Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an organic alloy for an organic optoelectronic device, an organic optoelectronic device, and a display device. [Background technology]

[0002] An organic optoelectric diode is a device that can convert electrical energy and light energy into each other.

[0003] Organic optoelectronic devices can be broadly divided into two types based on their operating principles: one is a photoelectric device in which excitons formed by light energy are separated into electrons and holes, and the electrons and holes are transferred to different electrodes to generate electrical energy, and the other is a light-emitting device in which voltage or current is supplied to electrodes to generate light energy from electrical energy.

[0004] Examples of organic optoelectronic devices include organic photoelectric devices, organic light emitting devices, organic solar cells, and organic photo conductor drums.

[0005] Among these, organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) have been attracting much attention in recent years due to the increasing demand for flat panel display devices. Organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) are devices that convert electrical energy into light by applying current to an organic light emitting material, and typically have a structure in which an organic layer is inserted between an anode and a cathode. Here, the organic layer may include an emitting layer and, optionally, an auxiliary layer. The auxiliary layer may include, for example, at least one layer selected from a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, and a hole blocking layer to improve the efficiency and safety of the organic light emitting device.

[0006] The performance of an organic light-emitting device is greatly influenced by the properties of the organic layer, and particularly by the organic material contained in the organic layer.

[0007] In particular, in order for the organic light emitting device to be applied to large flat panel displays, it is necessary to develop an organic material that can enhance the mobility of holes and electrons and at the same time, improve electrochemical stability.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0016] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The following detailed description of the present invention is given by way of example only, and the present invention is not limited thereto but is defined only by the scope of the claims.

[0021] The alkyl group may be a C1 to C30 alkyl group. More specifically, the alkyl group may be a C1 to C20 alkyl group or a C1 to C10 alkyl group. For example, a C1 to C4 alkyl group means an alkyl group containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain, and is selected from the group consisting of methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, and t-butyl.

[0022] Specific examples of the alkyl group include a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, an isopropyl group, a butyl group, an isobutyl group, a t-butyl group, a pentyl group, a hexyl group, a cyclopropyl group, a cyclobutyl group, a cyclopentyl group, and a cyclohexyl group.

[0023] As used herein, the term "aryl group" refers to a substituent in which all elements of the cyclic substituent have p-orbitals and these p-orbitals form conjugation, including monocyclic, polycyclic, or fused-ring polycyclic (i.e., rings that share adjacent pairs of carbon atoms) functional groups.

[0024] As used herein, the term "heteroaryl group" refers to an aryl group containing 1 to 3 heteroatoms selected from the group consisting of N, O, S, P, and Si, and the remainder being carbon. When the heteroaryl group is a fused ring, each ring may contain 1 to 3 heteroatoms.

[0026] In this specification, the term "hole characteristic" refers to the ability to donate electrons to form holes when an electric field is applied, and refers to the ability to have conduction characteristics depending on the HOMO level, facilitating the injection of holes formed in the anode into the light-emitting layer, the movement of holes formed in the light-emitting layer to the anode, and the movement of holes in the light-emitting layer.

[0027] The electronic properties refer to the ability to receive electrons when an electric field is applied, and refer to the properties of having conduction properties according to the LUMO level, facilitating the injection of electrons formed in the cathode into the light-emitting layer, and the movement of electrons formed in the light-emitting layer to the cathode and within the light-emitting layer.

[0028] Hereinafter, an organic alloy for an organic optoelectronic device according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described.

[0029] The organic alloy is a result of pre-treatment of two or more single organic compounds, which may have chemical interactions between the single organic compounds. The pre-treatment may be, but is not limited to, a heat treatment process such as heating and sublimation followed by cooling.

[0030] When the two or more single organic compounds include a first organic compound and a second organic compound, the first organic compound and the second organic compound may have the same evaporation temperature or an evaporation temperature within a predetermined range for pretreatment. Here, the evaporation temperature is defined as the evaporation temperature at which the first organic compound and the second organic compound are evaporated to about 10°C. -3 This refers to the temperature at which deposition can be performed at a specified rate on a substrate in a high vacuum of less than Torr. For example, -3 It may be the average temperature of the source measured when thermally evaporating to a thickness of about 300 nm to 800 nm at a rate of about 0.5 to 2 Å / sec in a high vacuum of less than Torr.

[0031] For example, about 10 -3 At or below 100 torr, the difference in evaporation temperature between the first organic compound and the second organic compound may be about 20°C or less. Within the above range, the difference in evaporation temperature between the first organic compound and the second organic compound may be about 0°C to 10°C, and may be about 0°C to 5°C.

[0032] As described above, the organic alloy has unique properties that differ from those of the individual organic compounds and simple mixtures in which no chemical interaction exists between the individual organic compounds due to the chemical interactions between the two or more individual organic compounds. Here, a simple mixture refers to a mixture of the individual organic compounds that is simply physically mixed without any pretreatment. That is, when the two or more individual organic compounds include a first organic compound and a second organic compound, a simple mixture of the first organic compound and the second organic compound exhibits the properties of the first organic compound, the second organic compound, or a combination thereof. However, an organic alloy of the first organic compound and the second organic compound may have unique properties that differ from those of the first organic compound, the second organic compound, or a simple mixture thereof.

[0033] As an example, the emission wavelength of the organic alloy may be different from the emission wavelengths of the first organic compound, the second organic compound, and simple mixtures thereof.

[0034] The organic alloy can emit new energy and light due to a new energy bandgap between the high HOMO energy level and the low LUMO energy level of the two materials, which is created by the intermolecular electron transfer system (intermolecular donor-acceptor system) between the first organic compound and the second organic compound. The band gap may be between the LUMO energy level of the first organic compound and the HOMO energy level of the second organic compound, or between the LUMO energy level of the second organic compound and the HOMO energy level of the first organic compound. Conversely, a simple mixture of the first and second organic compounds may have either a band gap between the LUMO energy and HOMO energy of the first organic compound or a band gap between the LUMO energy and HOMO energy of the second organic compound. In this case, the organic alloy may have a band gap smaller or larger than those of the first organic compound, the second organic compound, and the simple mixture thereof. Therefore, the emission wavelength of the organic alloy may be different from those of the first organic compound, the second organic compound, and the simple mixture thereof.

[0035] The maximum emission wavelength (λ max ) can be shifted by about 20 nm or more from the maximum emission wavelength of a simple mixture of the first organic compound and the second organic compound, for example, can be shifted by about 20 nm or more to longer wavelengths.

[0036] Additionally, the color of the organic alloy may be different from the color of the first organic compound, the second organic compound, and the simple mixture thereof.

[0037] The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the organic alloy may be different from the glass transition temperatures (Tg) of the first organic compound, the second organic compound, and the simple mixture thereof. The crystallization temperature (Tc) of the organic alloy may be different from the crystallization temperatures of the first organic compound, the second organic compound, and the simple mixture thereof. The melting temperature (Tm) of the organic alloy may be different from the melting temperatures of the first organic compound, the second organic compound, and the simple mixture thereof. The glass transition temperature (Tg), the crystallization temperature (Tc), and the melting temperature (Tm) indicate thermodynamic properties specific to molecules, and substances with different glass transition temperatures (Tg), crystallization temperatures (Tc), and melting temperatures (Tm) can be considered different substances.

[0038] The thermodynamic values ​​of the organic alloy, such as the glass transition temperature (Tg), crystallization temperature (Tc), and melting temperature (Tm), may be intrinsic values ​​or may be substantially constant within an error range. The error range may vary depending on the measurement conditions, but may be, for example, about ±5°C, or even about ±2°C. This differs from a simple mixture of a first organic compound and a second organic compound, which does not have intrinsic thermodynamic values.

[0039] The organic alloy can be pretreated in various ways, for example, by liquefying or vaporizing a first organic compound and a second organic compound by heat-treating them at a temperature above the evaporation temperature, and then solidifying the heat-treated compounds by cooling them. The first organic compound and the second organic compound may be in a molten liquid phase or a vaporized gas phase at the evaporation temperature, and the pretreated organic alloy may be in a solid mass or powder form. In one example, the organic alloy obtained in a solid mass form may be further subjected to an additional step of physically pulverizing it using a mixer or the like.

[0040] The organic alloy is a result of the pretreatment as described above, and can be supplied using a single source during thin film formation, thereby simplifying the process by eliminating the process control steps required when supplying two or more materials from separate sources.

[0041] In addition, since the organic alloy is a product obtained by pretreatment as described above, two or more kinds of single organic compounds may be supplied from separate supply sources, or two or more kinds of single organic compounds may be supplied from separate supply sources. This ensures uniformity and consistency of the deposited material compared to when a simple mixture of the above is supplied from a single source. Therefore, when forming multiple thin films in successive steps, thin films having substantially the same ratio of components can be continuously produced, thereby improving the reproducibility and reliability of the thin films.

[0042] As described above, the first organic compound and the second organic compound are not particularly limited as long as they have an evaporation temperature that allows pretreatment at a predetermined temperature. For example, a compound with strong electronic properties and a compound with strong hole properties can be used to improve the mobility of electrons and holes. For example, the first organic compound may be a compound with relatively strong electronic properties, and the second organic compound may be a compound with relatively strong hole properties. An organic alloy of the first organic compound with relatively strong electronic properties and the second organic compound with relatively strong hole properties may have bipolar properties.

[0043] The first organic compound is a compound having relatively strong electronic properties, and may be, for example, a compound represented by the following Chemical Formula 1:

[0044] [ka]

[0045] In the above Chemical Formula 1, Each Z is independently N or CR a and At least one of Z is N; R 1 ~R 10 and R a are each independently hydrogen, deuterium, a substituted or unsubstituted C1 to C10 alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C12 aryl group, or a combination thereof; In the formula 1, the total number of 6-membered rings substituted with triphenylene groups is 6 or less; L is a substituted or unsubstituted phenylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted biphenylene group, or a substituted or unsubstituted terphenylene group; n1 to n3 are each independently 0 or 1, and n1+n2+n3≧1.

[0046] Here, the six-membered ring substituted on the triphenylene group refers to all six-membered rings directly or indirectly linked to the triphenylene group, and includes six-membered rings consisting of carbon atoms, nitrogen atoms, or a combination thereof.

[0047] The first organic compound may be represented by, for example, the following Chemical Formula 1-I or Chemical Formula 1-II depending on the bonding position of the triphenylene group.

[0048] [ka]

[0049] In the above chemical formula 1-I or 1-II, Z, R 1 ~R 10 , L and n1 to n3 are defined as above.

[0050] The first organic compound comprises a triphenylene group and at least one nitrogen-containing heteroaryl group.

[0051] The first organic compound may have a structure that is easy to accept electrons when an electric field is applied by including at least one nitrogen-containing ring, thereby reducing the driving voltage of an organic optoelectronic device using the first organic compound.

[0052] In addition, the first organic compound contains both a triphenylene structure that is prone to receiving holes and a nitrogen-containing ring portion that is prone to receiving electrons, thereby forming a bipolar structure and appropriately balancing the flow of holes and electrons, thereby improving the efficiency of an organic optoelectronic device using the first organic compound.

[0053] The first organic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 has at least one kink structure centered around an arylene group and / or a heteroarylene group.

[0054] The twisted structure refers to a structure in which the connecting portion between two arylene groups and / or heteroarylene groups does not form a linear structure. For example, in the case of phenylene, orthophenylene (o-phenylene) and metaphenylene (m-phenylene), which do not form a linear connecting portion, have the twisted structure, while paraphenylene (p-phenylene), which forms a linear connecting portion, does not have the twisted structure.

[0055] In Chemical Formula 1, the twisted structure may be formed around the linking group (L) and / or the arylene group / heteroarylene group.

[0056] For example, when n1 in the above formula 1 is 0, that is, in a structure without a linking group (L), a twisted structure can be formed around the arylene group / heteroarylene group, and the compound may be, for example, a compound represented by the following formula 1a or 1b.

[0057] [ka]

[0058] In the above chemical formula 1a or 1b, Z, R 1 ~R 10 and L is defined as above.

[0059] For example, when n1 in Formula 1 is 1, a twisted structure can be formed around the linking group (L), and L may be, for example, a substituted or unsubstituted phenylene group having a twisted structure, a substituted or unsubstituted biphenylene group having a twisted structure, or a substituted or unsubstituted terphenylene group having a twisted structure. L may be, for example, one selected from the substituted or unsubstituted groups listed in Group 1 below.

[0060] [ka]

[0061] In Group 1, R 15 ~R 42 are each independently hydrogen, deuterium, a substituted or unsubstituted C1-C10 alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C3-C30 cycloalkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2-C30 heterocycloalkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C6-C30 aryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2-C30 heteroaryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted amine group, a substituted or unsubstituted C6-C30 arylamine group, a substituted or unsubstituted C6-C30 heteroarylamine group, a substituted or unsubstituted C1-C30 alkoxy group, ha The alkyl group may be a halogen group, a halogen-containing group, a cyano group, a hydroxyl group, an amino group, a nitro group, a carboxyl group, a ferrocenyl group, or a combination thereof.

[0062] The first organic compound preferably has at least two twisted structures, and may have, for example, two to four twisted structures.

[0063] The first organic compound has the twisted structure described above, which allows for appropriate charge localization and effective control of the flow of the conjugated system, thereby improving the lifetime of an organic optoelectronic device to which the composition is applied.

[0064] Also, in chemical formula 1, R 1 ~R 6 That is, by limiting the total number of 6-membered rings contained in the substituents substituted on the triphenylene group to 6 or less, it is possible to reduce the phenomenon of the compound being thermally decomposed due to high temperatures during the deposition process.

[0065] In addition, the first organic compound can effectively prevent stacking of compounds due to the structure, thereby reducing process stability and lowering deposition temperature. This stacking prevention effect can be further enhanced when the first organic compound includes the linking group (L) of Formula 1.

[0066] The first organic compound may be represented by, for example, any one of the following chemical formulas 1c to 1t.

[0067] [ka]

[0068] [ka]

[0069] [ka]

[0070] In the above chemical formulas 1c to 1t, Z and R 1 ~R 10 are as described above, R 60 ~R 77 are each independently hydrogen, deuterium, a substituted or unsubstituted C1-C10 alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C3-C30 cycloalkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2-C30 heterocycloalkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C6-C30 aryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2-C30 heteroaryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted amine group, a substituted or unsubstituted C6-C30 arylamine group, a substituted or unsubstituted C6-C30 heteroarylamine group, a substituted or unsubstituted C1-C30 alkoxy group, a halogen group, a halogen-containing group, a cyano group, a hydroxyl group, an amino group, a nitro group, a carboxyl group, a ferrocenyl group, or a combination thereof.

[0071] The first organic compound may be, for example, a compound listed in Group 2 below, but is not limited thereto.

[0072] [ka]

[0073] [ka]

[0074] [ka]

[0075] [ka]

[0076] [ka]

[0077] [ka]

[0078] The first organic compound may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0079] The second organic compound is a compound having relatively strong hole characteristics, and may be, for example, a compound represented by the following Chemical Formula 2:

[0080] [ka]

[0081] In the above Chemical Formula 2, Y 1 and Y 2 each independently represents a single bond, a substituted or unsubstituted C1 to C20 alkylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C20 alkenylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C30 arylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C30 heteroarylene group, or a combination thereof; Ar 1 and Ar 2is a substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C30 aryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C30 heteroaryl group, or a combination thereof; R 11 ~R 13 and R 43 ~R 44 are each independently hydrogen, deuterium, a substituted or unsubstituted C1 to C20 alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C50 aryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C50 heteroaryl group, or a combination thereof.

[0082] The second organic compound is a compound having bipolar properties with relatively strong hole characteristics, and forms an organic alloy with the first organic compound to enhance charge mobility and safety, thereby significantly improving luminous efficiency and lifespan characteristics.

[0083] Ar of Formula 2 1 and Ar 2 are substituents having hole or electron properties and may each independently be, for example, a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted biphenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted terphenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted naphthyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted anthracenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted carbazolyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted benzofuranyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted benzothiophenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted fluorenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted pyridyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted pyrimidinyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted pyrazinyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted triazinyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted triphenylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted dibenzofuranyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted dibenzothiophenyl group, or a combination thereof.

[0084] Ar of Formula 2 1 and Ar 2 At least one of the groups may be, for example, a substituent having electronic properties, for example, a substituent represented by the following chemical formula A:

[0085] [ka]

[0086] In the above chemical formula A, Each Z is independently N or CR b and A1 and A2 are each independently a substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C30 aryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C30 heteroaryl group, or a combination thereof; At least one of Z, A1, and A2 contains N; a and b each independently represent 0 or 1.

[0087] The substituent represented by the chemical formula A may be, for example, one of the functional groups listed in Group 3 below.

[0088] [ka]

[0089] In addition, Ar in the above-mentioned Chemical Formula 2 1 and Ar 2 At least one of the groups may be, for example, a substituent having hole properties, such as a substituent listed in Group 4 below.

[0090] [ka]

[0091] The compound represented by Chemical Formula 2 may be selected from the compounds listed in Group 5 below. may be selected, but is not limited to this.

[0092] [ka]

[0093] [ka]

[0094] [ka]

[0095] [ka]

[0096] [ka]

[0097] [ka]

[0098] [ka]

[0099] The second organic compound may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0100] The first organic compound and the second organic compound can be combined in various ways to prepare various organic alloys. For example, the first organic compound may be any of the compounds listed in Group A below. The second organic compound may be at least one of the compounds listed in Group B below, but is not limited thereto.

[0101] [ka]

[0102] As described above, the first organic compound is a compound with relatively strong electronic properties, and the second organic compound is a compound with relatively strong hole properties. By pre-treating these to form an organic alloy, the mobility of electrons and holes can be increased, and the luminous efficiency can be significantly improved, compared to when the first compound or the second compound is used alone.

[0103] In devices incorporating a material with biased electron or hole characteristics into the light-emitting layer, carrier recombination occurs at the interface between the light-emitting layer and the electron or hole transport layer, resulting in relatively frequent exciton formation. As a result, the interaction between molecular excitons in the light-emitting layer and charges at the transport layer interface causes a rapid drop in efficiency (roll-off), which also leads to a rapid drop in luminescence lifetime. To solve this problem, an organic alloy of a first organic compound and a second organic compound can be introduced to create a device that balances the carriers in the light-emitting layer so that the light-emitting region is not biased toward either the electron or hole transport layer. This can significantly improve roll-off and lifetime.

[0104] The organic alloy can be obtained by using the first organic compound and the second organic compound in a molar ratio of, for example, about 1:10 to 10:1. In one example, the organic alloy can be obtained by using the first organic compound and the second organic compound in a molar ratio of about 1:4 to 4:1. It can be obtained by using about a 1:1 molar ratio.

[0105] By falling within this range, bipolar characteristics can be more effectively realized, and efficiency and lifespan can be improved at the same time.

[0106] The organic alloy may be obtained by pretreating the first organic compound and the second organic compound described above, or may be pretreated by further including one or more organic compounds other than the first organic compound and the second organic compound described above.

[0108] For example, the organic alloy can be used as a light-emitting material for an organic optoelectronic device. In this case, the light-emitting material can use the organic alloy as a host and further include at least one dopant. The dopant can be a red, green, or blue dopant, such as a phosphorescent dopant.

[0109] The dopant is a material that emits light when mixed in a small amount into the organic alloy, and may generally be a material such as a metal complex that emits light by multiple excitation, which excites the dopant to a triplet state or higher. The dopant may be, for example, an inorganic, organic, or organic-inorganic compound, and may contain one or more dopants.

[0110] Examples of the phosphorescent dopant include organometallic compounds containing Ir, Pt, Os, Ti, Zr, Hf, Eu, Tb, Tm, Fe, Co, Ni, Ru, Rh, Pd, or a combination thereof. The phosphorescent dopant may be, for example, a compound represented by the following chemical formula Z, but is not limited thereto.

[0111] [ka]

[0112] In the chemical formula Z, M is a metal, and L and X are the same or different and are ligands that form a complex compound with M.

[0113] The M may be, for example, Ir, Pt, Os, Ti, Zr, Hf, Eu, Tb, Tm, Fe, Co, Ni, Ru, Rh, Pd, or a combination thereof, and the L and X may be, for example, a bidentate ligand.

The thermodynamic properties of the organic alloys according to Examples 1 and 2 and the organic materials according to Comparative Examples 1 to 5 were confirmed through differential scanning calorimetry, using a DSC1 (manufactured by Mettler-Toledo).

[0173] The results are shown in Tables 3 and 4.

[0185] The change over time in the continuous process was confirmed by sequentially depositing the organic alloys of Examples 1 and 2 and the organic materials of Comparative Examples 3 and 5 on a glass substrate to form multiple thin films, and then determining whether the ratio of the single organic compound in each thin film remained constant. This was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The change over time in the continuous process can be evaluated by determining how consistently the ratio of components constituting the thin film remained constant in the continuous process.
