Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to purely organic molecules (dyes) containing no metal centres of formula A and their use as emitters in OLEDs (organic light emitting diodes) and other optoelectronic components. [Background technology]
[0002] Recently, in the display technology field, the technology based on OLEDs (organic light-emitting diodes) has been established and the first commercial products based on them are appearing. Besides screen technology, OLEDs are also suitable for flat lighting technology.
[0003] Such devices are generally realized by a layer structure mainly composed of organic materials. For a better understanding, a simplified structure is exemplarily shown in FIG. 1. The key element of such devices is the light-emitting layer, in which the molecules that emit light are generally contained in a matrix. In said layer, negative charge carriers (electrons) and positive charge carriers (holes) meet and recombine to form so-called excitons. The energy contained in the excitons is released by the emitter in the form of light, which is called electroluminescence. An overview of the functioning of OLEDs is given, for example, in Top. Curr. Chem., 2004, 241, 1, H. Yersin and in "Highly Efficient OLEDs with Phosphorescent Materials", H Yersin, Wiley-VCH, Weinheim, Germany, 2008. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0004] Since the first report on organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) (Tang et al. Appl. Phys. Lett. 1987, 51, 913), the technology has been continuously developed, especially in the field of emitter materials. The first materials based purely on organic molecules could convert up to 25% of the excitons into light, based on spin statistics, but the use of phosphorescent compounds avoids this fundamental problem, but theoretically all excitons can be converted into light. However, said materials have drawbacks, especially with regard to the cost and stability of the materials used.
[0005] For triplet emitters suitable for triplet harvesting, transition metal complexes are usually used, in which metals are selected from the third row of transition metals. These are mainly very expensive noble metals such as iridium, platinum or gold. (In this connection, see also Top. Curr. Chem., 2004, 241, 1, by H. Yersin, and Phys. Rev. B 1999, 60, 14422, by MA Baldo, DF O'Brien, ME Thompson, SR Forrest). [Means for solving the problem]
[0006] Surprisingly, the present invention, using organic molecules of formula A (dyes, emitter molecules), can significantly ameliorate or eliminate the aforementioned problems.
[0007] The organic molecules according to the invention comprise a central base unit in the form of a π-conjugated system (pi-conjugated system), i.e. an aromatic (e.g. heteroaromatic or aromatic) substituted with a functional group (donor) with electron-donating properties and with a functional group (acceptor) with electron-withdrawing properties. Both groups are located on adjacent atoms of the central base unit, i.e. ortho-positioned to each other. Due to the ortho-positioning of such groups (donor and acceptor), they must rotate relative to each other and thus be orthogonal to each other, thereby electronically separating them. Such separation can be understood, for example, with a quantum mechanical calculation of the HOMO and LUMO. The two boundary orbitals must therefore not overlap or only show a minimal overlap. The pi-conjugated system of the central base unit may be mainly part of the HOMO or LUMO.
[0008] Besides such groups (donor and acceptor), there are no other groups with an electronic influence on the pi-conjugated system (central base unit). Further substituents which are permissible are, for example, alkyl groups or other groups which have a solubility effect.
[0009] The present invention provides an organic molecule consisting of or having the structure of Formula A, which may be used in optoelectronic devices. [ka] ···Chemical formula A In formula A, each letter represents the following: (Het)Ar is a conjugated organic group selected from the group consisting of unsubstituted or substituted aromatics, heteroaromatics, and conjugated double bonds fixed by cis-trans isomerization; D is a chemically attached donor group having electron donating properties, and A is a chemically bonded acceptor group having electron-accepting properties, where A and D are bonded to immediately adjacent atoms of the conjugated organic group (Het)Ar.
