is a film containing the above-mentioned acceptor material and a hole transport material as a material constituting a composite material. By applying a potential to the P-type layer 117, Electrons are injected into the transport layer 114 and holes are injected into the second electrode 102, which is the cathode, and the light-emitting element operates. In addition, since the organic compound according to one embodiment of the present invention has a low refractive index, P By using this for the mold layer 117, a light emitting device with good external quantum efficiency can be obtained.

[0141] In addition to the P-type layer 117, the charge generating layer 116 also includes an electron relay layer 118 and an electron injection buffer layer 119. Preferably, one or both of layers 119 are provided.

[0142] The electron relay layer 118 contains at least a substance having an electron transport property, and the electron injection buffer layer 1 The function of the junction is to prevent the interaction between the P-type layer 117 and the P-type layer 119 and to transfer electrons smoothly. The LUMO level of the substance having electron transport properties contained in the relay layer 118 is The LUMO level of the acceptor in the electron transport layer 114 and the charge generation layer 116 It is preferable that the LUMO level of the electron-relay layer 11 is between the LUMO level of the material contained in the adjacent layer. Specific energy levels of the LUMO levels of the electron transporting materials used in 8 is set to -5.0 eV or more, preferably -5.0 eV or more and -3.0 eV or less. The electron-transporting material used in the electron relay layer 118 is a phthalocyanine-based It is preferred to use materials or metal complexes having metal-oxygen bonds and aromatic ligands.

[0143] The electron injection buffer layer 119 may include an element selected from the group consisting of alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, rare earth metals, and These compounds (alkali metal compounds (oxides such as lithium oxide, halides, lithium carbonate, etc.) (including carbonates such as tium and cesium carbonate), alkaline earth metal compounds (oxides, halogens, etc.) compounds of rare earth metals (including oxides, halides, carbonates) or compounds of rare earth metals (including oxides, halides, carbonates) It is possible to use a material with high electron injection properties such as fluorine.

[0144] The electron injection buffer layer 119 is formed by containing a substance having an electron transporting property and a donor substance. In the case where the donor material is an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, or a rare earth metal, and their compounds (alkali metal compounds (oxides such as lithium oxide, halides , including carbonates such as lithium carbonate and cesium carbonate), alkaline earth metal compounds (oxides, compounds of rare earth metals (including oxides, halides, carbonates, etc.) In addition to tetrathianaphthalene (TTN), nickelocene, decamethine, An organic compound such as nickelocene can also be used. The electron transport layer 114 is preferably formed of the same material as that of the electron transport layer 114 described above. This can be done.

[0145] The material for forming the second electrode 102 is preferably one having a small work function (specifically, 3.8 eV or less). Bottom) Metals, alloys, electrically conductive compounds, and mixtures thereof can be used. Specific examples of such cathode materials include alkali metals such as lithium (Li) and cesium (Cs). Lithium metals, as well as magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), strontium (Sr), etc. Elements belonging to Group 1 or 2 of the Periodic Table of the Elements and alloys containing these elements (MgAg, Rare earth metals such as AlLi), europium (Eu), ytterbium (Yb) and the like However, when the second electrode 102 and the electron transport layer are provided with By providing an electron injection layer, the material can be used in a variety of applications, regardless of the magnitude of the work function. Various conductive materials such as indium oxide-tin oxide containing silicon oxide or silicon oxide are used as the second These conductive materials can be used as the electrode 102. It is possible to form the film using dry methods such as the inkjet method, spin coating method, etc. It may also be formed by a wet method using a sol-gel method, or by using a paste of a metal material. Alternatively, the layer may be formed by a wet method.

[0146] The EL layer 103 can be formed by a variety of methods, including dry and wet methods. For example, vacuum deposition, gravure printing, offset printing, screen printing, etc. A printing method, an ink jet method, a spin coating method or the like may also be used.

[0147] Moreover, the above-mentioned electrodes or layers may be formed using different film formation methods.

[0148] The structure of the layers provided between the first electrode 101 and the second electrode 102 is the same as that described above. However, the light emitting region and the metal used in the electrode or carrier injection layer are not limited to the above. The first electrode 101 and the second electrode 102 are arranged so as to suppress quenching caused by the It is preferable to provide a light-emitting region where holes and electrons recombine at a location away from 02.

[0149] In addition, recombination in the hole transport layer or electron transport layer in contact with the light emitting layer 113, particularly in the light emitting layer 113 The carrier transport layer close to the region suppresses the energy transfer from excitons generated in the light-emitting layer. Therefore, the band gap is determined by the luminescent material constituting the luminescent layer or the luminescent material contained in the luminescent layer. It is preferable that the material is made of a substance having a larger band gap than the material. I wish.

[0150] Next, we developed a light-emitting device having a structure in which multiple light-emitting units are stacked (a stacked type device, a tandem type device, etc.). The embodiment of the light-emitting device (also referred to as a "light-emitting device") will be described with reference to FIG. 1(C). A light-emitting element having a plurality of light-emitting units between the light-emitting element and the light-emitting device. 1C). The device is a light-emitting element having a plurality of light-emitting units, and is the light-emitting element shown in FIG. 1(A) or FIG. 1(B). An optical element can be said to be a light-emitting element having one light-emitting unit.

The first and second light-emitting units 512 may have the same configuration or different configurations.

[0152] When a voltage is applied between the anode 501 and the cathode 502, the charge generating layer 513 emits light from one of the light emitting units. The luminescent unit has a function of injecting electrons into one luminescent unit and injecting holes into the other luminescent unit. In 1(C), when a voltage is applied so that the anode potential is higher than the cathode potential, In this case, the charge generating layer 513 injects electrons into the first light emitting unit 511 and Any material capable of injecting holes into the gate 512 may be used.

[0153] The charge generation layer 513 is formed to have the same structure as the charge generation layer 116 described in FIG. The composite material of an organic compound and a metal oxide has the following advantages: Since the light-emitting unit has excellent characteristics, it can be driven at low voltage and low current. When the anode side surface of the charge generating layer 513 contacts the charge generating layer 513, the charge generating layer 513 becomes the light emitting unit. Since the EL element can also function as a hole injection layer for the light-emitting unit, the light-emitting unit does not need to have a hole injection layer. Both are good.

[0154] In addition, when the charge generating layer 513 is provided with the electron injection buffer layer 119, the electron injection buffer Since the anode layer 119 plays the role of an electron injection layer in the light-emitting unit on the anode side, the light-emitting The unit does not necessarily need to have an electron injection layer.

[0155] Although the light emitting element having two light emitting units has been described in FIG. 1C, a light emitting element having three or more light emitting units may be used. The present invention can be similarly applied to a light-emitting element in which light-emitting units are stacked. In the case of the light-emitting element according to the embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of light-emitting units are disposed between a pair of electrodes, and a charge generating layer 513 is disposed between the pair of electrodes. By separating the layers, it is possible to achieve high brightness light emission while keeping the current density low. It is possible to realize a long-life element. It is also possible to realize a light-emitting device that can be driven at a low voltage and consumes low power. It is possible.

[0156] In addition, by making the emission color of each light-emitting unit different, For example, a light-emitting element having two light-emitting units can be In this case, the first light-emitting unit emits red and green light, and the second light-emitting unit emits blue light. In this way, it is possible to obtain a light-emitting element that emits white light as a whole.

[0157] In addition, the above-mentioned EL layer 103, the first light-emitting unit 511, the second light-emitting unit 512, and Each layer such as the charge generating layer and the electrodes can be formed by, for example, a deposition method (including a vacuum deposition method), a droplet discharge method (including an inkjet method), etc. It can be formed by using methods such as ink jet printing, coating, and gravure printing. They can be used in a wide range of applications, including low molecular weight materials, medium molecular weight materials (including oligomers and dendrimers), and or a polymeric material.

A transparent substrate 1 on which a colored layer and a black matrix are provided. The colored layer and the black matrix are fixed to the substrate 1001. The substrate 1035 is covered with an overcoat layer 1036. The light-emitting layer is a layer where light does not pass through the colored layers and goes out to the outside, and the light passes through the colored layers of each color and goes out to the outside. The light that does not pass through the colored layer is white, and the light that passes through the colored layer is red, green, or blue.

[0191] In the light emitting device described above, the light is taken in toward the substrate 1001 on which the FET is formed. The light emitting device has a bottom emission structure, but the light is taken in from the sealing substrate 1031 side. The light emitting device may have a structure in which the light is emitted from the top (top emission type). A cross-sectional view of a light-emitting device is shown in FIG. 4. In this case, a substrate 1001 that does not transmit light is used. The bottom electrode is not connected to the anode of the FET and the light-emitting element until the connection electrode is fabricated. The third interlayer insulating film 1037 is then formed on the electrode 1. The third insulating film is formed to cover the 022. This insulating film may also serve as a flattening film. The insulating film 1037 may be formed using the same material as the second interlayer insulating film, or other known materials. This can be done.

[0192] The first electrodes 1024W, 1024R, 1024G, and 1024B of the light-emitting element are anodes here. However, it may be a cathode. Also, in the case of a top emission type light emitting device as shown in FIG. In the case of the above-mentioned arrangement, it is preferable that the first electrode is a reflective electrode. The EL layer 103 has the same structure as that described in the second embodiment, and emits white light. The element structure is designed to obtain such a structure.

[0193] In the top emission structure shown in Figure 4, the colored layers (red colored layer 1034R, green colored layer The sealing is performed by using a sealing substrate 1031 provided with a blue color layer 1034G and a blue color layer 1034B.

However, the present invention is not limited to this. A full color display may be achieved using four colors, yellow, green, and blue, or three colors, red, green, and blue.

[0194] In a top emission type light emitting device, a microcavity structure can be suitably applied. In the light-emitting device having a microcavity structure, the first electrode is a reflective electrode and the second electrode is a semi-transparent electrode. The semi-transparent and semi-reflective electrodes are separated by a small amount. It has at least an EL layer, and at least a light-emitting layer which serves as a light-emitting region.

[0195] The reflectance of the reflective electrode for visible light is 40% to 100%, preferably 70% to 100%. %, and its resistivity is 1×10 -2 The film is assumed to be less than Ωcm. The semi-reflective electrode has a visible light reflectance of 20% to 80%, preferably 40% to 70%. , and its resistivity is 1×10 -2 It is assumed that the film has a resistance of less than Ωcm.

[0196] The light emitted from the light-emitting layer included in the EL layer is reflected by the reflective electrode and the semi-transparent and semi-reflective electrode. The light is reflected and resonates.

[0197] The light-emitting element can be formed by changing the thickness of the transparent conductive film, the composite material, the carrier transport material, etc. By changing the optical distance between the reflective electrode and the semi-transmissive / semi-reflective electrode, Between the reflective electrode and the semi-transmissive / semi-reflective electrode, the light of the resonating wavelength is strengthened and the light of the non-resonating wavelength is strengthened. It is possible to attenuate light of wavelengths.

[0198] The light reflected by the reflective electrode and returned (first reflected light) is semi-transmitted from the light emitting layer. The light that is directly incident on the semi-reflective electrode (first incident light) interferes greatly with the reflective electrode. The optical path length of the light-emitting layer is (2n-1)λ / 4 (where n is a natural number greater than or equal to 1, and λ is the amplified It is preferable to adjust the optical distance to a wavelength that is suitable for the first emission. By matching the phase of the reflected light with that of the first incident light, the light emitted from the light-emitting layer can be amplified. do.

For example, the above-mentioned tandem light emitting device may be combined with the above-mentioned structure. A single light-emitting element is provided with a plurality of EL layers sandwiching a charge generating layer, and each EL layer is provided with a single Alternatively, the present invention may be applied to a configuration in which a plurality of light-emitting layers are formed.

[0200] The microcavity structure makes it possible to enhance the emission intensity of a specific wavelength in the forward direction. This allows for low power consumption. In the case of a light-emitting device that displays images using a single pixel, the yellow light emission not only improves brightness, but also Since a microcavity structure that matches the wavelength of each color can be applied, it is possible to produce light-emitting devices with excellent characteristics. It can be placed.

[0201] The light-emitting device in this embodiment uses the light-emitting element described in Embodiment 2, and therefore has good Specifically, the light-emitting device according to the embodiment 2 can be obtained. Since the element has high light emission efficiency, it is possible to provide a light emitting device with low power consumption.

As the side walls of the partition layer 954 approach the substrate surface, the distance between one side wall and the other side wall decreases. In other words, the cross section of the partition layer 954 in the short side direction is a trapezoid. The bottom side (the side that faces the same direction as the surface direction of the insulating layer 953 and is in contact with the insulating layer 953) is higher than the upper side (the side that faces in the same direction as the surface direction of the insulating layer 953 and does not contact the insulating layer 953). In this way, by providing the partition layer 954, the defect of the light-emitting element caused by static electricity or the like can be prevented.
